Postcards from Africa Dariusz Jasak

Postcards from Africa In this short series, I wanted to give an impression of two countries of middle Africa: Gabon and São Tomé and Príncipe. The life of the locals is strongly connected to nature. Those two parallel worlds blend together, are inseparable. Everyday life is much more connected to nature. The pace of living is slower comparing to the developed first world countries ruled by technology.
