Malawi Madness: Everything has its own time

Written by

while browsing through Bloglines, i stumbled across this new blog from Nkhata Bay in northern Malawi:

http://njayalodge.blogspot.com

A story of the most unlikely couple you could imagine, from Clapham London who packed it all in to discover a new reality. In 1993 on the shores of Lake Malawi two naà¯ve 26 year olds, Paul and Claire Norrish begin to construct their dream ‘lodge’ in the remote African town of Nkhata Bay

I guess, the blog is new, judging from the test postings. Nevertheless, I encourage you to read the 3 long entries describing how the authors moved to Nkhata Bay. Included: a letter by the former Foreign Secretary, Douglas Hurd, describing the political situation in Malawi in 1993.

And here’s the link to their lodge:
Njaya Lodge

    Hi Paul,
    the articles are great and well-written. They tend to be kind of long to read online. I’d go for shorter but more frequent posts. I’m sure many will find your experiences very interesting.

    Have I been to Malawi? I’m from Malawi…
    I grew up in Blantyre and moved to Europe after completing secondary school. I’ve been to Nkhata Bay. I remember it as being very beautiful.

    looking forward to reading more about Njaya Lodge,
    nchenga
