Still out of Africa.
Yes, the wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_evolution#Dispersal_of_m...) has more information than the article linked by the GP.
Most North American scientists agree that Asia isn't really in Africa per se. Perhaps this news hasn't reached your corner of the world.
Africa -> Asia -> Europe

Africa -> ... -> Europe

Africa is still where it started.

No, the ocean is where it started.

If we're going to speak meaningfully about where Europeans come from, we need to include wherever they picked up Neanderthal DNA (hint: not in Africa; no African population has it).
