What an absolute star you are. I've always wondered what the Matobo Hills were like, I was born in '49 in a Rondavel in the grounds of the Lady Rodwell hospital. Bulawayo. My dad at the time was working on a large dam in the area, my mother was pregnant at the time dad decided to show her the Matobo hills, which he too loved, now through you i am able to see it too and it's wonderful. Thank you so very much and a very Happy and healthy Christmas to you, from Scotland. xx
Aah, that's a wonderful message. Thank you so much. I'm thrilled to have been able to share these beautiful hills with you in Scotland! Warmest wishes from Zimbabwe.
We are due to visit this area and Victoria Falls this spring if things go well with covid. Thank you for a nice video it looks very unique and beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful landscape.I had a little chuckle at the sudden appearance of the craft market ,but they are trying to get their slice of the pie, if it's there at all.
Wow, makes me remember fondly of living in Wankie and Triangle and schooling at Falcon College. what a fabulous upbringing it was.... Thanks for the video
Him what is the name of the shrub that grows in the granite rock cracks, and when you pull it out and take it back home and place it in a glass of water, it comes to life. It has an amazing smell.
That's the Resurrection Bush - Myrothamnus flabellifolius. I've done several videos on it. I also make a really tasty craft beer from it. You should come and taste it one day!
Thanks, wonderful video. I am one of the homesick diaspora, hoping to visit one day!
Thanks for posting. Last went to Matobos in the 1980s!
Nothing has changed, I promise!

It's a very small pie, unfortunately. But yes, a stunning landscape!

So many wonderful memories of a beautiful country, what a shame.
Thanks. I just wanted to show people that it is STILL a beautiful country! Hopefully I've managed that.
Yes, they can wreck the towns but you can never wreck the countryside hopefully
So far so good! Rural Zimbabwe still as beautiful as it always was.
