Africa

Did you know that I’m actually half Mauritian? I’ve luckily been able to visit Mauritius a few times over the years and it holds a special place in my heart. I’ve recently returned from the most incredible trip to Marrakech, Morocco, and have previously visited Agadir. I hope to travel more of Africa in the future and will definitely be creating more posts so watch this space.

Best Things to See & Do in Africa

Solo Female Travel in Africa

Considering travelling solo in Africa? There’s so many options for your destination and it’s likely the level of safety will vary between countries. I’ve yet to solo travel in Africa, so I advise you to do your research, feel free to use my travel itineraries and guides on the areas I have visited to help you plan. Here’s 5 tips for feeling safe and confident when you travel solo in Africa:
1
Trust your gut – my number 1 rule. If something feels off, leave the situation!
2
Never arrive anywhere late at night, it will instantly feel dodgy.
3
Research hostels & accommodations – always read the reviews.
4
If you feel nervous, check in with friends / family nightly and send them your location.
5
Talk to people! Don’t let yourself feel isolated. Make friends and form a group.

Money Saving Tips for Africa

1

Eat street food

Follow the locals and eat freshly prepared street food instead of heading to restaurants. Hint: the best places to eat usually look like someone's house or garage.
2

Stay in hostels

If you're on a budget – hostels are the best in Asia. They're super cheap, great for making friends and often you'll get cheap trips or discounts on activities.
3

Haggle everywhere!

You are expected to barter in Asia, it's part of the culture. So don't be afraid to try and bargain down the price – it's fun once you give it a go!
4

Book as a group

Find friends in your hostel and book activities as a group – it works out much cheaper and you can usually negotiate extras along the way!
