Exactly
I would like to know how many of the people commenting on Africa have really traveled there. I mean travelled, not flew in and stayed at a fancy resort or hotel for a few days and got ferried around in private cars or buses to a few sightseeing places?
Go there. Spend at least 6 months travelling around in the way the locals do. Stay with the locals. Wander in their cities and villages. Do all of this before you are allowed to report on Africa (or any other place).
Africa is a beautiful continent with so much potential it hurts to think about it. But the reality of how most people really live there is heartbreaking.
Agreed.
I have not been but a long, extensive look at the photographs and reading about it is shattering. It’s almost hell on earth.
