Navigating Dakar's Biggest Market From Tech Fixes To Sneakers | Boat Life In Senegal Africa S8E3
Could you find your way out of Colobane Market? One of the busiest in Dakar Senegal. I team up with my friend Asse to recover a lost hard drive in one of Dakar's most intense markets. Watch as we negotiate deals, fix broken phones, and navigate the dusty streets where traffic is an extreme sport.
Back on my boat, "Galopin," we get some serious work done with Robert installing new netting, followed by a special visit from Mana. We tackle everything from bargaining for sneakers to searching for a wheelchair, proving that while solo sailing is peaceful, having the right partners makes the journey special.
