After being in Dakar, exposed to as western of a lifestyle as any Peace Corps Volunteer could obtain, for three years, there aren't too many things from back in the US that perk my eyes.

I will say, tonight, at a place down the street called Ganales, which I can say I know the employees by name and they call me Justin, not Aziz...it has taken a handful of visits, but on the televisions (they have satellite) were highlights from the Quail Hollow Open in Charlotte, NC. I must say, I got excited...you can watch NBA playoffs, but not impressed. I've been following the coverage in the Charlotte papers, but to see international coverage of the green fairways of a course you grew up near from a developing country was really nice.

So far from having to mow the grass, but so close to seeing the greens.

Dakar Guide - Spring 2009 Edition

I didn't think it would take this long to get it up here, but this is a guide to Dakar, now in its third or fourth edition, that myself and fellow Volunteer Peter Treut have put together. While it is geared towards a Peace Corps Volunteer in Senegal, it can be a great resource to anyone visiting Dakar. Enjoy!
