Am Kenyan but damn, Senegal is freakin beautiful 😍
I soooo wanna visit ❤❤
Kudos Austin for showing us this part of Africa 🌍😊
I'm Kenyan too and I'm wowed by how Senegal looks❤
What has you being "Kenyan" got to do with Senegal content?
Kenya’s are patriotic
Thank you❤️
@@AustonHolleman Patriotic to the point of being childish with it and overdoing things such as constantly claiming superiority over others in the comments thread.
I'm really liking Senegal now. I hear they also have a huge international jazz festival there too.
We do, in Saint Louis
Jazz festival and major art festival. They also play jazz in many restaurants/hotels by the seaside. I'm Nigerian and the Senegalese are lovely people.
@fistandpen2505 yeah they have a lovely culture and a good reputation as a people.
Auston the way you talk alot of good things about Kenya while you're on other countries show how you truly love and miss Kenya anyway Dakar is so beautiful especially on the beach areas, good luck and safe journey in Cape Verde
From the comments on some of these videos.. It appears you're in a odd transition. A percentage of your followers care nothing for Africa and its rich history, or its people. A percentage, don't find Black women attractive. A percentage, only patronize you to watch content that validates their shortcomings with woman that are independent. (Believing there's something wrong with it) How dare them have a backbone! A percentage only want content that shows you picking up, or interacting with women you're sleeping with. Which puts you in an odd place. These cats help finance your journey. Will they continue as you grow, and your content matures and becomes something of more substance? I personally like the direction you're headed, and the appreciation you're showing to those on the continent of Africa.
I wonder this same thing, but I may just take 80% of my female content to members only
That sounds like a resolution. A year or two from now it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.
@AustonHolleman that's a smart idea...
There is always a percentage of everything when u do content so this isn’t odd it’s normal. Africa videos are the reason I started watching and I love black/African woman and Im black American so the ones who will watch will watch nothing u can do to please everyone. Just do you brotha I’ll support
@@PrideandBeautyer, you want to see women? I mean, aren't you a woman? 🤔
Senegal is really beautiful 😍 much love from Kenya 🇰🇪
This is starting to look more like a geniune travel channel Auston. Im glad to see you incorporating more activities, history, culture. This will take you further then appealing to those thirsty viewers that lust over women constantly
Senegal is beautiful! Thanks for this.
Senegal is beautiful much love from Ghana 🇬🇭💞🤗
Wow, Senegal is beautiful. It was a great video !
Senegal is absolutely beautiful and I need to visit at some point in the future 😎
Loving your content you are getting better at this and you are so funny stay original hope you have the best time in Senegal. Gambia is just a boat ride away
Your comment about the advantage of taking the train is on point.
Dope video definitely going to try Senegal next, looks like a vibe
Cant wait for this one!
I wanna go to the part of Senegal 🇸🇳 Mark Weins visited that food was absolutely yummy looking
Food is yummy all over Dakar. Some of the best food I've ever had.
They are the creators of jollof
Their trains are much more modern than in the US.
That must be a joke
@@glennr.8551 Have you seen the trains in NY or DC? they Doodoo.
@@glennr.8551 most Amtrak trains are old af
@@glennr.8551😂😂😂😂 Ummm America is third world! I have lived all over the world. Take my word for it!
@@glennr.8551and it’s not a joke!this train is Alstom corodia ragiolis version!it’s one of the must modern train un the world!
I’m loving how you showed off Africa. It looks like you are having so much fun
Brother,
I am from Senegal. Please be careful for caring your purse around town. I would advice not to do it. Even the phone that you are using for your content might be snapped. But it depends on certain locations in town
Senegal seems to be prettier than Accra from the little I have seen. Nice train station. Oh dear, I will be honest with you, I thought Senegal was backwards with not good streets and dirt roads like I see in Uganda and in Kenya. I didn't even expect to see a train in Africa especially in Senegal with such a nice and clean train station. I have traveled quite a bit, but I personally have never visited the continent of Africa. Please don't stone me and thanks for sharing with us. I wish you would go to other countries and not only the ones where Americans are going. Anyway, stay safe.
He barely showed u guys anywhere around Accra or Ghana trust me. But Senegal is beautiful. 💯
He showed all Accra has. There are many other Accra videos, they are all the same. There's nothing in and about Accra, over-hyped and over-sold.
