They are everywhere in the area: the Waka supermarkets. Our campus alone has several of them. In the beginning of the year, another Waka just opened its doors down the road from our campus. To date, it’s the biggest supermarket in town – a real asset around here. Now, we don’t have to make the laborious trip to the city anymore, when we need butter or the likes. They even have cheese – an absolute rarity in these parts. Never before has cheese or butter been sold in this town, which means it’s a definite step up from when I first arrived here!
