Crossing the border<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

It takes us about an hour to drive from Chimoio in Mozambique to the Zimbabwe border on a well-maintained road. The convoy of trucks transporting goods and fuel from the port of Beira in Mozambique to Zimbabwe, Zambia and the Congo begins several kilometers before the border<\/strong>. There are up to three rows of<\/strong> them on the left-hand side of the road, so that at times we can’t even overtake them. At the two customs offices, there is complete chaos because there is simply no room for the trucks. The customs offices in Machipinda (Mozambique) and Forbes (Zimbabwe) are completely overwhelmed. Some truck drivers help us to get to the front, as we have no load and therefore don’t have to wait for clearance.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
