    David Livingstone did not discover Zambia. Zambia already existed before he came here. Just like he did not discover Mosoi-o - tunya. It was there already.

      Ofcourse! Only meant to say, that he led the exploration of the area that eventually led to religious/missionary activities and later European colonisation - would that be right?

      ​@@TheBackpackstersDavid Livingstone was the first European to document the Victoria Falls and so helped the outside world know about them. So you saying that he discovered them is not entirely inaccurate if one is talking of making them known beyond their local community.

I am really inspired by what you do and cant wait to reach your level. I have started touring Zambia on a motorbike and i have first started with Chililabombwe town and i will move to chingola and other towns. i will show you the culture and people and way of life in these areas. tag along guys.

    David Livingstone was an explorer and had nothing to do with the colonisation of Northern Rhodesia - Cecil John RHODES was responsible for the colonisation of Southern Rhodesia , he was a British Diamond magnet based in South Africa , and founder of the biggest Diamond company in the world - De-beers Diamond company .

      @ it is very interesting. His name is Zanco Mpundu Mutembo. He was a protester who was imprisoned in front of 18 soldiers and was told to break the chains or get shot. However, he successfully broke the chains. He lived a long life and died at 85 years old. He was also a freedom fighter.

    Hello guys thank yiu for this vlog. How is the ater supply and wifi situation currently? I heard there is a major drought currently affecting these two things and also causing prices of food to skyrocket. How factual is this in your experience?

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, the draught has made things quite challenging. We did not experience too much of a water problem first hand, but there's definitely an impact here. Extended load shedding is common right now too - so pumping water, Wifi, cooling - all impacted. Food prices were alright.

    Came all the way from India only to come eat vegan shawarma in Lusaka? You remind me of an Indian friend visiting Zambia a few years back on a work tour and I made it a must he could have a memorable stay. I was frustrated because he kept insisting on eating spicy indian food on each night out. I one evening threatened to give up on him and he came back apologetic the following morning promising he'd never again take my effort at hospitality for granted. .... and then he tasted spicy braii chicken at Family 24 Northmead. You could honestly do better. LOL
