You can read reviews to my book regarding my interests in Africa and travel in general.

Mark Walker is a teller of stories, a poet, writer and photographer. His first book, "Swahili Chronicles", describes a journey of 5,000 kilometers taken through Tanzania exclusively using public transport. Told through diary entries, poems and photographs, Mark shares the characters he encounters and the many chance incidents that weave a fantastic tale – sometimes gritty, sometimes warm and uplifting, but always endearing.
