Now flying Africa with much fun and little real regulations.

Hot&High is my daily threat, runways are mostly dirt strips, people are mostly extraordinary friendly (apart from buttheads, but that's no difference to Europe). Avgas can be more expensive then gold and you learn quickly that the old Continentals take astonishing bad fuel from the car tap without whining - they even run on banana instead of aero oil in case of emergency. It is a relief to be away from the clinical airborne operations back to just flying the machine.
