Ian Packham

In this solo 25,000 mile by-any-means journey through 31 countries Ian travels through Africa at its most raw and real. Attempting to complete the first solo and unassisted circumnavigation of Africa by public transport, equivalent to circling the Earth at the equator, Ian experiences life without schedules. He has chronicled his adventures in his book <a href="https://thetravelmagazine.net/encircle-africa-by-ian-packham.html">Encircle Africa</a>.
