Join Oscar Scafidi on a journey through this lunar landscape while researching our first ever guidebook to the country.
Oscar Scafidi is originally from the UK and Italy and spent five years living and working in Luanda, Angola as a history teacher. Before this he was based in Khartoum, Sudan. When not teaching, Oscar also writes travel journalism focusing on difficult destinations, such as Somalia, Afghanistan, Liberia and East Timor. Some of his work can be found on Sean Rorison’s website Polo’s Bastards (www.polosbastards.com). In 2016 Oscar wrote the first English language guidebook to Equatorial Guinea, as well as completing the first ever source to sea navigation of Angola's River Kwanza. Details of the expedition, including a documentary film of the 32 day journey, can be found on his website www.kayakthekwanza.com.
