Published on: Wednesday 07 August 2019
It is 4 pm on May 21st. We land in Luanda. It's the beginning of winter or cacimbo, as it is called in Angola. As the plane descends, the heat near the ground causes the air to shimmer, promising warmer weather than expected at this time of year. Betty, a photojournalist, and I were about to be warmly welcomed by the weather and by the people.
We settled into a hotel in downtown Luanda, where tall modern buildings overshadow the older colonial-era houses.
