Yup, I'm two months in!!! Not a lot of news really, just same old!! Oh but on the way back from the internet cafe last week we saw a pack of wild hyenas by the side of the road!! Our driver drove right off the road to get up close to them! They're pretty scary things and it's a bit worrying knowing they're so near our house... But apparently the...

When you think about it, we have already done more than half our trip so, in essence we are already on the way home... or the home stretch. I did not think about it like this but I rather miss home actually. Well after we had breakfast and while we are all working on our blogs Josh got the news of the week, no it is the news of the month no actu...

Teaching has been going really well, we have finished lesson 3 now and onto our last week and a half of teaching which is a SCARY thought! We are giving out all the asnwers to the ...

The Lockwood's and we share an apartment-type accommodation at the Ufulu Lodge. It's very comfortable. Water pressure is the one of the finest features of this place...along with a pleasant and uplifting atmosphere. We had not previously met the Scott and Collette Lockwood, but after less than a day feel like we've known them for a long time. Be...

These past few days have been very trying for me. I have decided to spare everyone the gory details, but I have never in my life felt more lost or scared. I have also never felt more blessed and protected. Due to some miscommunication I will not be staying at the Farmers Club in Lilongwe instead I will head back to Blantyre today. There are posi...

hey there peeps! here's another random update on our travels. i am finding it kind of funny to add this to the blog when i've had way more eventful and exciting, thought provoking experiences, but well, you get what you pay for and this blog be free, so read it and weep :) we're in lilongwe, home to the rails developers at baobab health. we got ...

Bussing across Tanzania was tiring and uneventful. We took a day to recover in Mbeya where we bought a ticket to the Malawian border from one of the bus companies in the, as usual, hectic bus terminal. Hindsight being what it is, the details of this purchase are a bit of an embarrassing account. We asked a few people in and around the various bu...

After two long drives we were ready to cross the border into Malawi, which means Madonna's Orphanage (boom! boom!). That morning, one of the stoners (the female of the group) had trouble putting her tent down. By some weird, although if you met them, not surprising twist of fate her mother was doing the same trip with a different company. They w...

The scenery between Mzuzu and Lilongwe was quite interesting. The whole of Malawi is really green which is quite bizarre since they only get rain for a month or so around January. There is a lot of forestry along the route and some interesting rock formations. We arrived in Lilongwe at around 8ish and the taxi driver took us to the bus station t...
