The route Viajesalpasado, Villas do Indian and South African Eland Expeditions, Malawi and Mozambique aims to teach part of the lesser known South African. It is a full path in which we crossed by three national wildlife parks; a national park in the middle of paradise islands of the Indian Ocean ...

Maybe not the best time to teach that in the back were two other people, more when we found out later that at that time was one of the officers gun unholstering (amidst all the tension, was much, the situation was even comical)

Maputo has an important historical legacy. Account, say, with one of the ten most beautiful train stations in the world, designed by Eiffel; a fort in which he played the fate of the colonies of South Africa; an iron house as beautiful as useless and the arena to the south of the planet. A special city.

The city falls apart like cardboard soaked by rain. Its rugged skin of tall buildings in the center, of concrete sidewalks with reluctance and constant hole, does not prevent the city has the same philosophy that all major African cities I've visited: throng outside misery, unsuitable sales stalls, fruit stored on timbers or shoes littered the streets. City, however, perhaps by the beautiful sound of Portuguese, seems closer; almost, at times, more Caribbean than African.
