Funny Africa

We are so used to negative images of Africa that we compiled this funny African collection of pictures, videos and funny Africa facts. You might be wondering why we included this in a site predominately about volunteering and work opportunities in Africa. It's quite simple really. Although Africa faces many challenges, just like many other areas of the world, it is rich in diversity and its peoples often grind out a difficult daily existence with a broad, warm and welcoming African smile. African humour itself is diverse and can be found in many forms, including jokes, puns, and satire. African humour often reflects the continent’s rich cultural heritage, history, and traditions with many African jokes based on wordplay, irony, and exaggeration, poking fun at everyday situations and human behaviour. Some African jokes are also political in nature, and humour is used to comment on social and current events.
