Giuseppe Piero Filotto was born in Italy in 1947. He began studying Civil Engineering but soon redirected his passion to Karate after the arrival of Japanese martial arts in Europe. A subsequent injury and need to provide for his family saw him leave for Africa in his mid twenties. He now lives in Botswana and after having sold both his contruction company and Private Security Company, he decided to write this book about Africa (Nigeria and Botswana): A journey seen through the eyes of a young man who fell in love with this Continent and chose to grow old in it. This unique book recounts a journey few have undertaken: a young European man, influenced by Japanese martial art culture, seeking his place in Africa. Its story is one of discovery, immersion, and a passion for Africa and African life that would see Giuseppe, body and soul, close the door to the Western world and forever become part of Africa. His hope is that this book will not only make you understand Africa, but make you feel Africa.
