2022

I was driving to see my parents last week. I was speeding (relatively), trying to get home before the sun went down. I had a flat tyre, and ended up getting home at close to midnight. So here is a story about sports cars, speed, potholes, and flat tyres. Or is it?

5 years ago, in early January of 2017, I moved to Lilongwe. I had just completed my undergraduate studies, and I told my parents I was moving to a city 220kms away. I am living my last days in a city I have for half a decade loved to call home. I am sitting at one of my favorite restaurants, writing this, for mostly me, and maybe you too.

I am so delighted to be one of 3 Malawians who are a part of the 33 young professionals selected for the first ever cohort of the UNDP Graduate Programme – what was a very competitive hiring process that invited 38,709 applications from allover the world.
