Steve doesn't do trucks. Steve doesn't do tents. And Steve doesn't do toilets without doors, or walls.
When there’s a mix up at the tour company, Steve swaps the luxury Spanish trip he can't take for an African overland truck tour going through countries he’s never heard of and never wanted to visit.
Steve soon realises truck travel in Africa isn't as romantic as it sounds and questions why he is sharing a small tent with a large Welshman when he could be curled up in a bed with his girlfriend, Sofia?
To see Sofia again Steve only has to survive on a truck for five months, with eight other passengers and a grumpy driver, as it bounces through fifteen countries down the western coast of Africa.
What could possibly go wrong?
Diary of a Man Being Driven Around Africa on a Truck with Some Other People is Steve's story as he endures a five-month trip down the west coast of Africa on an overland truck.
Steve records the journey as he passes through Morocco, Mauritania, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, Cameroon, Gabon, Congo, The Democratic Republic of Congo, Angola, Namibia and South Africa while he copes with his fellow travellers and deals with the girlfriend he left behind.
