I want to start planning a trip to Africa, has anyone ever been?

[Smurfy]

I figure I'll use my medical profession to get me over there for free. Once I'm there I'll be providing medical care to villages and locals. My girlfriend is from Kenya and also a nurse, so she'll be going with me to help and to visit friends and family. We'll have a few days to do whatever we want, i was thinking of getting one of those secluded safari huts with nothing but netting for doors and the whole structure is on stilts so you don't get mauled in your sleep.

Has anyone ever been? Any sites or advice you would recommend?

wtf? you have an African gf? you didnt run this by me.

Not directly I didn't, I posted a thread about it and even posted up a picture for a brief time. She's Indian actually but was born and raised in Kenya until the age of 18, then lived a couple yrs in France and England. She can speak 6 languages fluently, absolutely blows my mind. She's crazy smart. next time you're in town we will go out so you can give me the ok, i will put things on hold until then
