"Another Weekend, Another Island" or "Super Bowl Sunday... In Senegal"

Best weekend ever.

I said i might give up camera for Lent, but all my friends say this is a stupid idea.

My roommate turns 21






Ile de Ngor

My friends swam to the island. Me JG and Martha got stuck lugging their bags on the boat.

Centreville: kadjinol station. big empty beautiful space where they serve food and play movies











saturday night: senegalese friends take my roommate and i out dancing. the party starts at 2 and ends at 5 and because theyre muslim, there is no alcohol involved
