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.

I knew he would Weasle out of the worst of it. Wonder if the reality he's been through the "decent" parts of Africa has set in yet.

The caption to this photo reads "Mountain roads get rough and windy like bad logging roads"

That road (as seen in the pic) is not bad at all.

remember when we said that when he gets out in the bush, all there will be are coke bottles full of gas?

Quote:

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.

I actually look at this thread rather than give him page views, which is what he is looking for.

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.

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.

in South America, are they truly uncontacted or has the person/persons making contact just not lived to tell about it?

I believe it. I went to China where there are literally a billion people and as a tall white guy was like some unicorn.

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.

Don't tell him we are bombing Libya again.

Or maybe he can head to The Gambia. I think he missed it the first time.

Somebody with more twitter smarts than me and more free time needs to start a @thischoderodeme twitter account and tell the story of his travels from the viewpoint of his Jeep that is disappointed to be sticking to paved roads and resort campgrounds.

He still has yet to go on a road that is harder than anything on my land and I don't think I have anything bad.
