On the roof a a friend’s house in Nakasero, Kampala back in 2006, I went through a crate of discarded items he and a few other artists had gathered. On that day, I was looking for something, and I found the lion. Something about the hollowed out, paint chipped toy appealed to my understanding of this amazing continent: I’d never seen a real lion, after all.

I’ve never been to Nigeria, but with every single piece of Naija related media I see, I want to more and more.
Also on my list: Mauritania, Mali, Ivory Coast (trip planned for March!), Burundi, Mozambique, Swaziland, Namibia, Eritrea. Etc.

such a great link. I agree with dickie, mozambique is great. I still have 42 countries to visit in Africa
Naija on my list too, I think I am too much of a coward to go. Need to make some reliable contacts first.
