Hanlo Estate is one of those places that I love going to stay at because I always feel rested afterwards and it gives me that much required repose. There is nothing quite like escaping to a guest house that knows to get the simple things right like breakfast included, soft beds, quiet mornings, horse views…

A Restful Stay at Hanlo Estate a Natural Serenity
In the hustle and bustle of our busy daily lives, we often forget the importance of stepping back, breathing deep, and finding solace in the quiet embrace of nature. Just when we thought we didn’t need it, a tranquil haven emerged in the form of Hanlo Estate, nestled off Leopards Hill Road in Lusaka. Turned…
Gone Fishing to Lower Zambezi
The rainy season is now over which means most of the remote lodges and resorts are officially open and back in business. One of the best places for fishing is Lower Zambezi because it is quiet, not much phone signal, secluded and the views are awesome. Stayed at Mvuu (pronounced Mmmmmvvvuuuu) Lodge which is located…
Girls Trip to Scorching Siavonga
After having major cabin fever had to get away with friends in my bubble for a few days just to relax by the beach. Driving with the girls laughing and joking away on the long windy road to Siavonga which is only three hours away from Lusaka didn’t feel that long. The town itself lies…
Feeding Time with the Park Giraffes

It is approximately a thirty-five minute drive from the main road…
Art Plus Wildlife Gaze at the Avani Resort Hotel
Always enjoy staying at the Avani the staff are great and it’s a very family oriented environment but one thing about Livingstone is you feel that blazing summer heat early in the morning so it’s best to keep hydrated first thing. Having already been on numerous game drives must admit that the wildlife in Zambia…
Staycation: All Packed for Sunny Livingstone
Although October is one of the hottest summer months in Zambia and the further south you go the hotter it gets, but it had to be done I had to get out of town. Destination for the staycation was Livingstone, the town that offers you so much more than soaring temperatures and is famously known…
Staycation In Lusaka
Hello, it’s July already which means we get to find out if Jon Snow will be kept alive this season because let’s face it he knows nothing (I could not resist adding that line for all GoT fans). It being the long weekend I was looking for a good staycation location to just relax at…
