After my major leap of faith in May 2016, my first stop was Dakar, Senegal. Looking back, it's crazy that I had never actually visited nor did I know anyone personally that was there prior to my arrival. Back then, there wasn’t that much information available online, let alone photos to keep me inspired about what was possible experience. Thankfully, my risk paid off and it all worked out perfectly - Senegal completely changed my life.

If you’re planning your next trip there, here are some photos to get you inspired on the beauty that will be waiting for you once you touch down.
