A LITTLE WIKI INFO.



A brief blip about my new home... Mindelo, is a port city of Cape Verde in the northern part of the island of Sao Vicente. It has a population of about 70,000 and is the second largest city in Cape Verde after Praia.  The city is home to 96% of the entire island's population.  Mindelo is considered as the cultural capital of Cape Verde.  The town is surrounded by deforested mountains.  Mindelo's deep-water port, Porto Grande, is connected to Mindelo Bay, an underwater volcanic crater, and is used for cruise ships and other commercial traffic.
