Africa

Its name means sunny place in Berber language, but Africa can also be a synonym for breadth.

A great, huge, continent which includes over 20% of the available land on the planet. Africa is home to the largest desert in the world, its longest river, its warmer temperatures, and hundreds of dialects and cultures scattered among a billion of people.

But if the impact of this huge and diverse continent can give a sense of vertigo, at the beginning, you will be amazed at how, slowly, it will suck you into a vortex from which it will be hard to leave.
This is the last great frontier for adventurous and hardcore travellers.

The continent is too large to describe. It is a veritable ocean, a separate planet, a varied, immensely rich cosmos. Only with the greatest simplification, for the sake of convenience, can we say ‘Africa’. In reality, except as a geographical appellation, Africa does not exist.” R. Kapuscinski
