Thanks for watching!
🔵 *Hope you are ready for this new series from Honduras,* it is definitely a heavy place, the people are very kind and fun people. Sadly, many of them are facing unimaginable hardships on a daily basis. Throughout this series, I hope to share with you a slice of their reality whilst visiting many areas of the country, the good, the bad and the ugly. If you want to see a photo I just posting on my Instagram of Honduras Capital city, you can see that here: instagram.com/p/CM9b3klFGCZ/
Thanks for watching and as always please share your feedback in a comment below. Nick 🇭🇳
Indigo Traveller,
Do you think it's easier travelling as a kiwi?
It seems no one really has issues with us.
Go to comayagua very safe
Writing from my bed while feeling depressed under the weight of few first world problems I feel I am ready to see more. Great job btw and thx!
@@titaniumwolf2 You are still a white privileged anglo saxon so...
stay safe,take care
He has the heart of a lion. He’s becoming the top journalist in the world and we have the privilege to watch it right before our eyes.
BIG FACTS...U HIT IT ON THE NAIL!
Lmao Ross Kemp did it before him and better.
@@HughesyTech like dam man go to Ross Kemp channel then 🤦🏿♂️ .
@@king_smitty860 lmao was watching Ross Kemp on TV years before he was on TH-cam.
Makes Nick look like child's play.
@@HughesyTech ok so what’s your point? You’re on someone else page hating in the comments because someone said something positive 🤦🏿♂️
I am from Honduras and currently living here (dental student), I will not say that everything is fine , because it's not. Most of the facts are right. Its sad that our goverment is the worst, democracy does not work how its supposed to. Elections are always rigged by corrupt politicians and this always leads to more poverty, its a vicous cycle. Not only the less fourtunate want lo flee the country in hopes of a better life , but the middle class youth want leave and never come back. Its the sad truth.
Like in any other country , locals know where its not safe to be , know that we have to be cautious when walking in public places etc etc, but overall its safe to say we don't all live in constant fear (I can't speak for everyone). So im actually impressed that you visted some hot spots that most locals would never, but that's our reality.
Thanks for visiting our country I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us. Besides our sad circumstances im proud to be a Honduran and pray for a better future for our country in hopes that younger generations will overcome the corrupt system.
@@ryane3543 it's not beautiful.
I would hv liked to visit this country but i don't knw how is visa processing since there is corona is it online or whatever
@Le Semen Demon Did you not read the part she says that she still lives there? Stop generalizing that all of us are leaving in the caravans, she’s a student in Honduras. Most people who leave don’t have any economic funds to survive a day, they are mostly part of the poor population. You sound ignorant.
Why would be want to go a third world shithole, Costa Rica is much better

Honduras is beautiful. Had a great time there. Had no issues, stayed away from dangerous areas. Just like I do in the U.S. and developed nations.
this is the best comment here
The whole country except for maybe the island is dangerous,
@@jaimeventuraosorio1265 No its not. Don't be ignorant
You just spoke the truth I honestly feel more safe in San Pedro than what I do here in Houston TX...Houston there is homicides all the time and robberies
Where did you stay in Honduras? What are the dangerous places?
My family is from Honduras. I was born in USA and have been to Honduras plenty of time to visit family. Never felt unsafe in San Pedro Sula so I agree it really depends on what you do and where you go. I’m excited for the rest of the videos!
Agreed. I'm currently visiting honduras since my parents are from there. It's my last day and im am extremely thankful for every second of it. San Pedro Sula is quite beautiful judging by my short visit to it then moving to my final destination. Honduras is not all bad. I hope it gets better and safer in these dangerous parts.
Yes!! I have been to SPS when ir was named the most dangerous city In the world and when it got better. I was also leaving the country for the military coup. Unless you are there doing anything stupid then you will be fine. In fact if you go as a tourist that it will be one of the best experiences of your life
@@andrescastro1828 100% Agree.
My dad lives thirty mins from sps and I'd really like to visit him
These is the type of videos everyone in this world should see.
Thank you, Nelson!
Better than the media!
@@fitfirst3963 anyone that still watches main media is living a lie. So cheers
And why should we see this??? Trying to raise support for a foreign country? Americans don't care about these people's problems and we don't want to pay their bills for them. If you're so upset for them you send them your paycheck. Instead of trying to trick idiots to support dumbocrat voting lists.
