I’m not there yet but I bought a 19 day tour around Egypt. This will give me a couple days there and then the rest of my time will be on tour. Check it out at: http://www.topdeck.travel/africa-trips/egypt-pyramids-red-sea-resorts-htueg/ultimate-egypt-2011-12-holidays I’m so excited!! Oh and it’s official my friend Greg ward will be meeting me in turkey!! It’s […]

So today was spent at the beach! It was really nice and I found that wearing headphones helps to not have to talk for at least an hour to absolutely everyone that walks by! I left in the afternoon as it was so hot and I had gotten so much sun the day before, and […]

Well everyone should be happy to know that, as am I, that saly beach is much nicer than saint Louis beach! No dead animals! Though this place is so so so expensive! Because it has a good beach it is like the French peoples Mexico and the prices show it! The beach here goes on forever! […]

So I have spent the last week at a hotel on the beach in saint Louis, Senegal. Though I would never ever swim in these waters!! I have walked along the beach here and everyday brings a new dead animal to the shores! I have now seen a dead dolphin, a dead sea turtle and […]

So last night the guys who work at my private hotel ( I say private because I’m the only one staying here so it is like 5 star service) invited me to go to the local disco. At first I said no as I am fighting an ear infection right now (don’t worry I have medicine). But […]

That says my French is very bad!! Anyone here never would believe that I had a French minor in college! Not that I was so good at speaking it then eithe, but after 6 years it’s even worse!! But I can uphold franglais (French and English) conversations pretty well!! After leaving Dakar I went and stayed on […]

So my hostel in Dakar is more like a family stay, and they are all very nice. Most the day I spent wandering the area and then sitting on the beach until I couldn’t take all the people sitting to can’t with me! Haha! Mostly cause it’s all men and it starts to creep you […]

So I say Dakar finally because it took me two days of travel to get here! 10 hours on a bus, a 5 hour flight, a 4 hour layover and another 10 hour flight!! The bus ride was not supposed to be that long but just as we were leaving Mombasa we came along a […]

It’s been an amazing week or little over having chelsy around! We spent a couple days in Nairobi going to a giraffe park- we fed them, even from our mouths! – and an elephant orphanage and just saying bye to everyone from my tour. We then made the 8 hour bus ride to Mombasa and thought […]

The tour ended yesterday!! Sorry I was off the radar so long but overland tours don’t really allow for too much internet time! Rather than go through absolutely everything in the last three weeks I will simply go through some brief highlights and it will probably be enough. The pictures unfortunately will have to wait as […]
