Africa 2002  Early in the year 2002, I quit my job and headed for Tanzania. I spent 6 weeks on Pemba Island, Zanzibar's much less travelled sister, off the coast of Tanzania in heart of East Africa. After a few weeks of diving and earning my Divemaster certification, my boyfriend Oliver flew in and after exploring Pemba for one last time, we headed back to Africa's mainland. We began a journey of discovering Africa's heart and soul, and most impressively, its incredible scale and diversity. There is a bit of everything in Africa - every type of weather and climate, poverty and riches, animal, landscape, food, culture, music and art and so on. And scale? Everything in Africa seems doubly exaggerated. Insects are twice the size, people are twice as friendly, spices are twice as hot, twice the number of people can fit in a minibus and the journey's take twice as long... What a treat for the senses! We kept an online journal, the entries of which can be found here. > See the photos. > Read the journal entries. Back to top |
