Nouakchott sketches
Blog posted by bex on Aug 13th, 2009
Sketch by Isabel, Sketching in Mauritania and posted on Urban Sketchers.
A full update is coming soon but, for now, I just wanted to post these sketches of us in the Auberge Sahara, Nouakchott. They’re by Isabel, a Portuguese painter and sketcher living here in Nouakchott (and working at the Auberge Sahara) and whose website, Sketching in Mauritania, is full of wonderful sketches of Mauritania’s people and landscapes. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Really good sketches. Please pass my compliment on to Isabel. She is very talented.
Looking forward to your next blog. Don’t keep us in suspence for too long. Hope you have got rid of the flu bug
Lovely sketches. Loved to “see” you working in the maintenance of your bike.
Thanks both – will pass it on. Maria Helena, it doesn’t happen often so I’m delighted it’s been captured for perpetuity!
Sorry if this is a repeat. Loved the pics and never seen you so slim! I will log onto the website once I have recovered from my exciting journey from Edinburgh to Heathrow!
I thought I had sent this but apparently not! Not used to being on line again!
Lots of love
Mum/Sue
your website is so cool! not only do you have words and photos but you also have sounds and now drawings, i am very impressed. and i love the sketches, you both look so stylish xx
Loving all the updates… so envious I can hardly wait!!
Mum and Daphne: Yes, Isabel was very flattering :)
Helen, loving your updates too – brilliant stuff. Can’t believe you’ve had badgers and caterpillars for roadkill! My miles per beer skyrocketed in Mauritania but getting down to a much more appropriate level since getting to Senegal!
