Have you ever heard of Somaliland?! I am absolutely SHOCKED by how amazing this place is. I never expected this!!!
Since 1991, my birth year, Somaliland has been a self-declared region of Somalia and has been seeking international independence since then (which it truly deserves to get). They have their own government, currency, flag, military, and I even had to get a separate Somaliland visa to get inside.
Somaliland strikes a drastic contrast with its neighbor as a land of peace, democratic stability and safety.
I am not just saying this to sound cool, or for the video's sake, but SOMALILAND IS THE SAFEST I'VE FELT OVER THE LAST 2 MONTHS IN AFRICA. By a long shot. I can walk the streets freely at night without worrying about a thing. I have not felt pressure, once, from people trying to scam me. Everyone is so friendly, honest, and welcoming. It's also very cheap, which is a breathe of fresh air for me.
This video accurately displays my thoughts and first impressions of Somaliland -- I can't wait to explore more around this country all week long!
Thank you to my friends at Damal Hotel in Hargeisa for the incredible hospitality!

Geopolitics and neocolonialism is why. Because it has managed to maintain peace without the intervention of the west. The UN/West thrives on such nations collapse for the sake of control and manipulation. It’s truly sad what they continue to do in the Middle East and Africa.

Even when Somalia was together people in the current Somaliland regions needs were not met.

[@abdiali2761]

It’s very sad how we as Somali think. We pick our clan over tribe and tribe over the country. This is the reason we as Somali never move forward. We speak the same language, we have the same religion and culture. If we keep thinking like this it better off neighboring countries to split Somalia and take a share for themselves. I still don’t understand the real reason for Somaliland wanting to be independent. We are all from the same Family. As brothers and sisters, we work on our problems not just leave when things a difficult. We are not our parents so we can think for ourselves.

Welcome to Africa's best kept secret SOMALILANAD, I appreciate your video and the content of your video 👊👊👊

[@fkaroble]

Thank you Drew for ignoring the unwarranted travel warnings. My fellow country men and women are delighted that you have witnessed the unnecessary stigma that has been stipulated on this majestic land, people and nation. Your videos will become a catalyst for more avid travelers to explore and enjoy all that this unrecognized yet thriving country has to offer. Thank you.

@@inaxaaji1935 first off all that’s completely 1988 snm was not weak Ethiopia and Kenya were funding them but do to Somalia being more powerful cause siad barre was the president if I was the president Somalia would not be weak and there’s would be no Shabaab and I would invade and take control of Somaliland because 90% of landers are dhuldhahte and other clans that want to stay with Somalia it’s only the butthurt 10% isaaq clan 😂

As a future somali professor am very proud for being somalilander. Thanks Mr.Drew it's such a great pleasure to hear that you have seen our peace and prosperity despite Somalia wich is another country.

[@abdiali2761]

It’s very sad how we as Somali think. We pick our clan over tribe and tribe over the country. This is the reason we as Somali never move forward. We speak the same language, we have the same religion and culture. If we keep thinking like this it better off neighboring countries to split Somalia and take a share for themselves. I still don’t understand the real reason for Somaliland wanting to be independent. We are all from the same Family. As brothers and sisters, we work on our problems not just leave when things a difficult. We are not our parents so we can think for ourselves. Have you heard the saying “A bundle of sticks is not easily broken.” In Sha Allah, Long Live Somalia!!!!!!

Thnk you so much Brother plz plz came back again beautiful statement It is a very beautiful expression I hope you come back to us again You are a good person and really true the reality he saw When most people think of the Somalis, they associate it with the only areas national media cover, pirates, extremist terrorism, famine and war. A self declared independent state of this country named Somaliland seemed to be different from the rest, the people were happy, it was safe to travel too and they seek peace following the 1988 Somali war. Somaliland is a self declared independent state, that has been fighting for recognition since the 1960’s. Since then, Somaliland has managed to instate its own visa’s, currency, police force and even access to reliable internet. thnk you so much brother #Drew_Binsky

I've been to Hargeisa Somaliland 3 times. It's very peaceful. Unlike southern Somalia. People are generous, educated & very hospitable. We have mansions there. The houses are beautiful. Also there are many Yemenis, Syrians, Egyptians, Ethiopians. There are Europeans I've seen there too. So there's nothing to worry about.

Warsame Jibriil Yuusuf 😂 obviously I know. I'm dhulbahante. My mum is from Hargeisa. Somaliland is a part of Somalia. That's why I said southern Somalia when I was reffering to the capital not being that peaceful. Though its getting better. Somaliland is a region in Somalia. I was born in the capital. Hopefully one I could go visit.
