A trip in Mauritania is a trip in the middle of nowhere, in the “Big Nothing” (Le Grand Vide, as the French colonialist called the country). No cities (Nouanchott, the capital, was founded in 1960), no “monuments”, no “cultural events”, no “nightlife”, etc. So, why a trip to Mauritania? Because in “the big nothing” about 2.700.000 people live, with their history, languages, custom, culture, art… Because meeting people and sharing experiences is worth doing everywhere.</font> <p><font color='#003399'><font size=”+3”><b><center>I wish you all a little bit of West Africa. </font></b></center> |

And I liked the tip about asking permission before you take a picture, aint nothing i dislike more than seeing tourist pushing their cameras in locals faces !! | SLLiew Tue Jan 9, 2007 13:21 UTC Titti, Enjoyed a wonderful virtual tour of Mauritania. Do as the Romans do - sleep in the tents! Noted that your introduction showed that you have use HTML markers - VT support only VTML and it is easy to use. Cheers, SL | Nemorino Sat Sep 9, 2006 11:34 UTC Lovely photos and insightful tips. It must be great to sleep in a tent in the desert. (Thanks for your help on the Verona Forum.) |
