Travel Companion Wanted

I've not forgotten you, you have a reserved place on the roof!!! Anyway I thought you told me from Morocco?!

Kira

Hi,
Exactly what kind of vehicle are we talking about here???
What sort of fuel burn?

Its a minibus; not sure of consumption I hope to have it donated to me shortly awaiting an email

Kira

OK no problem if you supply one crate of beer/day than i can sit in the VIP place.

Thanks people, great response. I'll reply individual once I've got a minute at work. Thanks again.

Hi Andrew
I've booked one way trip to Accra arriving on december 16. I'm planning on staying in western Africa between two to six months and visit at least Burkina Faso, Togo and Benin. Give me a message if you're interested!

Greetings -
Kira, indeed you have hijacked the thread! My husband and I are flying into Madrid on 10/20 and were then planning on spending several weeks in Morocco before heading south to Ghana. It sounds as if your vehicle might already be full, but if not, we would be interested in sharing the ride/expense, etc. Please keep us in mind if you are interested or in need of travel companions.

Hmm, I am open to where I go, but have a month over Xmas. Maybe I'll go to Ghana!! Had previously thought of Namibia, Okavanga delta or Cuba. No-one seems to be going to the first two!

Hi Andrew,
I'm probably coming into this dialogue at the point that you posted the initial request for a travelling companion so bear with me. I am currently in Gambia waiting for my friend and travelling companion to return to the UK, unfortunately for medical reasons. She has been here since January. I joined her in July staying in and around the Casamance region of Senegal. Our intention was to travel to all of the West African countries, culminating in Ghana, looping back though Burkina Faso, on up into Mali, probably a boat ride down the Niger, back to Senegal, and then home, possibly overland through Mauritania, Western Sahara and Morocco.
If you are interested please let me know. I will be in Gambia for a few more days waiting for some charitable donations to arrive at Banjul port and clear customs. I will then deliver said items to a village called Ndongane, near Bounkiling, Senegal, record the event for the people back in the uk and then start my travels in earnest.
I have no fixed agenda as such just a vague idea as to what I would like to see and do. I will be in West Africa until June/July of next year.

I'll be going home to South Africa for an extended period (Jan-April '10) so if you're there during that time why not drop me a line on bridgot2@gmail.com. Am planning to do some travelling myself and it would be fun to have a good laugh on the way...
