It's close but I would probably pick South America because I think it has more natural beauty, e.g. Andes and Patagonia. Also aside from a few placed in Africa South America is easier to travel around. Africa Is culturally more interesting and has more large fauna.

Natural scenery: South America

Fauna: Africa

Cultural diversity: Africa

Ease of travel: South America

In Africa I'd visit South Africa, Tanzania, Ethiopia and Egypt, in South America Peru, Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador and Chile first.

Africa probably. It just seems more exotic.

I think its a little unfair since i think we have more South American members than Africans and they are most likey to vote for their continent.

Ill be honest and say i am biased for South America because i can relate more to it and find it more interesting.

What i do want to learn more is about Africa. I already know a general sense of the culture and history of South America.

Im biased towards South America, having lived there, and would love to go back. I would like to visit several countries in Africa also though, but my vote is for South America.

Africa... because I live already in South America.
But only in more stable countries such as South Africa, Namibia or Botswana.

I voted south america, but I think that africa has more to offer and would take much longer to explore.

I have been to South America 3 times, so I would prefer to visit Africa. Several times I came close, then a war broke out and stopped me. Most recently, the civil war in Egypt. In two weeks I am going to South Africa and Swaziland (if something doesn't stop me). I am really excited!
