I'm checking out Sibi, a beautiful town in Southern Mali.
Obviously I'm keeping up to date on the safety situation in Mali, and talking to lots and lots of people about the reality on the ground.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to go North to the Doggone Country due to all the fighting there, the Mali military will actually stop me if I even try.

But I did with this one 
Thank you for documenting your adventure. Longest overland trip I've ever been one was 2 weeks, I can't even imagine what 2 years is like!

Hi all,
I have made my way South in Ivory Coast, and the roads deteriorated very, very quickly.
10 hours of driving for 40 miles. Trucks stuck for a week.
This is the West Africa I dreamed about !

These may just be the best beaches I have ever seen, anywhere in the world.
