Jan.27,2012Have you ever heard of São Tomé and 
Principe? No? Well I didn’t think so. These are two very small islands off the coast of Equatorial Guinea, and together they form the smallest state in Africa.
The islands were originally discovered and colonized by the Portuguese is the late 15th century. They then started using slaves to work in the sugar plantations and subsequently became one of the biggest exporters of sugar in Africa. In the 19th century they started growing what is considered to be some of the finest coffee and cacao in the world.
Today this island has transformed itself into something truly extraordinary; paradise, untouched by the masses of tourists. Beautiful turquoise waters, unexplored jungles and some of the best coffee and chocolate in the world make this island one of the last true paradises on earth.