I think everyone in the world already knows life is a struggle everywhere. Except of course for pretty rich boys traveling the world to flirt with danger for clout online. *cue the dubstep*
My condolences to the driver & his family, on the losses of his wife & son.
My parents are from tela Honduras and this makes me happy that you went and covered my country. Thank you for being amazing 🤩

Thank you so much!
@@IndigoTraveller I mean it :)
Agree. Doing the job the media doesn’t do. Don’t even bother watching television anymore. Really appreciate what you do Nick!
Totally agree... The dude shows the good bad and indifferent, the way it should be.. 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Agreed
this guy deserves more attention!! he's better than some journalists nowadays by far!
We’ve been saying this for a few years! Truly shows the country from a humanitarian perspective!
Agreed. The man is doing great things.
The majority of journalist you mean?
@@JonathanVachon777 It seems these days the majority of television journalists go out to show a specific topic already knowing which way they are going to spin it and try to exaggerate it as much as possible without putting anything in context, just for for shock value. It's all about the ratings. That's why this channel is so refreshing, he puts his pre-conceptions aside and just has real conversations and asks real questions.
Exactly, nick is lovely person.
Indigo Travellers journalism is top quality, and the stories that he shows the world are not only important, but they're also an eye opener.

As a follower of both channels, it's interesting to see the correlation between a clearly collapsing global economy, the onslaught of natural disasters, the health crisis and migration. We are clearly in deep trouble everywhere.

@@mh23h me perdí. Qué tiene de malo el comienzo del video?
😭😭😭💔💔 I was there a couple years ago I was 22 on a mission trip to a children’s village in Tegucigalpita. The conditions were terrible there extreme poverty, gangs, violence. To see how much conditions have worsened since I was there especially from the hurricanes I am absolutely heartbroken these people have lost everything Oh Lord help these people!!!🙏🙏🙏✝️😭
Que pena ver a un país tan hermoso como Honduras en estas condiciones..un abrazo hermanos ❤️
The way you're pronouncing Nova Zelandia is absolutely Brazilian Portuguese and that brings a smile to my face haha. Amazing work, mate.
Fortunately, people were able to understand him haha.
7:03 that guy said yes but he didn't even know what "nova zelandia" was because the country is actually called " Nueva Zelanda" 🤭😂
He also said "Tenha um bom dia" in Portuguese hahaha
Yeah it is supposed to be pronounced as Nueva Zelandia* lol but people get it anyways.
@@cominooculto Nueva Zelanda no Zelandia.
I am midway through this video and I realize a common theme throughout all of indigo traveller's documentaries is that people just want to be heard and they want peace. La paz. Honestly. This is devastating to view and simultaneously grounding to see how resilient people are or can be. Thanks for sharing this insight. Cheers.
As a Honduran, I thank you for your braveness to come into my country. I know that for people from abroad it's a tough choice to make. Furthermore, showing the world what's happening in Honduras is a major thing because media is bought by the powered people and don't show reality in a daily basis.
My take as a San Pedro's citizen, is that if you get the luck to be born in a middle class family you would have the opportunity to grow to some extent, however, for people that have grown in poor neighbourhoods will be almost impossible to get a better quality life.
We the people of Honduras need to make a change in our communities and culture, from low class up to the highest. At last, it's a chance of improvement for all of us. Be a better Honduran, help us each other, don't skip the line or go through a red stop. We Hondurans know that we have to make those decisions as citizens, there is a lot of people that criticize the government which is truth, they are one of the major reasons we are in this situation. Nevertheless, we need to start also judging ourselves as citizens. How good are we with our own communities.
I hope the best for my country, I hope corruption ends, which I think in order to do so, we have to start educating ourselves outside of the government system which give us pretty much nothing to open our minds or have the opportunity to analyze.
Let's rebel ourselves with mentality.
“Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious.” G.O.

People are amazing despite of all things going on out there , these people are strong!!Thank you for sharing Indigo , I look forward to watch more !
💜💜🌏🇭🇳
For the record, I lived in Honduras (just outside San Pedro Sula) for 5 years and never had any issues with violence or feeling unsafe. Honduras is a beautiful country and safe if you stay out of the areas you should not be (like every other country). The people are amazing and helpful to foreigners and you are far more likely to be helped as you travel than feel uncomfortable. Please don't let this video put you off Honduras, it is not a reflection of what life is like for foreigners in Honduras.
I wouldn't go there I mite be robbed and killed
Wow, Honduras. I didn’t expected that. I had the other guess on my mind. Amazing and brave choice. We will follow it as always! Cheers!
