 Hello my People! Remember when I told you about all my road trips this Summer ? I mentionned that I visited Tambacounda but also Pink Lake and Somone. Therefore, today I will tell you about the day we had at the Pink Lake. Le Lac Rose or pink lake is a lake located at around 30 km from Dakar. The lake is unusually pink, which makes it a tourist spot in Senegal. It also has become one of the nation's biggest tourist traps with people offering boat rides, quad rides and other activites.  Salut a tous ! Vous souvenez vous de mon dernier billet sur mes voyages en voiture cet été ? J'ai mentionné que j'avais visité Tambacounda mais aussi Le Lac Rose et la Somone. Aujourd'hui, je vais donc vous parler de la journée que nous avons eue au Lac Rose. Le Lac Rose situé à environ plus de 30 km de Dakar. Le lac est exceptionnellement rose, ce qui en fait un lieu touristique au Sénégal. Il est également devenu l'un des plus grands pièges à touristes du pays avec des personnes pr

 Hello my dear readers!  This Summer it was all about road trips. I think that between July and August, I travelled around 1500 km in this little country of mine.

Tous les voyages étaient pour le plaisir sauf le dernier qui était pour le travail. At the beginning of July, I went to The Gambia for a short trip. It was not really a summer holiday. It was a family reunion on my father's side. Some of his siblings have not seen each other in 20 years so they decided to all come down to the Gambia to celebrate what would have been my Grandad's 100th birthday. I did not want to miss it for the wo

  Hello everyone!  Are you enjoying summer? Well I am trying. I am in a constant mood of going out. I have been out quite a lot with family and friends. Recently I went out to dine with a friend at a local hotel located in the Fann area: Hotel Le Djoloff. I have heard of this hotel for a while but I have never thought about going there. I have to say that I had quite a surprising visit there. Salut à tous. Est-ce que votre été se passe bien ? Moi j’essaie de profiter de ce temps assez clément ces derniers jours. J’ai toujours envie de sortir. Je suis  déjà  all é e a des soirees entre copines. Récemment je me suis rendue à l’hôtel Le Djoloff qui se trouve à Fann près de Soumbédioune. J’avais déjà entendu parler de cet hotel mais je n’avais jamais pensé à y aller jusqu’à ce que mon ami m’y invite. Je dois reconnaitre que j’y ai eu une agréable soirée. Hotel Le Djoloff is tucked away in a neighborhood not far from the university. A ctually, it was the first neighborhood I reside
