The charcoal bread of Kinshasa, baked in charcoal ovens and sold on every street corner before dawn. Makala is crusty on the outside, soft inside, and costs almost nothing. Every Kinois has walked to the corner at 5 AM with coins in hand to buy makala warm from the oven. It is not breakfast, it is survival with dignity.
You experience Tonga's distinctive animals including humpback whales that migrate through its waters, sea turtles, tropical seabirds, and flying foxes native to the islands. You observe that Tongan households typically keep dogs, cats, pigs, and chickens as pets and livestock. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You know Bermuda through its world-famous Bermuda shorts and the island's cedar furniture and crafts that became luxury exports in the 19th and 20th centuries. You wear or admire these items because they represent Bermuda's elegant colonial heritage and the island's reputation for refined, distinctly Bermudian style.
