Slavery
7 listopada 2015, Senegal ⋅ 25 °C
What you see from the perspective of the boat where I am, is Ile Gorée.
It's they Island wher most of the Westafrican slaves were shipped to Las America.
We went to see one of the still intact (!) houses where the slaves were kept. Not only fron the Senegal but also many other Westafrican countries.
Nigerian women were especially desirable because they were strong and prolific.
They would kidnapp them, rape them, wait until the baby is born, raise the baby and then sell the child. Horrific.
The rooms you see are where the slaves lived. So many of them that they had to sleep in turns. Fed once a day, slaves fighting for the food. Czytaj więcej

The family
7 listopada 2015, Senegal ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
My preferred way to visit a country - staying with local people. The hospitality and kindness they showed were incredible. I had the chance thru my friend Mohamed to stay with his family. In the big house on the outskirt of Dakar are living;
Both his parents, one brother and two sisters with their spouses and there kids and the goats in the rooftoop. Overall 12 persons.
During meals it's the time where everybody comes together. There is a lot of laughter, discussions about politics, religion, sport, news but also the moment to talk about family issues. The food was always excellent. Mohamed's mother is the chef, queen of the kitchen (and of the family). She has two maids and their daughters which help.
I learned a lot about how they interpret the Koran on how to manage relationships in the family and the neighbourhood but also how one has to conduct oneseelf in the community. They look at the Koran as a guide for daily live.
In the Senegal Muslims anmd Christian live peaceully together, side by side. Czytaj więcej

Bachelorette Party
7 listopada 2015, Senegal ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
The event took place on a rooftop terrace. The ladies were all dolled up and so beautiful. The bride has to be tempted by the musicians with music. To make sure she really wants to marry the one guy.
