Far Off the Map | NYE Journey to Cape Verde and Guinea Bissau via Senegal
**500 km west of Senegal lies Cape Verde**, the island chain of vertigo-inducing mountains, green valleys of flowers and sugar cane, crystal blue waters and white sandy beaches. Here, the music and rhythms of Creole West Africa are heard across quaint seaside villages, towering peaks and sparkling bays.
This island paradise was uninhabited until the 1500s, when it was discovered by Portuguese explorers who took advantage of its strategic location for cross-Atlantic trade. Cape Verde has remained something of a well-kept secret since; though centuries have passed, the **majority Creole population (European and West African descent)** has rarely exceeded 500,000 people.
The geologic origins of the island chain are **a volcanic hot spot deep in the Atlantic**, which over millennia created an otherworldly archipelago of steep craggy mountains and lush green landscapes. A stunning highlight is the **dizzying vertical island of Santo AntĂŁo**, **ruptured with canyons, deep gorges and valleys** home to sugar cane plantations and tropical flora and fauna.
**This time, we invite you to join us on an extended journey**. After NYE celebrations in Cape Verde, we will continue to the mainland of Mama Africa **to explore yet another hidden corner: Guinea-Bissau.**
This tiny West African country lies sandwiched between its larger neighbors Senegal and Guinea, on the wild Atlantic coast. This little-known treasure has it all â like **a microcosm of Africa**, it boasts tropical landscapes, white-sand beaches, an ethnically diverse population and abundant wildlife. Visitors will discover a nation where ancient traditions are kept alive, and the locals love a party.
Once part of the kingdom of Kaabu in the 16th and 17th centuries, **Portuguese colonial rule** took hold and spread its way across the country, until the land was formally colonised as Portuguese Guinea in the 19th century. After independence was declared in 1973, Guinea Bissau was hailed as a potential model for African development.
Today, however, the country is struggling. Its vital cashew nut crop provides a modest living for most farmers â in fact, the nation is **one of the worldâs top five cashew producers**. But decades of political unrest have led to of Guinea Bissau being ranked **one of the poorest countries in the world**.
The **capital city of Bissau** reflects the many years of Portuguese colonial rule, with a **vibrant and colorful Old Town** full of crumbling European-style architecture. After taking in landmarks such as the Cathedral of Our Lady of CandelĂĄria and the Presidential Palace, a visit to the chaotic Bandim Market is the perfect way to get a feel for day-to-day local life.
The countryâs crown jewel is the forested, sparsely populated **BijagĂłs Archipelago, a collection of 88 islands** located about 50 km off the mainland coast. Powdery beaches and turquoise waters beckon in **âthe Polynesia of West Africaâ**, and this protected biosphere reserve features thriving communities of saltwater hippos, monkeys, chimps, buffaloes, crocodiles, and sea turtles, as well as hundreds of species of birds.
These islands are known for their **unique blend of African and Portuguese cultures**, and are home to **the Bijagos people**, an ethnic group with distinct customs and language. Colorful traditional festivals and rituals include the Bafata Dance, a celebration of fertility and the harvest.
**Letâs go!**
**Day 1 // Connecting flight from Dakar to Praia**
Meeting at Dakar airport at 17:30 for connecting flight to Praia 19:30-20:30. Immigration clearance, overnight.
**Day 2 // Santiago - Cidade Velha & Praia City**
After breakfast transfer to Cidade Velha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the first European colonial outpost in the tropics. Walk through the historic Rua Banana, visit the Royal Fortress of SĂŁo Filipe, and learn about the townâs role in the transatlantic slave trade. Famous visitors include Vasco da Gama, Columbus and Magellan, as well as numerous pirates who continually plundered the place. We will enjoy a walk around the small town, visit the museum at the fort and take a seafood lunch in a small bar on the beach. Dinner at a restaurant at Prainha Beach in the evening. Possibility for a night walk to the Farol de Maria Lia lighthouse.
**DAY 3 // Sao Vicente - Mindelo**
After breakfast, transfer to the airport for a flight to SĂŁo Vicente Island. Upon arrival, weâll head directly to Mindelo, the islandâs cultural heart.
Check in the hotel in the charming colonial-style city, then set out to explore its colorful streets, bustling markets, art galleries, and music bars. Walk along the waterfront, visit the replica of Lisbonâs BelĂŠm Tower, and relax on Laginha Beach. Enjoy the rhythms of Cape Verdean music and savor delicious local dishes in the evening.
