Africa has a wide selection of such places, but there is a fairly high chance any 'adventures' may be interrupted by child soldiers.

Funny you would say that, I am in West Africa right now.

I have explored 15 countries in about as many months, never seen a single Child soldier.

Please, please don't just parrot things out when you clearly don't know what you are talking about.

There are about (estimated) 300,000 child soldiers in the world at the moment and Africa is home to about 120,000 of them at the moment. So to imply there are a lot of child soldiers in Africa is not unreasonable.
