Seventy kilometres southwest of Blantyre, Malawi’s commercial city, lies Majete Wildlife Reserve (MWR) which covers nearly 70, 000 hectors of thriving wilderness.
This is the park which government abandoned after heavy poaching by the people from the surrounding villages, thanks to African Parks, which came to the rescue in 2003.

Traveling through the virgin mother Malawi
Born 24 years ago and raised in Malawi, I never realised how beautiful my mother land is, full of the wonderful scenery, the culture so absolute and full of lovely people.
Every year from September 19 -25, Malawians observe tourism week and it is for this reason I embarked on an adventure of discovering our tinny-jewel like nation.
On this one week journey, I felt no longer like a citizen; I really was a tourist in my own country-to find out what makes Malawi the ‘Warm Heart of Africa.’
