This is Youssouf, a guy who lives next to my classroom in my host village. I am working on convincing him to trade his bicycle for my "flashy" Trek mountain bike.

I love reading you posts! Sometimes I can almost imagine I am there too. Ha....NOT....
No really, I truly do enjoy reading about your new adventures. Do keep up the challenge and God bless you.

Ma chère Jessie,
As-tu réussi finalement à obtenir ce vélo?
Je pense à toi souvent car je suis entouré d'amis africains qui viennent jouer de la musique chez moi. Et aussi tout simplement parce que je ne t'oublie pas.
Je voudrais que tu ailles voir ce site: www.lafriqueavelo.com
Ce sont des amis de mon colocataire espagnol. Ils ont décidé de faire le tour de l'Afrique à vélo pour trois ans en couple. Formidable.
Ils sont actuellement au Mali et peut-être peux-tu les rencontrer?
A quelle adresse peut-on t'envoyer du courrier au Mali?
Just enjoy.
tres intiresno, merci
