Description - Riding the Wind of Change: Trans Africa and Europe Trek, 1960 by Peter Hardy
After five years working in Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, and South Africa, I decided to return to London overland from Johannesburg, 9000 miles. Early in 1960 I hitchhiked with a Jewish friend to Nairobi, East Africa. From there I continued alone. David wanted to avoid the Moslem lands.
From Uganda the Nile carried me to the Sudan, where primitive Nilotic people greeted me. In Egypt I explored the temples of Ramses II carved out of a cliff at Abu Simbel. Later these were relocated avoiding flooding.
I hitched through Greece and communist Yugoslavia, eventually returning to my London family, March 1960.
