Over the weekend, I invited one of my favourite instagrammers Cecile @_ccil_ to take over La Basketry feed and share her favourite places and secret spots in Senegal.

Cecile says: "Gorée is a short boat ride from Dakar. You will love all the beautiful pastel-coloured houses all across the island.
The highlight is 'La Maison des Esclaves' or House of Slaves - the final exit point for many slaves from Africa being brought to the Americas." 

"Le marché de Sandiara / Sandiara market where you can buy pretty much everything including clothing, fruits and a cow." 

Cecile says: "Lompoul Desert at the south of Saint-Louis is not-to-be missed.  
Is there anything more beautiful than sand dunes and peaceful than the desert."

"Saint-Louis is one of my favourite cities with the colonial architecture and its peaceful vibe.
It is best to visit the city on a 'caleche' / a horse-drawn cart." 

Cecile says: "Senegalese women are always so chic and well-dressed. I love the style of Bedik women in the south of the country and their beautiful and colourful accessories."

"My last destination is Dindefelo Waterfalls in the south of Senegal.
The falls are about 100 meters high and it's a great spot for swimming or a bit of relaxation." says Cecile.
