Malawi lake and bush

Eleven days between a lake lodge and a wildlife park. Malawi is on the original Feral Trips map; this is the trip the old site pointed people toward when they asked.

Highlights

• Lake Malawi swim days
• Liwonde or Majete wildlife
• Small lodges
• Pacing for a real holiday, not a tick-list
