I am planning a trip to Senegal in late November, to do research  on the raw materials for the innovative construction methods which I am developing.  Hope to take a close look at bamboo, many kinds of fibres from agricultural wastes, and the ground beneath our feet, aka clay​,  for the homes we would like to build .

thank you to Greg Shields for the lovely shot of the bamboo forest
