This is me and my friend, Dauda, during my training in Guinea-Bissau (June-September 1995). Dauda sold used clothes in the market in Gabu and taught me the importance of drinking tea and sitting in Fula culture. Dauda was patient with my language limitations and seemed as excited to learn about the US as I was to learn all things Guinean. He was a great friend during training and I continued to visit him during my two years of service.
