Around the Islands...

I loved to visit the less touristic part of these islands. Sal and Boavista are the most expected ones because of their beaches.
São Vicente is the right place for the music and cultural life. Cape Verde people are very good at theatre even without great supports. And "mornas" and "coladeras" are the music you never forget. Is an unreal place...
Santo Antão is far away from world. Because of that it is great! Dry land, dry landscapes but beautiful! Well described at "Flagelados do Vento Leste", a book by Manuel Lopes.
São Nicolau is the place that Cesária Évora turned known all over the world. But it is an unimaginable quite place... Home of one rare tree that you find also and only in Canarias (Spain), Madeira and Azores (portuguese islands).
Santiago owns the capital - Praia. But one must not come back withot going to Cidade Velha, the first portuguese village in Africa...
