hello
how are you
We have now been some days working full time documenting thesenegalesse cooking in different houses and dishes; it;s been a greatexperience though which we think we have acomplished much more than weexpected; as women of all ages have been really helpful and patientthough the whole process: they also have been making differentrecepies cooked in all kinds of houses; so the material is verycomplete and complex;so far this is all the good stuff; the bad news is that our camera;that has never before given us any problem; has broken and we callednikon and they say it would take something like two months to have itrepaired; so we cannot take anymore photos what is very sad for us...still as I said we have much more material than we have from othercountries; but is a pitty this accident happened;cest la vie!
warmest wishes
itziar and ivan

The Espanish In Santhiaba

Hello all: after a really nice week in Santhiaba; getting used to all the new things surounding us;
