Africa’s population is the youngest of all the continents. It is also the second largest continent in terms of both land area and population. Vitality and lust for life radiate from the diverse cultures and landscapes found on this vast expanse of land! Over a thousand languages are spoken in Africa which is comprised of 54 countries—the most of any continent. Within Africa there are endless possibilities for adventure. Most people visit Africa for the safaris, but there is so much to be seen and experienced beyond this: from beautiful art and handmade crafts, spectacular expeditions through pygmy villages in the Congo Basin—one of Earth’s most vital wilderness areas, to life changing encounters with gorillas in the volcanic ranges spanning Rwanda, Uganda and the DRC.

Asia is a fascinating continent where tradition and modernity co-exist in stark contrast. It is also Earth’s largest and most populous continent, with a remarkable diversity of culture and religion. The Taj Mahal in India attracts lovers and dreamers from all over the world, and in the Land of Kings—otherwise known as Rajasthan—are an abundance of colorful markets concealing an ocean of trinkets, textiles, exotic ornaments and other splendid souvenirs waiting to be discovered! Moving a little further southeast is one of the most breathtaking islands of the Indonesian archipelago: Bali—’The Island of the Gods’. Bali is home to over 10,000 temples including the unforgettable Lempuyang temple which is so picturesque it has come to be known as the ’Gates of Heaven’. Just a little flight north from Bali is Bangkok, Thailand, a top tourist destination in Asia famous for its vibrant food scene. Other incredibly beautiful, modern and exciting cities not too far from Bangkok are Kuala Lumpur and Singapore! Still a little further east from these lies Beijing and Hong Kong, home to remarkable architectural sites such as the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Great Wall. From Victoria Peak—the tallest hill in Hong Kong—one can get spectacular, sweeping views of the city below. And still moving further east is Kyoto, Japan, a city that is home to an impressive 17 UNESCO World Heritage sites that include temples, shrines and castles! Of course, no picture of Asia would be complete without mentioning the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest, located in Nepal, or the magnificent Temples of Angkor in Cambodia.
