Africa at the beginning was only a hint of a dream, and as time went on and I became more mature, most of Africa was transformed into a call that I decided to obey, throwing myself into the most extraordinary adventure: a tour of Africa on foot, hitchhiking, and cycling! January 2015 marked the beginning of the adventure, and so far, I have traveled to 17 countries including Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Mali, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, Bénin, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Somaliland, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania & Zanzibar, almost all without any money! I plan to continue until I reach South Africa. At the end of my trip, I am planning to make a movie about my journey. First, I want to tell my story and how I crossed this entire continent from one corner to another, and how I was able to realize my dream despite starting from nothing. Second, I want to contribute towards changing the average person’s perspective about Africa, and convey vivid stories that show the continent’s beauty
