About this blog

Hello!

For anyone interested, this blog will detail my experiences as a Tubab in The Gambia, a small, beautiful, friendly, crazy country in West Africa surrounded on three sides by Senegal. I'll talk about my experiences with the people and the language, about trying to get by in Serekunda, as a student at the University of the Gambia, my trips up country, and a resident of the beautiful compound lovingly called happy camp. I hope you enjoy it!
