What if everything you thought you knew about Senegalese football was just the surface? I was taken beyond the tourist trails of Senegal, by my guide and friend Mohamed. To a soccer game between a young aggressive rookie team and the old experienced veterans. Join me as I share my unbelievable journey from the streets of Ziguinchor and into the hidden, sacred heart of Diola traditions, revealing rituals and beliefs that will forever change your perspective on West African culture. An intimate perspective on rituals seldom seen by outsiders. This all was about a football match. The Senegal Lions of Teranga are the Africa Cup of Nations champions. Here we are in this remote village which may produce the next Sadio Mane. And it’s also New Year’s eve, our mystical journey continues from the bush to the city for the 2025-2026 countdown. Are you ready to witness what lies beneath the surface of Casamance?

Winded Voyage Sailing

An older dude who feels 30 sails the world on a small yacht and tells his live large adventures. Follow him from the beginning when he looks for a sailboat and buys it. Earns his Swiss offshore sailing license and refits his boat. Then sails alone from the south of France along the Spanish coast to Tangiers Morocco. On to the Canary Islands where he learned how to manage in extreme ocean conditions. Continues south to the Cabo Verde Islands, land of the most beautiful people ever. He learns to speak the local Creole language so to better understand the Cape Verdean culture. To enjoy life, feel young and love again. He recovers from hip replacement surgery and sails on to the great African continent where few sailors dare to go. His story is one of an old geezer living the life of a full time sailor with all it’s perils and pleasures. So hang on, eat, dance, laugh, love and discover the world with him and his boat Galopin. It’s their Winded Voyage. A real living adventure series.
