MALI - I left my heart there......

by tini58de - last update: Dec 20, 2006

This was my first trip to Africa ever!!! And it was the beginning of a lifelong fascination!!! We went from the Senegal through Mali across the Sahara through Algeria all the way to Tunis and I had the time of my life!

I was so fascinated by the colors there, by the laughter of the people and couldn't get enough looking at those wonderful women, who are graceful, cheerful and strong although they definitely don't have an easy life!

I took quite a few pictures and later put them into my theme calendar "Women of the World". If you like, have a look at the travellogue!

This trip was the reason, why I decided to become a sponsor of a child in Mali through PLAN INTERNATIONAL. And through my fosterchild's letters I learn to love this country even more! If you, too, are curious, have a look at the fosterchild travellogue!
