Voodoo: Fetish market in Lomé in Togo in West Africa

Fetish market – voodoo. Dried dogs 🐕, horses 🐴, monkeys 🙈, snakes 🐍, crocodiles 🐊, raccoons 🦝, hyenas,
owls 🦉, kingfisher, 🦜 parrots, and any other bird 🦅 I can think of, …

Most from a time before modern medicine 💊 to put in food as powder or as totems to protect against diseases.
Just to give a reference to our Danish / Swedish Medicon Valley.

I have gathered dolls with national dresses 👗 since I was a kids. Then buying dolls with my mum and dad while travelling around Europe with them.

This is the first time the collection got dolls with needles 🪡 in them.

This coming week is going to be at the Voudon / voodoo festival in Togo 🇹🇬 and Benin 🇧🇯

Not the average mother daughter destination 🌍🙏🏼💎🧡❤️🗽🧩

Finally traveling again. Feeling the warmth of the sun and the earth, the exitement of adventure, the strange fascination of this place, the love of exploring and family and the peace of being where I wish to be right now (helped by being tired from the trip).
