This West African capital city has the title of being one of the wettest you’ll ever visit with annual rainfall often exceeding a whopping 5000mm per year. But of course the lobsters don’t mind the rain. They are a Monrovian speciality & are served on the beach here & along with bustling markets & the Du river, a visit to this former colony of the American Colonization Society is a fascinating experience.

Also featuring in this video are the sights but more notably sounds of a bunch of growing & young Liberian musical talent in the form of a local brass band conducted & directed by my colleague & pilot James Trott who for over a decade now has used music and in particular brass instruments as a way to educate youngsters here. The teachings also go some way in equipping these kids with vital life skills. You can find out much much more about Brass For Africa here:
