Children, Northern Liberia

These children were walking around in the village. We asked the head of the village if it was alright to make pictures in the village of the houses and the people; he gave us permission.

Liberia, on the road

by jacobzoethout

The road between the border and Ganta was filled with holes, but our taxi driver Moussa manouvred the car carefully between the holes. There was a roadblock near the small town of Sanniquelli, which wasn’t a nice experience. Our bags were emptied and it became clear that the men wanted money. In the end, they let us go, and just when it started to get dark, we arrived in Ganta. I was happy to arrive there safely.

village church, northern
Liberia

In one village between Ganta and the border we saw this little churche house. All the houses in the village were built in the same style.

	Try some palm wine Tip Rating:

This jug is empty

by melosh

Like chichi in the Andes and pulque in Mexico, palm wine has a very yeasty taste and can vary considerable depending on how long it has been allowed to ferment. The fresher or younger the palm wine the sweeter and less alcoholic it will be.
Also you will not find it in pasteurized bottles. You have to trust the source.

	Hiking or Fishing

By australianborn on February 22, 2009

Liberia Page by australianborn

If you meet someone local, go fishing. Liberia is full of water, and fishing is the go here. Fish off a bridge, fish off a canoe, or, if you're really lucky and know the right people with speed boats, go offshore.
Hiking is also great in Liberia. Up in Bong county, which is about to be opened up bigtime by iron ore mining meaning the roads and rail will be refurbished and the area will be much more accessible, there are waterfalls, and the jungle that is left is amazing. Or the National Park is pristine.
Liberia is just emerging from so much war and devestation, and has a long long way to go. Tourism is still a concept rather than an industry, so good luck. Get out there and explore!
PS don't touch the rubber - the smell will be with you all day!

	Meet a Liberian truck driver in Ganta

Ganta truck driver

by jacobzoethout

In Ganta, we saw a truck from the Dutch village of Schoondijke. This happened to be the same village where my fellow traveller was living. Final proof that the world is small. My fellow traveller and the truck driver became friends on the spot.
For more information about the city of Ganta, see my Ganta page
