| Africa
is a land of many countries, many cultures, has seen much bloodshed and is
imbued with an ancient cunning.
It is a continent which has seen the rise and fall of empires and despots. It is the land of my birth. I am half wild and half 'civilized' I believe I shall remain this way until the day I die. |

| The
spirit of Africa is warm, fatalistic and dangerous. There is very little
conscience for 'wrong' or 'right' in this left over garden of the
world. It is more of an instinctive place The western world's fascination with this dark and mysterious continent is as old as the spirit of adventure. It is a place that should be for women but is not. |

I once went to Israel. I walked the streets of old Jerusalem, bobbed (with burning privates), the salty Dead Sea, sat on an ancient wall of three feet thick in Jericho and saw an Arab defecate in the middle of the street. |

Some people wailed at the wall and others lined up for felafel even though there was a 'bomb scare'. I lined up, too and have loved middle eastern food since that time. I learned to bargain in Tel Aviv, Israel. | ||
| Israel is not a land you like. You love it or you hate it. Sometimes both. | |||
