When decided to see the world I didn't think I'd end up in Dubai airport with no wallet, no phone and no voice with a flight leaving for Nairobi in 3 hrs time...that was just day 1! Welcome to my trip through Africa.
This is a travel diary, a story of my trip through Eastern Africa. It is also an advice book, not the kind of advice book that will list all the things that you need to take and all kind of precautions but one that will hopefully give you more of an idea of what to expect during your journey. Flying into Nairobi and out of Johannesburg join me on a trip in which I mix up public transport, voluntary work and overland safari tours. Each chapter ends with lessons learnt along the way that will hopefully help out any want to be explorer.
If you are planning a trip to South East Africa and have many questions, as I did, this book will hopefully go a long way to giving you the advice that you need. If you are not I hope it will still be a very enjoyable read.
The advice in this book is not really for your experienced explorer, more for someone who wants to try something different but is a bit overwhelmed by the immensity of the journey and Africa perceptions. I am aiming to give you specific advice (based on hard-earned experience!), contacts and I hope some entertainment along the way. I hope by the end you’ll have found it helpful and have a smile on your face.
