275,000 kwacha a week. For a hotel. Thats 1,650,000 for the six weeks. Sounds like a lot. Sounds like there should be white linens. Butlers. Mimosas. Hot tubs. Massages. Free rides on elephants to say the least.
That's until you convert kwachas to dollars. 275,000 kwachas = 54 dollars. Not quite as expensive or luxurious sounding. I guess thats why they tell you to bring your own mosquito net.
So I'll be staying in the dorms at the Malaria Research Institute in Macha. I think the institute is more along the lines of a small building. I get my own bathroom and they give me breakfast. Somehow at the end of this, I think I'm really going to appreciate my own bed with its down comforter. :-)
