When you drive from the M’zab to El Goléa, from time to time, you will see children coming out of nowhere and begging for some water, or for any kind of gift. On this occasion, that was obviously a family with a girl (the oldest) and her three younger brothers. We gave them a few garments.

Algerian girls

In El Golea we encountered near El Golea a youth centre.
The girls, dressed in colourfull dresses beckoned us to come.
They were anxious to speak with us in French. They told and and showed us what they were doing.

This girl was also dressed very beautifull. She liked to tell us about their local customs.
She did speak some french, so we could have had a nice small conversation.
We really enjoyed to meet these girls.
And they were very excited to talk with us.

The Algerian girls, we met in the youth centre near El Golea, liked to show us their local customs. So they showed us a tea ceremony and grinding cereals.
We admired their very colourful dresses.
