From Its glorious past, marked by the history of the great empires, Mali inherited a rich person cultural heritage, real contribution to human and universal civilization. It is thus not a chance, if our country has 4 classified sites world heritage by UNESCO: Tombouctou, for its mosques going back to several centuries, Djenné, known thousand-year-old city entirely built, the Dogon Country, with its magic and mythical universe and the Tomb of Askias in the town of Gao, relic of the dynasty founder of the Songhoï Empire. The history of Mali, it is also that of Soundiata Keïta, paralytic child become king of one of the greatest empires; that of Africa of Soumangourou Kanté, the king wizard and that of Sonni Ali Ber, Ali the Large one.

Kande Beach combines a gorgeous powdery sand beach with a variety of accommodation from camping and dorm beds to ensuite chalets. There is tons to do such as tours of Tonga, the local village, scuba diving and horse riding through the forest, then along the beaches and finishing with bareback swimming in the water. The locals are lovely, welcoming and some of the kindest people you'll meet. The bar is great for parties or just a quiet drink, and there is internet access available. Its heavenly and really is the warm heart of Africa.

When shooting in Africa I always find it helpful to take a Gold reflector with me. Africans have great skin tones and by using a gold reflector you can really bring out the detail.

When in Cape Town, enjoy the V&A waterfront, which is wheelchair-friendly and take a harbour cruise for magnificent views of Table Mountain and the wharf. Also, the cafes and restaurants on Long St are usually quite friendly!
