Malawi is widely known for it’s stunning beaches and plethora or wildlife, and she is slowly gaining in popularity. While Malawi has a ways to go to gain touristic traction on nearby countries such as Tanzania, Kenya or South Africa, Malawi boasts some treasures that those mentioned can’t claim. Called the “Warm Heart of Africa,” in the native language, Malawi locals exude friendliness. It’s common for strangers to wave and greet visitors as if they know them. And it’s easy to make them smile with a “moni” (pronounced mo-nee, not money), which means hello in Chichewa, the local language, and “Zikomo” (thank you). Alas, Malawi is much more than it’s beautiful people.
