I'm going to Zimbabwe on Monday last minute. Is it really as expensive as they say? Any restaurant recommendations please.

Do you defo need to take your Malarone?

what did the doctor tell you? it gives you pleasant dreams

 

[fastfude]

Expensive? Well...

 

[Raudi Raus Schinkel]

Really pleasant? Doesn't make you feel like you are tripping during the day? Hi Shane!

Hey that currency is gone now boss, it's all US $ now

 

[nooleen]

what did the doctor tell you?

he said "boy you better try to have fun no matter what you do"
but he's a fool

Do you know any locals? My cousin stayed there years ago and locals were charged something like a tenth of what foreign tourists were for hotels et al.

By the way, your life seems a million times more interesting than mine.

I wouldn't sweat it about the pills. Whatever side-effects you might get are going to be way better than getting Malaria.

How do you end up going to Zimbabwe "last minute" !!??

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

honeymoon is my guess.


malarone is fairly side effect free (apart from the price of it - sheesh). other people commented on the dream thing too - very vivid but not all like tripping!

 

[Pedronimus]

Yeah Malarone is supposed to be easy enough on you. Larium leads to very very vivid dreams, is very hard on the stomach if you don't take food with it and can lead you to being a bit depressed. The first time I worked in Africa a couple of the lads I was working with stopped taking the larium and ended with Malaria, one on a drip in an Afircan hospital and the other developed when he got home and ended up on a drip too. But then there were a few lads who weren't taking pills and never got it.

Areas of Zimbabwe with Malaria: All.
If you will be visiting an area of Zimbabwe with malaria, you will need to discuss with your doctor the best ways for you to avoid getting sick with malaria.

WARNING: The outbreak of cholera in late 2008 is still an issue, and scarce running water (even in some cities), and the closing of some major hospitals make it necessary to travel with caution to Zimbabwe. Despite the formation of a unity government in March 2009, there is still a chance of political unrest. The unresolved economic crisis bears the risk of civil disorder and the situation is still shaky, particularly in the urban areas.

CHOLERA?!

Unless thats the name of some new cocktail they're talking about in the Guardian.I dont want it.

 

[Raudi Raus Schinkel]
