Thanx 02

Equal rights, Equal opportunities : Progress for all

This is a very rational (ideal) term but very difficult to make it true...

This is the special textile of the day this year in Burkina.↓

It suits on her very well, doesn't it ???

Like last year, there was a party at YANTA center.

When I arrived there, the women were already at the peak of the heat !

I was exhausted of the day before home party at my place so I did not have enough energy and courage to join them.

I watched from the side and encouraged them to dance harder !

In the middle of such exciting time, they made a short time for me.

The president of YANTA, Madame Drabo gave me grateful words.

They also gave me a handmade traditional textile from Sanoufo ethnic group.

If I had not met YANTA,

If YANTA's ladies had not welcomed me so warmly, how it would have been my 2 years ?

I was very touched.

Next day, I went to visit the area where I used to go most often for my compost activity.

I brought them some photos that I had taken there to thank their interest and hard word for composting.

If they did not have so much motivation and patience, my 2 years would not be like this.

In this area, kids always gave me innocent smiles and called me with my name but not with the word for white person (foreigner) "Tubabou".

I tired to pass there at least once a week.

Visit there was a part of my life in bobo.

I will never forget here and these people.

Until the area gets tap water and electricity at home,

well even after the land adjustment, I will come over here.

Thank you so much for sharing your love with me !
