Siby Adventures - starring Maxime Gras

Olivier's friend Maxime is in Bamako and we decided to take a little moto adventure to Siby... We enjoyed seeing Mali covered in green once again.


Maxime and a little yellow chinese moto...


Chinese moto breaks down in the middle of nowhere and Maxime hangs on to our Moto until we find the next village!


The mechanic in the next village is on vacation. Maxime looks on as they put little yellow chinese bike into a van on its way to Siby.


Happy to be in Siby - finally


Hike to the "Arche" of Siby

Le retour

Weekend Break...in Dakar and the Petit Cote


Time to relax on the beach for a few days.... Olivier spent a few difficult weeks up in the North of Mali for work. We decided to take a quick trip to relax and see the ocean.


We came across an amazing catch of swordfish...



We stayed in Somone, in a great bungalow, right on the ocean...
