of Oslo, Ebrima Mboob & family, Reeshala Njie, and Dr. Manuru Joaque of Stockholm, Matarr & Centra Jeng, Ndey
Amie Jeng, Gibou Njie, Ousman & Aji Sawaneh, Momodou & Yama Camara of Copenhagen, and the numerous Gambians I
met, and too many to name here.  I thank each and everyone of you for your hospitality.
