Those fortunate to be

Sudanese wedding
would be fascinated
by the unique rituals
including the jertik
that is really an
exchange of
messages of faith and
hope between the
bride and groom.

Africa has a reputation for
warmth and hospitality but
Sudan is in a league of its
own, making it a joy to travel
in. It is common to be
invited to stay at someone's
home and most rural
Sudanese would never
dream of eating in front of
you without inviting you to
join them. Talking all the
afternoon away over a glass
or five of tea. drinking tea is
a serious daily ritual for
some people.2/12/2015 SUDAN REPORT PRESENTATION 44
