Guia da Lonely Planet Eu comprei o meu da Africa no proprio site da lonely Planet (Entregue no Brasil). Alguma livrarias como a Cultura em Sao Paulo tem os guias. O da Australia deve custar por volta de 70 reais mais entrega. Eles nao sao muito baratos mesmo. Voce pode tentar os Rough Guide. Nunca usei mas ja ouvi falar muito bem deles.

Hi from Oz Hi guys! It's been a long time since i met you in Zanzibar, and now am back in Australia. Just found your wed address! I'm glad you are still alive!! Will make sure i keep checking your blog for some laughs!!
Eritrea I saw your last blog from Ethiopia on your way to Djibouti. I am just wondering if you going/went to Eritrea from Djibouti? It's my country and I wish I was there to welcome you:((( Unfortunately travelling in Eritrea can be discouraging. Despite the governments desire to develope tourism, they have put so many regulations (visa, travel permit etc...) for "security reasons" (conflict with Ethiopia) that it is hard
for independent tourists like you. I hope you go there anyways...it is a beautiful country with nice people:) If you are continuing to Asia from there, you can fly to Yemen and/or Dubai from Eritrea. Make sure you get a travel permit to cross Eritrea from Embassy in Djibouti.
Sweet christ i knew i should have followed ye into Africa. Looks nice lads! ich wohne im Munich jetz, ich fange arbeiten montag. wasnt i meant to be in New zealand now? Enjoy the beach my friends
MISS AFRICA Guys, where u at? I miss Africa big time. I cant belive we´ve been home for over 2 weeks already. Sweden is getting close to spring and the weahter is greate. Not like Zanzibar though ;) Take care.. SKÅL!!

Simplesmente espetacular!! Bom, em primeiro lugar quero dar os parabens a vcs dois por essa experiencia simplesmente incrivel!! Ha tempo sonho em fazer um mochilão por ai, mas realmente vcs superaram minhas expectativas.
Em segundo lugar, gostaria de saber, assim por alto, se vcs podem me passar uma ideia de qto ficaria, por exemplo, um mochilão pela europa, de uns 40 dias, mais ou menos?? Nesse esquema de vcs, fazendo tudo (ou a grande parte) por terra!! 40 dias é pouco tempo pro velho continente??
Abraços
Mambo vipi guys!
Back in Belgium since one week, we finally have enough internet to get on your blog. We're very sorry to read about the unlucky event... too bad that you didn't get the chance to see Tanzania like we experienced it. We had a really great time in our little 'town' where you get to know the people much better than in the city. While we did our research we made friends and got to know the way of life there. We didn't want to go home at the end..
Once in a while we wondered about u guys, how u were doing, what u experienced, where u were, ... . Are u back in Brasil or still travelling to finish the two years? Hopefully u have some great times on the different places,
We had a really good time with u two, the life band was much better sitting next to you. If u ever are in Belgium... :).

an interesting way out of tanza-freaking-nia Para comecar quero dizer-lhes que o seu blog e o mais interesante que ja viu no internet, foi um acidente que o descubri..mas agora fico captivado pela storia da sua viagem e sua forma de viver a vida increiveis. E mais que so um blog otimo, e o melhor programa realidade,
melhor que qualquer m+rda na televisao justamente porque e verdadeiramente "realidade"...sem manipulacao...
Bom, eu nunca estive em Tanzania mais eu sei que ha um comboio (tren) de Tanzania (Dar es Salaam) a Lusaka, Zambia. De ali deve haver
boas conexoes para Africa do Sul. Se querem passar o viagem ao sul falando portugues, ja sabem que Mocambique, um pais lusofono, esta situado entre Tanzania e Africa do sul, tem uma costa pelo oceano indico maravilhoso mas as comunicacoes sao pessimas...Boa sorte com tudo!
Ze.
are you still alive? Onde estao agora? Ja lhes mataram os mauditos tanzanianos? Espero que voces estejam ainda vivos, com saude e seguindo o rumo da sua felicidade... AbracosZ
primeiro parabéns pela aventura. eu tenho uma dúvida: e quanto a vacinas, como tem sido feito? alguns países exigem certo tipo de vacina antes de entrar? vc já teve algum problema de saúde, fora resfriados ou coisas assim?
I read your blog in a little bit of a rush but got the same feeling you do. I feel your frustration too. I will conclude that what you experienced was not just bad luck but nothing different from what you'd expect anywhere in the world. I am African and have been conned money there in Tanzania by a Taxi driver. He left me bitter as hell, but I tried to get around things. The problem is that when a mzungu gets to a third world country you expect to walk on red carpets everywhere. When we travel to overseas we are not treated with any respect and have to learn to be tough and survivors. So in essence as you continue travelling, remember money can't buy you respect, love or happiness. Deal with it and hopefully when you get back home you'll have understood what it means to be a foreigner and treat those aliens with alot more respect and love. Africa is not just the people, focus on the scenery and you'll enjoy yourself so much. With all due respect!
Shit lads thats a tuff one - i had my camera stolen last week as well. i was lucky though i didnt have many pictures on it. Ah fuck it it'll bring whatever scumbag stole it no luck - some other fucker will probably steal it off him and he'll get pisdsed of go out and kill him and end up spending the rest of his days getting assfucked in African prison - HOPEFULLY
Sorry to hear about it lads.
Peace

Sorry Guys Hey Fernando and Claudio! I am am honestly sorry and seriously shocked about what I was just reading about your Tanzanian experiences. You must really have had a bad time there. Off course, buying a car in a country like this you must be very lucky to get a real good deal. But all the other things that happend to you are really annoying. You seemed to be pissed and you are trying to keep people away from Tanzania now. But I believe, once you start making bad experiences in a particular country, your perception gets worse and things that happen get worse and so on. On all my African travels (should be 18 countries by now) Tanzania is definitely among the top five. And this is for exactly the opposite things that you wrote: nice, friendly and helpful people (except for very touristy areas), rough countrysides, few (harmless) begging, relatively safe in terms of minor crimes and most of all welcoming and affordable. I know that these arguments are my personal opinion (after all together 8 weeks of traviling Tanzania) and can not be taken as objective but the picture you are drawing sounds like a rough generalization written out of frustration (which I have totally empathy with). But this image you give to people who have never been to Tanzania or who are maybe planning to go there is a distorted one which is not fair towards all the tanzanians who try to make foreigners feel at home in their country even without making personal profit out of it (by the way Tanzania is among the six poorest countries in Africa). The only thing I do agree with you is the fact that by now they rip you of for going to the National Parks (which had been half price last year) and climbing Kilimandjaro. But the reason for these price explosions are once again we who have the desire and opportunity to visit these places.
I hope you are fine by now and are still open hearted and looking positively forward to the other countries to come. Stay safe and have a good time with the people!
