  • In this episode, I am riding towards the border of Sierra Leone and Liberia. I need to look again for a mechanic that can work on my motorcycle, so I decided to go to the capital of Liberia: Monrovia. On the way to Monrovia, the problems however, stack up and my motorcycle doesn't want to start anymore...

    I'm from West Africa, precisely from Guinea-Bissau and I live here in Bissau, after having seen your video that you made in our country in Bissau, I decided to take my time and watch all your videos from this season 7 Africa, but my conclusion with your good interaction with people from all the countries you've been to, comes from your good way of being, your are friendly and respectful, keep it up and everything will be fine. Dear visitors of this channel, I assure you that West Africa has a very generous and kind people, maybe we are poor, but kind.

      I think and really do hope she understands the magnitude of her work. She does a lot of good, surely she sees that.
      Here's a quote I found online referring to Dutch people, "They do not draw attention to themselves and do not value the accouterments of success highly prized by other western societies.
      They dislike displays of wealth, as they run counter to their egalitarian beliefs.
      They do not boast about their accomplishments or their material possessions."

I have ridden most of my life and am as close to three quarters of a century in age as you can get without being there. Recently I watched the ABR 2023 videos. You were amazing! The way you conduct yourself is a talent many of us could learn from. The world is always looking for someone they can look up to as an example and you have fulfilled this many times over. You are not only a skilled rider, but a very classy lady. I wish you the very best and look forward to every adventure you share with your Internet family. May God continue to watch over you and bless you!

    Lisa & I feel so blessed to come across your channel. We are so proud of you and the interaction you have with the people you meet. Once in Luzon PI my buddy and I got lost with the Jeep in new a people’s army territory. We ran across a older man carrying wood stacked really tall on his back. He said is was dangerous there and we should go to his village. We gave him a ride home many miles away. The whole village told us to stay so we did and slept in a grass hut but kept hearing people moving around outside. The next morning we woke to find the whole village cooking some pigs for a party for us bringing their elder home. These people had very little yet gave us so much. As we left in the morning after we all ate they all ran after us. John and I went to a market to buy them 5 new pigs and supplies and again went to the village to give all and more back to them. To see their smiles and feel their gratitude make us all happy. Everyplace we went around the world the poorest people were the best, the kindness, the things they taught us and how happy and proud they were. Best days of my life. 👍 keep up the good work.

    What I Love about these vlogs, is that they show a different side of Africa, and other lands that have people of color. I haven't seen most of the 600 plus episodes but she wasn't abused by the locals anywhere she visted. She was more of a curiosity than anything! No local tried to put her in pot and cook her, or tried to run off with her. People tend to be the same whereever you go. Diffrent customs, languages, and foods, but all just people trying to get by day, by day. I am glad she takes these trips, it shows that the world is not so scary, and evil after all. This is the same message I have had for my friends and family for sometime now in my far less exciting, and vastly more comfortable travels.

Except that most of the young men she interacted with do not have the opportunity to come across such. However, you need to change your mentality about African countries. The West hid a lot of technology from us and China made so much available than you think.
