If you live in the big city, an exotic bachelor pad is the perfect escape. Nothing can get more exotic than the Chongwe River House located on the Lower Zambezi River in Zambia.
The rustic style of the house is an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of the city life. The open concept creates the feeling of being directly in nature while still being protected from the elements, and nothing can beat falling asleep to a warm Zambezi breeze. The River House fits right in with the houses found in 'The Flintstones' cartoons; the only thing missing is having an elephant acting as your shower. To make up for that loss, you can step out onto the front deck and see elephant and other amazing wildlife living peaceful right out in your front yard.
