History and architecture in Tangier morocco
It is truly a beautiful sight when the sunlight goes into a state passive decadence and dusk is what the evening is all about, in a city as beautiful as tangier.  You will find many tiny groups of locals and even expats sipping on mint flavored black tea, and even some who take their socializing habits to the top of the hotel Nord Pinus.  There is a beautifully styled guest house which lies in the Kasbah. The doorways are filled with the slight gush of gentle sea breeze that just makes its way though the large arches and are filled with decorated Moroccan pillows and other articles of embroidery and modern Moroccan photography which is pretty much like contemporary styled photography with Moroccan influence in terms of location and subject. All this gives tangier an elegant air of exclusivity.  [...]

Music awakening in Senegal
While you walk the streets of Senegal, you will be able to find the West African breeze rustling through the palm trees and then it stirs up the dirt into what looks like a tiny tornado right in the parking lot. No, No, it definitely is not as bad as it seems. You could hire a SUV to take you around and while you go past the nocturnal crowds that keep streaking in and pout of the nightclubs here. Or if you are arriving on foot, car, scooter or even by a battered and beaten up black and yellow taxi cab. Get a chance to witness Mr. N’Dour in person who is Africa’s biggest music star.  Over here the city comes completely alive to the sound of music especially at night. N’Dour has just arrived into Dakar which happens to be the capital of the beautiful country of Senegal. He was at a Gala  [...]

Dakar: Africa’s best in the west
Dakar is one of the undiscovered pearls of West Africa, although you might know it best for the annual rally that it lends its name to. And just as the Paris-Dakar Rally is not just any conventional rally you might be used to following, Dakar is unlike any African experience you might have undertaken. Exuberant and vivacious, Dakar has burst into life ever since it cast off three centuries of French colonialism in 1960 and it is almost as if the city has been racing against time itself to make up for every lost moment it had to endure. Dakar is dragging Senegal screaming and dancing by the scruff of its neck into a brighter future. A crucible of noise, Dakar is a swirling cacophony that’s a little bit of everything. By day, the beats of music waft over the air while mingling with the hustle  [...]
