Welcome to Litsy!

I LOVED this travelogue! Flavorful,comical,respectful!!!
Michael Palin, a British actor once part of Monty Python acting troupe began hosting a travel show for the BBC from 1989- 2012🌎 He vividly describes all the places he visited with rich details and a sense of pleasure #ReadingAfrica22
#Gibraltar #Morocco #WesternSahara #Mauritania
#Senegal #Mali #Niger #Algeria #Libya #Tunisia
Total pick 😀

#WesternSahara is a strip of the desert bordered by the Pacific Ocean fought over between Morocco and Mauritania following Spain‘s painfully slow withdrawal from its colonial grip. The tribes living there have been put into two massive refugee camps, so massive they‘ve become cities unto themselves. This paper looks at the current situation and its history. I opted to read the 600+ page esample rather than buying the rest because I felt like ⬇️

#readingafrica2022 challenge update. I‘m currently reading books for #Chad (tagged book), #WesternSahara, #Kenya (for #foodandlit) and will start tomorrow an audiobook for the #RepublicofCongo. @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB

I‘ve decided to read this book for #WesternSahara, which is 2/3 shorter than the previous one I picked and it describes the current situation there after the Spanish abandoned the land allowing the Moroccans and Mauritanians to swoop in and throw the native tribes into refugee camps. It is the most modern of colonial disasters. Spain abandoned the land only in the mid-1970s! I‘ve already learned a lot. #readingafrica2022

I‘ve spent the evening scouring Amazon for free ebooks for #readingafrica2022. Some are free with a Prime subscription and some through a Kindle Unlimited subscription. Countries covered from top to bottom: #Réunion, #WesternSahara, #Mauritania, and #Seychelles. @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB

A random stack of #fallcolours off the shelves.

I definitely saved the hardest countries for the end. But here are the last 5 of my 10 selections for #PassportLitsy next year! #StMartin #WesternSahara #Andorra #Kenya and #Tajikistan 😬👍
