Originally from the UK and Italy, he has lived, worked and travelled across over thirty African nations. Oscar tends to focus on difficult destinations and post-conflict zones which do not attract many tourists. His work has included everything from interviewing pirates in Somalia to chasing elephants around the forests of Gabon.&nbsp;Among his many accomplishments, he kayaked 1,300km along Angola's longest river and 750km along Madagascar's longest river.</p><p><br></p><p>Oscar’s YouTube channel:&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@ScafidiTravels/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.youtube.com/@ScafidiTravels/</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Social media links:&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https://t.co/A26f0YRZwK\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">lnk.bio/ScafidiTravels</a></p><p>Kayak The Mangoky Official website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https://kayakthemangoky.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://kayakthemangoky.com/</a>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Support this Podcast: </strong><a href=\"https://buymeacoffee.com/WhiskeyAndAMap\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>&nbsp;buy me a coffee</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Hosted by Michael J.
