Tony with Simon and Khady. Simon is from Oxfordshire England, a great friend of Tony’s and owner of the Little Baobab Guesthouse. Khady is Simon’s Senegalese partner. They have two lovely young boys. Simon sadly died in a vehicle accident near Dakar, Senegal, mid-late April 2017.
A tremendous traveller and fantastic guy and lover of all adventure, Simon will be truly missed by Tony, who will always treasure the time spent together sharing travel tales.
Rest in peace my friend.
