My dad's family is from Sal, I have always wanted to visit and learn more about my culture. Can't wait until I can!

[@WoutoftheWorld]

Ah yes you really should! Have you seen the video about Boavista as well? Cape Verde was truly a pleasant surprise for us travellers. Especially when you have roots there you’ll love it! We are actually going back to Africa in the next 10 videos or so, as well. Hope you stay tuned and for sure go there some day!

Just found your channel and really like your videos!!! As said on previous video, just been in Sal last week and was amazing! However, I can notice when you went, was a bit less wind! Anyway, the experience was fantastic! :)

[@WoutoftheWorld]

Hi Jim! Thanks for the support and nice comment. The wind can be strong indeed, some places more than others. Have you visited other islands as well in CV? We are thinking about going back soon! 😁👍🏻

[@JAMESFERNANDEZ]

@@WoutoftheWorld sorry, I just got a notification of your reply now! 🙈🤪 no, only been in Sal! The idea was to go to BoaVista too but, probably because it winter time, ferry connection between islands was very poor. I’ll come back soon to Cabo Verde that’s for sure, would love to go to Mindelo too in São Vicente island. Cesária Évora was from there and that’s where you can find more bohemian and culture of the country. Keep doing great on your channel! ✌️

[@justme-zg2lc]

Going sal this November 😊

[@nenjihelen]

This video is amazing, thank you for sharing! Hoping to visit Sal next year! What time of year did you visit Sal? And is there a time of year that is best to visit?

[@WoutoftheWorld]

Hi! Thanks. Pretty much every season is good, but if you need wind for any kind of surfing: from christmas til early summer. The summer and after is hotter with less wind.

Thanks Prejtej! Normally this should only happen when you are near to the airports. Check if you can find some troubleshooting online? Have you seen other videos on our channel?

This is one of the best video I have seen on you tube so far about this island : SAL ….thank you so much ! is reflecting very well the overall impression , you forgot to show those “friendly “ dogs walking here and there asking waiting some food … … they could be counted as part of the human population somehow … …😊😊

[@carolinehoogstrate4917]

I love Sal so so much❤ and the pure people and the music...please beam me back to Sal

[@WoutoftheWorld]

Sal really surprised us. Because some other islands are greener and have more mountains, people tend to say Sal is a bit boring. Actually, the nature is pretty unique and on top of that the atmosphere makes up for the lack of green. Such a great vibe 😁 ben je Nederlands trouwens? Ik lees nu je naam 😂 We hebben de video’s in twee talen. Groetjes!

[@portuguesesongsbyanenglish2920]

In Sal is it all safe? Do I need to go all inclusive and stay in a hotel or is it cheaper to go to local restaurants etc. is it safe to walk streets at night for example?

[@WoutoftheWorld]

It is so safe! We walked around with our small boy as you can see. I really didn’t like to go for all inclusive here, as the streets and the restaurants are so nice and friendly. We did not experience any unsafety and as you will see in the other episode about Boavista we also visited the slums there. 🙏🏻❤️

Cape Verde has some of the most beautiful music a country has ever produced, it's a pity that you didnt notice it and/or chose to have generic light music as background. Otherwise good video 👍

[@WoutoftheWorld]

Hi Subtle Moments, we know about Cape Verde music of course. However, you cannot use music without getting copyright issues. There is no Cape Verde music available for free use, like.. at all. So yes of course we did notice (I live in Rotterdam, a city with lots of people from Cape Verde) and no we didn’t chose not to use any.. it’s just how the world is. 😂

[@jw-xo5sw]

I was on holiday in Sal for 3 weeks last year. I must honestly say that it was a bit disappointing. It is a very impoverished and dirty islandwith a lot of ruins. (except for the resort part in Santa Maria). It's a shame that hardly any travel vlogs shows about this reality . The Cape Verdeans are very nice people, but everyone there sees you as a walking wallet. You cannot take a step on the beach, walk through Santa Maria in the evening or when visiting Shark Bay for example, or you will be constantly bothered by pushy street vendors. I save hard all year round to be able to go on holiday and I want to have moments of peace. No more Sal for us and I heard from many fellow travelers that they also found it very disappointing. I am sure that the number of returning travelers to Sal is practically zero. We normally always go on holidays to the Caribbean (Curacao and Bonaire) and will continue to do so from now on. pros Sal: very nice people Shark Bay pronto beach street dogs are very lovely negative: not the best food and yes we tried a lot of restaurants pushy street vendors many ruins and other signs of poverty little to do beach looks more beautiful on the vlogs than in reality almost no opportunities for snorkeling,the current is to strong and the view is bad

[@WoutoftheWorld]

Hi JW! I can imagine your opinion about Sal, however I am not that negative about Cape Verde. Having been to so many countries, I understand that there is a big difference between rich tourism countries and plain third world countries. We love to travel Africa, India or South America too, but you should never expect it to be only suited for tourism. The countries are raw and real. For me that’s actually one of the most beautiful things to see when we are traveling. I think Sal might not be suited for the tourism that Bonaire and Curacao have, that’s true. Although I used to live on Curacao and can tell you that most of Curacao will be like Sal too, but you just don’t go there. Tourism is more seperated from the harsh reality of poverty. I do understand your view, but for us the world is always a positive place. The video is quite neutral actually, but you don’t go out and film garbage or poverty in Africa.. you know that it’s there, but the video is not about that 😅 cheers and love from the family!
