Mozambique – Pictures from Maputo and Xafina Island
I was a frequent traveler to Maputo in 2014 and 2015. At one point, a lady in the passport control said “Ah! Welcome back, Mr. Bauck”, before even looking at my documents.
I never got to travel much outside Maputo, though, other than a boat trip to Xafina Island. Hopefully, one day, I will get to travel as a tourist, and do some proper exploration!
