Changes

Personal experiences from [[User:Alex|alex]] for the part till Yemen: Winter and the cold haven't been a problem for me, but rain was (especially coming from a region where I haven't had rain for months). Even though it was fine to travel during (European) winter, I think it is more fun to travel when it is not to too cold and days are longer as this gives you more time on the road and also flexibility as you can just end up somewhere (and/or pitch your tent). This was only possible for me on the Arabian Peninsula, however, it might be too hot there during summer time. Further information about taking a ferry to Djibouti from Yemen and about hitchhiking in Ethiopia was posted recently (http://abgefahren.hitchbase.com/blogs). The route up from South Africa I have traveled some years ago (as many others did), Augustas has traveled this part of the world some years ago too and hitchhiked all the way down from Ethiopia to South Africa (http://africa.kligys.com/).
