Jambo Kenya!

The first part of my round the world trip is an overland tour across Eastern and Southern Africa. I start in Nairobi and drive through Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia, arriving in Cape Town in South Africa 73 days later. I then have a month in South Africa, travelling independently to Johannesburg via Lesotho and Swaziland.
