I'm in Malawi

I am in Malawi as part of an Engineers Without Borders placement. The bulk of my updates will be on an alternate blog where you can subscribe to receive an email notification when I post something new.

This map doesn't show Balaka where I am living, but it is east of Ntcheu (which is spelled incorrectly on this map).

I went to an internet cafe to upload some files. Silly me. I plugged my laptop into their network and the fastest internet site in town painted the Google search logo over a period of about 10 seconds. They need some bandwidth over here. My BlackBerry has EDGE connection speed which is better than so called broadband here.
