The Gambia is characterized by an impressive ethnic diversity. In addition to the official language English, the tribal languages Mandinka, Wolof and Fula are widely spoken. Islam is the predominant religion. The Gambia relies on subsistence farming, as natural resources in this fairly little country are scarce. The main export commodity is peanuts.
Orphanage support is one of the most shocking experience you can have in Gambia and other countries in West Africa. Be part of the local life and support orphans and kids without resources.
