My project is now complete, I have 2 nights left in Malawi. Today I will attend an African Music festival and visit the Museum of Malawi, tomorrow back to the capital Lilongwe for last minute work in the WUSC office and a flight to Johannesburg. This has been an exceptional experience and I'm so glad I had the opportunity and made it a priority.
Monday I'm off to Kruger National Park, specifically Sabi Sands to view the Big 5 and decompress for a few days, I look forward to sharing my stories and pics with all of you at home. Photo uploading has been a challenge due to connections, so my blog will continue once in Canada for your viewing pleasure.
They say that Malawi is the Warm Heart of Africa and everything I've seen lives up to that!!!

Hi Karen. I am SO looking forward to your picture updates.
ReplyDeleteTanzania has long been among my bucket-list bullets and reading your escapades in Malawi only fuels it further (...Malawi being THAT close) :)
In talking about your 1st-time tries, among them 'nsima' - I learned that a co-worker/friend of mine grew up with exactly that! she said it was delicious and I now look forward to trying some (altho she laughed when I told her about your 'fried guppies').
Anyhow, thank you for sharing with us. It's been really interesting and yes, we should learn to count our blessings more here. We just don't really know how good we have it until we live through an eye-opener like you have.
Have a good trip back!
Hey :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear all about it! I think we should schedule a story time meeting. Amazing experience... one you will never forget. Enjoy the rest of your time there and see you soon.
Karen,
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing your days with us. Looking forward to hearing them in detail. Enjoy your time off and safe travels back to Canada.
