In Gambia, Bram Vermeulen follows two types of fortune seekers. On the one hand, Gambians trying to escape poverty and unemployment in their country by undertaking a dangerous journey to Europe.
On the other hand, the West African country is known for its love tourism, which mainly floats on economic inequality between older white tourists and Gambians hoping for monetary support or a visa. Love and happiness as a financial transaction.
