He's in Guinea now. I asked him on facebook if he was going to go through Sierra Leone and Liberia, and he said he heard the roads were "vehicle ruiningly bad". I told him the Landcruisers didn't have any troubles.

Supplies are limited in town, so I stock up on rice and pasta, but choose not to buy gas from dirty coke bottles on the side of the road.

Serious question, is there really a person (over the age of 9) on this planet who has not seen a white person? It's not like he has that Jeep some place a Land Cruiser cannot go. They may not see many white people, but, I'm sure they see one on occasion.
in South America, are they truly uncontacted or has the person/persons making contact just not lived to tell about it?ursusguy said:
There are still uncontacted tribes in South America and in the Pacific.
I believe it. I went to China where there are literally a billion people and as a tall white guy was like some unicorn.AggieChemist said:Texmid said:

I went many places in Sierra Leone where I was quite the spectacle. I am quite certain I was the first white person ever in some of the Ebola villages.

This guy hasn't been off a main road yet. I'm sure they may not see a lot but villages on the roads this guy is taking have certainly seen a few.

He's having second thoughts, thinking about going north to Mali.