@@KK-if3un I was just thinking that cause Ghana is beautiful he barely went anywhere
senegal is sandy and east africa is red soil is that what u call dirty?
u must be a Ghanaian whose burning inside, Austin will still go back yo nairobi that his home.
Great video
Senegal looks beautiful 💜
Great video!!! One of the best videos you've done, that beach is nuts!!! Wow. The train was nice too.
Great video! ❤
Great video bro. I would caution telling people you’re by yourself or when you’re leaving. Just a safety precaution fam. Stay vigilant always. ✊🏾
BTW Senegal is freaking beautiful!!
Love your content
Big Up to all my Senegalese brothers and sisters, beautiful country and good people
Great content
Nice video. You're brave man.
Traffic in Dakar is crazy. One time it took us 4hrs from airport to the city due to accidents and rush hour. But the goats in the taxi cab trunks was worth it.
It's very very clean, spacious, good infrastructure, polite and helpful, humble, laid back Africans, the pink lake tour was wonderful, and my my favorite video to-date. The metro station and first class Senegalese train digs beat AMTRAK's in the USA. The drivers dont f...know the physical address because we dont have them mapped out by GOOGLE like in other parts of the world. If you're a demanding and acting WEALTHY American, those CRAFTY drivers would PRETEND not to KNOW where you want to go 😂😂😂. You're MATURING before our eyes young man!
He is. Africa tends to force maturity
The 4 wheeling looked fun.
Great content Mr. H. The Senegalese landscape is absolutely beautiful. But you need to try harder with the French. You seem to have given up. Pink lake could have easily been translated to Lac Rose.
Absolutely I was like wot da hell is saying to dem ppl 😂
I think I would love Senegal 🇸🇳
Very chill vibes
Mr. Auston "No Haggle" Holleman.
At 16:36 Cool ass video with the 4wheeler in the sand. It looks like I was in a video game.
It’s insane how they got the nerves to charge you $115 for the squad and the boat trip when I paid under $30 last time I went. Probably because I’m from Senegal and know their tricks, but anyway like you said, you did it for the content and out of love to help them fox in the continent god blesses you. ✊🏿
Damn that’s crazy
What I tell yall about the beaches in Senegal. So beautiful!!! Bro. We got out of our truck on the exactly spot on the beach that you did when you were on the beach. Messed up that Lake Rose was not pink when you went. I wish I could share my pictures. It was a lot my red when I went.
You are going to love Santa Maria on Sal Island in Cape Verde. Enjoy!!!
Your choice of music at the beach seemed like you slapped it together with whatever you could find, 20:11 lol 😂
Fun video!
Colobane 😂😂😂
The taxi person couldn’t understand the pronunciation. Pronounce it like Ko lo ban
I spotted that😂!
Great video! I enjoy this content a lot more! I’d there a reason why ppl don’t cook at that beach? Is it too far? Waves/currents too dangerous?
Outstanding job! Grow your brand around other topics young man. Stretch your imagination and surprise yourself what you can do.
Austin are you buying plane, train tickets in incognito mode in your browser? Also if you use a VPN depending on where u set it could bring the cost down. The cookies on your browser tells the websites to jack up the prices because they can see you constantly using them.
Damn I didn’t think of that
In Senegal go to the lion sanctuary! You can walk close to the lionesses and take pics with them
I have been inspire by the travel volg & love what you do king & it look so 😊 exciting, i am a CDL class A otr solo tractor trailer driver who trailer around the united states am also a independent musician artist ,& fashion designer & thinking about doing youtube but i will need to find out what content will be the best for me to do that i have wisdom in & enjoy alot , & i always want to vist the whole of africa because i do african music and that is my number one happyness😊😊😊
@19:33 That Beach is NICE!
Ever thought about a GoPro camera, think you can hook those anywhere on your body while you ride things
If u want an affordable ticket I can organize that for you, buying tickets in Africa is different from the states
Yoooh how do u get cheap tickets in the continent ??I would love some cheap tickets
Cape Verde's women are the closest to what you could get that look like Brazilian women in Africa...
If you don't behave, you think cape Verdan women won't drive him out. Learn to be respectful. Someone has already called him out about him coming to cape Verde to chase their women. Brazil threw him out.
