Liberiađąđˇ Today's country is Liberia. Africa's oldest republic was founded by people from the United States. At Waterside in Monrovia the air smells of salt, diesel and smoked fish, and nobody gets to business before the greeting. In Robertsport, surfers paddle out beside fishing canoes while old wooden houses peel in the sea wind. What stays with you is the mix: church clothes on Sunday, palm-oil cookshops on weekdays, and a republic whose origin story starts across the ocean. đ Places toâŚ
