In the 1400 Portuguese sailed along the coast of west Africa where were they heading and why?

they were heading to southern Africa and why becauseThe Portuguese Empire (Portuguese: Império Português) was the first global empire in history, with territories in South America, Africa, India and South East Asia. It was also the longest lived of the modern European colonial empires, spanning almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta in 1415 to the handover of Macau in 1999.

Portuguese explorers began exploring the coast of Africa in 1419, making use of the latest developments in navigation, cartography and maritime technology such as the caravel, in order that they might find a sea route to the source of the lucrative spice trade. In 1488, Bartolomeu Dias rounded the Cape of Good Hope, and in 1498, Vasco da Gama reached India. In 1500, by an accidental landfall on the South American coast for some, by the crown's secret design for others, Pedro Álvares Cabral would find and lead to the establishment of the colony of Brazil. Over the following decades, Portuguese sailors continued to explore the coasts and islands of East Asia, establishing forts and factories as they went. By 1571, a string of outposts connected Lisbon to Nagasaki: the empire had become truly global, and in the process brought great wealth to Portugal.

What does A person of words and not deeds is like a garden full of weeds mean?

Sounds like both words and deeds are necessary; you can't get by on just one of them.

It's a metaphor, a comparison. you're supposed to follow the story run like you're imagining a man full of words but no deeds is like a garden full of weeds, when the man is the garden and his words are the weeds that exist there, covering what he really wants, or what he has no courage to do. it depends on weither u face the "deeds" as positive things, as things u say u'll do, or as negative things. then u just follow it. "the weeds begin to grow, it's like a garden full of snow", it's like a covered garden, it's like a covered man, who shutters himself inside, forgeting his words, doing no deeds at all. Then u keep this logic and u may reach a conclusion.