@@teeteeme5752you sound like a pocket watching 🤡😒 nobody didn't chase a grown ass man nowhere them was the hating ass local male's in there feelings so he just left on his own😂🙄🤦🏼♂️
Senegal seems dope tbh!
I use to hang out at the pink lake as a kid. You pick up any Wolof yet?
Senegal is nice..love it...kenyans these are trains we needed😂 coz weuh!
Tulioshwa huku
Big ups to da big l'l homie Auston Holleman! Keep on keeping on ma brethren. 👍🏾✌🏾
covoverde is very close to senegal you just take a ferry.or if you take a bus from senegal to ghana i think is 150 usd or if take bus to gambia only 5 hours
the beach was beautiful.
Have you had any really good Jollof rice there. you should defintiely get some. It's supposed to be very good.
❤❤❤❤ karibu nyumbani ( 🇰🇪 kenya is your home) blessings from Seoul.
Love my French sis and bros from Senegal 🇸🇳 ❤ 💕 💓 💗 next trip after going back to (Nairobi)..
How the hell did you keep your hat on while driving that 4 wheeler? (Auston Vs Hat 😂😂😂)
He didn't, it fell off 😂
I came to realize in France that unlike other "romance" languages, spoken French and English don't align much. Literally, not a SINGLE person knew what the "Eiffel Tower" was, though it's their most famous landmark and how the name is advertised through out the world! When I learned it is called "tour Eiffel" in France (with the words switched around), I realized why the English pronunciation is not even verbally recognizable to an average French.
So "Pink Lake" is "Lac Rose" in French, again with the words switched and "rose" in place of "pink" for the color. They would have been there for eternity trying to figure what each other was saying lol
Somehow you need to get your drone back now more than ever
FIRST THINGS U SHOULD LEARN WHEN U REACH IN A COUNTRY IF U DONT SPEAK THE LANGUAGE IS to KNOW how TO SAY ( HOW MUCH FOR IT or HOW MUCH IT WILL COST) AND THE NUMBER that will not take u 10 min to learn it
Have you noticed you've started to say hunh/heh just like our African brothers and sisters 😂 when you're trying to figure something out? It's interesting how we may subtle adaptations to find common grounds. Salute
Caught my attention too😂
Austin, next time check with hotel staff INSIDE to make sure you're getting close to normal rates. Although in Senegal they're pretty straight forward though.
The women in Cabo Verde.. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Pink Lake that’s not pink. 😂. Just a friendly question. Do you Google the best season to visit some of these countries? Some countries aren’t popping all year long due to weather. 😊
I usually do the season research when i am travelling somewhere
Austin: take me to the train station
driver: nigga wtf is a train
Right😂
Auston do you have a GoPro camera
That dust is going to ruin that white hat..
This is why I love West Africa or Africa in general. Puts you into perspective and focus. I want to know if any black American heard anyone call Auston an akata? I also want to know if any of them made him feel un welcomed. Some of the bull I hear black Americans keep singing in America.
@@doma6676The African person projecting, why would this random person go straight to negativity, I'm guessing it's probably a Nigerian they have so much hatred for black Americans, but they always seem to watching or on black Americans platform it's weird, we call em the Pocket watching Tethers over here, why watch something you don't like🤔🤷🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
@@FBA-Reddawg2.0 complete nonesense, these things only exist in the the US, 99% of africans dont even know what that means
@@doma6676 we will soon know if Nigerians will use the word to welcome him. If you read my comment properly, I also included if anyone in Africa have made Auston feel un welcomed? I know Auston is in Senegal. Has anyone there made or said anything in their language to make him feel un welcomed.
@@doma6676relax, he is trying to negate the narrative in mostly America that Africans hate our Black brothers and sisters and feel more superior.
@@teeteeme5752i never heard that words before and am Senegalese
Man, come on man put what happened up between you and Marlo. We need to know lol 😂
Bro. No disrespect. That bag is a purse man. Get a backback, or briefcase, or dufflebag. Bro that there is a purse.
only thing i gotta point out g is that white hat you had on lol i know you regretted it after that day haha nice footage tho, yea next time i'd opt for something more simpler, makes you stick out and look super american to them lol keep doing ya thing
Senegal and the Gambia are close, so maybe go there before Cape Verde. Always barter the price, its part of the culture. Reach out to YT Our Journey Towards Eden, and Black Acres of The Gambia.
