The dating scene in Yaoundé

Dating in Yaoundé is calm, sociable and a little more reserved than in Douala. As Cameroon's political capital, it has many civil servants, diplomats, students and professionals, and friends often introduce potential partners. Restaurants, cafés and open-air bars are the main meeting places. French and English are both used, along with many local languages.
