http://public.fotki.com/senegalstyle/casamance_woodcutte/ This is a compilation of the wood and the people who cut it in the Casamance region of Senegal. It is a war zone, complete with land mines (I didn't know about the mines before!) and this is where I had been going to get our light colored djun djun wood and large djembe wood. We still have orders there and several trips to make, so if you like the lighter woods, email me at: JembeQueen@yahoo.com and we'll talk. P.S. Landmines... the price is DEFINITELY GOING TO INCREASE! HAHA! Better talk fast! lol! GIFT CERTIFICATES ARE NOW AVAILABLE FOR THE UPCOMING HOLIDAY SEASON...
