[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t believe how parochial the answers are here. The friend’s parents are almost certainly cosmopolitan  types - World Bank, foreign service, etc. They likely have very protected lives in The Gambia, tons of relatives, connections, etc. They are not going to let their teenage girls become sex trafficking victims, lol. This is an amazing opportunity for OP to experience an African country as the guest of a likely well-connected family. An irreplaceable opportunity. [/quote]

Lol if the OP’s kid’s friend’s parents’ are from a connected family, OP’s kid isn’t going to experience how people actually live there.[/quote]

How do you think Africans actually live? It’s a continent with 50+ countries and each includes cities, suburbs, and rural areas. Even within The Gambia people are living many different types of life styles based on income, religion, and personal choices. You probably think the only authentic lifestyle involves something you saw on Jungle Cruise.[/quote]
