“We need the possibility of escape as surely as we need hope; without it the life of the cities would drive all men into crime or drugs or psychoanalysis.”
Edward Abbey, “Desert Solitaire”
It’s common for retired school buses to be used as public transport. Picture three adults with luggage, baskets or chickens – crammed into a seat made for two children. I love it.
What is your transportation preference when traveling? Rent a car? Take public transport? Taxis? I prefer buses or taxis for the local experience. Plus, I’m much more comfortable with someone else driving.
Eight people, one van, two weeks.
Traveling light is not just more convenient for you, it’s more convenient for the others who might be sharing your transportation. And it’s especially convenient for the gracious soul whose job it is to pack the van.
Thank you, Luzu! Our faithful guide and friend in Malawi.
Should you sample the local cuisine?
Usually I’m all for it.
In this case, I passed.
But I do love the presentation here — notice the organization of smallest to largest, 10 mice per stick. I appreciate a good system.
