124 - Massive Detour to Get to Guinea

Friends told me that going overland into Guinea could easily get me held up by the police for no other reason than they wanted a bribe. So they recommended that I went all the way back to Dakar in Senegal and take a flight to Conakry.  They also said that they didn't really like the country. Would I have a different experience? I met some of the locals, and in this first of two episodes from Conakry, you can meet the first one. It's Tim, a French expat who likes the country a lot.   LINKS:  Sponsor Hotels25.com  See pictures on TheRadioVagabond.com   You can follow The Radio Vagabond on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram og YouTube.
