Cabo Pastel

Days 34-35: November 5-6, 2024 – Cabo Verde, Africa

Cabo Verde is an island country off the coast of Africa, whose name translates to Cape Green. But I will always think of it as Cabo Pastel. On both of the islands we visited, many buildings were pretty shades of pastel: pink, baby blue, lilac, peach, yellow. Not just quaint cottages, but multi-story apartment buildings, banks, even the electric company.

    So rare and exciting g to see buildings dressed up in colors.
    Why don’t more people, places, architects do things like this?
