    If you decide to stream that one set of cities, would you please upload it here on TH-cam afterwards as well? I almost never catch the streams and really love this series so I'd be happy to watch it on here.

    After you zoomed into that stadium that read "BSC" and the South-American features of the city, it was immediately clear to me as a football lover that the city was Guayaquil. :D

    as soon as I saw paramaribo come up I knew you would be baffled by it. such a weird city. the indonesia resemblance kind of makes sense as both were dutch colonies I guess?

    18:45 Once you panned over to the much more well-known city, I recognised it for the river shape and bridge spam. Then the airport island and China resemblance made a lot of sense too lol 🤔

    All those weird rectangular things in Zhuhai are aquaculture ponds! The white dots in them seem to be aerators, which both create a steady flow of oxygen into the water and circulate it.

    I also had the same trouble with Guayaquil! 😅 Like you, my mind immediately went to east of the Andes and I discounted anything that was Pacific.

    The airport in Seoul, if you zoom in, you not only see all the distinctive blue jets from Korean Air, you even see Korean Air written on some of them. The Airport in Sanaa has bombed out wrecks on the apron revealing it's a place that has recent or current war going on. Guayaquil has ports on the SW side where you can see huge bulk carriers and huge container ships so it has to be costal.

    When you said “huge airport on an island” early on I really thought you’d figure it out! Such an iconic airport😅

    "BSC, something soccer club?" Did you forget only Americans call it soccer, basically everyone else call it football, so it would be "FC" instead. :D But excellent video again.

    I wait for these to come out. Would it be possible for you to name the city and then the country? I have kids watching with me and now that they are more difficult cities, sometimes I don't know the country right away and you have moved on. LoL
