    • The main risk is “mal d’Africa” (help me to translate!).
    I was walking with a friend in a very lonely place, when I realised that I’ve spent a lot of time walking around alone, in the desert, in darkness, without any feeling of fear.
    Don’t travel alone in the desert; but this is just a matter of common sense.
    About malaria ask health care in your country before leaving. Vaccination against yellow fever is not mandatory, unless you’re coming from an infected area.

     Thanks for the tips, I hope to make this trip happen pretty soon ! 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 !!

     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 12:34 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.)
