So Mama Kane is the head of my host-family and as she speaks only Wolof, it's been interesting getting to know her. Our communication consists of actions, me speaking French to try and guess what she means (as she understands French, but cannot speak it) and facial expressions: it's definitely challenged my ideas on communication. Mama is very light-hearted and is constantly making jokes with everyone (her latest one with me and Precious is that all we do is sleep, and we never work). Her daily routine consists of making the coffee in the morning for breakfast and then throughout the day she does various things including sewing patterns onto fabric to sell.
I will end this family profile in the way I intend to end the other family profiles, with their best quality. For me, Mamas best quality is her loud and infectious laugh. People in the UK definitely have one or two things to learn about laughing when it comes to the Senegalese!
