I got my bags packed on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

in my passport photo.

Amateur Traveler episode 817. Today Amateur Traveler talks about pirates and turtles, beaches and beach bars, volcanoes, and music clubs as we go to the island nation of Cape Verde.

I know that I should be heading home, but maybe not, maybe not

today.

Welcome the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. Let's talk about

Cape Verde. I'd like to welcome to the show Paulina from Paulina on the road

dot com who's come to talk to us about Cape Verde

Paulina welcome to the show.

Hi Chris thank you so much for having me.

And Paulina is coming because I asked on the Amateur Traveler

Facebook group for who knew someone who could talk authoritatively about Cape

Verdi and Mike Powers said hey I'm planning a trip to Cape Verity and this is the

resource I'm using is the resources on pulling on the road.com and so I invited

pulling it to come talk to us about Cape Verdi.

But Paulina, where is Cape Verdi?

Well, that's a good question because it's a small country.

It's a question that's frequently asked. You can find the Cape Verdean Islands on the height of Senegal, so off the coast of Senegal.

And then they are southern, like in the heart of the

Canary Islands which belong to Spain. So if you look at it they are really

strategically located in the heart of the Atlantic.

Excellent and why should someone go to in the heart of the Atlantic. Excellent.
