My man Gummo is in all your videos. I had the pleasure to meet him in Tanzania. He’s a great guy..

I'm agree with you 💯

[@LucyLightHernandez]

Wow a real person. Tell your family this _ I am indigenous, so I find the way here foreign, but my families were Indio of America. The way here is to be too special and too good, and not have to share, or be nice to anyone. People here try to be the greatest mean, and rude, and too good while they are even family, or a full stranger. Yes, a few will have manners, or not be gauche and boring,but when they behave this way towards me, I find if I had a trash can, I could put them inside it is better. I see you have very kind, and well mannered people. Hello, may blessings to you, and may the sunshine for your lives.

As a person with a septum piercing (done at home) I’m kinda excited to watch Mike get his very own as a right of passage

[@jeff-f7g]

Hi, after you gave yourself a septum nose pierce, Can I ask you what do you put in your nose around the hole inside so it does not get infected and to heel up? Thank you

[@soulbubbledreams]

⁠​⁠@@jeff-f7g if i understood your question correctly you simply use disinfectant. You want to clean the area around it two times a day with a cotton swab and then let it be. It should heal up in two weeks time.

[@RotatingLocomotive]

Just salted water. A lot. It prevents cheloids. Avoid any type of alcol and cortisone

[@jeff-f7g]

@@RotatingLocomotive Thank you, What does the cortisone do if used?

[@RotatingLocomotive]

@@jeff-f7g Since alcol and cortisone are vasodilators, they will increase the amount of blood in the area and enlarge even more the cheloid or create new ones. Water and salt instead dry the wound and disinfects. Maybe add lemon or an alcol-free disinfectant

[@spinj3307]

I am originally from Binga myself, I've been watching your videos ever since you documented the fascinating Hadzabe tribe of Tanzania. I never imagined that one day you would eventually make a trip to Zimbabwe, let alone Binga. "Mwapona byeni" is a formal way of greeting someone in Tonga when meeting them for the first time or after a long time, just like "Makadi" in Shona or "Salibonani" in Ndebele. Good job bro!

[@Claysimen]

In no world i would upset granny.. especially because i would be to humbled and gratefull to be welcomed by such a beautifull tribe unconditionally...❤

[@ikawba00]

I'd not take on the offer, except to drink one little sip. I'd test how my body handles than to to drink it all like asked. It would suck to be uncomfortable or sick whilst exploring other cultural practices because I wasn't careful when trying a drink or food.

[@KenMastersVideos]

The reason this is the best travel youtuber is because he TRULY TRULY embraces the cultures with an open mind and sees it from their point of view and not judge them from a foreigners point of view. Too many of the other travel vloggers go to 3rd world countries with a closed mind and just bash the cultures.

[@raiNofchAosFPS]

My Father is from Zimbabwe and grew up there. he left for South Africa and ive been lucky enough to vist this beautiful country a few times, its the untouch gem of Africa! so much beauty and culture! I love Zim! thankful my Uncle still stays there so we can visit when we please!

I stayed in Zimbabwe in 1975 when it was still Rhodesia. There was war and it was terrifying (I was 7 yr old). But I met amazing people, both black and white, and I remember the stunning beauty that made my young imagination soar. It was amazing. The problems since have broken my heart again and again, I'm sad for all sides, the people are resilient to endure what they have endured and still be as happy as they are on your video.

Man my eyes tested up sooo much when I got mine . I’ve had septum , nipples , snake bites , and the side of my nose done . Septum is easily the most painful facial piercing

[@Allyourbase1990]

@@finncinjaere6293it’s not that bad if they get it first try , but compared to the side of your nose it’s worse . It is quick tho . They had mine done in 30 seconds

[@blackhagalaz]

@@finncinjaere6293 I want a septum too and did my research for a while now. Aparently its extremely painfull if you hit the cartilage while piercing, and the healing can take way longer. But there is a sweet spot in the Nose where there is just a bit of skin between cartilage and bone. A professional piercer knows how to find this spot, so its way less painfull and has a better chance of healing (although it can take up to 6 months regardless). I also learned that while piercing the eyes almost always water. I have gotten cheap mall piercings in my ears before, but i really think for a septum one should spend the money at a professional piercing place. Where I live a piercer will take up to 60-75 Euros for a septum piercing. But i think this is moeny well spent

they have trouble piercing your nose because of your nose's structure, a lot of african noses have little to no cartilage since they dont need to warm the air as they are breathing in (people from colder parts of the world have smaller nostrils to regulate the temperature) I love ur channel, big thanks and well wishes to you and all the incredible people u meet ❣

Hi

[@NetPassMe19]

For anyone wondering, he got something called a septum piercing. I got mine done professionally with a needle, not a sharp thorn. Pain is subjective, but mine was less painful than a nostril piercing and it was pretty quick, lasting less than 2 minutes for the entire process. His probably hurt way more because it took longer for the thorn to pierce his septum.