**DAY 4 // Santo AntĂŁo - Porto Novo to Paul**
Today begins with a scenic ferry ride to the lush and mountainous island of Santo AntĂŁo. After arriving in Porto Novo, we will drive along the dramatic Corda Road, one of the most beautiful roads in the country, offering panoramic views of deep valleys and towering peaks.
Weâll make several photo stops, including a visit to the breathtaking Cova Crater, a dormant volcano now filled with farmland. The journey continues to the verdant Paul Valley, considered the greenest and most fertile valley in Cabo Verde. Settle into our hotel and enjoy the peaceful rural ambiance.
**DAY 5 // Santo AntĂŁo - Paul Valley**
Wake up to the fresh mountain air and set out for a hike in the Paul Valley, a nature paradise. As we walk along cobbled paths and terraced fields, pass through traditional villages where locals still live in harmony with nature.
We will get introduce to the flora and fauna of the region, and we'll see how locals cultivate sugarcane, coffee, and tropical fruits. Enjoy spectacular views of towering peaks, waterfalls, and lush greenery. Weâll also have the chance to visit a local distillery and taste the famous grogue, a traditional sugarcane liquor.
**DAY 6 // Santo AntĂŁo - SĂŁo Vicente - Santiago**
After breakfast, we say goodbye to Santo AntĂŁo and transfer back to Porto Novo for the ferry ride to SĂŁo Vicente. Upon arrival in Mindelo, enjoy some final free time for shopping or relaxing before heading to the airport for your flight back to Santiago Island. Take in the last aerial views of the islands as you transition from the mountainous beauty of Santo AntĂŁo back to the vibrant rhythm of Santiago.
**DAY 7 // Guinea Bissau**
Airport transfer for a flight to Guinea Bissau 01:45-04:20 (or return flight to Dakar 15:20-18:20),
After breakfast, we set sail for Bolama Island, once the proud colonial capital of Portuguese Guinea. From 1879 until 1941, Bolama served as the administrative heart of the colony, before the capital was relocated to Bissau. Later, in 1951, the territory was officially reclassified as an âoverseas provinceâ of Portugal, remaining under colonial rule until Guinea-Bissauâs hard-fought independence in 1974.
Today, Bolama is a place where history lingers in silence. The town, once bustling with officials and traders, is now a quiet shadow of its former self. Its faded colonial architecture, old government buildings, wide avenues lined with mango trees, and decaying neoclassical façades that tell stories of grandeur that never quite matched the harsh realities of island life. The scarcity of fresh water made the administrationâs ambitions fragile, and with time, nature reclaimed the streets and plazas. Strolling through Bolama feels like stepping into a forgotten museum beneath the open sky, where walls crumble gracefully under the tropical sun.
We will enjoy lunch in one of Bolamaâs local restaurants, savoring freshly caught fish and seafood. In the afternoon, we sail onward to Rubane Island, part of the BijagĂłs Archipelago, where the rhythm of life is dictated by the sea and wind. Upon arrival, we check into the lodge, a serene retreat surrounded by palm trees and the gentle sound of waves. Buffet dinner and an overnight stay in this tropical paradise.
**Day 8 // Sacred Hippos of Orango National Park**
In the morning we set off for an excursion to Orango Island, one of the natural treasures of the BijagĂłs. The highlight of our visit is the chance to explore the saltwater lagoons, where we may encounter the rare West African saltwater hippos. Revered as sacred animals by the local BijagĂłs communities, these hippos connect the deep spiritual bond between people and nature.
Beyond the hippos, Orango is alive with biodiversity: monkeys darting between trees, gentle manatees gliding through the waters, and a vibrant bird population filling the skies with color and song. It is not only a sanctuary for wildlife but also a cultural landscape. The BijagĂłs people live in a unique matriarchal society, where women often lead villages and play central roles in community decision-making. Learning about their customs offers insight into one of West Africaâs most distinctive cultures.
Lunch will be served as part of the excursion, often prepared by local hosts or enjoyed as a picnic amidst nature. By afternoon, we return to Ponta Anchaca, where the rest of the evening is free to relax by the ocean and reflect on the dayâs encounters.
**Day 9 // Relax in BijagĂłs and Return to Bissau**
Our final morning in the BijagĂłs is dedicated to relaxation. You can choose to lounge on the golden sands, enjoy optional activities such as kayaking or snorkeling in the crystal clear waters, or take a walk to visit a nearby village.
Later, we sail back toward the mainland, returning to Bissau, the capital city. Upon arrival, weâll hit the streets to historic old quarter, where narrow streets are framed by colonial-era buildings, worn yet full of character.
Bissau is a city where Africa and Portugalâs legacies intertwine and tropical vibrancy meets faded European façades.
