suva

Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Monday, 11 November 2013 16:57 (twelve years ago)

my first guess would have been india or sri lanka cos of the rickshaw but it doesn't feel right. somewhere in africa would be my guess, so i've only got like a million cities to go through.

Jibe, Monday, 11 November 2013 17:04 (twelve years ago)

closer to colombo than suva but a long way from both

glanced and thought it was dravidian based on first supposition (tropical with overseas indian population)

Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Monday, 11 November 2013 17:14 (twelve years ago)

this is in africa & that is a tuk-tuk. the above photo was taken just over a month ago which is the start of the ethiopian new year but it's not addis.

steppe and mountains = mongolia? i know the names of two cities there but i'm quite confident it's neither ulan baatar nor erdenet.
