Safety for women in East Africa
Hi there,
My girlfriend is seriously concerned with her safety in East Africa as we are travelling as a two from Cairo to Cape Town (thats the plan anyway). We have had a few talks with people who have worked and lived in Africa and they have said that the risk of her being raped is high?
Thoughts on this?
Any insight would be hugely appreciated.
Btw. we are cycling through Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania down to South Africa. Any hotspots or major areas of concern?
I thought adventurers on here (especially women) would have a valuable insight into this. Didn't really know where else to go with it as not to many women cycle through Africa and not recently as far as we can find online.
Thanks for anything. James.
