Ade Adepitan on his travels
Ade's favourite go-to destinations around the world
Hi, my name is Ade Adepitan and I've been lucky enough to travel to so many places around the world. It's really difficult to pick out my favourites, but I had an opportunity, uh, quite a few years ago to go to a place called Nicaragua or Nicaragua in Central America. And I loved it because it was and actually It wasn't quite a holiday. It was a, a journey where I travelled from one side of Nicaragua to the other. But what I really loved about it was the beauty. You had the Caribbean beautiful sun kissed beaches, and then you had the diversity of the amazing rain forest with wild animals. And you could pick mangoes from the trees and you had lakes everywhere. And then you had the wild rocky side of the South, which had volcanoes and it led to the Pacific Ocean. So I love Nicaragua. It's a special place in Central America. I also love Africa. Africa is amazing. I've been there so many times. I was born there. A lot of people go to Africa for the jungle trek and to go out and do the safari. But I think something else you should do is go into the African cities, check out the markets, uh, Kumasi in Ghana has the biggest largest outdoor market in the world. And that's where you get to meet real African people in action. And finally, I went to a place called Bonaire, which is in the Dutch Antilles. It's part of the ABC islands. I really loved Bonaire because it's a diver's paradise. It's where if you want to scoop a dive, it's amazing. I've never seen sands the colour of the sands in, in, in, in, in, in, in, um, Bonaire there it's golden glowing sands and you have the sea lapping every day. And one of the great things about Bonaire is you can scoop a dive anywhere off the shores. And there are wreck dives. There are wrecks, ships that have been sunk from hundreds of years and beautiful, beautiful coral. It is like, I'd know, it's like an Olympics for your senses.
