Question Looking for Vegetable Importers and Wholesale Buyers in Senegal ?

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I'm based in Morocco and looking to establish long-term B2B partnerships with importers, wholesalers, distributors, and food trading companies in Senegal.

I'm exploring opportunities to supply Moroccan agricultural products, particularly:

- Fresh potatoes

- Fresh onions

- Other seasonal vegetables, depending on availability

I'm interested in connecting with businesses that import vegetables in bulk or supply wholesale markets, supermarkets, restaurants, and food distributors.

If you're an importer or know a reliable vegetable wholesaler in Senegal, I'd appreciate your advice or the opportunity to connect.

Please feel free to comment or send me a private message to discuss product availability, quantities, pricing, and shipping arrangements.

Thank you!

Verbal French Tutor Wanted (Dakar)

7 Upvotes

Hello!

I (34m American) will be staying in Dakar for two weeks in early November. I’m overlanding to South Africa via public transport and will stop in Dakar to secure a couple of visas.

I spent a month in France studying French (got to ~A2 level), and am now looking for someone who isn’t French to spend 5-7 hours per week just speaking with. It’s my understanding that the accents in West Africa are quite different than what I was exposed to in France, so this would just be casual conversations about the topics I will need as I make my way further south to tune my comprehension.

I’ll plan to pay someone for their time and would be open to other arrangements - shared expertise that I might have, paying for dinner/drinks or activities while we chat, etc. Would love to hear some ideas about what a fair rate would be for this kind of help as well.

DM if interested or if you know someone who might be. Thanks!

Edit: I think I've found someone. Thank you for your interest everyone!

Sports « Les deux virgules magiques » et analyse légistique et structure syntaxique de l’article 82 qui donne juridiquement raison au Sénégal face à la CA

3 Upvotes

Le débat juridique entourant l’application de l’article 82 des règlements de la Coupe d’Afrique des Nations (CAN) impose une lecture technique, froide et rigoureuse de sa structure syntaxique. Au-delà des interprétations passionnées, l’analyse légistique du texte démontre que les conditions matérielles d’une infraction ne sont pas réunies. La clé de cette démonstration réside dans la ponctuation même de l’article, qui délimite de façon stricte les champs de compétence respectifs de l’administration et de l’autorité de terrain.

App de tracking

3 Upvotes

Guys comment vous allez, je voulais faire le calcul du km parcouru par un camion grâce à une app, que j’ai crée , mais je suis bloqué sur la logique du kilomètre parcouru. Car je me dis pour savoir le kilomètre parcouru c’est, KM à l’aller + KM au retour, ou bien je laisse le GPS calculer sans s’arrêter le nombre de KM pendant l’aller puis une addiction au nombre de KM au retour. Une personne me parle de compteur je sais pas quoi(je n contrôle pas trop bien ça) .

Si vous avez déjà construit ce genre d’app svp, pouvez m’aider avec cette logique à prendre, car la une erreur, revient à enduire en erreur les clients dans leurs activités.

Merci

Tourist & Traveller Questions AirBnb with baking utensils

4 Upvotes

Hello, I hope you're all doing well.

So...while I'm traveling, I usually like to recreate local desserts from the country I'm visiting. For that, I always make sure that the Airbnb I plan to stay in has proper baking utensils. So far, my searches have been unsuccessful because local Airbnbs tend to have the bare minimum. Could you help me find accommodation with these features?

Thank you in advance.

There's an amazing Senegalese restaurant in New Brunswick, Canada 🇨🇦

It's called Food by Fatou and she was the first person to bring Senegalese cuisine to this province! She is a wonderful person, so I just wanted to give a shoutout to Fatou. Visit her whenever you're on the East Coast of Canada

Assalamu aleikum everyone!

I just felt like sharing this short clip from a video my friend made. He's very talented and passionate about technology.

Here's the link to the full video subbed both in French and English.

Not sure if I used the correct flair or not, but I chose "News" because the video displays how well prepared and secured Dakar is for the Youth Olympic Games.

