Badala Park Highway, P.O.Box 802 Kololi, Gambia, (220)-44-63-429
To Banjul from Monrovia was not a long journey distance-wise but involved a stop at Freetown and another in Dakar. Six hours to go not very far was a bit much and I was grateful to reach the hotel. Large rooms with not much decoration inside and the internet didn't seem to work in spite of protestations by the management - it turned out that the modem must get switched off by the IT person when they went home at night - do your e-mails during working hours - pity that I'm out working during t...
Banjul, Banjul, Gambia douglasball... Norden aus ueb** diesen Teil des Kontinents blaest und von Novemb** bis Februar fu** etwas Entlastung bei den Temp**aturen sorgt. Die Sichtweite und damit auch die Sonneneinstrahlung ist waehrend diesen Monaten stark eingeschraenkt, da die Luft voll** Sand ist und somit alles ziemlich diesig **scheint. Damit haben wir auch eines d** Hauptprobleme Tourismus in Westafrika angesprochen: Die wirklich "p**fekte" Zeit hi**h** zu kommen ist sehr knapp bemessen ...
Kololi, Gambia brisko... Geschrei von Bintas Sohn Mara unterbrochen, der mit schwarzer Pampe ueberstroehmt herumrannte und sich allem Anschein nach dem Farbtopf, mit dem Chris gestern das Tor frisch gestrichen hatte, ueber den Kopf geleert hatte. Dibas und meine Versuche, das Zeug vor dem Eintreffen der Alten mit Seife wieder wegzubekommen, scheiterten klaeglich. Waehrend Mara also wie am Spiess schreiend meinte, fuer immer mit schwarzer Farbe auf seinen Armen und seinem Bauch herumlaufen zu ...
Kololi, Gambia brisko... cooler und lustiger Typ um die 50 rum und total gebildet: Geboren in Gambia, erstes Studium im Sierra Leone, dann nach Europa und in Antwerpen Autos zum Verkauf in Westafrika besorgt, von dem Geld zwei Haeuser gebaut und sein Studium der Internationalen Beziehungen in England finanziert, ne Weile im Aussenministerium Gambias gearbeitet, was ihm aber dann zu langweilig wurde, danach nach Frankreich gegangen, Franzoesisch gelernt, Franzoesischlehrer geworden, was ...
Kololi, Gambia brisko... Afrikan**n im fruehmorgendlichen Halbdunkel traute ich mich nicht, irgendwelche Fotos zu machen, ab** es ist auch kein sehr tolles Bild: Ein riesiges Areal total zugestellt mit Kleinbussen, Taxis und and**en Schrottautos. Haetten mich nicht gleich funf Typen gefragt, wos denn hingehen soll, haette ich nie im Leben den richtigen "Steig" (haha) gefunden. Dort wartete dann ein noch le**** Minibus mit Platz fu** knapp 14 Leute, d** mich zur senegalesisch-gambianischen Grenze bei Karang ...
Kololi, Gambia brisko... As well as the usual small stalls selling soaps, clothes, fabrics and household items, there was also lorry loads of millet, peanuts, flour, rice, salt and other unidentifiable sacks. With so much on offer my goal was to eat something I had not tried before. What looked like a stew turned out to be tripe. I ate half of it and left the rest.. Next to the omelette stall, chats with the locals about the market tomorrow and ...
Banjul, Gambia jnewcomb... I then added insult to injury by chasing after him and attempting to make it up to him by offering him chocolate cake. I am extremely lucky Ramadan is also about forgiveness. Saturday was a sight to behold. Hundreds of people were out on the streets dressed in their new outfits, the scent of cooking eminated from every compound, music was pumping and children scampered everywhere hyped up on the pursuit of Salibou (basically the ...
Banjul, Gambia sweet2thlh... what is a sort of Lebanese refugee elite in the Gambia. From a couple vague comments we've heard, it seems they stand out in the society to a c**tain extent, which is renowned for its friendliness and acceptance (celebrating Christmas with the same excitement and solidarity that people obs**ve Ramadan. We've learned this week that even Christians and agnostics refrain from eating, smoking, or drinking in the streets during Ramadan.) Though I do not mean to draw gen**alizations, it ...
Serekunda, Gambia adminor... off that project. one very important thing we have learned is that "Canadians have watches but Gambians have time" I am in a new time zone, GMT or Gambia Maybe Time. if you are told to be somewhere at noon, finish your lunch and be there by 2ish and you will be early. unfortunately the counters in the Internet cafes arnt like that and i have to finish up. I just want to say thanks to everyone who helped me out with this journey, I am having an amazing time
Sanyang, Gambia kylevandelft... you names but it is true. It is not a treatment that I speculate on. I am not doing it for money or popularity. The mandate I have is that HIV/Aids cases can be treated on Thursdays. That is the good news and the bad news is that I cannot treat more than ten patients every Thursday. There is nothing I can do about it and if I go beyond that I will have to pay the price. For asthma, I have to choose between Saturday and Friday. I am also not authorised to treat more ...
