Thanks for posting this! I love watching Kiribati videos...they help keep me connected to my daughter who lives there and sees those sights every day.

Hello, thank you for watching my videos!! 👍👍👍

[@kathyitaea]

Thank you for sharing, it's hot, dusty,etc but riding on those buses was one of my favorite things to do growing up. I would say, it was not that hot and dusty during my years riding or maybe I'm wrong. thanks again for sharing- now I miss home

Hi Vic. Another very interesting video now about Kiribati. I had already enjoyed your video about Pago Pago. What you show in this video about Kiribat and comment impress a lot. What will be the future of these populations with constant rise in the level of the oceans Thank you again for your work.

[@VicStefanu]

Hello my friend, thank you for these comments.. These islands are fast disappearing, I will be back early in 2020!

Although it's written Kiribati it's pronounced Kiri-bas. Kiribati has 33 islands not 16. Thank you for sharing your adventurous but dusty and scorching hot bus ride. I have one question though... Did your head hit the headliner when the bus drove over an unmarked speed bump?

[@VicStefanu]

Teri T Hi, I hit my head more than once and at the end of my visit, my spine could take no more of these rides.. Hello, thank you for your comments and for watching my videos!!

It's actually 32 atolls and coral reefs, and one raised Island. Thank you for showing this. I want to go there one day.

[@VicStefanu]

Hello and thank you for viewing my videos!!

[@tiebaneteraawete381]

Yes Tarawa is changed. No more rough road. Come and see with your own eye

[@VicStefanu]

I am coming back soon, thank you for telling me!!

[@tabomaotabane6058]

Come and visit again Kiribati and you will see the difference... I still love Kiribati and can fight for it🗡️🗡️🗡️

[@VicStefanu]

Hello my friend, thank you for your comments. I am travelling across the Pacific once again and I may come to beautiful Kiribati again!

Lovely video of the van ride from your hotel towards the capital island of Bairiki in Kirbati. I can well imagine how hot and uncomfortable it must have been riding in the hot van on such a bumpy and dusty road. The condition of the road resembles the roads in much of the Canadian Province of Quebec and Eastern Ontario, and the dusty part would come when driving through a construction zone in the summer time. I am assuming that these vans have a very poor suspension which would account for you continually bumping your head on the ceiling of the van while it is driving. Since I know that these vans are not air conditioned, you must have felt that you were driving under the hot sun in temperatures ranging close to 100 degrees F with100% humidity. You now need a vacation in air conditioned comfort from this trip.

Hi Vic, Kiribati is pronounced "Kiribas", likeBetio is pronounced "Beso". In such a minibus it is possible to put 21 peoples, self experienced in 1995.

[@VicStefanu]

Thank you!! 😊😊😊I learner how to correctly pronounce the name after I have taped all the intros to the videos... lol...

[@JarekArabella]

Love it!

[@VicStefanu]

Thanks for watching! 👍👍👍

[@ioannabeia8874]

Now Kiribati road is perfectly done by the MACDOW . If you visit it again, you will not get bump and dusty riding on the road. You can feel the wind breeze from the ocean.

[@VicStefanu]

Thank you for the update, I will be coming up summer of 2020..

I'm from Kiribati and I am proud to be one. Again nice video!!! Cheers!!!!

[@VicStefanu]

+tooma bansy How interesting, I was in Tarawa from July 13th through the 20th last year, did we meet at all? I attended most of the celebrations and by the time I left I was well known because I always walked around with my camera!! I loved Kiribati and hope to be back one day soon..

[@toomabansy6008]

Vic Stefanu - World Travels and Adventures Thank you Vic, but what month ?

[@VicStefanu]

+Cta2006 I was there around June but remember, the countries close to the equator (or, on the equator) do not have seasons and it is always hot (this is the case for Kiribati as well)..
