Off the Beaten Path - Season 5 Episode 11 Côte d'Ivoire
Côte d’Ivoire, often known in English as Ivory Coast, is a West African country on the Gulf of Guinea. Once under French rule until gaining independence in 1960, it is now home to nearly 24 million people and more than 60 ethnic groups, each with its own culture and traditions.
While the official capital is Yamoussoukro, the true cultural and economic heart of the country is Abidjan, a vibrant city where diverse communities live side by side. Alongside local ethnic groups, you will also find strong French and Lebanese influences shaping daily life.
Here we meet Simona from Piešťany, who moved here four years ago with her husband from Belgium. Together they are raising their young son, and she hopes to pursue a career in shoe design. Our journey begins in the lively streets of Abidjan, full of energy, colour, and everyday life.
