This is the story of a Turkish traveler's solo journey across
Africa, from Cape Town in the south to Cairo in the north. In his
second book, a follow-up to Nine Gates of Asia, Faruk Budak tells
of his eight-month adventure. Sometimes he rides on the back of a
pickup truck or travels in a packed, run-down bus, and sometimes he
walks along the dusty roads of Africa. Africa Cafe contains
valuable information about each step in this journey that includes
visiting the magnificent UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and
structures; smelling the magical spice aromas of Zanzibar; eating
tropical foods; going on safaris on the plains of Masai Mara and
Serengeti National Park; walking the mysterious streets of Lamu,
Africa's Kathmandu; contemplating Egypt's pyramids; and shopping in
sukhs in Syria and Jordan. Budak experienced the Dark Continent's
dark poverty along with its generosity, beauty, and enchantment. He
experienced the absurdity of borders on a continent where beauty
and ugliness, good and bad coexist. Dreams are the only guide along
this breathtaking journey. In Africa, dreams meet reality, earthly
travel merges with the spirit's inner journey, and the mission is
completed.
