After the soaring in the air, I was keen for more excitement. It only took my one-hour from Sousse out to the largest Roman monument in Africa - Thysdrus (El Jem). Through a flat desert landscape I was approaching the El Jem.

Has Stonehenge, near London, connections to other stone monuments around the world? For example in Bretagne in France, Traelleborg in Denmark, and Uppsala in Sweden, there are mysterious stone circles and monoliths. Also at the ancient city Tiahuanaco in Bolivia, there are monoliths. In Peru there are many different kind of huge stone monuments shaped so well that some people believe that no humans have been able to construct it - see the Nazca lines, the Cuzco area and other places in the country. Not forget the Great Pyramid in Egypt - Giza.

Stonehenge is an English Heritage outside London at Salisbury. It`s a great ancient wonder in the world. This incredible stone monument is older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt and it`s still a mystery. Some questions are:
Why, how and who built the Stonehenge?

Would it be a mystery for forever?

When it comes to cultural and archaeological treasures, Peru must be one of the most exciting places in the world. The whole country is a treasure chamber with an endless source. It's almost impossible to keep updated with all the great discoveries there. Some of them are Inca ruins at Llactapata near Machu Picchu, Inca ruins called Cota Cota near Machu Picchu, the oldest City in the New World in Caral, near Lima, mummies in Tupac Amaru, a shantytown on the outskirts of Lima. What more will be found in the future?

Helsink is real rock`n roll. To have real fun in Helsinki, I could not think of a better place than Zetor. The discothèque is decorated with humorous interior and has a countryside style. Here the locals show what the Finnish word "Sisu" means. Soumi Rokkia make your party unforgetable, especially if you can dance among tractors.

From the Brazilian side, an expedition was set out 8 June 2002 intended to find an certain unconctacted tribe in the Amazon. After two week of river travel and 20 days bushwhacking, participants could see the first signs of the Indians.

Pumas are nocturnal. They are big cats and found throughout the rainforest in the Amazon. Me and my friends where desperate to observe a puma on our expedition, but when we felt the presence of what we thought was a puma, it was quite scary!
