African Clothes! a basan ( african habit)

This post is remotely related to thrill seeking. My friend Henri who is from West Africa told me a friend had just sent him a new outfit from africa. It's called a basan.
He couldn't wait for me to try it on, because he knew I would think it was cool! It was very comfortable, he made sure I put on the gold necklace to finish the look.
Henri speaks french and in french clothes are habit (ha-bee) so this me in af-re-con
ha-be.
Henri wants us to go to Ivory Coast where he is from to visit. I think it would be great too. Who knows someday I might be wearing these clothes thrillseeking in their natural environment!
