The African UBUNTUness shining.

And the fun planning continues...

I have 115 days left to do all the planning that I can possibly do to make this trip happen.
I am besides myself with excitement already.
I have a lot of surprises for you guys that MIGHT be revealed a few days before I start the trip or I might not even tell you guys and you will just have to stay glued to this website J all in the name of keeping you entertained and wanting more.
Remember, anyone who wants to come with me is invited. I still have space in my first aid kit. I am pretty sure I can fold someone and they will fit in there.

In much greater news, a lot of kind hearted Africans have come to the planning and have offered me to stay with them J The UBUNTUness of Africans will shine through on this adventure. I will bring Africa one passport stamp at a time and the whole Africa will shine.
I have been asked by other Africans why I am not going through their countries on this adventure. Well, I can’t go from Kenya in the East to Nigeria in the west just to get back to Cairo. But do not stress, the wanderlust soul will find itself in your country soon. It is just a matter of time.

These are the guys that have come to the party. Fear not, check out their websites and should you find yourself in their parts of the continent, pay them a visit and tell them #TheSoloWanderer sent you, with love.

And here's to hoping we can fill this table up real soon.

The Blue Pearl of Morocco - Chefchaouen

Grande Cascades of the Rif Mountains. All I know is I know this place from other bloggers who have been to Morocco. This part of Morocco was not even part of my plans but it fell into place so perfectly and I believe it was meant to be. I took a bus from Rabat the capital of Morocco to Chaouen as the locals call it.  The bus ride is just over 4 hours and of course, it was not on time. I used the CTM bus services and the ticket from Rabat to Chaouen was 100 Moroccan Dirham and 5MD to pay for your luggage. Although the bus has the reputation of being the best and most comfortable in Morocco, their travel times are inconvenient but at least you will have air-con unlike with other buses.  The alleyways of the Chaouen Medina. As the bus started winding down the mountain roads, from a distance I could see the city, and then only did it kick in, I was in Chaouen, a city I have only known in blog posts. I got so excited, I am rather familiar with this feeli...

The perfect baked bean curry recipe at Durbans Spice Emporium

The Panorama Route in the Kruger Lowveld

Growing up our holidays were made up of family road trips to Mpumalanga with family and family friends. We had quite a huge family as that also included the extended family. My grandparents were very wise about it as they had a small car and then a bigger car that would be able to accommodate all of us for our road trips. Every years we used different gates into the kruger National Park, and because the grandparents were such epic wanderlusters and road trippers - thats where I get it from - They knew how to do this travel business without breaking the bank. It was always self-catering chalets for accommodation. It was mostly the free things to do in the places we would visit so that everyone in the family was accommodated. While in Mpumalanga, The must visit on the itinerary was always the Panorama Route. Whether we started it in Sabie where it begins at the Long tom Pass and went with it all the way to Hazyview or doing it the other way round it didnt matter. We knew there ...
