Been going to The Gambia for about 5 years now, and it's a really lovely place. It always makes me smile to see others' experiences and how they come to love this small country. One thing that struck me on my last trip though, is how hard these people have been hit by the decline in tourism due to Covid and the rise of inflation. Rice, oil and fuel are double what they used to be and although it's still the smiling coast of Africa, that smile sometimes feels heavy now. God I feel like a mangrove growing new roots there and it saddens me sometimes but the Gambians themselves also fill me with hope for a better future to come. Bless this lovely nation. Anyone reading this who hasn't been there, I definitely recommend going there as it's a great introduction to this magnificent continent.

Thanks for sharing you experience! It is so sad what the world is currently going through. It seems no country is immune from the effects. You'd have hoped there would be some stability after COVID as we all needed it. Alas... I also think about how much of an impact the current cost of living crisis will have for people travelling overseas and whether it will hinder tourism's bounce-back after COVID. The Gambia is such an incredible country, made special by it's amazing people.

I first came to The Gambia 3 years ago. I relocated here 14 months ago from the US. If your thinking about traveling here make plans. You will enjoy the people and culture. When I first came I had some safety concerns. By the next day, I was convinced that all my fears were unwarranted. If you're in The Gambia contact me. There are many great beach bar and other establishments I wasn't aware of my first visit. I will gladly point you in the right direction. Ella great video

I've always loved out-of-the-way destinations. Tonight I've been all over The Gambia and Senegal via Google Maps. A couple of hours later I checked for KZbin vids. Great job with the footage and commentary. How lucky you are to be able to travel there for under £200. Unfortunately I'm in Australia and The Gambia is about as far as you can get from my country. As a result, it's extremely expensive - the cheapest flight being around $4,000 . It's still nice to experience it vicariously through videos such as yours!

They need to come in numbers to the u s and invest in the stock market, take the money back to their homeland and rebuild from all their true resources that was taken from them such as gold, diamonds, etc. look into Africas true history, they where once the richest people on the face of the Earth, the very first people to build great kingdoms older than all kingdoms across the globe filled with gold, diamonds and scrolls but then just like the European Nations fort against each other so did the African nations, there kings became to greedy and was fooled by the Europeans. The leaders in such poor countries are funded money to keep filthy things like prostitution legal when they should be using that money to build greater schools, colleges, libraries, international banks, medical centers and investment firms which teach how to invest in cryptocurrency world wide and help build up more self made businesses. Most of these men and women who sell themselves don't enjoy what their doing their just looking for a way out of poverty but poverty is just a mind set and the ones preying on them knows that's true but could just care less. The rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer because the rich has it set up like that, place one group in a certain area and fix it up less while the others in the other area get treated a lot better. Only God can free these people from poverty, Jesus has already came back and he's in the mind of the poor, greater is he in us. >>>>>> Leviticus 19:29 kjv “Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.” King James Version (KJV) Job 9:24 24The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he? King James Bible Exodus 15:3 3The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. King James Bible Ecclesiastes 3:8 8A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

The eco lodge looks awesome! It really does look beautiful in that morning light. I love that they have a compostable toilet and all the other eco friendly touches. This looks like such a fascinating country. Yes, very conflicting feelings about expansion. Very interesting too that flights in and out all take place after dark to avoid the vultures. Well, you are officially the first person I follow to go to The Gambia! So thank you for introducing me to it! 😊

I don't think I've ever heard of this African country before. This looks like a once in a lifetime journey; we'll be tuned for more. It's great to see they provided you with a reusable water bottle. About how much did an hour's taxi ride cost? April enjoyed your voice-over...how long did it take you to write it, she wonders?

@EllaMcKendrick 5 жыл бұрын
It was a wonderful country to visit! I'm glad I could add it to your map. It's a country everyone should know about as it's so interesting, beautiful and full of friendly people. The taxi ride cost 1000 dalasis which equates to £15 or $20. It is possible to get it cheaper if you use the local bush taxis. It would then cost more like £3. I'm glad April enjoyed my voiceover! I wrote it in bits. Overall I'd say no more than half an hour. When I watched my footage back, the words would just come to me. Thanks for watching! :)

Cool to check out parts of a country I rarely think of. What motivated you to check out Gambia? The maps were useful to know the exact spot of the continent. And 106F heat is not fun to work in. But you’re right they do seem motivated to keep moving. Your hotel, was that an average place or a more higher up stay for the area?

I looked on Skyscanner for anywhere with a direct flight and was under £200 return. I got so excited when I saw a marker on the African continent as I LOVE Africa. It seemed like the perfect trip. Hotels in The Gambia are around the £60 mark for a night. I'm sure you could find cheaper accommodation if you really looked.

They need to come in numbers to the u s and invest in the stock market, take the money back to their homeland and rebuild from all their true resources that was taken from them such as gold, diamonds, etc. look into Africas true history, they where once the richest people on the face of the Earth, the very first people to build great kingdoms older than all kingdoms across the globe filled with gold, diamonds and scrolls but then just like the European Nations fort against each other so did the African nations, there kings became to greedy and was fooled by the Europeans. The leaders in such poor countries are funded money to keep filthy things like prostitution legal when they should be using that money to build greater schools, colleges, libraries, international banks, medical centers and investment firms which teach how to invest in cryptocurrency world wide and help build up more self made businesses. Most of these men and women who sell themselves don't enjoy what their doing their just looking for a way out of poverty but poverty is just a mind set and the ones preying on them knows that's true but could just care less. The rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer because the rich has it set up like that, place one group in a certain area and fix it up less while the others in the other area get treated a lot better. Only God can free these people from poverty, Jesus has already came back and he's in the mind of the poor, greater is he in us. >>>>>> Leviticus 19:29 kjv “Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.” King James Version (KJV) Job 9:24 24The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he? King James Bible Exodus 15:3 3The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. King James Bible Ecclesiastes 3:8 8A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. King James Bible 1 John 2:15-16 King James Version (KJV) 15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. ECCLESIASTICUS 12:6 KJV "For the most High hateth sinners, and will repay vengeance unto the ungodly, and keepeth them against..."
