LUWAWA FOREST LODGE





Hey I'am back (Giuseppe that is, not my brothers!)Well... do you need a holiday of relaxation, fun good veiws, adventure, water sports, biking and camping ALL AT THE SAME TIME ?Well Luwawa Forest Lodge is the perfect location. It is located just a few 50 kilometers north of Kusugu in Malawi.There are two ways going there, the first one is bumpy and trust me you do not want to take the first one because when we were leaving we accidently took the first one so we thought we were lost so we had to ask a few locals!!! Yes it is shorter but it takes longer so please take the second one which is longer but you take shorter time.(and please do'nt under ANY circumstances get lost!) When we got there we went to the campsite and there was no special site for the campers to camp there, all there were little area's were you would camp and most of them were beside the road but the road was't a tar road it was a dirt road which turned into a small path into the villages so barely any one used that road (Pheeew!!!)

The first thing we did was that we went walking up the hill. Our destination was Kamwe fire tower. Its a tower which looks out for fire (just in case you were wondering.) We had to turn back because of footpains(the mysterius cause of these unknown desise was tierdness!)so we had turn back. After some spagetti for lunch (typical
) we went biking while Dad and Damiano went to archery.The biking was great and the veiws were great.The next day me and my Dad went for a second time up Kamwe fire tower and it was so foggy that we went right under the hill of the tower without noticing so we went for another 2 kilometers where we asked the locals the right direction so they told us we missed it ! so then we made it (finally!)Then we did archery were Filippo ad I got a bullseye(Yeah) Then canoeing was also mum's faoverite . I went kayaking and also dad tried it out! We all enjoyed it and i hope you do also!
