Home at last

Home at last 33hrs after departing Dakar, Senegal. Thanks to Aero contractor for adding an extra unbudgeted day to my trip.

The trip was approached with a certain amount of trepidation due to the envisaged language barrier. In fact I had earlier planned to go on this trip back in September 2018 but swapped it last minute for Kenya for the same reason. I must say communicating was a major challenge especially with taxi drivers as most didn't understand English. The young professionals however know a bit of cut and join English which they learnt in School.

Overall I will say the trip was very relaxing being that I spent more time enjoying the beach resort unlike the Kenya trip where I spent 2 days on Mombasa city tour and Tsavo East Safari. Saly didn't have any other attraction beside the beach. The 10 day timing was also very ideal and seems like the optimum duration for any future vacation.Read more
