I've always wanted to go to Africa. I don't know why, but it just intrigues me.
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing left in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!' ...you'll be a Man, my son!
Rudyard Kipling
Satan, bite the dust!

I know a pastor in St Helena. It is an island with a rich history... though not all of it is "good history", if you know what I mean. Part of the good history is that many of the churches there were built for the Boer POW's and are still standing today, and there are reports of a mighty move of God (revival) among the POW's during the war.
I'd like to see it since it played a big role in the formation of my country all those years ago.

Boer POWs were sent there when the British caught them, so it has a lot of history to it as well.
Edit: Also a former Zulu king (who was dethroned by Shaka, I think) lived in exile there and his descendants still live on the island.
Oh yes - it has black beaches. The sand is black because its actually volcanic ash. Interesting feature, I must say.
