The countdown is on!!!
With just a day to go till I get to start my
adventure backpacking Cape to Cairo, The nerves have really kicked in and
reality is more exciting than ever.
For the past 6 months I have been planning
for the biggest adventure I will ever go on. I have resigned from my day job to
chase a life of being a tourism social media marketer. This adventure that I
speak of will see me travel through 11 countries including my home country of
S.A.
The countries are as follows:
·
Namibia
·
Botswana
·
Zimbabwe
·
Zambia
·
Malawi
·
Tanzania
·
Kenya
·
Ethiopia
·
Sudan
·
Egypt
The adventure will show the best in budget
African travel accommodation establishments, activities, music, lifestyle and
cuisine in the different countries.
I will also show the different ways to travel
on a budget living in backpackers, couchsurfing, volunteer tourism and camping.
The adventure will feature some of Africa`s best music festivals, world
heritage sites, water sports and also highlight the love of Africans.
Backpacking Cape to Cairo is on a shoestring
budget and Africans Ubuntu has shined through as they have came forward to
sponsor me with accommodation in all different countries.
As a travel blogger, my passion is traveling.
My curiosity is the drive that will lead me to explore Africa. I decided to
embark on this journey not only to promote Africa as a travel destination to
Africans but to also introduce traveling as a lifestyle to young black
Africans.
I hope my travels add value to my audiences
life. I hope to have an impact on how as Africans we perceive Africa and fellow
Africans. I hope that through Travel Mzantsi, I will be able to highlight
similarities and differences of Africans but also start a culture that
celebrates those differences and similarities.
My travels
will be shared on my social media accounts: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and
right here on my blog. I will also be posting regular videos on my Facebook
page as a way to keep everyone updated on how the adventure is unfolding. The
hashtag for this adventure is - #TheSoloWanderer
My mission
is to reach out to the rest of Africa so that we can collaborate and use Travel
Mzantsi as a vehicle to unite Africa and to showcase Africas best in travel and
lifestyle.
Backpacking
Cape to Cairo is my way to bring Africa together - one passport stamp at a
time, overland.
I am
interested in suitable collaborations like sponsorships, giveaways, competitions,
advertising and other interesting enquiries.
