Exploring the Beauty of Cape Verde: My Travel Photo Journey by Miabo Enyadike

 Exploring the Beauty of Cape Verde: My Travel Photo Journey


Some years back, I travelled to Cape Verde and I had a marvelous time and whilst there I did take a lot of photos in Cape Verde, but with a crazy schedule like mine, years went by without sharing them now I can and I'm doing just that sharing!....

Cape Verde, stunning archipelago off the northwest coast of Africa, is a true gem waiting to be discovered. My recent trip to this captivating destination left me with unforgettable memories and a collection of travel photos that I’m thrilled to share with you.

From pristine beaches to vibrant local culture, Cape Verde offers a diverse range of experiences that are a feast for the eyes and soul.

One of the first things that struck me about Cape Verde was its breathtaking landscapes. The islands boast a mix of volcanic mountains, lush valleys, and pristine coastlines.

My camera couldn’t stop clicking as I captured the rugged beauty of Fogo Island, with its towering volcano and unique black sand beaches. The contrast between the stark volcanic terrain and the clear blue waters was simply mesmerizing.

The local culture in Cape Verde is equally enchanting. In Santiago, the largest island, I immersed myself in the rich history and vibrant traditions of the Cape Verdean people.

From the lively markets in Praia to the historic streets of Cidade Velha, every corner of Santiago has a story to tell. My photos from these locations are filled with the warmth and vibrancy of the local life, showcasing colorful buildings, and traditional music.

Cape Verde’s beaches are nothing short of paradise. Sal Island, known for its stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters, was a highlight of my trip. I spent days lounging on the soft sands of Santa Maria Beach, swimming in the turquoise sea, and capturing the serene beauty of the coastline.

Throughout my journey, I was continually amazed by the friendly and welcoming nature of the Cape Verdean people. Their hospitality added a special touch to my trip, making every moment even more enjoyable. My photos not only showcase the natural beauty of Cape Verde but also the warmth and spirit of its people.

If you’re looking for a destination that offers a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and relaxation, Cape Verde is the place to be. I hope my travel photos inspire you to explore this beautiful archipelago and create your own unforgettable memories.

  ARTMIABO INTERNATIONAL ART FESTIVAL  AMIAF 2024   THEME: 'SCULPTORS ODYSSEY"       The act of sculpting is an intimate dialogue between the artist and the material.

Transforming Found Objects into Functional Art: A Journey of Creativity and Revival by Miabo Enyadike

Transforming Found Objects into Functional Art: A Journey of Creativity and Revival I craft inspiring art predominantly u sing found objects, aiming to revive both their functionality and beauty. Transforming discarded items into art brings me a profound sense of fulfillment, creating pieces for others to appreciate. Over the past five months, I've delighted in the process of repurposing found objects into functional and purposeful art and craft. My primary goal is to imbue these objects with value, aspiring to inspire others to unleash their creativity with the resources around them. The range of objects I work with is diverse, encompassing egg crates, egg shells, wood boards, old boxes, disused tiles, jean pants, old vases, used bottles, and more.
