Guinea Bissao, a small, green country that smells of slightly fermented Cashewnut fruit and where people speak Creol-Portugese...
In Gambia locals told me: "Don't go to the Senegalese province of Casamance. It's full of active rebels, it's dangerous." All I found in Casamance was hospitable, drumming, happy people, wide beaches and warm ocean. But they warned me there: "Don't go to Guiena Bissao. There's a war there. And all the rebels from Casamance moved there." OK, when I was passing the border area yesterday, I saw a lot of heavily armed soldiers but here, in the interior of the country it's peaceful and quiet.
So, just quick greetings from Bissao, because internet is expensive here, powered from a massive generator - even here in the capital they don't have regular electricity everywhere...
