Moz
Book wise, I'm leaving them with fellow travelers since they're so scarce in central africa (transport and lack of english speaking people) BUT!!!
I found a used bookstore in Blantyre Malawi which I could get 5 books for $3! so now i have A tale of two cities, 20,0000 LUTS, grapes of Wrath, Homer, and The Three Musketeers ! (which is alot of extra weight I might add) - so I'll see Peacher ;)
after my last post I flew down to Nkhata Bay which is a lovely little backpakers paradise, met up with a people from all oer the world, and really just hung out for three days. A friend I met three then drove me about 400 km south where I caught a mini bus to Blantyre and stayed over at Doogles, which I camped at (sleeping bag under a tree- cold though which is good because misquotes suck and I need to be in my bag) looked around town the day after then took off to Tete the next day, which is a large city in Moz-
Slept for maybe 4 hours then got on a bus at 4 am to Onchope (it was about 120*f there) then off to Maxixe (on the cost) - I had been up for about 20 hours, but I got lots of reading and found a leatherman micro for next to nothing)
I'm now in Inbane which is a sleeping and peaceful costal town about 4 hours from Maputo - which is my next stop
I plan on going from there to Swaziland, followed by Joe-burg (then we see)
Either way I fly out of Cape town on the 28th of October to Paris :)
cheers
