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.

Traveling from Nouakchott in Mauritania to Dakar in Senegal over land

Mauritania is a desert country.  Nouakchott is the capital city of Mauritania. Mauritania is a desert country, bring loads of water and sunscreen. Although there is a caveat to bringing loads of water, this trip has no bathroom breaks. I did not see a toilet anywhere and asking the taxi to stop so you can relieve yourself is a bit tricky as there is no bush and you are driving through the desert. So drink loads of water at your own peril. The local taxi to get to the border Take a taxi from Nouakchott to the border with Senegal. The taxi stops about 1km from the border. There are horse carriages available to take you to the border should you need but it is a walkable distance. When you get to the border, you need to produce a copy of your passport. There is a place to photocopy your passport if you don’t have a copy, and there are guys who can change money for you. The border town  is called Rosso. There are plenty of trucks at the border. there is no ...

UNESCO World Heritage sites in South Africa

South Africa is a country with such rich heritage, there are definitely places that you need to add to your itinerary on your next visit to our country. I have had the privilege to visit some of the most interesting heritage sites that share a story of our trying history and even the first class society in Southern Africa. The South African Heritage Resource agency is an organisation tasked with protecting the South African Cultural heritage. Local government in the various communities are responsible for the management of the heritage sites in their communities. SAHRA is then responsible for the overall protection of our heritage sites and also the submission of heritage sites to the World Heritage Committee to be added to the tentative list which can then be added to World Heritage sites. Heritage sites also have different levels, we have the World heritage sites, National and provincial heritage sites. I get to share with you some of my favorite Heritage sites in South Afr...
