First Post Covid Trip to Algeria (8): Village Sahel

 Every year in my home state of Tizi Ouzou a competition is held on cleanliness and hospitality some villages decide to participate with the goal of winning some big money so they can use it towards further improvements of their village.. I find this to be a great initiative and worthy of financial support by the government and private enterprises. Last year the village of Sahel won the competition and so we decided to visit this village… here are some pictures from the visit..
