Malawi Here We Come...Again

As they say every cloud has a silver lining, and despite Matt heading back home Alena had returned back to Africa, much to my delight, and thus we set off from Dar es Salaam headed back to Malawi. Having done this journey before I thought I knew what to expect, but nothing could have prepared...

A Birthday to Remember in Malawi

If I am honest I wasn't really looking forward to my birthday, worrying myself that it could be somewhat of a let down being away from home and without a familiar setting. But, as it turns out, I needn't have worried as it was one of the best birthdays I can remember. Matt had arrived two...

The Other Side of the Lake

During my time in Nkhata Bay I have met a host of people full of excitement upon completing their PADI Open Water Diving courses, and so I decided it was time for me to take the plunge and see what all the fuss was about. My only previous diving experience came in Hawaii when I was fifteen,...

The Wild Goat Chase

By now I have learnt that the best laid plans in Africa are susceptible to being disrupted at the last minute, although when I was struck down with a throat infection I could not have wished for a better change in plans. Out went diving followed by a mini cycle tour, and in its place came a...

The Week From Hell - Part Two

No sooner had I recovered from the shock of coming within a high ranking government official's phone call from being deported than my bad luck continued, this time in the form of malaria. I had, earlier in my trip, survived one malaria scare, although this time I was not as fortunate. I did...

The Week From Hell - Part One

Before embarking on this trip I had, given that I would be in Africa for at least a year, already accepted that at some stage or other I would be the victim of theft, I would catch malaria and would more than likely have at least one incident with the authorities. However, I didn't figure...

The Mzungu Express

Ever since arriving in Malawi I had been toying with the idea of buying a local bicycle as a means of transport, as well as offering me another medium for fitness. And with the most expensive African bicycle costing a touch under $100 I couldn't resist, and so I am now the proud owner of an...

Weclome to the Village

Having been on the move for the best part of three months my journey through Africa has dropped down a few gears since arriving in Malawi, as I always knew it would. The journey from Lusaka to Lilongwe was interesting to say the least, and it was with a great sense of relief that I made it...
