Compliments for making this page !

I'm a student from HOLLAND, 23 and married with an
half-Cape Verdian wife. Her maidenname is Cabral and a
relative of Amilcar Cabral, the leader of the freedom-fighters
the PAIGC and he was murdered by the Portuges.

I like to contact people that can give me more info
about Amilcar Cabral. Also i want to go to work at CV and
i am looking for a job there: a graduate this summer as
Ph.D in Economics, Vrije Universtiteit Amsterdam.

With regards,

Simon Meijer

Great page. keep up the good work. Hopefully, the Cape Verdean Student Alliance
at umass amherst will create their own. There's a large
Cape verdean student population at Umass, Amherst.
Please consider sending your students to this institution.

So it works!
A propos, I read about travelling to Cabo Verde through
Dakar: it is possible, it's even cheaper with Alitalia,
from Europe, but you'll have to spend the night in Dakar,
which can be nice...

While in Sao Vicente don't miss Chez Loutchia restaurant
on Wednesday and Friday night, with live music,
very nice group that's also appearing on Sunday afternoon
for the beach buffet in Calhau, highly recommanded!

Boa Dia!

I've got an idea: medium-lenght comments!

So I was in Cabo Verde for three week
and I'm ready to give advice on travelling in the
sotavento (sal-s.nicolau-s.vicente-s.antao) to anyone asking
especialy about planes (book in advance to be sure to get a seat
- they are small ATR and Twin Otter), boats (get your
sea sickness pills before embarking or at least a plastic bag)
and taxi/aluguer...

As a lover of the Portugese culture, I have bin several times to Portugal, and the Azores. Last winter, we have visited one of the islands of Cabo Verde.
It was marvellous. Next Year, we (my wive, me and the tree children.) want to go back to Cabo Verde. The problem is that your islands are not known in little Belgium
There is no information avalable exept via German organisations. So if you have some notes, paperbacks, brocures, or E-mails. Please sent them to me, because I'am very interested.
I don't want to see the touristical "hot shots", but I like to know the real people, the real culture, the real nature.

Greetings.

I signed before, but then noticed the my entire
message wasn't clearly noted. As I was saying,
I am getting my B.A. in African Studies and plan
to go on (september 1997) to get a Master's in
International Affairs from Columbia University.
I was just browsing and decided to head towards
"African Diaspora" and here I ended up. I am
interning with an African Diaspora center in NY -
my main responsibility to connect with Afro-Latino
organizations in South/Central and Caribbean America.
I'll be going to Cape Verde - at the latest in January
of 1997.

I enjoy learning all I can about the entire Diaspora.
I would enjoy using this e-mail thing to meet new
people - so everyone feel free to contact me!

I am truly enjoying your page!  I am getting a B.A. in African Studies and in September 1997 hope to be accepted for the Master's in International Affairs program at Columbia University.  My focus will be African, Economic and Political Development.  Currently interning with an African Diaspora center in New York - since July 95 - and working on an Afro-Mundo project.  This project is a group of Afro-Latino organizations of South/Central/Caribbean American gathered together to celebrate their African Heritage and to connect with the continent.  I am always reaching out, so you're welcome (I hope you do) to write back to me!

Hello, I am so happy for this Cape Verdean forum where I can

meet all friends of this wonderful country. I was working on

the island of Santo Antao for more than three years as Director

of a Danish NGO called Bornefonden (The Children Foundation)

so if you have any questions I`ll be happy to try to answer

them. I was also on a short visit now in February 1996. I loved

to meet all my Cape Verdean friends again. Thank You.

I am a 4th year graduate student in African History at

There I spent a month doing archival work for a thesis
about Guinea-Bissau.  The Cape Verdean archives are 
fantastic and the staff is very helpful.  I would like 
to return to Cape Verde to conduct more research on 
slavery and the slave trade.  I would appreciate any
information about the cheapest way to travel to the
beautiful island nation.

This is a great forum for friends of Cape Verde, and I

more information related to the social and economic 
development impacts of our project as well as anecdotes and 
observations that I have had in this amazing country.
