My good friend Barbara asked me this weekend what was the most surprising thing about Dakar for me. Great question! On reflection, I would say it's the physical chaos and lack of beauty. The second most surprising thing is how relatively not difficult it has been to get used to.
When I got to Dakar at 6:30am, I discovered that the person meant to me me wasn't there and my contact's phone wasn't working. A lovely man named Ali, who (I thought) worked for the airport, took me in hand and brought me to Yoff based on my information that I would be staying near Ecobank.
