I finally made it to Senegal, and I’m so glad I did.
In this video, I take you with me to Dakar, where I share my honest experience traveling through the city — from the peaceful energy of the people, to the walkable neighborhoods, the powerful visit to Gorée Island (the Door of No Return), and of course... the food (Senegalese food might just be my favorite in all of Africa).
As a multi-ethnic woman living between Africa and Europe, this trip left a lasting impression on me — one that touched my soul, reconnected me to my roots, and reminded me why we need more positive, nuanced conversations about Black travel across Africa.
Whether you’re planning your own trip or curious about West Africa, this recap is filled with cultural insights, emotional moments, and honest reflections on what it means to “make it back.”
