Has the ebola crisis in Nigeria just ended, now Mali is infected, the West-Africa route is pretty unlikely if this outbreak in Mali spreads 🙁
Dutch documentary series on Africa
Already for some time every Sunday on the Dutch TV channel NPO 2, this very interesting documentary series Dwars door Afrika is broadcasted. I always watch it on demand, so also this evening about Angola. If you watch this you’ll get confident that it is going to be all right with Africa. I especially liked the last part of the documentary in which victims of landmines mines get to speak.
African Border Monitor
There are 166 different national borders in Africa, but there are fewer and fewer of them open. The western route seems almost impossible. For the time being, I am betting on that the border between Nigeria and Cameroon will be open again in March, or that there will be a workaround by then.
The VICE guide to Congo
I think I’ll skip Eastern Congo. Thanks for the viewing tip Peter van Apeldoorn!
