Life In The Bushes: KAFOUNTINE, CASAMANCE (SENEGAL)

Life in the bushes in the rural community of Kafountine, Casamance (Senegal)

I stayed for a couple of weeks in the rural community in Kafountine, living in a compound in the middle of the bushes!
In this video I show you a little bit of my daily routine: some work, some walks in the bushes, discovering the small town..

This video brought a big smile to my face. How you described the shower was magnificent. We Africans take the view for granted. It takes someone from outside our communities to make us realise what a beautiful continent we have. The coconut, the small animals on the streets, the nature, the washing with the hands, the freshness of the fruits and fruits, the lack of haste in the villages. In short, the uncomplicated village life. Things we don't always appreciate. The simplicity of it all. We are a rich people constantly being made to believe we are poor to provide new clients/markets to the insatiable hunger of capitalism and greed.

What a beautiful video, it was so nice to watch you and time flew by so quickly, that I was sad when the video ended already. You are so talented to cut and film your videos! It feels so authentic and inspiring:) how did you actually find/ get to know the place you stayed and worked at?
