Things to Know Before Traveling to AFRICA!

The Info Jabs with Pascale

Jan 14 2024 • 57 mins

"Mama Africa" used to be one of my favorite songs about a decade ago. The song highlights the beauty of culture, the excitement of the music, and the strength the people. Most individuals can probably share the same sentiment when talking about visiting "The Mother Land". Jinia Williams and Wilda Attilus joined the conversation to give us a glimpse of their experience. Between us, we traveled to South Africa, Ghana and Ivory Coast. The hope is for you to get some insight before visiting Africa.