Presidential Palace, the grand yet timeworn Cathedral of Bissau, and the Fort of SĂŁo JosĂŠ da Amura, are stronghold whose origins date back to the early Portuguese colonial era. We also visit Che Guevara Square and the Monument to Independence, a structure built in the 20th century by the Portuguese. Remarkably, after independence it remained the only Portuguese monument left standing. Renamed the âMonument of the Heroes of Independence,â it was crowned with a star, symbolizing a new national identity. Today, the square is a popular gathering place for locals, a vibrant meeting ground that connects past and present. Overnight in Bissau.
**Day 10 // Dakar and departure**
Transfer to airport for our early flight to Dakar, Senegal. Optionally you can take a short glimpse into the lively metropolis of Dakar, a city known for its bustling markets and vibrant music scene.
Bye bye Africa!

Practical Philosophy Meetup - Dubai đŚđŞ
**đď¸ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?**
Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no âofficialâ philosophy knowledge required! đ
Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic.
The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community đ
**đ HOW DOES IT WORK?**
Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CdjwVxcf2EO6vcLWUhaIdk?mode=ems_copy_c), along with jump-off points to get the conversation going.
When groups get bigger than 7-8 people, itâs important that we break into smaller groups. This way we are able to maintain a conversational flow as opposed to having our meetups feel like a discourse or lecture.
**General Meeting Agenda**
Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline:
* 17:00-17:15 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the official start.
* 17:15-17:25 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines.
* 17:25-18:45 - Break into small groups - introduce yourselves and general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the âjump-offâ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. Itâs not obligatory to answer them.
* 18:45-19:00 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions of the topic - each group gives a short 1-minute summary. Organizer concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo.
* 19:00 - The official meeting is over but itâs a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other.
**đ§§PRICING?**
Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that if we are meeting in a cafĂŠ, buy a beverage! Some chapters rent a space for us to meet, and they may ask for donations to help contribute to the cost of rent. Donations will always be 100% voluntary though!
**đ WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY**
**đŁ** âI feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting whatâs right and wrongâ - Ekam
đŁ âI got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.â - Daniel
**đ¤ FAQ**
* **âWhat will we talk about? What's the topic?**
âThe topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you donât see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CdjwVxcf2EO6vcLWUhaIdk?mode=ems_copy_c).
* **Do I need to study or read anything to attend?**
No preparation is necessary. This isnât a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and weâll discuss it, but it's not required.
* **Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on?**
The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school.
* **Is it mostly men that attend?**
Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we donât meet in any dark rooms.
* **Can I come alone?**
Of course you can, we encourage it :)
* **Can I be late?**
Please don't be! We do have a 15 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation.
* **Where do you meet?**
The location is posted in Meetup and our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CdjwVxcf2EO6vcLWUhaIdk?mode=ems_copy_c) group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group! If you want to know what other cities have a Practical Philosophy Club, you can see our chapters on our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/).

Packages will then be delivered to HEER2SERVE, local nonprofit that has weekly âservesâ, when they go out into local encampment areas and deliver needed items and food. Our care packages will be a part of that.
WQC will supply containers and food items for the care packages. So this time we are primarily focusing on gathering donations for keeping warm, including up to 50 of the following items:
Clean or new socks, hats, scarves and gloves
Handwarmers
Sanitizing wipes
Lighters
You are welcome to contribute items or just come and help pack. Leave a comment if you are bringing donations. We can also accept money donations through WQC.
Care Packages for Unhoused Folks- Volunteer Gathering
Volunteer with Westerville Queer Collective and the Neurospicy Meetup to build care packages for local unhoused folks, which will be distributed throughout local camps and neighborhoods via Heer2Serve (501c3).
Will you donate any items? If so, comment what will you bring Please make sure clothing items are clean and if youâre donating food, ready to be eaten without a stove or microwave.
We expect to assemble around 50-100 packages, so if youâll purchase items, please consider that amount (ie bulk individually packaged candies etc.). Fun and interesting book or entertainment item donation also welcome!
Package assembly will take place on January 17th from 10-12 am. Location TBA but will be in Westerville, Ohio.
The Lion in Bexley
Take a break from the craziness of the holiday season and relax at The Lion with us.
This is an new (to me) place in Bexley that serves cocktails, beer and wine, coffee, tea, pastries, snacks, caviar--a little bit of everything. The cocktail they made for The Drexel to sell for screenings of "Wicked For Good" was one of the best cocktails I've ever had. Their tea list is also impressive. Take special note of the Emperor's Private Reserve Pu-erh!

I don't know how large the place is, so it's possible we might find places to sit, or we might need to stand. This is an informal event to explore this interesting location.
