Lifetime Adventure Trip |

In 2001 I retired from over thirty years of office computer work. I am reinventing and re-evaluating my life and realising many more dreams, experiencing more travel adventure, and developing even further my passion for photography and writing. On 2 March 2002 I started my solo almost year-long African backpacking adventure. First stop is in Madagascar, where I will be staying for two months. On 4 May 2002 I will land in Cape Town in South Africa and start my 5 months overland trip to Egypt. In October 2002 I will fly from Cairo in Egypt to Accra in Ghana in West Africa to continue for the next 4 months of an overland trip to Morocco. In February 2003 I plan to land in Europe and stay there for an indefinite time. In Africa my intention is to visit as many countries as possible all over the African continent. I am so looking forward to re-awakening my sense of adventure, and the intensity and enrichment that travel brings to my life. I love to go on learning, exploring my curiosity about people of different cultural and social backgrounds, and seeing everyday life from a new perspective.
