Travelled in Germany, France, Holland, Spain, Italy, England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia, Morocco, Mauritania, Western Sahara, Mali and Senegal.
Lived in Malawi for 8 months in 2006, teaching in a secondary school. Went back to Africa in summer 2008 travelling overland from Paris through Morocco, Mauritania, Mali to Senegal. Maybe will visit Eastern Europe next, or ideally Russia and Siberia!... full info
