I lived for two years in the tea growing area in Southern Malawi in the late 80s. I think fondly of my times there. It's nice to see and hear that the best part of Malawi hasn't changed.
They work hard to live up to that reputation, it's a very special place. Sometimes a frustrating place, but overall very peaceful.

Sounds bucolic! I have almost certainly travelled through the place you're talking about and it was absolutely serene.

Thanks!
