wakhale ...
In Wolof, haggling. Pronounce 'warrhalé'. My friends call me the mtnt 'wakhaleuse' has the force of me AT WORK. So I guess I'm now not too bad this game has it. Here is qq advice. There are several
how to properly succeed a wakhale: different situations or c particularly easy, at least.
Well, already we should not forget that the guy has to earn a living. That way you head for whatever price you put, it will always be cheaper than bcp you in France. Ms c the good of the game too. We must not forget that the guy would not agree to sell if not ct tt interesting walk him. So do not feel guilty if you go down too well the price.
- pr start, Africa in the summer, the off c-tourism. So, on c, bcp me I have won Paske no tourists, it means also that they st obliged to lower their prices pr able to sell. C pr sad them good ms c kom ca, and must well ke ca has the advantages of coming to the 'bad' season.
- so before you start wanting a bargain, the ideal c to know the value of things. I mean, if we do not know what that product is ds this country, forcing bin appearing in our references to us it cheap. Whereas if. Eg., Knowing the price of food mangoes, fabric, clothing .... Have an idea what. So is rnseigner up in advance from the premises.
- a trick that works excellently, c tt kan you simply have no money. Or very little. You are sincere, you still do it that much. So c AC or anything. Often it works, and kom is no choice, well it goes down very low.
- No evil too, kan you already have a copy of the object. Eg, you wear a wrist bracelet that you pay 1000CFA (c lived!), A woman that sells also speak to you in asking you how much you have paid. Surtt not tell you the truth, the price ms divided by 2, 3 or 4 kom you feel (g 250CFA answered). Very often, he / she'll offer to sell you his family the same price you ke ads or even cheaper!
- g bcp also uses the argument "c as expensive as in France, I v not pay the same price I'm not interested! "Or" ok you say it's worth so much, perhaps, ms I want to put that price the c tt, so too bad I am not. " Anyway, the c golden rule never to be too interested! Do not hesitate to leave and go elsewhere, sometimes they'll fall further and continuing TREES THEMSELVES price! (Yen in Goree has that g leaves the top of the island, which has followed me jusk'au boat dr finally sell me his picture at a price jvoulais ke!)
- another method that I am not too uses, I find it too bloated: you 3000CFA ads. He wants 5000. You answer that "oh yeah you climb on my price, then I know it cke worth? Too bad I also walk you down. 2000. "I swear vs. crazy c ms it can work, a girlfriend took his t-shirt at 2000 kom ca!

5) The talibe.
Some children (boys) Senegal (abandoned, orphaned, or ds situations politically / religiously inncorrectes ..), + or - youth (from 4 years even!) ds across the country who come to you with their gde pr ke tin can you give them a piece. St they supposed to be fed, housed, educated and reared by wise men, who collect the money collected. Well, obviously it unclear what became of that money, probably not what ms has koi he must serve. A little kom our Romanian children in Paris koi. In short, I was told it was unwise to give these children a piece. Suddenly, as they are hungry, I distribute them cupcakes ...
6) Babies / Children of Senegal ...
... who never cry. Well, almost. AC, different from us. St tjs they all smile, make you cuckoo shouting "Toubab, Toubab!" I have not really seen it or whims of big sting angers (kom kan gt me kid!). Anyway, here c differ, they st ALMOST never separated from their mother, the ki ds their back door, and children do pretty much whatever they want it left alone, thou mayest easily trainer ds Street juska midnight 1am ...
7) The notion of time and distance.
As so aptly Didi "watch the European, African time".
C true, and c an aspect which has a hard g adapt here. I'm ki battery maker, during which all pr tjs do lots of things ki ai tjs impression of lacking tps ...
Here c 'is not a problem "," yes yes we have time "," God willing "and company ... Matches, it takes doing things tps pr ms if you want to do bcp things you do not do the tps of tt. Want
try to find out how much tps gonna take this thing: impossible. Or maybe you do kom dr haggling, you multiply (divide the price) by 3 or 4! Ex jme've been doing braids the other day: "c not long yen for an hour", 1hr + later it was not the third, and she continues to regularly tell me "soon finish c, c soon finished ". It took 4 hours. 4 hours of pure pain. Ms good times did you need to prepare yourself psychologically to AC!
As for distance, "it is far from the bus station? - Oh yes, very far! Take a taxi" good, in fact it was about 1km ... Or a market
ds (Sandaga + +), a reel ki ds one wants to take you Store kil knows (from his 'brother' koi), "c not far, just next c!" ct actually good at the other end of the market and made you lose ca 15 min ..
8) currency.
A big problem here, money. Well, kom ds apparently most developing countries. There is NEVER enough money! There are 10 bills 000CFA, 5000, 2000 or 1000 (real Monopoly money!)
, after c
the rooms 500, 250, 200, 100, 50, 25 or 10CFA. But then, you poor tourists kan you'll get cash at ATMs (usually you shoot between 100 00 and 200 000CFA a time), those bastards do you spin ke 10,000 tickets! Hyper Drive TO SELL! Ca kan password you want to buy a table at 6000 on c, ms pr bus fare (150CFA), a taxi (500-2000), etc., it becomes a mess quickly. Nobody has money ... You find yourself you fucking your 10 000 and they have not they make you koi. Super.
9) Traffic congestion.
Ahh, the congestion in Dakar ... They will miss those (JOKE + + +) Think you know the unbearableness plugs Paris?? At peak morning and evening walk go to work or the weekend of August 15 pr on vacation?? Tt is simply in-com-pa-ra-ble. Dakar, ville construite sur la presqu’île du Cap-Vert (autrefois petit village – haha – au Sud), ne cesse de s’étendre, avec l’arrivée en masse de la population (euh mine de rien ca represente pas loin d’un tiers de la population du Senegal : 2,5M pour 10M !!!). Du coup, comme elle peut pas s’étendre sur la mer, elle s’étend vers le continent. Vers l’espece d’étranglement la, qui relie la presqu’ile au continent, quoi. Ah oui, détail important, du coup il n’y a qu’UNE SEULE ROUTE pour entrer/sortir de Dakar et aller ds les terres… Ca va, vous commencez a entrevoir l’horreur ? Ah oui, aussi il y has important work on this same road, they build a toll road. It starts to come? Okay, well actually no more than 15 km between the center of Dakar, and the output of Rufisque (last suburban wholesale, c bon ca after we left). I have already put more than 2 hours 30mins walk to the route. That is basically it varies between 1 hour and 2:30 to walk this path, sc imagine that most people make this journey morning and evening pr ds go to work the center and go home at night periph. Me my main pb, ts pr from the WE outward. Good vs. tell me, again in Paris, c hellish traffic jams, there is a 1h + morning and evening walk to go to work. OK OK, ms must recover the context ds: how to walk kilometers already? 40, 60km? Good. Under what conditions already? A state car, comfortable, + / - with air conditioning, radio, etc. ... It's not tt has horns and exhaust fumes in your face Paske t require large open your windows if you die of heat ds 35 ° C + 90% humidity!
Good, head of way, imagine Paris kon put tt ds a bottle, and the only way c walk out the neck. Ok I exaggerate, because Paris c approx. 2-3M cap. ms with the suburbs is ca + 10M. Okay, so let's say, Paris with a single door and walk out to reach the suburbs.
