After 2 years of writing, my backpacking Africa e-book is finally here! Introducing…
The Independent Traveller’s Guide to Backpacking Africa
Thinking about travelling to Sub-Saharan Africa? Looking for some help in planning and preparing for your trip? Then you’ve come to the right place!
I’ve been travelling to Africa for the last 12 years – as a backpacker, as a solo traveller, on group tours, private tours, overland tours, as a volunteer, with my partner, self-driving and as a tour leader.
Over that time I’ve had many adventures, made plenty of mistakes, made a ton of friends, had lots of fun and learned a lot about African countries, cultures and wildlife.
And I want to help you do the same (minus the mistakes)!
All for the bargain price of £10.99! With lifetime updates!
