Togo is a fascinating military enthusiast's paradise, boasting a rich history of colonial conflicts and modern-day strategic partnerships with major powers, making it an exciting destination for anyone eager to explore its military museums, war memorials, and bustling port city of Lomé, where the sights and sounds of naval vessels and armored vehicles on patrol add to the country's rugged charm.

Togo is a surprisingly vibrant and pulsating destination that surprised me with its rich cultural heritage, delicious street food, and stunning natural beauty, from the bustling markets of Lomé to the tranquil savannas of the Kaboré Tam National Park.

Togo is my home, where the warm sunshine and lush greenery of the tropical savannahs meet the vibrant rhythms of Afro-pop music, and the resilient spirit of its people shines through in every smile and every 'akwaaba' (welcome) that greets you on the streets.
