Ever since i saw the movie 'I dreamed of Africa' I have wanted to visit there. I think it would be amazing! The pictures I have seen just make my mouth drop. It seems so expansive!

ive never been there but my sister been there. when she came back she told me a lot of stories and brought me a lot of her pictures and some remembrance too. i thought myself before that its pretty poor company and people are somewhat uncivilized. but my sister told me that not all. she said though majority of africans wear no slipper because of poverty but they're also rich in some area. like they're nature, they do have animals that my coountry dont have. they have this cheese that really taste good. their restaurant stuff are mostly made of animal skin and decorated with so much real thing. they have precious jades. the beach was awesome. i hope someday i could go there too with my sister.

Thank you. Yes in this movie I watched- the way it depicted the ocean and beach was just absolutely magnificent, that was the first thing that made me want to go.

I have been to Nairobi. If you want to go there, plan in the month of July/Aug, weather is very nice these days and you can enjoy.

I listed it in places I want to go. I have seen that movie, I just bought it a few months ago, it's a true story too. That movie made me want to go to Africa and see the ocean. Its portrayal is amazing; I was in awe at the landscape, particularly of the coast!

South Africa is a famous country. The president is Thabo Mbeki, and have you not heard of Nelson Mandela? I've been but I cant upload any photos from this computer but I could try at a later date. Yes it's very pretty - all the countries in that region are. It's a great, diverse place to go but make sure you don't just stay on the tourist route! Because that can mean you miss out on meeting the best South African people, and the most naturally beautiful places.