Legends, thank you guys!
Wow, are you THAT ignorant?
People (especially tourists) shouldn't be fooled away by the idea that everything in Honduras is like in the Bay Islands (Roatán, Utila, etc.)
@@ACETAMINOFEN04 WHat do you mean? Every corner is beautiful and safe. Cities are the only issue.
The middle east, Pyongyang, Southeast Asia, San Pedro Sula, never even a scratch. Amazing. This guy is New Zealand's Neo
Hahaha thank you for watching :)
@@IndigoTraveller for sure bro, stay safe keep em coming. Great job dude, watch your six - cheers from the states! 🍻✌️
I imagine some part of the US would be more dangerous with all the gun crime and gangs.
I'm not sure why you consider SEA a dangerous place. SEA is very safe, their murder rate is lower than most of American countries, maybe with the exception of the Philippines.
SEA as a region only lags behind East Asia, Oceania and Europe.
@@misterzee5736 not that this is a competition or anything
I’m so glad a person with a big platform like you are showing this part of my country, and not only the touristic aspect, thank you♥️
Thank you for making this video and showing the hard but true reality of my country. As a Honduran who lives in Honduras it hurts me to no end to see my country bleeding.
Thank you again for this video ❤️
👌🏼
Much sympathy and support from me, I've been traveling in Central America in the past although not Honduras, interesting part of the world!
@Schuyler Jones las escuelas públicas (las del gobierno) son muy malas, pésima infraestructura y educación. Sin embargo, hay muchas escuelas privadas y bilingues, que son excelentes.
@@jussiuutaniemi3767 Honduras is a beautiful five star country. Is a country with so much potential and beauty, sadly corruption it also a big part of the reality of my country.
You should totally come, I'm sure you are going to love it.
@Schuyler Jones Si, estoy en mi último año de universidad, estudiando Relaciones Internacionales y Diplomacia.
am from San pedro Sula and I've been staying here for 7 years but i heard of the Rivera Hernandez so it was a fun learning fact and its a better exchange money rate in the bank than the black street market thank you for representing my country. Big fan of yours!
be safe
To my friends I’m like the most well traveled man in the world but when I watch this channel I feel like I don’t have a single stamp in my passport. What a legend you are, keep bringing us the real news that’s rarely shared with us from the sources we’re supposed to trust.
Damn you really woke up Chris Breezy
Spent almost a month in Honduras, never felt unsafe. Didn’t go out at night, and paid attention to my surroundings. A lot of poverty, but the people were decent, respectful and humble.
I go to Honduras all the time and as long you're not wearing anything expensive and looking for problems you'll be alright.
I lived there for a year when I was 18 (in Danlí). Its dangerous if you hang out with the wrong people or go in the wrong neighborhoods. Warmest people on earth and so beautiful, corruption is a dick.
Please report this video. He made it for all the wrong reasons. Totally unprofessional.
@@mh23h Explain?
@@Mrrobot951 just showing the worst parts of it is not objective, and does nothing to represent the reality of the country.
In the 1970s it was a wonderful, safe place to visit and vacation esp Tegucigalpa and Lake Aqua Azul. Now, it's a war zone. Sad to see the people there suffer so much. Thank you for your report. I hope and pray they can see better times in the future.
My children and I love your very educational and highly emotional videos. Thank you and god bless Indigo Traveller!
Thank you Terry, much love to you and your family! Appreciate your support!
I traveled to Honduras in 1996. I was a young backpacker and a bit oblivious to the element of danger there. I spent a week on Utila, one of the Bay Islands, and traveled along the coast and into the interior where I did some hiking in a national park (and almost stepped on a deadly coral snake!). Coming from Guatemala, I visited the spectacular Mayan ruins of Copan, then headed to San Pedro Sula. I honestly didn't know how dangerous it was and I think being a bit oblivious to all of that was actually good, otherwise I may never have gone to Honduras and experienced the warmth of the people and beautiful scenery. There were a couple of times that I didn't feel safe and managed to get back to my cheap hotel room. I should probably say that I have a lot of experience traveling through "third world" countries where poverty and crime rates are high and was born in Venezuela, back when Venezuela was a relatively safe place to live. But I feel comfortable exploring such places although now that I'm older I am more cautious...
One thing I’ve learned traveling around the world is “Nowhere on earth is nearly as safe or as dangerous as you may think it is.”
nah
Go to switzerland or sweden.
