Highway to the Danger Zone

We embarked on our journey to Kitwe!

With a rented van we set out, luggage in tow. We celebrated the leg room in the van and the extremely comfortable seats! However, on the journey we noticed a concerning trend that we always seemed to be behind a toxic or hazardous material truck! Not the most comforting in a country that loves to pass each other on the road!

After a quick stop at ShopRite to pick up cheese, crackers, popcorn and fruit for lunch, we continued into our next leg of the trip. We created a fancy little backseat charcuterie with our cheese, crackers and grapes for the road.

After a few more hours of reading, listening to music and intermittent napping (about 7 hours altogether!) we arrived in Kitwe during the onset of a beautiful sunset.

Our hotel, the Lifesong Lodge showed us to our rooms on arrival where we found not only large beds but televisions and wifi, what luxury! We settled in and ordered a Debonair’s Pizza, garlic bread and watched a Netflix rom-com for some team bonding.

  1. Amazing! Love hearing about your adventures. Most of all seeing pictures. What an experience of a lifetime; seeing the country, culture, meeting amazing people and the research you are doing that could make a difference!
