Courtney's adventures in travel, healthy food, and lifestyle. . .
Question of the day: What is this the name of this animal?
Extra credit question: What was it doing flying (literally) around my house, terrorizing my cat and dog and then taking up semi-permanent residence in my bathroom?
These are the questions that need answers.
No internet since Thursday morning (yes, it is Monday) so hopefully I can get those other World Cup posts up this week… if Simon doesn´t come back again. Yes, this guy´s name is Simon. For now.
That is all.
Hi, I’m Courtney, a California girl with a passion for food, for healthy living, and for travel. This blog was created to chronicle my adventures in food, fitness, and fun, all over the world. I just finished up with two years in the Peace Corps in Mozambique, Africa and am currently eating and running my way through San Francisco!
I’ve spent the last few days surrounded by entirely too many cookies. It’s funny, I feel like I have a limitless sweet tooth, but when I get to the point that eating another cookie sounds disgusting, I know I probably passed my limit.

a wombat? k now i need to goodle a wombat haha just to see if i am TOTALLY off! haha
nope not a wombat! LOL
hey but wombats are TOTALLY cute too, just like this fellow <3
Believe me darling, I would be psyched if it was a wombat
Is that a flying squirrel? Or a lemur? He is kind of cute…
Court, looks like you’ve got a spotted genet coming to visit! At least, that’s the closest thing I could find after searching for “catlike animals of mozambique” on Google!
DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER!!!! I cannot believe you solved the puzzle! Apparently they can actually be domesticated as pets and are rising in popularity…
You can’t believe I was able to find something on the internet? And here I thought you knew me better… =)
I was actually thinking about if it could be domesticated – seems like a cool animal. Want to bring me one when you come back?
Oh my goodness! I have no idea what animal that is…but I gotta say, he’s kind of cute!
A lemur? It’s adorable whatever it is!
Yikes!! He’s super cute, even though he’s a pesky little fellow! And I would’ve guessed a lemur or some sort of African flying squirrel…but my knowledge of African species is pretty awful.
I was so proud to find out that it was a large spotted Genet (http://itech.pjc.edu/sctag/LS_GENET/Index.htm). Then I realized one of your other friends already discovered the mystery! I hope he/she doesn’t eat Simba! I feel like you’ve seen more Moz wildlife than I have at this point!
