Sao Tome Island Photo Gallery by J Ponces at pbase.com

Sao Tome Island

The Angolares are the most interesting people on these Islands.
My Friend and Godfather Fernando de Macedo Ferreira da Costa, Fefe, as he was know by his friends, was their undisputed King!
He was the best, most horrid example how the power and money corrupts people: he did everything for his two countries, Portugal and Sao Tome, but died alone, almost abandoned by all...
...because he was not useful anymore!
O TEMPORA O MORES!
You are surelly in a better place now, wherever that is...

Book now available, also as an homage! https://www.blurb.com/b/9650794-sao-tome

My new most favorite gallery on PBase, wonderful but slightly disturbing. Not a great place for humans to live. I have heard of it before because it has many endemic birds!
