**Some basics to start** Women we are going to introduce this, we may do a women-only version, but generally we are telling women instead of women-only, just do tag a person into the event. We are releasing a simple web version to test this. Can women be early adopters? [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) **Important** we are seeing early event mostly women are selected, which means you will show up to an event where women are in majority. women set up your profile here, if you want mostly women at the event then just tag other women. [https://eseek.app](https://eseek.app) 📩 Invite System (Tag-A-Person in) Events are shared through a “tag a person” invite system. Only tagged users receive event details. 🎟️ Arrival Check-In On the night of the event, users press a Check-In button when they arrive. Everyone who checks in is added to a live attendee list. 👥 Friend Matching After check-in, each person is automatically assigned 1–3 potential friends from the attendee list. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Personal Board Posting Users post on their personal board: 👗 What they’re wearing 📍 Where they are sitting/located in the venue 🔍 Find & Connect Assigned matches can view posts to: Identify each other Find each other in real life Form groups naturally ⚖️ Self-Regulated Attendance System No host is required. Access is controlled through tagging and invites. ♀️ Gender Balance Mechanism Women are encouraged to confidently tag other women. This helps increase female participation and maintain a balanced (or women-majority) ratio. 📱 MVP Mobile Test The concept is being built as a simple mobile version for initial testing. 🚫 No-Host Reality Check Free events where a host is expected to show up and spend all their time organizing and managing large groups of idiots is not something we are supporting - if you want free - this is what you get, I suggest you embrace it.

**Welcome to the unknown paradise!** From waterfalls in the middle of the jungle to banana-shaped beaches passing through a national park , these islands of the Gulf of Guinea boast of being one of the least visited places on the planet and of being that exotic destination and **Paradise that you thought you could only dream of**. It is the part of land closest to the center of the planet - coinciding with the passage of the Equator and very close to the zero meridian. Are you coming on a trip to a country so unusual that few manage to locate it on the map? São Tomé marvels with their **Portuguese colonial mix**, beaches and the laid-back atmosphere in the Gulf of Guinea. To define themselves, Santotomenses use a very graphic expression, derived from Portuguese: they are leve-leve. That is, calm, relaxed. And it is that relaxation seems to preside over this country that is both the center and the end of the world. **It is not a tourist destination at all,** despite how much it has to offer like wild postcard beaches. A very important portion of virgin forest, declared a Biosphere Reserve, with the Ôbo Natural Park as the main banner, numerous cocoa plantations or coffee (known as roças). A country with dazzling landscapes with incredible volcanic chimneys emerging in the middle of nowhere, a huge number of endemic animal and plant species, as well as others such as sea turtles, birds and whales, which are part of the objective of many nature lovers visiting the country. The small country exhibits the traces of a troubled history that began when two Portuguese navigators landed in 1470 in this then deserted site. A story that is revealed to those who wander the streets of the capital (which is called, like the island, Santo Tomé). The parallel architectures of this tiny city summarize the history of the country: some old wooden huts evoke the initial time, when the islands were populated by slaves brought from the mainland. Some colonial buildings with large wooden balconies recall the five centuries of colonization. Uniform, greyish apartment blocks hark back to the era of real socialism, from independence in 1975 to the political and economic liberalization of the early 1990s. Meanwhile, a few ultramodern buildings made of large glass point to the future. The engine of the country's wealth and today constitutes one of its great cultural and tourist attractions: **las roças**. If it weren't for the insidious humidity, the visitor could have the sensation of landing on some sugar plantation in the Brazilian northeast: the same buildings with a colonial flavor, the same atmosphere of an old decayed empire. Also its train to transport the merchandise, as some old rails recall. **The most incredible landscapes on this side of the equator**, with various reminiscences of films such as Jurassic Park, King Kong as well as others in which the jungle is the setting. To top it off with a tropical fruit market, canoes with freshly caught fish, the smiles of the happy people of the islands and a veritable swarm of children jumping into the river to play as if there were no tomorrow. São Tomé and Príncipe will fill many blank pages on your adventure notebook. **MAY 24** Departure to Accra, connecting flight to STP. **MAY 25** Lagoa Amelia hike 3hrs, Almada Negreiros, story of chocolate, Cacau Espace. **MAY 26** Colonial rocas, past and present. **MAY 27** Waterfall and channels crossing. **MAY 28** Santana Islet, overnight at beach resort. **MAY 29** Rolas Islet, departure to Accra. **MAY 30** Relax by the pool and departure home. **Activities:** jungle trekking, swimming, boating, sightseeing. **Accommodation & meals:** 4 star comfy forest lodge + seaside eco-lodge, hotel in Ghana - double sharing. Most of (fine) meals included, meals on transfers (Ghana). **Cost: AED 8370 AED** all incl. flights to Sao Tome from Accra (Ghana). Flights to Ghana from your location excluded. **Cost valid until MAY 20.** Past this date please inquire about cost and availability. **Emirates DXB - ACC** at approx. 3500 AED. **Specifically excluded:** flights to Ghana, visas if any, meals in Ghana. **Visas:** Sao Tome: entry permit + visa payable on arrival, Ghana transit visa on arrival. *It is participant sole responsibility to assure admission to country of destination.* See yah in Green xx Trekkup Crew [Whatsapp 050484823](https://wa.me/971504848238) / [info@trekkup.com](info@trekkup.com) [Find all trekkups at linktr.ee/trekkup](https://linktr.ee/trekkup)

If you haven’t heard the term before, **Sapeurs are followers of a fashion culture** in Brazzaville and Kinshasa, members of the Society of Ambiance-Makers and Elegant People, made up of day labourers, taxi drivers, or even gardeners, but dressed to impress in dapper designer suits and treated like rock-stars in their communities for the joy and colour.

The Kuba village we will head to, is one of the remnants of what was once powerful 17th century empire. They are renowned for rich artistic traditions, particularly intricate geometric raffia textiles, and had a complex, centralized political system with a royal army and administration. **Day 3 // Voodoo ceremony** We start the day with traditional voodoo ceremony and continue taking in the best of Kinshasa, including National Museum and artisan galleries. **DAY 4 // Crossing to Brazzaville** In the morning we head to port for boat crossing to Brazzaville! Take in the Sapeurs performance on the other side and wander around town before we check-in to hotel. Enjoy a dinner and toast to our border crossing into the Republic! **Day 5 //** **Lowland Gorillas** **and Teke Kingdom** Departure to Lesio Louna Reserve for encounters with the **Lowland Gorillas.** Then we’re off to Mbé village to meet King Makoko in the capital of the old kingdom of the Tékés! Village elders will tell tales of the old kingdom, chiefs will paint their faces in red and yellow, and we’ll have a chance to talk to the King himself. After our encounters with kings, head to our lodge in Ngabé for dinner and rest. **Day 6 // Queen Ngalifuru and Kebe-Kebe in Ngabe** This morning we meet Queen Ngalifuru and deliver a few gifts as tribute. Be mindful, she has a few magical powers! We have much to explore and people to meet in Ngabé before the mystical dance of the Kébé-Kébé in the evening, a performance not to miss! We’ll spend the night in Ngabé lodge. **Day 7 // Nkila Ntari Caves and Punu Tribe** Very early breakfast before drive to the Nkila Ntari Caves where we’ll have a speleologist-led look around the rock arts and formations of this kilometre-long tunnel.
