I was born in Africa all those years ago, and it was perhaps destiny that I would return to it. It's been 15 years since I've been back, living somewhere on the continent and working in more than a dozen countries. From Egypt to Rwanda, from Namibia to Tanzania, and from Morocco to Benin.

But the more I see, the more I want to see. The more I know, the more I want to know. Africa. Always fascinating, endlessly troubling, forever unforgettable.

This week, I'm in Mali. I took these pictures with my Lens Baby.
