    What To Buy: The Kabye people are also famed for their pottery. This pot is very traditional to the village and is used in everyday cooking and storing of food. They also make them not just for their own use, but also to sell in the market. Two of our party bought these pots and paid next to nothing for them – just a couple of dollars. I don’t know how easy they would be to transport home, of if they would be suitable for conventional ovens, but they would look very decorative on the mantelpiece at home.

     Very cool page. I was only briefly in Togo and wish I could have seen more. The millet beer I had in Mali, well I had a hard time not gagging on the spot.
