Digital collage. Subject: Ile de Gorée. One of the most beautiful places on earth, I think. To see dam, because the history is anything but pretty. Gorée was an important port for slavery Here slaves were traded, detained and from here enslaved people were shipped to America. On the island, time seems to have stood still, in terms of architecture. And in terms of traffic: there are no cars's, motorbikes, mopeds, buses, nothing. Only a few handcarts and the rubbish cart is pulled by a donkey.
The architecture is stunning. Antique houses in earth tones. A feast for the eyes. And super cosy!
