About Likoma Island
By Bradley Charbonneau | Filed under About
Likoma Island /lee-koh-ma/ is a small island in Lake Malawi in East Africa, not too far off the coast of Mozambique.
“No running water, no electricity, no mosquitoes, no malaria. Take the boat on Tuesday nights.”
That about covered the advertising campaign for the island–scribbled on a slip of paper thumb-tacked to a guesthouse message board in Nkhata Bay. It was Monday, we left the next night. My then-girlfriend-now-wife spent either ten days or ten years on the island, it’s difficult to measure. It’s where our lives together began.
Somehow, it’s where I’m from. Maybe it’s just where I belong.
