About Africa
Home Swapping
Home swapping in Africa is a fantastic way to experience the continent. As tourism isn’t built up in many countries in Africa, and it's not the cheapest area in the world to travel, home swapping can be a great alternative for accommodation options. Locals will be happy to see remote workers enjoying life and it is a great way to grow the tourism sector.
Remote Work
Africa is a good place to work remotely, despite the poor infrastructure in some regions. Not only can you see some of the world's most amazing sights and save money on the cost of living, but it's also a world unlike any other. As remote workers help grow the tourism sector, many cities have adapted to make remote workers more comfortable. Co-working spaces are popping up in various countries, such as Nairobi Garage in Kenya, and AlMaqarr in Cairo, Egypt.
Popular Locations
Africa is home to 54 different countries, each with its own unique culture and personality. It could take years to explore the entire continent and still not see everything there is to see. Whether you are looking for vast deserts, luscious jungles, or dazzling coastlines, Africa has it all. Some of the most popular locations in Africa are Mount Kilimanjaro and Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, The Great Pyramids in Egypt, Victoria Falls, Masai Mara in Kenya, and the Sahara Desert.
