My friend Kim from Atlanta came and visited me in Malawi. We embarked on an African adventure through Malawi to Tanzania via minibuses, buses, trains, boats, and planes! From Lilongwe, Kim and I headed to Karonga, the northern-most district in Malawi to visit an orphanage. From there, we walked across the Malwian-Tanzanian border to catch a minibus to Mbeya, the train depot city. From Mbeya, we rode 24 hours on the Tazara Train Line through southeastern Tanzania. Once we arrived in Dar Es Salaam, we took a ferry boat to the magical island of Zanzibar. For three glorious days, I soaked up the sunny warm rays on the sandy white beaches of Paje. Afterwards, I returned to Dar Es Salaam to hang with another American friend, Colleen, before my return home to Malawi.
Here is my journey in photos:

Even in a tropical paradise, you need to be
greeted by some animals. |
