Adventure in Cameroon Part Two – Limbe, Bamenda and the Ring Road
Today I have a second video from Cameroon seeing me head north from Limbe and Douala to the Anglophone part of the country. I take in Limbe and its incredible primate-filled wildlife sanctuary, and also explore the Ring Road area based in Bamenda.
I Went to Mali – So You Don’t Have To!
Howdy all. So here’s the idea right. It’s self-isolation time for many of us. It’s minimising social interactions and going out. With Covid-19 or the Coronavirus if you prefer, staying home is a big thing right now. And one thing that it’s virtually impossible or at least highly advised against doing is travelling, particularly internationally. …
Need to Know – West Africa
Hi all – another ‘Need to know’ this time on a part of the world you may not have considered visiting.

Not too far from Cape Coast is the amazing Kakum National Park. Green, thick and also tall there is a suspended rope walkway many many metres above the ground, making this one of the top attractions in Ghana! Thanks for stopping by! May the Journey Never End!

Photos from the ‘Other’ Bali – Cameroon
Howdy all, hope this post finds you well. One of the highlights of my time a few years back now in Cameroon was a visit to the village of ‘Bali’. For Australians, ‘Bali’ generally will only ever mean the Indonesian island where we flock in droves. (not me, not yet!) In fact, I would presume …

Ile de Goree – Through my Lens
Hi all. A photographic post today - heading to Senegal to the Island of Goree, a ferry ride from the capital Dakar. It's a pretty place to visit, but it hides a disturbing colonial past. Ile de Goree was, between the 15th and 19th centuries known for its role in the slave trade. It may …
Transport Adventures – West Africa
Yes, back to West Africa again. Transport in West Africa is possibly THE reason to go if you’re seriously into adventure. I say this because every journey in West Africa is a major adventure. From tro-tros to share-taxis to buses and even the occasional train, West Africa is not for the feint-hearted who like smooth …
