Weekend in Siby








We decided to get out of the bustle of bamako - and head to the countryside. Siby is 40km outside of Bamako - towards the Guinea border. Mr. Sekou Camera guided us on a hike in the hot sun, to see the rock arch of Siby and we enjoyed chatting with people we met around town...

Settling in Bamako!


Well, we are getting things in order here in Bamako! We thought we put up some pictures of the house...click here. There are more to come. We visited a radio stations in KATI, 15 km north of Bamako where a community radio stations is running well. Olivier got an idea of the type of radio center he will be putting together. We took a moto ride this Sunday up into the hilly area around Kati, and it was beautiful and green due to the rainy season.
