Places In Africa That Live Up To The Hype
I haven’t gone to any famous landmark or tourist. Personally
I haven’t traveled so much, but some tourist and backpacker have left a good
picture of what these places look like and they really live up to the hype.
You’d be wondering if tourist and backpacker aren’t the same, yes! They are the
same, they are both tourist since they both are visiting a foreign
land/country.
A tourist wants to see the local life, see their culture and
all the happenings in the foreign land but a backpacker wants to live the life
of the foreign land, feel among the people of the land. So I will be running
through some place in Africa that live up to the hype they have been given, without
you getting disappointed when you finally made the decision of being a tourist
or a backpacker.
