  • What is Gaborone like?
    Gaborone is the capital of Botswana and a base for the government. Situated in the south east part of the country with a population of 250,000. The city is rapidly growing and becoming a must visit while in Botswana.
    I lived in Gaborone for 2 years as a student while going to University of Botswana and I have noticed many developments since then.
    Join me as I walk around the CBD and The Fields Mall (new). It is a beautiful Sunday morning, the air is fresh and it is less busy.

    Walk On, Walk On
    With hope in your heart

    Haven’t been in Gaborone since 2017. This CBD has changed so much in just under 5 years. Can’t wait to see what it’ll look like in the next 10 years. Beautiful development.

      Yes it has changed a lot since then. And there's still more developments planned.
      I also can't wait to see what it looks like in the future.
      Thanks for watching the video.

      There are good black people other than Botswanans, like the people of Seychelles, Barbados, Bahamas; and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Having them as citizens would aid Botswana in its fight against authoritarianism and corruption.
      Botswana is, in my opinion, the best country for people that work digitally and value safety. I don't want that to be ruined by improper immigration laws.

    I don’t know why people are concerned that Gabs is underpopulated. Generally Botswana is a small country with a small population. The Gentleman also mentioned it was a Sunday morning so less and less people. When it comes to cities I would honestly opt for clean, less crowded places.
