Find true romance in Africa; Susannah Lyon reveals where to go and what to do, to capture your lovers heart this Valentines.
By Susannah Lyon
'Oh God, its Valentine's Day!' Up goes the panic-stricken cry! The ever-consuming mechanism of time is raising blood pressure, causing hair depletion and furrowed worry lines are appearing on your brow, because you STILL haven't worked out what to do for the object of your desire. Well, there is a new concept on the Valentine planner's horizon.
There are places with sugar sand beaches, gin-clear waters and lots and lots of hot sun. The snowy depths of England will be left far behind along with all the other fretting Valentines Day dupes who have not yet worked out that there is a better way. We have found the places where true romance lives and breathes and they exist in Africa. Sniff the spice-infused air of the magical Moroccan souks or explore the sand dunes of Eygpt; the home of the Bedouin people. Lose yourselves on a Kenyan beach under a canopy of stars or wander through the spell-binding costal plains of Tunisia.
