Why I Love Africa
I love Africa because of the colour in every aspect of life.
From the body-ochre paintings in initiation festivals, to the brightly dressed women on their way to the weekly market.
From the people of all shades - black, brown and white - to the rich black soils and the barrenness of the brown Sahara.
From the golden yellow sunrise to the amazing sunsets.
The unending green covering the land, the music, the dance, life itself is colour.
Africa, the land of colour, rise, shine and light the world, I love you!
