The name Claire comes from a Latin expression meaning "brilliant." Well, I'm not one to argue with that but naming a blog after myself seemed a BIT too conceited. Instead, I chose "African Chiku." Chiku is pronounced "CHEE-koo" and is a common name amongst African children, meaning "chatterer." This summer, I am traveling to Tanzania on a National Geographic photography trip for three weeks and we are required to maintain a blog. When naming my blog, I discovered a title that not only fits the experience but my own personality as well. Ask anyone I know and they'll claim I love to talk. What about? Anything. Nothing. Whatever, whenever and wherever. I am an African Chiku.
