Paco's plane has just taken off the airport in Johannesburg and is on the way to Freetown, the capital city of Sierra Leone. Behind are his adventures in South Africa. He visited the Apartheid Museum a couple of days ago and it was much harder than he had imagined. This left Paco a bit thoughtful and sad but, at the same time, relieved that this situation with black people was over.

Again, he had to take a plane in order to get to a new country. He has no other option if he wants to travel across Africa. When he booked the flight, he remembered the businessman on the plane to Johannesburg and his advice of having a nap before landing. Paco thought he needed to overcome his "problem" and, little by little, he thinks he will. He's also reading the book this man recommended and it is being very helpful.

Paco has been thinking about all his travelling adventures: he had never travelled abroad before and, since he left Spain, he has already been to three continents. He has visited the British Isles in Europe, the USA and Canada in North America, and now he is travelling across Africa. He hasn't been to Asia yet but he thinks it must be really interesting too.

Fortunately, English is the official language of Sierra Leone. Therefore, although Krio is the national language, English is spoken at schools, and it is used by the media and the government administration. Paco won't have any problems with the language. That's for sure! So far in his travellings, he has realized that you can go anywhere if you speak a bit of English.
