Hi harlotsdance,
I am actually from South Africa (born in the city of Johannesburg), but yes, I have been around the rest of Africa quite a bit. I went to Egypt in 1993, Botswana in 1996, Mozambique in 1997, and then in 2003/2004 I went on an overland journey through Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania (including Zanzibar) and Kenya. It was the most awesome experience of my life!