In Japan, most homicides across the country kind of reach the national news...
@@nyChannel09 Switzerland: yes
Sweden: not anymore
@@martinusv7433 ?? Sweden not anymore?? Well I can only speak for switzerland, so im sorry to mention Sweden
You're so great at what you do nick, visiting places with huge issues but making sure the focus remains on the place and its people (and not you, the TH-camr) . You facilitate the story telling us a respectful and dignified manner, which is so important. Thank you for allowing us to see what life is like in these places.
This is where my dad is from and I always daydream of moving there.... but then not really because I know I’m lucky to be in the USA. Please post as much as you can about this country!! The fact that this is so current is legit blowing my mind. It’s like I was meant to find this video! Can’t wait to see more.
Check out my peace corps videos. I lived in Honduras for three years
I mean you could still stay around there on the Atlantic side even if it’s not San Pedro Sula. The Bay Islands like Roatán is peaceful & touristy with minimal crime. My ex has family from all over the Atlantic side. Most spoke English as a first language or a 2nd language. They always felt safe there even though a lot of them spent most of their lives in the US. It’s safe to say most islands off the coast of Central America are safer than the mainland (like Belize & Nicaragua).
Honduras is dump unless you go to the islands..
@@eliv.o7105 Have you been to the country? If not, then I recommend you to stop commenting if you’re not even informed on the current situation of the country and the past events that have caused it to drown in corruption. Watching a documentary or news is not “ knowing the country” This country has suffered a lot, call it a “dump” or whatever you want but at least they continue fighting to someday hopefully gain justice for the destruction the politicians have made.
Please go back

Thanks for sharing these videos from a country that is rarely shown on USA news shows. It makes one appreciate one’s own country more.
True, all we get here is about the immigrants at the border and that even depends on what channel you watch whether it be Fox or CNN
It's a shame that a lot of Latin American countries have these problems, they could be extremely prosperous and developed! Hopefully, we'll get there.
Of course you are right.. But being ruled by a bunch of thieves is a major issue...and does not allow to get a better life...😕

@@luissilva8851 I understand your point of view, the channel is about showing "difficult situation"...
So glad you are doing this series. So informative !
just watching this first video in Honduras and its amazing ! maybe your best yet ! be safe out there !
Your nationality has saved your skin numerous times, Nick. As a Kiwi, you pose no threat or danger, as those who hear that you’re from New Zealand are puzzled and unsure how to react. If you were from the US, then that may provoke aggression from those who are not so friendly to the Stars and Stripes. Go well and keep showing that friendly Kiwi wherever you go!
This view is true. Americans will find themselves unwelcome in many latinamerican regions because of the awful perception some people have of the USA government and corporations. You can´t imagine what goes on behind-the-scenes in order to shoot some scenes by our friendly Kiwi. It´s not simple as it seems. So, most people who don´t speak the language should avoid visiting certain nations or regions just because THEY feel friendly toward other nationals. Stay were your feel safe and have access to all you need.
I'm from Honduras, but I don't think anyone would hurt him if he were American. They ask him if he is American because of his physical appearance because he actually looks like one. I have seen some Americans with their Protestant churches living in Honduras.
@@leninchirinos6180 Yep, you’re totally right.
Idk I'm here now. Not alot of love for USA right now. Gotta know ppl to stay safe.
really? i never felt threatened in any places i went in central america because i was american. i traveled as a solo female and most reactions were asking why i was alone/where was my husband. nothing to do with america. i think that's a weird generalization. just don't be a dick and you won't get treated like one.
Yeah I remember those hurricanes, they were all over the news cuz previously there were two other hurricanes that hit Mexico so people were worried if those other two would come to Mexico but they only hit Honduras and El Salvador but much harder than the Mexican hurricanes.
#HAARP #hondurascoup
They didn't hot El Salvador really. It was mostly Guatemala Nicaragua and Honduras
@Tropical Breeze2000 sons will suffer the sins of the father. we spent years destabalizing Latin America and its finally starting to bite us back in the ass . its pretty much an open border now..
@Tropical Breeze2000 yup. See the effects in my own town. Schools overcrowded with a budget that is stretched to the breaking point bc of the ESL teachers that have to be kept on staff to teach remedial English and our little hospital is on the verge of bankruptcy bc of the insane amount of uninsured migrants that use the emergency room for everything. They're supposed to be reimbursed by the fed but the money is tied up in bureaucratic bullshit so it takes forever to reach their coffers. The u.s. will see a split in the next 20 or so years I believe bc this is not sustainable.
