Every month we focus on a different country to whet the appetite and show what's possible in countries that often seem too daunting to tackle as an independent traveller.

Experience the diversity of Namibia's landscape – desert, the Skeleton Coast and on safari. Join us on our camping and 4WD adventure.

Cuba: We loved Trinidad - it is so beautiful. I presume the street scene was taken there? Include it in your itinerary!

Cuba: So right - driving through Cuba is the ONLY way to really feel it - staying over in casas particulares. I had a similar experience with a copper just outside Holguin - he stopped and interrogated us for what felt like hours, told us about the "huge fine" we could expect (US$10) and then let us go with a huge ticking off - but no fine. Would that happen here in the UK?

You won't perhaps consider establishing links to accommodation sites?
