Suzie's Blogs ... Traveling & Living Abroad Hints & Tips

African Adventures Your trip to Africa will be an adventure off the beaten path. Conditions and customs in sub-Saharan Africa can contrast sharply with those in more developed countries. I'll be posting advice to help you avoid inconvenience and difficulties. Take our advice seriously but don’t let it keep you at home. Most visitors have unforgettable experiences in Africa. We are often welcomed and helped by Africans who are happy to share not just their scenery, but their culture and traditions as well. These posts will cover all of Africa except the five nations bordering the Mediterranean. Sub-Saharan Africa includes 48 nations. Forty-two of these nations are on the mainland. In addition, four island nations in the southwest Indian Ocean (Madagascar, The Comoros, Mauritius, and Seychelles) and two island nations in the Atlantic Ocean (Cape Verde and Sao Tome and Principe) are considered part of Africa. For convenience, I will often use the word "Africa" to refer to the sub-Saharan region. See you here tomorrow. Suzie Suzies Travel Blog Posted: Wednesday 2nd February 2005, 12:15 AM
