abgelegt unter Afrika
Es lohnt mal wieder auf der Seite von Bernward Elsel vorbeizuschauen. Der Erlanger ist mit seinem Tandem-Fahrrad mittlerweile in Afrika angekommen. Nach einem Abstecher über Jemen geht es bald zurück auf den afrikanischen Kontinent, wo er bis Kapstadt weiterradeln möchte. Aktuelle Berichte finden sich auf seiner Seite www.bike-together.de

The crazy guy from Gambia is back in The Gambia!!!

First of all a big excuse that I let you guys wait so long without updating my column. And the bad news is that I got nothing to excuse myself for not writing. Just the lazy bit of me which I intend to disassociate myself from. I however want you to know that I came back in one whole piece, and I had to do a lot of talking about my impressions of Europe and the Europeans. Yeah, I told them quite a lot!!! But not everything.
FAF Gambia welcomed me back home, as did my family and friends, and they all appreciated very much the successful exchange visit that was organized for me. We had some fruitful discussions about the way forward. Right now we’re to embark on a project geared toward helping a nursery school nearby as an approach to representing FAF as a charitable club. We will be trying some of the methodologies which in our opinion may be good and can be practicable here. I learnt a lot from Rolf and the others while I was there. More to come later.

Crazy goes to Barcelona

It was quite warm in Barcelona. My good old pal, Bob Pedro, was right there to pick me up. We took the train to meet his lovely wife, Leslsy, who was waiting for us at home. Rice and Honduran stew ready to be served. Probably due to my long relation with Bob, but largely due to Lesley herself, I felt very much relaxed. That Saturday evening, we met a close Gambian friend of mine in one of the famous pedestrian streets in Barcelona. This friend and I had shared the same compound, the very compound where we hosted some dieweltreisenden guys (Rolf, Roland, Uwei and Christiani) in 2005. The streets were overflowing with tourist from all corners of the world, and there were many different kinds of entertainment. The next two days were pretty crowded; Bob wanted me to see so many places of interest in just three days.

Tower takes Crazy to TV Tower

The visit to the TV tower in Stuttgart was very spectacular for me. The view from the 150m height was really, really nice. We had already been to the wind mill on Thursday 5th July, another impressive structure that is used to generate energy. Tower was particularly happy to show me this mill and before that, two solar panel installations. He said they provide free energy and that helps to reduce the pollution of the environment.
Tower, Lia and I made our first stop at the home of his parents. We had an evening meal together, and his sister joined us later for a chat. She, like few other Germans, surprised me a lot. I had to ask if she already knew me before, and that I would be there with her parents.
