About Adventures with Bigphil

Welcome to Adventures with Bigphil, your premier destination for exploring the vibrant landscapes, rich cultures, and hidden gems of Cameroon and beyond. Founded by Phil, a seasoned traveler with a deep passion for discovering the world’s wonders, our blog serves as a compass for like-minded adventurers seeking to immerse themselves in the beauty and diversity of our planet.

Phil, affectionately known as Bigphil due to his larger-than-life personality and towering presence, embarked on his travel journey over a decade ago. What started as a quest to visit all 54 countries in Africa has blossomed into a global adventure, taking him to the corners of the Earth. Along the way, he realized that the stories, lessons, and experiences he collected were too precious to keep to himself. Thus, Adventures with Bigphil was born.

Our mission is simple: to inspire you to explore, to connect, and to learn through travel. We believe that travel is more than just visiting new places; it’s about experiencing new cultures, meeting new people, and seeing the world from different perspectives. Whether it’s the bustling markets of Marrakech, the serene landscapes of the Serengeti, or the historic ruins of Machu Picchu, we’re here to bring those experiences to you through vivid storytelling, stunning photography, and practical travel tips.

At Adventures with Bigphil, you’ll find a mix of content ranging from detailed travel guides and tips to heartfelt stories of the people we meet and the cultures we experience. We are committed to responsible travel and aim to highlight sustainable and ethical practices in our journeys. We believe in traveling with purpose, respect, and sensitivity towards the communities and environments we explore.
