Travel Plans for when things return to normal
April 14 2020
Map and list of countries I want to visit when travel restrictions are lifted:
|
Uganda *
Rwanda * Burundi * Tanzania Zambia * Botswana * Namibia * South Africa Eswatini/Swaziland * Madagascar * |
Moldova + Transnistra
UAE + Oman * India (North East) Bangladesh * Thailand Macau * Hong Kong Philippines Malaysia Kalimantan East Timor * |
Which would give me 12 new countries, 107 in total and while this is quite a tidy sum, it is clear that I will have to go to South and Central America if I want to get anywhere near 150. Of course there are a few left in Europe, Gibraltar, Andorra, Liechtenstein, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Cyprus, Malta but these seem less important
The focus is on visiting new places with a few re visits to meet friends (Moldova, Transnistria, UAE, Philippines) and hangout (Malaysia - Cameron Highlands, Thailand - Mae Salong, Mae Sai).
And the immediate plan in Africa?
Kenya
• Nakuru - Menengai Crater
• Maseno - Equator
Uganda
• Jinja - Source of the Nile
• Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary
• Kampala
• Entebbe - Equator
Rwanda
• Kigali
Burundi
• Bujumbura
• Source de Nil 110km to the south
Tanzania
• Kigoma - take the MV Liemba ferry down Lake Tanganyika if it is still running to Kasanga, last stop in Tanzania.
Zambia
• Lusaka
• Livingstone - Vic Falls
Botswana
Namibia
South Africa

Jo'berg to get a flight to Madagascar
This would be enough of Africa. I would have given enough time to this continent with 30 countries and territories visited.