@Tropical Breeze2000 Did you forgot we stole this land from the Indians?.
This video shows how we take our everyday luxuries for granted. Be thankful and stay humble people 🙏🏻
I actually love these videos and the insight they give I’m rooting for you bro stay safe
I love how balanced you portray countries it gets a much more realistic view of the actual situations much better than mass media or many youtubers, love Ho duras coffee and love to their people!
My family is from El Salvador and they have very similar problems to Honduras. I think you're one of the first youtubers I see go to Central America and talk about these problems
El Salvador has gotten a lot better these days and is a lot safer than Honduras now! Thanks to bukele!
I’m obsessed with his documentaries! They are so professional and I love the way they are edited. Nick asks great questions and I love his personality & demeanor…he’s a great listener & never forces his opinions or beliefs on others. It doesn’t hurt that he’s nice to look at and has that cute accent;-) I hope he keeps traveling it up…for those of us who can’t travel to these dangerous places, thank you for doing it!! Everyone should watch these, especially spoiled westerners (I may sometimes feel like one ha)

I am from Honduras, I never felt as much love towards my country as the others... I was raised with the thought that one day I will live in another country.
Honduras has a lot of potential to be a great place but sadly is not, maybe someday things will get better
It's really nice to have a local guide. I always had to walk around solo.
Watching this video I can't help but think a lot of the violence and carnage in Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala goes back to the disastrous foreign policy of the Reagan Administration.
Partially, along with the U.S. deporting MS-13 and Barrio 18 gang members back to Central America and the U.S.'s support for military dictatorships and genocidal warlords which further destabilized the region.
@@TheFireElevator absolutely
Problems in nations south of our border goes all the way back to the fifties and our Secretary of State, John Foster Dulles. The term Banana Republic arose from our colonial and imperialist interventions and policies starting (but not ending) with United Fruit. Gun running, dope dealing, terrorist militia supporting Reagan was carrying on a long established legacy of negative US intervention in Central and South American nations. Those nations are plantations for one percenters in the US. Our government has long supported the exploitation of the people and resources in Central and South America, and sides with corrupt RW governments.
Jack McKeague...great point. 100%. Thank you.
@@TheFireElevator yeah don’t deport them..leave them in the USA 😂, what an idiot.

Welcome to Honduras man, i hope you enjoy your stay here.
Thanks for sharing it to the world.
It is awesome that you are doing this sir, thank you.
Been coming to Honduras since 2008 and living here for 7 years. I have travelled all over this country. Sure, there is danger here, but 90% of the country is safe and peaceful. I have never felt fearful for my life here, never!
@baileyboy73 baileyboy73 you're wife is probably from the hood, but now she got a sugar daddy, doesn't have to go back to the hood where she came out of.
Subscribed! As an immigrant from Honduras I thank you for attempting to shed light on the terrible corruption that plagues the world, specially felt in my homeland, thank you!
Do you think that the common population has to do lots on how the country is the way it is? Hondurans have a bad rep in Guatemala and El Salvador and here in Canada, within the Latin community they have a bad rep too...violent and don’t like to work? Why is that?
@@eliv.o7105 Because of the caravans. The caravans are usually filled with immigrants from many countries from Latin America, specially Central American countries and Mexico. However, recently a lot of Hondurans have left the countries in those caravans because of the current situation of the country, if you know, the government is terrible, it’s a drug trafficking government that steals, kills and doesn’t care for their people. The people of the caravans are consisted of the poor population of those countries. Most of them run away because they are the most affected economically and socially. After the hurricanes many of them were left with nothing, multiple people died, and the government did absolutely nothing. We hate the president, he’s probably the worst president in the entire planet. He’s managed to destroy the country and drown it in corruption, poverty and violence in a lapse of just a few years. I just want you to be aware, that regardless of what reputation these people have, not all the country is like these. Honduras is a country that has endured a lot, but a lot of people still work hard everyday to make it better. There are hardworking, honorable and humble people, just as there are bad and lazy people. I guess it’s a generalization, but I really dislike that. It’s a very ignorant view, it’s like saying Mexicans and Colombians are all drug traffickers, Venezuelans are all criminals, it’s a very ignorant way of thinking, because I know people from this country who have sacrificed their life to give their family and kids a better life (legally) and to call all people from a nationality lazy or something else, it’s insulting. That’s my rant, hope you understood something at least.
