Such true words are the start. I love your reflections on people you meet. I have had some wonderful trps though southern Africa and 99.999999% of people I meet (and I make it a point to stop off at village stops to buy snacks) are the most wonderful people you could meet. The only people that haven't, have been people in uniform, but you get that everywhere. Love your travel videos and honest thoughts you present as you drive around.

But recently I’ve moved back to Zimbabwe to live life and enjoy what she has to offer. I have always wanted to explore more of zim and this series just shows an insight as to what Zim can offer. Hope to catch you around along the way. Best wishes and safe travels Dozer

@@OverlandingwithBruce Comments and likes help the algoritm. A lot of youtubers find people and students that work with video, often in asia to edit the videos and know hot to make them popular on youtube - often for their CV. You should get a sponsor, perhaps a travle agency that do 4x4 in southern africa. I would love if you made a video or podcast about: How to plan your own uniqe 4x4 in southern part of Africa. with subjects of buying car/bike or renting, dangers and safty, roads and daily travel distances, fuel, water, equipment. places to stay, needs for prebooking. Camping scares a lot of people that dont know, and even roof tent camping. I plan on a month long biketrip, but many dont understand that ex Zim is one of the safest places to travle, people are so nice! People often go on road trips to the US, and then dumb expensive safries packed with tourist. Go in 4x4 to Zim, Bot, Nam, Malawi etc.! you know the youtuber "itchy boots" she motorbiked the area, and have a hugely popular youtube channel!

@@mnp3713 I am not going to deceive people or be dishonest by hiring students and paying for likes, subscribers and comments. I am aware some do this and if you look at their channels it's blatantly obvious. I am doing this for fun and hopefully I will inspire others to do similar things. I have already made many good friends through KZbin and hopefully made a difference to a lot of people, so I am already very happy with the results. Sponsors are always welcome but that is not my aim and if I do get sponsors usually 100% goes to chasing smiles or given away in lucky draws like what we did in Harare in October last year. So I guess I could say that the aim of my channel is to inspire and make a difference and hopefully teach others that it is possibly no matter what the budget is.

@ncubesays

Good question. The respect accorded to the Matobo Hills lies in the fact that local Kalanga people believe that spirits reside in caves, hills, woodlands, hollow trees, and many secluded environments. Cecil Rhodes is buried on the summit of Malindidzimu which loosely translates to "hill of the spirits." My family's homestead is in the shadow of Njelele Shrine, where pilgrims still visit every year to ask for the rains. They are accompanied by the shrine's custodian who has the power and purity to speak to uMlimu (God) through our ancestors and there's plenty of traditional beer to go around. This hill is so sacred that it is taboo to point your fingers at it. Spiritual practice here has gone on for millennia and this interaction between the religion, the people and the landscape manifested in the rock art which is everywhere here. There are over 3,000 documented caves of historical significance in these hills. In fact, a 40,000 year old skeleton was found in the cave Bruce visited. Also, some impressive archaeological finds from the area are on display at the Natural History Museum in Bulawayo. It's hard to put it all in words. There's so much history and an air of grandeur in the hills which has to be felt rather than described.

I like your channel because you are driving my dream car. Anyway, I measured my Discovery 4 tyres (19' rims). I get just short of 12 cm as well (responding to an old video of yours) but my tyres are Hankook Dynapros. I love your car...I can't afford it but I love it. Question, with all those things on your roof, what is your average fuel consumption now? You said 9.7l/100km in the other video but your roof was empty

Thanks so much mate. D4’s are also awesome! One of the best vehicles I have owned for sure. If yours measure 12cms that’s not standard but that’s a good thing. Enjoy your vehicle it is one of the best. Thank you for watching and commenting even if only just for the Defender. :)

I agree and it deserves another visit. There was also not enough of Motopos either. I was only there for two nights and one day unfortunately so definitely will be going back as there is so much more I want to explore. Same old problem, not enough time and too much to explore Thank you for your comment and watching

The country is beautiful but the citizens do not enjoy its beauty because of poverty brought by zanu. Scenery can be beautiful but its people can also be oppressed. In Russia and Cuba there are beautiful places where only the rich are allowed. Talk of the beauty of the heart

Its the same in every country. There are those than can and those that can't. Unfortunately the ratio between the two is the problem in Zimbabwe, so how do we help to fix that? Im doing my small part to encourage people like me to visit Zim by showing what it is really like. What are you doing? If we all make a small positive impact it will make a difference. So lets try keep this positive and try make a positive impact no matter how small it is. There is no alternative.

There is much debate about those topics and I am not expert so I wouldn’t like to make any assumptions and possibly insult anyone. There is a ton of information on Google.
