A letter from Timbuktu: Project in Mali delivers work and fun

A letter from Timbuktu: Project in Mali delivers work and fun Cards bring fabled city to life, and a livelihood for unemployed tour guides.  By Bailey Berg, Washington Post December 25, 2020 11:32pm Text size Copy shortlink: It s not often that Phil Paoletta receives disgruntled emails about his and Ali Nialy s project, but when he does, it s because someone thinks their West Africa-based company is a scam. The duo started Postcards From Timbuktu in 2016 with a mission to help unemployed tour guides gain an income by sending cards from a city that s become shorthand for a far-flung, if not imaginary, place. They think Timbuktu isn t a real place and we re printing fake postcards and stamps to make it seem like something s coming from a place in a joke, Paoletta said.
