A Year-Long African Journey
301 pages, Paperback
23cm x 15cm (C-Format)
Goodreads Rating: 3.36 * 14 ratings * 2 reviews
Genres: Africa/Lions/Wildlife
Africa is 'a worm that makes its way stealthily into your being. Sometimes it sleeps and sometimes it wriggles about, but it's there, just under your skin'.
Jo Glynn and her husband Neil had no idea of the truth of this statement when they set out to travel around Africa for a year, but from South Africa to Kenya, Malawi to Uganda, Tanzania to Zimbabwe, the warmth of the people, beauty of the landscape and awe-inspiring diversity of the wildlife soon worked their way into the travellers' hearts and souls. Entirely dependent on their trusty Toyota LandCruiser, 'the Troopy', and often with only each other for company, Jo and Neil found their journey not only opened their eyes to the wonders of this most mysterious of continents, but also allowed them to reach a deeper appreciation of each other and their relationship. In addition, it enabled Neil to find his childhood home in what was once Northern Rhodesia, giving new life to his much cherished memories.
From encounters with waterlogged warthogs and lions who don't know how to hunt to conversations with street kids orphaned bu the AIDS epidemic and Maasai warriors grappling with the clash between tradition and progress, Jo has captured the humour and the pathos, the tragedy and the wonder that is Africa.
