Le Soleil

In my first book, "Le Soleil," I take you on a captivating adventure through the breathtaking Senegal of the 80s. During my stay with Elhadji and his family, which lasted about one month, we embarked on unforgettable journeys to Lac Rose, Gorée Island, and Kaolack. Elhadji introduced me to Quartier Kebe Der in Guédiawaye Dakar, where I experienced an incredible time with him, his friends, and his family.

This book serves as a heartfelt tribute to Elhadji Sall, his family, and his closest friends Djiby, Gora, Mamadou, Alioune, as well as the wonderful people of Quartier Kebe Der in Guedjawaye Dakar. They graciously shared with me the Teranga, the warm hospitality and generosity of Senegal.
