About this blog

My travel blog for my Trans Africa overland journey through 30 countries. The full trip is broken down into 3 legs for a combined duration of 44 weeks:

1st Leg: Gibraltar to Cape Town, South Africa

2nd Leg: Cape Town to Nairobi, Kenya

3rd Leg: Nairobi to Istanbul, Turkey

I am going through the "Real Africa" (West Africa), around Southern Africa, up through East Africa and finishing the trip by travelling through the Middle East.