Aw Austin...false advertisement...😅
He's lucky the rest of the video is good 😂
The girl at the train station ticketing booth was pretty nice,she look very sweet.🚆
The clubs in dakar is LIT there is bunch of woman
Please show us the view of dakar city
Today it’s up
Write Dakar, diamniado if you really want to see what's going on in the city
algae bloom makes it pink
Ohhhh ok
what happen with him and marlo
Man, you should have negotiate about the 115 dollars. Things like that in Afrika you can because is a not private sector is locales.. Chez les locaux tu peux toujours négocier des choses comme ça pour 80 euro par exemple.
Good content anyway! Bravo
There First class look almost like an economy seat on Amtrak
1st class and Economy class are nearly the same on the train, you just have some advantages like a socket to charge your phone things like that and it's only a 1000 CFA Francs ($1.63) difference. It's not a long distance train, 45mins from Dakar to Diamniadio
Sorry, but those bike guys stole from you bro, 3 thousand max from the train station to the lake
I don’t think so
BEAUTIFUL AFRICAN 😊
Senegal is beautiful and way organized than Ghana for sure
Auston, brah!!! Your my guy, but what's up with that purse bro😂.
😂😂
But where is everyone looks quite
I thought people were unfairly ribbing him about this issue but today I saw, it really is a purse 😆
Bruh next time get in contact with a local family in the city of Dakar ! Everything could be 6* less expensive trust me , your ass got hustled like crazy !! I know what I mean I’m from there
Auston you are very mature and patient for your age
... la gare
RIP white hat
😂
Man why aren't you using google translator? it will save you a lot og hustle.
Man im so glad see. A young black american philanthropist like you .
French lesson for my young brother
You: Sah Vah
Them: Sah Vah
You: oo ay..... (name of place)
You: Mersee mah dam or mis yur
Hey Austin! The same train can take you the airport when you leave. Please don't spend no more 20000 Francs on a cab ride. For God's sake always bargain 🤣 From a brother who lived in beautiful Dakar
Damn I’m glad you said that
@@AustonHolleman no, work to extend the train line to the airport is in progress.
they should be completed at the end of the year.
Unfortunately, you won't be able to take the train to the airport yet.
ps: if you want to meet women, I advise you to go to Almadies (it's the chic district of Dakar, more chic than the plateau), there are many places to have a drink and many nightclubs. night and lots of pretty women.
You risk being surprised by this other aspect of Senegal.
That’s where I’m at. I’m not seeing too many
Name some places I should go to
@@AustonHolleman have a drink : jet cafe beach, cosmo beach club, surfer paradise, white dream, Le carré, radison blue, sharky’s
Party : vogue, barramundi, club 154, black pearl, le chic nightclub
115 usd for the quad ride, Bro you got scammed da hell out of you it’s 30-40 dollars negotiable 😂😂😂
Brother
It’s better to know what’s lake in French and what’s pink in French. But if you say it in English, some of my people didn’t learn any English
I didn't know they spoke português there
Nigeria economy is very bad now
What type of dumb statement is that? Whats your goal, unintelligent troll?
Stop saying rubbish boy. Bad in what way can you explain
say hi to Akon
It's expensive because they don't want us to be there
😆 victim mentality 😊
Don't go anywhere with that victim mentality, stay in your parents basement
@@safilynn1563 Lol. I own property in Saly and Ndulumajedembe...I was merely making a point
@@soumi1984 Pffft lol.... I own property in Saly and Ndulumajedembe...I was merely making a point
thats why I gave the french lesson
This is only Dakar the capital. Forget about the rest of the country ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳
Trains using electric wooow yet nigeria is using generators all over da place for its people something is wrong in some peoples heads walahi
Have you seen the new trains in Lagos? I think it was commissioned a few days ago (on the 4th of September) The blue Line (an ELECTRIC mass rail line ) and other lines are coming up soon.
Videos are online if you care to take a look 😊
Let them keep saying trash. Who on his right senses will compare Abuja/Lagos to boring and vibeless Dakar
@@dimegi1558boring and vibless Dakar??? 😂 I've been in nigeria for 9 years and I can confidently tell you Abuja and Lagos ain't got shit on Dakar, Abidjan, Nairobi, Daresalam adis Ababa except your big mouth. That's how y'all almost stole their jollof with your big mouth
