Cafe Musungu?
'Musungu' in Bemba (the tribal language of the Bemba tribe - a people group indigenous to the nation of Zambia) means "white boy." I just got back from Zambia (it was my 11th trip) and was called this over and over again by the kids...hence the blog name.

Very funny! "Musungu belela" means a pretentious white person.
thanks...pretentious white boys need blogs too.
Umusungu doesnt mean white boy but means a white person...
you're right osz...i'm just using a little linguistic license for the sake of poking fun at myself. the real point of the blog is to raise some awareness about the wonderful people of zambia, africa, and the incredible challenges they are facing. please let me know what you think of the content of the posts when i build them out.
Very Funny Lex! But the blog is Cafe Musungu, not Musungu belela!!
And as far as I know a man who went 11 times in Zambia to help the needy and who says Zambian people are wonderful - such a man is not pretentious
