MY CAMEROON
These are some of the people and places that are a part of my daily world in Bamenda. Some days enjoyable, some days annoying, but it is all a part of the web in which I have become one of the strands.

BEAUTIFUL OKU
Oku, a mountain town, carries an air of mystery about it. It is famous for its witchcraft, its lake, and its wood carvings. It is set high in the mountains, over a couple of mountain passes, and surrounded by waterfalls. It is a gorgeous drive, and the five of us, in our hired car, were blessed with gorgeous weather and beautiful views throughout the day. We had a quick handshake with the Fon, a peek at the Fon’s palace, a thorough tour of the wood carving artisans of the area, and a hike to the mystical lake.
