Cool Going to Africa ?

Well, I've just about given up on finding a job in the UK in the near future and am considering taking a trip to Africa to go knocking on doors.

My question is, and this is assuming than I am sucessful in my quest, is when I return to the UK after 1 or 2 years flying round Africa, how is a potential employer going to view my flying experience.

Will flying round the bush, mostly VFR etc.. count against me, or will the experience enhance my job prospects ? Will I have restricted my self to flying in Africa for the rest of my life ? Or do the hours and experience still count ?

Any thoughts, anyone been there already ?

Cheers
