A Conversation in Pulaar (Tourist)

  • (Ngor beach, with Martin & Jessica)
  • Rasta man: Hello my friend.
  • Me: Hello.
  • Rasta man: Would you like to buy something?
  • Me: No, thanks though.
  • Rasta man: Well, welcome to Senegal!
  • Me: Aww, thanks, but I live in Senegal right now. I work in Tamba, for the last 17 months actually. I'm not a tourist. I'm just here to relax.
  • Rasta man: Welcome to Dakar!
  • Me: Oh thanks again, but I've been to Dakar too.
  • Rasta man: (Starts pulling out rattle like instruments) Welcome to the beach!
  • Me: (Internal monologue: Oh shit, he's going to play them...) Seriously, thank you, but I've been to this beach before. And I don't think we want to buy anything right now. (Man starts shaking rattles) Please stop...
  • Rasta man: (Now singing): Welcome, welcome, welcome. Welcome to Senegal. Welcome to Africa. Welcome, welcome, welcome.
