Santo Antão

We've been travelling for three weeks now, though it feels like a lot longer. I can't believe it has only been twenty one days since we left Morocco. So much has happened since then, and our days have been so full.On the other hand, we're already at one third or our trip, which makes it seem like a lot, especially as we've only done four countries so far.  Maybe I also have this impression that it's been longer, because no days resembled the previous. We've changed quite frequently places, and we haven't had a single day in which we did nothing, or even just sat by the beach, reading.
Meanwhile, we're in what I expected to be the highlight of our trip: Senegal and Cabo Verde. After Fogo, we're now on Santo Antão, the hiking island. So far, we've done three hikes, through misty hilltops and lush valleys, very impressive though not too touristy. So nice to really "do" something, to be active.

Cabo Verde is quite a breath of fresh air for us, easy transportation, nice blend of  Africa and Europe, with each ot the islands with its own character and assets.

I do hope the rest of the trip won't disappoint, after these last few days...