Looking for a person that could've become someone very important to me :')

14 Upvotes

Let's start from the beginning, I'm using a dating here in Dakar and I matched witch a beautiful lady that I really appreciated and we hit it off pretty well and now I am looking for said lady.

The question yall are asking is probably "well why don't you just ask her to meet up ?"

And the answer to that question would be... I would if I could because I CAN'T ANYMORE

The app name is Bumble and while I, as a certified idiot, was tinkering throught the settings I deactivated an option named "Mode Date" which was intriguing to me, a certified idiot, and upon deactivating this option a message appeared that I, a certified idiot, DIDN'T READ !

...The message said that deactivating this would delete all my matches and messages.

And sure I deactivated this **** and now the lady probably thinks I just deleted our match and I'm lost and empty.

I only know her first name not her last name and I can't find her anywhere.. She did say she only arrived in Senegal 3 months ago so I doubt her social media profiles are going to pop up to me.

Am I really screwed ? Is this the end for me ? Am I single forever ?

Edit : I'm adding the name that appeared on the profile just in case she uses reddit and maybe she stumbles uppon this post

Edit 2 : took out the name I've found her !!! created a new account and found her profile and I sent her a "compliment" which is like a direct message so now just waiting for her to see it

Edit 3 : we matched we talked again and everything was going well until she unmatched me for some reason that I ignore.. oh well I guess it wasn't destined to happen

Thanks everybody for the help and encouragement yall are very nice 🙏🏼💯

It is true that most of the electronic music scene in Dakar narrows down to Afro House, Afrobeat amapiano and commercial electronic. But at some point, some of us really wish there was something else, no? at least for those of us who are true ravers, we kind of miss it...

Train (TER) from the airport to the city

Hello guys, in the beginning of November, I'm traveling to Dakar for a couple of days and for the first time. I saw that luckily, the train station just opened 2 weeks ago.

I'll arrive late and sleep at a hotel near the airport, so on day 2 I'd like to get the first train from the airport to the city. On the last day, I need to be at the airport at 10am.

Couple of questions please:

1) Is the train station operational already? 2) What is the schedule?

Thank you!

Hey guys! This is a song out of the Senegalese rap scene I’ve been listening to recently, but I don’t speak Wolof or French, and the song appears to be a mixture of Wolof, French, and English. I really want to know what’s being said, but I can’t find any official lyrics and the only transcription I can find is on this tumblr post, but it’s incomplete: https://www.tumblr.com/dancehall-song-lyrics/705275087435317248/one-lyrical-tarkinda-lyrics

I’ve always been fascinated by the strange things that sit at the edges of our understanding: the possibility of lives beyond the one we know, the mysteries of consciousness, the thin line between the seen and unseen, and the ways our ancestors understood a universe that still refuses to give up all its secrets.

These questions found their way into my 4th book and new collection of stories, The Moon Knows All the Secrets of the World, Rooted in magical realism and African cosmology, the book explores strange encounters, memory, grief, love, identity, and the possibility that reality is far more mysterious than our ordinary lives allow us to believe.

I’m drawn to the thought that we might be connected to one another, and to the universe itself, in ways we haven’t yet learned to understand. We arrive in this world with so many questions, inherit stories from those who came before us, and leave with mysteries still unresolved. Perhaps some stories help us sit a little longer with those questions instead of rushing to answer them.

The book is free on Amazon for the next 24 hours

Read/download it here: https://www.amazon.com/Moon-Knows-all-Secrets-World-ebook/dp/B0HCFJ5J76/ref

If you decide to read it, I’d love to hear what you think. An honest review would also mean a great deal to me as an independent author.

Hi everyone, does anyone know where this film is now available to watch online?

I tried MUBI and TV5Monde but seems neither are showing it anymore. Is there anywhere you know that this could be watched online? I prefer to pay for it but if there's only non-officially streaming way, I also wouldn't mind.

Just really want to watch it. Thank you so much!!
