Welcome to Africa

Africa, a continent full of fantastic sights, colours and smells. Not to mention multiple cultures and wonderful peoples. Africa is the world’s second-largest continent.

Ancient Egypt is very special.  Awash with ancient treasures and jaw dropping history. Why not sail down the Nile on a hand made Dahabiya boat. Check out my adventure doing just that here! Sail the Nile in Egypt.  Egypt is also to one of the world’s greatest wonders – the   Pyramids of Geyser.  Don’t forget the popular sunny holiday resort of Sharm El Sheik . Right on the magical red sea. 

Morocco is a favourite destination of mine.  Its incredible culture, food and  exotic ceramics are a delight.  Check out my blogs about Fabulous Fez and  From Fez to Meknes.

Tunisia Don’t underrate it! As an African country,  Tunisia has much to offer the discerning traveler.  Tunisia produces a huge amount of premium olive oil. It is also packed with incredible historic sites. One such is El Jem amphi-theatre, a location for the film, Gladiator.

Africa covers 20% of Earth’s land area and is home to 1.4 billion people. The oldest inhabited place on Earth, Africa is the origin of the very first humans.

There are an amazing 54 countries in Africa! It is home to the Sahara desert, the largest in the world. It has the world’s longest river, the Nile and it is also as the source of most of the world’s diamonds! Africa is bounded by five seas. The Mediterranean, the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. A huge continent. And a lot more for me to explore!

Fabulous Fez

Fez is a very special city. If you like Game of Thrones you will be in your element in the amazing Medina (walled city) of Fez. More exotic even than the better known Marrakesh, this former capital of Morocco will take you back into the sights sounds and smells of a medieval way of life.
