Love your impressions of the city of Berbera. Its really special for us in Somaliland as the former capital and our major port town. A quick historic fun fact: The Gulf of Aden used to be known as the Gulf of Berbera in the past, look it up, still dont know when it was changed but its cool that Aden and Berbera have taken turns with the name of the Gulf. If you get the chance go and visit Laas Geel which is on the road between Hargeisa and Berbera. Your comment about some of the people passing for someone from Arabia or India is actually grounded in history as Berbera had a large community of Arabs and Indians (I think they were called Banyals) who were traders, I know many families from Berbera who had a grandmother from Yemen, or India etc. Cool vlog and hope the appetite gets better!
Hallo. You have made it sofar. Thank you. I was abel to see that part of the World coz of you. It's quite interesting. May God keep you healthy. Take care
@A fascinating stuff. Thank you, Nikhil. @PS: I wonder what made those trees so large, verdant/green for a place which is basically a desert by the Sea? Maybe those are trees which the enterprising British brought to Somalia from far-away lands/colonies for their shed-providing qualities & deep roots to tap water necessary to stay green all year-round. I heard that the British introduced the Peruvian dryland "pepper tree" (?) into Hargeisa, Yemen, Kenya-Colony, Sudan, etc. - which, of course, were spread to the nearby Ethiopia. @Then, there is the story of the now ubiquitous Australian gumtrees [eucalypt trees] on the Ethiopian Highlands which virtually saved the Ethiopian Empire. The Australian eucalyptus trees were specially chosen & introduced to Ethiopia by with a help of a French botanist, around the time when Emperor Menelik2 of Abyssinia [Ethiopia] defeated the Italians in the famous battle of Adwa [near Eritrea] & settled on the highlands in the centre of Ethiopia which grew into the city of Addis Ababa. @Basically, the foundation & survival of the city of Addis Ababa plus the stability of the Abyssinian/Ethiopian Empire owed to the introduction of the humble & multi-purposed Australian eucalyptus tree. Had it not been for the fast-growing, sustainably-hasrvested & multi-purposed eucalyptus [as firewood, construction material, etc]; the Abyssinian/Ethiopian Empire had to keep marching towards the interior of Africa for all sorts of resources. Thanks again for a very educational video. Always wanted to visit Somaliland/Berbera/Gulf of Aden but your video is good - if not even better - than that.
cerigaabo sanaag is very green u should check it out but i seen this video is old so you probably left already lol also of the oldest mosques is in somaliland zeila
Take my honest piece of advice. You have been traveling for over two years and you are getting so low views, some videos only get 663 views. Is it really realistic to continue traveling? If you cannot earn money on this, you should get a real job. I suggest that you should go back to your well-paid job in America.
Oh man you have really drunk the somaliland propaganda kool-aid. This tribal enclave are well-known for perpetuating false claims about being separate country and nation, but if you travel just outside of those main cities of hargaysa and berbera you will find different views and perception of the history in this region. I encourage you to visit to awdal state, people over there don't buy this tribal separatist idealogy. Also if travel to east of the so called "Somaliland" you find SSC khaatumo state who fought a bloody civil war a year ago against this tribal regime in hargaysa and now they are under the control of federal government of Somalia.
@55thState Can you refute my statement with facts? Isn't this unrecognised entity a tribal project with no support both internally and internationally? Come on try to counter me with facts. This futile attempt to portray yourself as viable country have failed miserably and nobody is buying it.

Thanks! I would have never thought about the trees!
Great work. I don’t know how u do what you but keep going bro and stay safe. I suggest you should interact with the people bit more.
Thanks! I did speak with people in Berbera, but a lot of folks don't like to be filmed, so those interactions didn't make it into the vlog.
