I traveled (solo) in Zambia and Malawi. The two countries are pretty safe and traveling as a solo woman wasn’t a problem. The cost of living is very cheap if you stick to the local things ( transport, food, accommodation….). It can be tricky when it comes to getting from a place to another with public transportation especially in Malawi. Don’t miss the national parks and all the animals that live in. If you can afford a little safari then do it. And don’t miss the Victoria Falls
Posted: May 29, 2024Zambia is such an amazing country with so much to do! Personally I felt a lot safer being in a group as a woman, and could see myself feeling overwhelmed if on my own, especially in rural areas where public transportation isn’t accessible. Overall, the culture, the joy of the people, and the beautiful natural surroundings make Zambia the top place I want to revisit!

It's hard to explain, but I generally feel both safe and unsafe in Lusaka. To some degree it's a matter of knowing where I'm going,obviously some areas are more safe than others. But I'm also aware that as a woman, I'm never ever truly safe anywhere. In my opinion the most common type of harassment is catcalling. Men will always try to walk you to your destination, get your number, comment on your body outfit name it. And the "I want to be your friend"🤮uncles(older men)who drive suspiciously close to you. Please always be aware of your surroundings,don't walk with headphones in both ears blasting loud music. I think this has always helped me stay clear of terrible situations. Oh and if you go clubbing,take care of your drink and be weary of men who want to excessively buy you alcohol, they call it "marinating"💔.

Hi Hi my name is Ngawa pronounced N-Gah-wah. I'm a law student,passionate about animal welfare and climate justice advocacy. I can speak basic Nyanja and Bemba,it definitely sounds better in my head. I collect hobbies like pokemon, 2025s hobby is crotchet. If im not bedrotting, I spend most of my days volunteering at the Cactus Animal Shelter,visiting art galleries, going to small indie concerts or Afro sunset raves(because I find clubs annoying) and going walking/jogging(plan on getting a bike soon). I enjoy teaching people about the little things I know about Zambia. And one of my super powers is knowing a guy for everything 🤣

Hello ladies! I'm a passionate traveller and world citizen, with a particular interest in an organic lifestyle, empowering girls & young women and animal/marin life preservation. I love connecting with people form different countries, cultures and religions to share both deep discussions, but also just to goofy around and enjoy the joyfulness of life itself. I'm an easy going person, curious, self-driven and very adaptable. I love to stretch the limits of my comfort zone, by challenging myself in all kinds of ways. I'm up for adventurous endeavours, cultural visits, culinary discoveries. My way of travelling varies depending on the destination, but I priviledge simplicity and authenticity. I walk a looooot! And I love to ride my 🏍️ Last year I had spent 45 000 hours on Spotify, so music is a great deal of my life. I've been trying to learn drums this year :)
