Bus transport in Mozambique is cheap: I took the direct bus from Inhambane to Maputo – only 180000 meticais for 9 hours of travel. It is less then 9 USD. When I entered Mozambique they paid 20000 per dollar, today they paid 23000 so do not change all your money on entry.
It was the trip from tiny fishing village to the big concrete blocks… The capital city has good internet connections /you pay 30000 per hour/, more goods in the shops /worth to buy here the supply if you are heading north/… White cathedral and colonial Polana Hotel are the landmarks not to be missed. I stay in the center of the town – in the Pensao Central they charge 250000 per crampy single room /take a back room and keep the net windows closed – they have not mosquito nets on the beds/. I made today a big laundry before the final stage of my journey: tomorrow I plan to enter RSA by bus – the Cape Town is closer and closer… Now it is already my fourth month on tha african roads. No, I don’t feel tired… But yes – I feel the homesick. There must be beautiful spring already in Poland….
