Hello travelers!
I've never been on a forum like this, but as the subject says I'm looking for information about journeys to the southeastern coast of the United states. My husband and I are planning a low-ish cost vacation not too far from Pennsylvania. We'd enjoy 9-12 hours of driving, far enough to get to warmer weather in April.
I'm intrigued by the Gullah culture and other history. We're into fishing, small scale agriculture, and supporting rural and local economies. Also, oysters! Camping is good, but we can do rentals if necessary. State parks are great.
Thanks for any advice.
Happy travels!

We are two Americans in our late 60's driving our 4x4 Toyota 4Runner around the world since May 2016. We are birders and enjoy the outdoors. Like art museums, UNESCO World Heritage sites, archeology/history, culture, food, and everything else that makes up the world. We move slower than those younger than us, a hike is no longer than 6 hours and we try not to have to use our tent & sleeping bags but travel is what we love.
Look forward to other Senegal travelers' review of our itinerary and suggestions on our travel.

To #16: That's not good advice. Read that map. Only the northeast portion of Mali is in the "dark" red" risk category and with good reasons. The whole southwest region is just fine to travel.
To #2: If you want to head to Bamako to enjoy West Africa's best music scene then go right ahead. Siby is also a quaint little village just a couple hours southwest of Bamako that's good to visit for a day to check out the caves and hike around. There's even rock climbing there along with some decent hotels.

No it is not high desert at all. I would say by the car would be better to travel. You can have your a fold up bike with you and use it when you feel for that so to speak.
Forget Chefchaouen, it is far, and it is more nice in Tafraoute and surrounding area. Even weather will be much better and warmer than in North.

..... an Arazonian going to the 'Desert' in Morocco is a bit like a home holiday.! The two little piles of sand in the south-east of Morocco aren't as impressive as those in Arizona, most of Morocco desert areas are Hamda desert, stony, rocky, mostly barre with some sparse resilient scrubs, trees and grasses. The largest area of Hamada are in the disputed Western Sahara, overland excursion opportunities here are limited and few for security reasons and the indiscriminate laying of mines.!
For huge classical endless sand dunes you need to go much farther south and east on the Continent.

.
Morocco has much more to offer than a few small sand dunes, this is a cultural and linguistic diverse country of some 33 Million people, mostly Berber People divided into many sub-groups shaped over generations by the environment where in Morocco they find themselves. Given the dramatic high mountain ranges physically dividing the landscape, the long wild Atlantic coast, the Mediterranean and its close proximity to Europe, the marked difference in climate with prevailing winds and air currents, has shaped and influenced the character of the people, the one thread binding them is Islam.
For members here on the Morocco page of the TT, it would be helpful to know where you can arrive in Morocco, and if you can depart from a different port.? if you intend to hire a car or swim in the cultural experience of shared Public Transport.?

https://www.alsa.ma/marrakech/lignes ..... the information contained in these links are best explained in the LonelyPlanets Guide to Morocco, and if visiting Marrakech which I recommend you do, the small City-Guide to Marrakesh is very useful and will more than pay-back for its self in savings.!
Do research the Atlantic Coast, especially the remote seaside villages south of Agadir, a good airport to arrive at if visiting the Sous Valley area where few tourists venture.
To mention, there's a Government tourist policy of low cost internal flights using Air Arabia or/and Royalair-Maroc.
These pages or best for fine tuning an itinerary, not for planning an individual trip, good for reviewing your planning in case you are missing something, or making an obvious (to us here)mistake.

Ingrid, you can find a list of NZ Farmers Markets here:
http://www.farmersmarkets.org.nz/
There's a popular one in Queenstown, the Remarkables Market:

If you miss the Cromwell Farmers Market, you can still visit its large fruit stalls, such as Webb's , Jones Family, Jackson, and Freeway Orchard.
https://www.cromwell.org.nz/1456-2/
You'll want to take the fastest route from Cromwell to Wanaka along the western side of Lake Dunstan through Mt. Pisa (Luggate-Cromwell Road).
