In this episode, I ride to the north of Togo, and cross the border into Benin there. A full day on tarmac and it's quite different from what I encounter on dirt roads. Many bad accidents with trucks and countless broken down trucks on the road. Riding on tarmac here seems a lot more dangerous then riding on dirt roads! The north part of Togo and Benin are very similar to each other. The people still have traditional Tata Somba houses here and scarification is still commonly practiced.
