I'm sure we've all had our fair share of annoying local stragglers nipping at our patience as we try to discover a country on our own; trying to be helpful but really being enraging. Enjoy Taryn's story of 'The Horrible Man'.

The best part of travel is when you stumble upon things. And multi-day festivals, where ten year old boys can drink you under the table, is a festival where stories are made. Enjoy Raquel's ride into the Kundum Festival.

Traveling in and of itself may be a hair-raising experience, but bring it up a notch and add some scary to it. Riding down the Nile river in a flimsy little raft.
