Accepted By Local Tribe Children
From the beginning, the local tribe children accepted Tippi. Sylvie said “When we came to a village with African children, within two minutes Tippi was the clown and people found her so cute.” Tippi says the African children were really accepting of her and liked playing with her, finding her hair especially fascinating. Unfortunately, she says she never found that kind of acceptance when she left Africa and went back to Europe.

Visiting Some Birds
The Seabird Islands off South Africa is a really important site for breeding for coastal birds. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Degrés went on a trip to the islands. Also, it is not surprising that Tippi became one with the flock. With arms outstretched, 6-year-old Tippi can be seen absolutely in sync with the surroundings.
