A year ago I realized that in order to see Senegal we would need a cultural interpreter, a guide, and thus we met Almamy Badiane. In the time since, Almamy has become a close friend to many of us at ISD. It was through Almamy's generosity and kindness that the contact with Yorro was arranged last winter, as well as the exploration of the Medina fetish market. He has become an increasingly important asset to the ISD community, arranging excursions for staff, classes, and families.
I have appointed myself Almamy's business manager (lower case), setting myself to help expand his guiding opportunities, beginning with the printing of a new advert, shown above.
The photos above were taken with Plage de Ouakam and the Mosque of the Divine in the background.
