If you're up for it- check out the fight from Sunday. Large men. But the fight is still very skillful. I found myself arguing with my mother, sister, and the maid yesterday about how exactly Yekini beat Tyson II. Everyone is into lutte, or lamb in Wolof. This is the superbowl.
Do yourself a favor and start at 6:00 minutes into the video. Notice screaming in Wolof. This language no longer sounds strange at all to me.
Schwa in Dakar.
My name is Emily a.k.a. əmily (read Schwamily). I'm studying abroad in Dakar, Senegal for my last semester of college. I go to Duke and UNC Chapel Hill, worked previously with a great org in Kenya, and am hoping to start a career in public health when I return. In this blog I will record my (mis)adventures and give tips for other students who want to travel abroad. Bon voyage!
