Dear

Cape Verde. Sal Island. It was quite clear from the first sight that the island of Sal was not going to be fascinating at all. How could it be? It was almost completely flat and comprised of barren, desert-like land. More optimistically, people would call it a giant beach, with gaps filled with salt plains and black lava fields. Having spent just few days on one of the islands, and worse - the most tourists packed island - I can offer a limited impressions on the Capeverdeans. Apart from the fact that they liked their island clean, were friendly and welcoming.
