Mushroom Farm

So where siting on the beach reading lonley planet which claims that it is really difficult to get to livingstonia as it is a 25 km walk up a steep hill (only accsessable by 4wd) and there have been muggings, and so we dicide to miss out on it. which is a shame as it has links to supprisingly enough David Livingstone, and the abolition of slavery.

But we cassually ask the barman if there is any way up to livingstonia he gets on his radio and there is the owner a campsite ( The Mushroom farm) who was coming on to town and could give us a lift back, great we said and easy as that we got a free lift up the hill to a beutiful little campsite ran by a Oz'y guy called Mick. the site had a natural spring flowing from it and so we had clean water and a at 1355 meters we had a great view over lake malawi, what more could we want but a good meal, and bang on arival it appeared.

Mick made it sound and look really easy to set up and run a campsite in malawi and you certainly couldn't knock his lifestyle at least for a short term stay.
