way of transportation is very easy and accessible , yango is everywhere . no fixed exchange rate , and no specific place to change money , its almost along the roads in some area , the safety is not high at all .no international restaurants , just some local restaurants that serves local dishes

Yaounde has a lovely fresh weather, nice food, friendly people, a very good Cultural franco camerounes center in downtown. The bad side of Yaounde is the so frequent elec tric blackout , thus better stay in appartments which have solar panels, and the lack of coins money of small size in general.

There are no real nice sites to visit or those what we visited were in very bad shape. The traffic and streets are in terrible conditions, there is a huge smog along the streets, you can see the clouds of smog, there are no traffic rules people would keep, motorbikes may come from any directions, it is a miracle how they survive it. We found some kms of better roads but they are eceptions. All richer sites are sorrounded by high walls and fences since the security is a big question. If you are not surrounded by local friends what we had, it woud be even worse. This country needs a lot of money to develop. Rubbish transport is not done therefor there are rubbish nearly everywhere. Most people are very kind and they live in deep poverty. I was warned several times to pull up the car window not to let any people steal anything. International reports are true unfortunately.

Yaounde is a wonderful crazy place full of people from all walks of life. The shops and markets range from tiny little stalls, to large modern shops. I would recommend caution when out and about after dark, although I personally didn't experience any problems or feel particularly unsafe. Eating out can be anything from a roadside stand or mobile barrow, to a high quality restaurant. Prices tend to be quite cheap. Beware, the traffic is horrendous and crossing the road can be extremely risky.
