Thanks in advance for participating,

I choose to live in Senegal for many reasons.

To answer the raised questions I would say:
- fresh food (fish, vegetables)
- out of all the African countries, Senegal is one of the country which has a lot of potential economically
- Senegalese people are very welcoming
- It is 'politically' safe
- It is a couple hours away from Europe where I'm from

Thanks for raising the question