@@eliv.o7105 The problem is not the Honduran people and culture.
All it's problems are due absolutely to a corrupt government.
You see, in 2009 we had a growing economy and the country was overall becoming more safe.
But, USA took away our President, this because he was allied with Hugo Chavez.
Since then, our presidents have been USA puppet for USA interests despite how cartoonishly corrupt they are.
@@eliv.o7105 we have enough proof of USA institutions stopping vote counting and ordering to declare a candidate who clearly din't won.
I recommend a research on Luis Almagro for more accurate information.
@@leeloo2071 He says that because whoever has had touch with houndurians knows they don't like to work. 50 percent of them, which is too much, obviously not everyone. The caravans are mostly from Honduras, some form el Salvador and Nicaragua and finally just a very few ones from Guatemala.
Honduras still have many good things to give to the World.
Like what?

Nah, fam. Come and bomb us, kill us all and then you can create a new and better society. Just keep the language.

@@MOBHITMOBHIT ohhhhhhhh yes I never thought about that.. Its really sad to see these beautiful countries with so much poverty and sadness. It is all brought about by design by these ruthless elites in political power on purpose.
Man you keep blowing me away recently , gettin right in there amongst it.. love to see it so thank you!
That is my country. I would recommend you to visit the tourist places that I assure you will surprise you a lot but I think it is a very good thing that you teach the world the reality in which my people live. I am Honduran, I hope and you enjoy my country.🇭🇳
I think your country and people are beautiful! I pray for your country to have better time for the future!
Lot of respect for you nick. Its easy to travel to safe countries and mKe documentaries but your going to places many avoid! Watching from Ireland.respect !
Your videos should be played in schools across the world. Cheers to you, sir!
Oh, no, no, no....they would all need counseling and their little lives might be ruined.
Schools lock down
Love all of this, thank you for filming. You are an inspiration. 💗 I miss travelling.
Loved the video Bro Keep up the good work am glad you came here and covered the two parts from San Pedro Sula
I visited it back in 2019 despite it’s troubles it’s a really beautiful country with great people but he’s not wrong it had a very edgy vibe the whole time I was there, their was an unfortunate level of danger
This is great content! I don't understand why anyone would dislike this video.
You just got a new subscriber. I’m so intrigued by this. Thanks for sharing the issues and local’s perceptions and experiences. So important to be conscious of the world around us
Thank you for your job. Its amazing!
Damn it's 10pm in Australia and I have to work tomorrow.....oh well guess I'm going to work tired
Haha thank you, Phil!
Thank you for visiting and giving people perspective so they can make their own choices. Honduras is a beautiful place and most of the crime happens in neighborhoods the tourist would never visit anyway. Be safe
Algo que tal vez no sepas, pero durante los huracanes Eta y Iota, se hicieron obras de caridad por el pueblo hondureño. El gobierno no aporto tanto como la propia gente, yo puedo decir que fui ayudar a repartir comida y ropa, sinceramente fue algo que te deja pensando en lo privilegiado que uno puede llegar a ser.
Edit; se me olvido agregar, en las obras realizadas por varios ciudadanos se podia escuchar el canto de “Solo el pueblo salva al pueblo.”
Hands down the best vlogger on TH-cam! Your presentation and editing skills are superb! Journalistic approach is a force to be proud of! Thanks for your great work in teaching the world about the rest of the world. Your efforts are certainly selfless. Blessings to you!
Man, thank you for showing the world to us while we are on lockdown. Truly an eye opener. Hopefully you can go and visit us soon here in the Philippines. Keep safe
My pleasure, thank you for joining me. Hopefully you can travel soon :)
for sure sa Tondo yan 😃
Was in Jesus Del Toro, Honduras in 1998 building a schools with the US Army. Even then, they told us not to go out after dark in a that small town
It's "Jesus De Otoro". One of the sleepyest towns in Honduras. I've been there many times. No problems. You were with the US Army, that says a lot. I was with the US Air Force and now I'm a retired civilian living in Honduras. As US military members, we were greatly protected so nothing would happen to us, which would bring unwanted attention to our presence and get our commanders fired; and part of that protection was to warn us that every place in this country was dangerous - hence the going out after dark restrictions. I still comply with that as much as possible. But, I'd be doing the same in New York, Miami, and LA. Better to be safe than sorry.
