Running away from POLICE in MALAWI // EP.44

We cross the border into Malawi and very soon get into problems with the police, in order to avoid the police, we need to take alternative roads, and here the adventure starts.

The story unfolds kilometers after crossing the border in Songwe, on our way to Kapoka and later to Karonga, where there are many police checkpoints. Some of the policemen here, just get ready to get tourists who were not able to get insurance, to fine them crazy amounts. We escape that and try to avoid passing the same control by taking a road to Kapoka that was not in use for a very long time. We make a very rooky mistake at a river crossing ending up with a big problem with our land rover Defender afterward. Apart from this, we are lucky enough to enjoy the Malawi lake, the views from Mushroom Farm, and the stunning Manchewe Waterfalls.

This is a fun episode, just editing was so hilarious. ENJOY!
