Malawi - Getting Closer

I've got cash - $ & Sterling. I think I've got all the techie gizmos I need, including a new keyboard for my iPad. I've got all my paperwork together, just need to check in online 24 hrs before I go. Got all my meds & Mozzie stuff.

I've also now got masses of info from the CEO of MicroLoan Malawi - (thank you C - what a lot of preparation work has gone into my visit). 3 sides of A4 on arrival & the first 2 nights in Lilongwe, (which I wasn't expecting). Plus 3 sides of A4 on my first week familiarisation programme. This is also a surprise because I will be going to Nkhotakota & Nkhata Bay on Lake Malawi & Mzuzu. I think I am actually beginning to get excited - well just a bit.

I'm glad I do know, because I will need to take a small rucksack or case for a few nights away.

It's not the clothes that's the problem - it's all the other stuff! Clothes can be washed or new ones bought. It's always a lot easier to pack for a hot climate that you can rely on. Rain isn't a possibility until about December.

I'm reasonably organised at home & my other Volunteer jobs are sorted. Not bad really.

I am looking forward to meeting all the local team in Malawi.