Ok, well, I'm here in Honduras right now and I go out at night all the time. Honduras is no different than the USA. I would never go alone in the Southside of Chicago. There are areas of danger here in Honduras, but 90% of it is perfectly safe.
,@@johnrrosario every place in this country is dangerous, what a joke! Bald-faced lie!
Thanks for sharing your trip.
Love your channel bro. I’ve been watching your amazing content for a few years now and hope you keep the videos coming.
stay safe Nick... Look after yourself there mate ... Many Beautiful moments are waiting for you in Cuba !
Thank you! One day soon!
Very enlightening. Thank you for going to Honduras and sharing. I have to say I just yesterday drove past (twice, on the way to and back from my destination) the supermarket where 10 people were shot and killed almost a week ago in Colorado, USA. I can see the suffering in Honduras, and how vulnerable people are. But it’s not like the US is so great either when we can’t safely shop in a supermarket. It’s true that it was not organized crime that did this here. But I was struck that there was shock at six people were killed in the city center there and reflecting on how 10 were just killed this past week not far from where I live. We truly live in a violent world - I’m thankful for kindness amongst the violence as is shown in this video. 🙏🏼
Your video production and story telling inspires us so much. 🙌🏽
From Armenia and Georgia(when I started watching)to Honduras 2021. Easily the most under rated travel channel!
One of the best channels on youtube!!!
I travelled through Honduras in 2014, hitched hiked and stayed away from the touristy areas. I didn't have any issues and the people were super nice and generous - even though it was evident that I was foreign (from the UK).
Such a beautiful country, pity the curruption and crime is taking its toll 😕
Thanks for at least taking a good impression of us, glad you came
My people🥺, it could be such a beautiful country if the violence wasn’t such a bad thing and if it would be more modernized 🥲
I am just addicted to your videos and your humble assessment of the countries and people you visit - the insights into life on the ground are not like most others on TH-cam who often just fool around. Easy transition to a career in journalism when / if you have had enough of the travels (but please don't stop anytime soon!)
Your best video so far! Very well filmed, edited and overall produced. The Honduran people seem very warm and caring. Probably an excellent country to visit if and when this Covid nonsense comes to an end.
Goodness, your driver losing his wife and son then going through the hurricanes. Heartbreaking! I can imagine that this series might be a controversal one when it comes to the people from Honduras (and other countries) trying to migrate to the United States. I am an Amereican (now living in Norway) and have many family members and friends who are so against the people trying to migrate there. But others (like me) see exactly why they are doing it and have empathy and compassion for them. If more people saw these videos and saw why they want to leave behind maybe they would have a little more understanding of why they feel the need to leave their country. I feel that your vlogs are right up there with the National Geographic videos. Keep up the good work and please be safe. Hugs from Norway!
What's Norway's policy on migrants? How many asylum seekers have Norway admitted over the past 10 years? What policies & programs does Norway have in place to assimilate migrants? What share of migrants comes from poor countries vs. developed countries (eg Spain)?
Exactly! Its so sad but its partly the blame on the honduras government,
@@taterkaze9428 I have lived here for almost 19 years. I moved here to marry my Norwegian husband so I do not know all the answers you are asking. There are many immigrants and refugees and asylum seekers in Norway. I don't know the exact numbers, but it is a lot. Everyone that moves to Norway is given the chance to go to the language school to learn Norwegian for free. Most of the refugees/alylum seekers are from the Middle East and from Africa, mostly Somalia. As a matter of fact, our next door neighbors are a family of 9 from Somalia. The country tries to intregrate them into society with Norwegians.
SUCH A SICK INTRO!! 👏🏻 👏🏻
Glad you made it out alive, man! My cousin went to San Pedro Sula many years ago on his way to the Bay Islands and had no idea what he was getting himself into. (He saw how much closer and cheaper it was to fly into SPS than Tugucigalpa and figured what the heck.)
Wow men thanxs for this amazing vídeo of my City i lived here in Sps, welcome i hope u like it, and is not than dangerous as all people think.. If u are a good person of course, take care men! Hope to see more soon
Imagine being a resident and having that flood mess up your life. So sad to see the state of those houses.
I don't blame these people wanting to move to the us but the goverment on honduras is so corrupt that they don't care about their people.
New Orleans after Katrina was probably the worst
@@californiahunter5136 okay , but these people are already poor , so what is your point ? Plus the US helps their people soooo ?
