"A bit of Cameroon & Me"

Cameroon, your next destination! Like the majority of African countries, Cameroon remains relatively unknown to the general public. Many travellers still have a confused image of the typical features among tourist continental destinations. Nevertheless, Cameroon stands out with a genuine identity expressing diversity and stability, modernity and traditions, dynamism and calm, at once.  In short, the country concentrates all the beauties of Africa; which explains why people consider that nobody could really discover Africa without having visited Cameroon. These videos are the first of a serie that will cover the all country in order for all visitors and tourists to have a significant idea of what to expect during their stay. Why you should visit? The country is full of melting and contrasting views, which provide tourists with a unique spectacle. This ancestral land relies on a symbiosis between sea and desert, waterfalls and Sahara area, temperate climat...

Or should I say "Accessories" from here and elsewhere :) This picture presents one of the products I couldn't leave behind, especially the one with the "Green, Red and Yellow" colours of the Cameroonian flag. I searched it for a long time and finally got the chance to take it back with me here. I don't quite remember their price but I will give you an estimation. These bangles costs 500 Cfa Francs each. I'm not selling anything here guys, just sharing with you some of the beautiful things I keep as souvenirs from my travels and journeys (rather than wearing them really hahaha) and if I'm overloaded with jewelries I'll gladly offer them to my precious Mom :) Elephant skin This one was bought in a flea market in South Africa, actually a man's accessory but it can also fit a woman's wrist. This peace of elephant skin was sold at a higher price around Zar 200.  I'm strongly against poaching and...

Above skies I left OR Tambo International Airport in South Africa in a hurry two weeks ago. I had to board my flight going to Jomo Kenyatta in Nairobi-Kenya at midnight and only realized that at - 40 minutes from the departure. Where was I?  Two hours before my husband and I started moving in all senses to catch my luggages, we were gently having a wonderful time watching "Skyfall" (such a good movie by the way ;) Didn't have time to have a proper goodbye episode that I was already in the air, exhausted to have beaten Usain Bolt sprint record and looking like a mushroom :) Resting in turbulences Here I am, watching the skies sometimes, sleeping the others or listening to music and praying to land safely in Douala International Airport from Kenya.  I barely ate on the plane because I didn't want to feel nauseous and beside what was served was not that yummy to my taste. The orange juice though was a pure wonder. Kenya Airways w...

Douala is the largest city in Cameroon and the economic powerhouse .  Home to Cameroon's largest port and its major international airport " Douala International Airport" , it is the commercial capital of the country. Consequently, it handles most of the country's major exports, such as oil , cocoa and coffee , timber, metals and fruits. "Bonanjo" I've spent 11 years of my life in Douala, especially in "Bonanjo" which is a residential area, not about all the crappy pictures that are listed on Google when you mention Douala. I'm still amazed of the fact that Cameroon, is so badly referenced when it comes to areas that are worth to discover. Would you like to see an image of Bonanjo? Here you go: This is the "Place du Gouvernement", small park area in the centre of Bonanjo and the monument behind is a Memorial to the First World War commemorating French and allied losses in Cameroon campaign against G...
