Waiting for volcano

Story of braving a great ash eruption, flight cancellations, long queues under baking hot sun in Malian capital Bamako and discovering the best caffee in town that actually serves a proper Italian espresso and above all making it back home.

RTS: Yoff plage

Story of a simple stroll around Yoff, a suburb in Dakar, Senegal on my last afternoon in the country before scheduled return to Bamako, Mali. Discovery of a local gym on the beach, followed by a proper fish market right there on the sandy beach and all wrapped up with a nice cold bottle of La Gazelle in a plastic stool.

Destination Sénégal

Story of trying to go to Lomé, Togo to buy a car and drive trough Benin, Togo, Ghana and Burkina Faso back to Bamako, Mali but ending up going to Dakar, Sénégal instead.
