My idea of exercise is dancing around the house to eighties music. I’m not exactly the poster girl for fitness but I do love adventure and am always up for a challenge. So, I thought about it.

Situated in West Africa, Ghana may lack the tourist crowds found in East and Southern Africa, but that in no way reflects the rich experience this part of the world has to offer. Thriving with personality and its own unique experiences, visiting Ghana remains ‘off-the-beaten-track’ largely because of its loca

The elderly woman in front of me is hunched over. Her frown deepens the creases in her weathered face as she rubs her lower back and groans. Beside her is a tall, younger woman. Both women are members of the Africa’s San people and stand barefoot in the dust, clad in brown animal skins worn in the style of their ancestors.

At first glance Namibia seems like a challenge to the budget backpacker; its cities, coastal havens, burning dunes and wildlife parks are interspersed throughout a vast desert landscape, with little in the way of transport to connect them. Couple that with the country’s remote location and a penchant for catering to the luxury safari market and it’s easy to see why a backpacker on a budget might feel discouraged.
