Adventure City, Lusaka’s abandoned water park

August 28, 2017 by Adam

I was out cycling the other day and found this place. Adventure City was abandoned around 2011 due to mismanagement and even several drownings. It’s situated on Leopard’s Hill outside Lusaka. The water slides and the structures around them seems to be robustly built, maybe it would still be possible to restore the place. The bush istaking over and it’s easy to miss the place unless you know exactly where you’re going. I found the last few pictures in the […]

Kafue revisited

September 25, 2016 by Adam

Last week, I went back to Kafue National Park . It’s the largest national park in Zambia, covering an area of about 22,400 km² (similar in size to Wales or Massachusetts). It is the second largest park in Africa and is home to over 55 different species of animals. We saw lots of elephants and were also lucky to see a mother Leopard with two cubs. We stayed at the brilliant Mukambi Safari Lodge, I highly recommend to stay here if […]

Tikambe

October 10, 2015 by Adam

A few days ago, me and a friend did a story about the Zambian radio show Tikambe. “Tikambe” is Nyanja and means “Let’s talk”. The radio show is a youth-led programme focusing on sexual and reproductive health. The show is sponsored by several international donors such as Swedish Sida and BBC Media Action. Our story will be shown on Swedish TV within a couple of weeks

Camping in Kafue

September 9, 2015 by Adam

I just came back from a camping trip in Kafue National Park. Me and a few friends spent a couple of nights in the bush surrounded by Hippos, Elephants and Lions. We did three game drives and luckily enough we saw Leopards every time! This female had a cub and wasn’t very happy to see us. This is quite a relaxed young male. A very venomous tree […]

Misisi

February 16, 2015 by Adam

Misisi Compound in Lusaka, Zambia, has been identified as one of the five worst slums in Sub Saharan Africa. Due to a lack of resources there has been poor record keeping, but according to best estimates, there are between 80 and 90,000 people living in the area. The average life expectancy is around 32 years. HIV/AIDS remains a huge problem. A majority of the children living here have lost at least one parent to the disease. There is also a prevalence of […]
