The area of Tanzania where Koyati's village is located is up in the north, near the Serengeti district, which borders on Kenya to the north of it. The local big city is Arusha (Dar es Salaam is way south). Koyati's big sister — only nine or ten at the time (he was around six years old) is sent to Arusha to go 'live with a family member.' His mother simply put her on a bus, and she was gone. Koyati never forgave her.
