🌴𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗶𝗷𝗮𝗴𝗼𝘀 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗼 •
Tropical island chain located off the coast of Guinea-Bissau, it comprises 88 islands, with only a few being inhabited. The archipelago is known for its unique cultural practices, diverse wildlife, and untouched natural beauty.

The Bijagos Islands are home to matriarchal societies, where women hold significant social and spiritual power. This is reflected in the traditional ceremonies and practices, such as the difuntu and fanado, which are important rites of passage for the local population.

The islands are renowned for their crystal-clear waters and world-class fishing opportunities. The lack of industrial trawlers in the area has preserved the marine ecosystem, making it a haven for artisanal fishermen and sport fishermen. The are home to a herd of saltwater hippos, which can be found on the island of Orango, and to incredible birdlife and turtle hatchings.

Starting from and (Senegal) we'll traverse an astonishing range of natural landscapes, from desert dunes and savannahs to estuaries, forests, and mangrove swamps, culminating in an exhilarating ocean voyage to explore and relish the Bijagos Archipelago. Along the way, birds will be our constant companions, with Senegal's Djoudj National Sanctuary serving as one of the world's foremost migratory bird havens and Gambia renowned as a prime birding destination.

As we journey through the northern savannah, we will be welcomed into the camp of nomadic herders and meet members of the largest religious brotherhood, who practice a peaceful African form of Islam that eschews fundamentalism. In the south, we'll delve into animistic traditions, meeting tribal kings, witnessing dancing masks, and visiting remote tribes that still venerate ancestor statues. This offers a rare opportunity to experience tribal art in its authentic setting. In , an animistic region, we'll be part of the Diola mask celebrations, witnessing the incarnation of mythical spirits in a mesmerizing masquerade that engages the whole village in a vibrant mix of magic, music, and dance.

Oggi consigliamo una lettura italiana: 𝗣𝗲𝘇𝘇𝗶 𝗱𝗶 𝘃𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗴𝗶, di Bianca Maggi (Teka Edizioni 2024).

Nell’introduzione, Eva, la nipote, presenta la nonna come un Ulisse al femminile. Basta vedere l’indice: 37 destinazioni. Ulisse non è arrivato a tanto.

Bianca illustra i suoi viaggi e - attraverso di essi - com’è nata la sua collezione di gioielli etnici. Raro caso di persona che unisce due passioni: i grandi viaggi e la gioielleria tribale. Quanti collezionisti hanno messo insieme pregiate collezioni andando al massimo da qualche buon fornitore. Bianca è invece andata a cercare i suoi pezzi là dove erano creati ed utilizzati. Molto tenere le foto che la ritraggono in compagnia dei vari commercianti, nei loro negozietti.

Il nostro Roberto Cerea ha avuto ll piacere di accompagnare Bianca in una casa di antiquari di (Ghana). Tra bambini, massaie e marabut, i mercanti hanno tirato fuori i pezzi da sotto i letti, aprendo cassepanche vetuste. Lì ha visto Bianca guardare, analizzare, scegliere, e soprattutto essere contenta di trovare quel pezzo che cercava. Stessa esperienza, ma tra meno disordine, nel negozio di Baba, a Sevaré (Mali).

In un mondo fatto a pezzi, leggere Pezzi di viaggi fa bene al cuore, perché restituisce dignità a popoli semi sconosciuti, esaltando la loro estetica. Grazie Bianca!

P.S. la copertina mostra le forme eleganti di una moschea in argilla del Mali. Ricordi di un mondo per ora irraggiungibile. È un valore aggiunto del libro.

Yam is one of main ingredients of the stable diet in West Africa. In August, the population of Central Regions of Benin gather around notables and kings to celebrate a ritual of continuity. Sharing a meal of the newly harvested tubers carries a dual significance. It is both an expression of gratitude to the gods and ancestors for a bountiful harvest, and a heartfelt plea for continued abundance in the years to come. The festival unfolds with vibrant mask dances and evocative voodoo ceremonies, enriching the celebration with tradition and spiritual reverence.

Embark on an extraordinary cultural journey to the remote regions of Ghana, Togo, and Benin, where we uncover hidden tribal worlds governed by traditional chiefs and ancient spirits.

Voodoo ceremonies in 𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗼 and 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻 are profound cultural experiences that reveal the deep spiritual roots of these West African countries. These events, embedded in the Vodoun religion, celebrate a rich animistic belief system that honors a pantheon of gods, spirits, and revered ancestors. Voodoo ceremonies come alive with elaborate rituals, music, dance, and offerings to deities. Held in sacred spaces like temples, shrines, or special community areas, these ceremonies are led by esteemed Voodoo priests or priestesses, who have dedicated years to mastering the Vodoun tradition. It is not just a religion but also a way of life that connects people with their ancestors and the natural world.

Do you know what the 𝗬𝗮𝗺 𝗙𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹 is?
In the heart of , the Yam Festival is a vibrant celebration, marking the bountiful harvest of yams, a cornerstone of local sustenance. Every year on August 15, this event draws a colorful tapestry of attendees, thousands of locals and wanderers from across the globe. It's not just a festival: it's a communal moment of unity, transcending ethnicity, religion, or political divides. As the harvest season wraps up, the people of Benin converge to honor both their rich heritage and the shared bonds that unite them.

The Yam Festival stands as a poignant reminder of community and tradition, pulsating through the rhythms of Beninois life. The newly harvested yams must first receive the oracle's blessing before anyone can taste them. This sacred rite, accompanied by a series of rituals, is performed with the hope of securing a prosperous harvest in the year to come. Beyond the spiritual ceremonies, the festival also serves as a grand stage to celebrate the pillars of the community: it's a time of gratitude and recognition.
