Hi guys, my mate and I had a conversation the other day about traveling and how it was so sterile, safe and generic. Often backpackers and thrill seekers I talk to, go to places and do activities that a done to death already, but still insist that it was the most 'mind-opening experience' that they had etc... which brings me to my next idea.
If I were to organize a guided travel tour to Somalia, would anyone of the posters here be keen? Do you guys think there is money to be made from this niche in the tourism market for the true adventurous western travelers to come to places like Somalia?
The reason is I think Somalia is a cool place to travel are:
-most traveling expenses are cheap.
-authentic pirates along the beautiful coast, if you're lucky you can join in on the pirate raids (only few places in the world with real piracy) and chill after at real pirate bars!
-genuine Islamic culture
-no government, so wicked freedom
-if sea fighting bores you participate in some cool clan based fighting with AK's in little shanty towns built for little skirmishes, though it would only be awesome to be on the winning side.
-no hipsters or posers lurking around, only genuine honest Somali folk
-good place to lose weight and get a tan as weather is sunny all year around and there are food shortages.
-heaps of untouch diverse fauna and flora
Somali Pride!
The beautiful nation of Somalia, the horn of Africa.
Now with 50% increased water rations.
The people of Somalia are just waiting to greet you!
