I am planning to go for about three or four months, so I'm looking for an apartment to rent, rather than to stay in a hostel the whole time. If anyone's done this, or knows the best, cheap way of going about it, then I'd be very grateful hear from you. Cheers, Oli.

I'm still hunting around for information on renting somewhere longer term - a few months, but that's a useful starting point. Thanks, Oli.

For that I would go to flipkey.com, but I don't see anything for Africa... But just search "dakar rental" in google and you get stuff like this: http://www.iha.com/Rental/1FK/Senegal/Daka...ion/Dakar_1.htm -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

Yeah, you'd probably be able to find a temporary place while surfing somewhere. -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara
