About this listen

 When most foreigners travel to Somalia, they usually have armed security and bullet proof cars. Lakshmi, along with her friend Khadija, did something few tourists ever do---they traveled overland across the whole country and stayed with a local family in the capital city, Mogadishu. They planned to just stay for a week but ended up enjoying it so much that they stayed for over a month---until they wound up detained and deported.

In this episode, Lakshmi and Khadija will share stories they've never told before from their adventures in Somalia and talk about a side of Mogadishu that is rarely shown in the media.
