"Why Did No One Tell Me Senegal Was THIS Amazing?!" 🇸🇳✨
Just left my 28th African country (The Gambia) yesterday—departed Banjul at 7:45 AM, arrived in Dakar (Country #29!) by 10 PM. 🏡 First Stop: A Heartwarming Homestay My hosts? A French/Greek couple who’ve worked in African development & human rights for 29 years! Their beachfront home greeted me with a wall of adorable kids’ photos—instant cozy vibes. ❤️ 🌅 Day 295 of Travel: Woke Up Like This Slept in, then realized—this house is an aesthetic DREAM! ☕ Slow breakfast + ocean gazing = peak chill mode activated. 🚶♂️ 5-Min Walk to Magic 📍 Place du Souvenir Africain (Free entry!) Zero expectations, but insta-worthy views + epic seaside vibes! 📸 📍 Henriette-Bathily Women’s Museum (1,000 XOF) 📍 Sea Plaza Mall (Dakar’s fanciest shopping—right there!) 📍 Buddhatitude Spa (Randomly stumbled upon heavenly massages!) 🐴 Surreal City Mix Donkey carts clip-clopping beside sleek Mercedes on pristine roads—somehow, it just works. Two hours in, and I’m OBSESSED. Dakar, you’re full of surprises! #Dakar #Senegal #AfricaTravel #SlowTravel #FindYourVibe 🌍💫
