@ I didn’t speak Portuguese but I speak Spanish so it wasn’t too difficult to understand, the first few months I didn’t have a car so taxis where my best friend hahaha and I also didn’t know much about Angola since it’s not a very touristy country it was hard to find information so I didn’t know what places to visit or where to stay, I also had trouble with some locals specially men trying to grab me and being catcalled in the street

@ hey man, I’ve traveled a lot in Latin America and I’d love to experience Africa, especially countries like Angola and Mozambique. If you read anything on the internet it’s all the usual scaremongering stuff about Africa, that it’s super dangerous and bla bla… do you think for a white guy from England I’d get around there with no problem? I’d stick out of course 😅 but I always had a great time with Afro Latino people so I don’t see why there’d be any difference.

Angolan here yes, Angola is a country with a lot of natural beauty, fantastic, beaches, desserts, forest, etc. Unfortunately the government we have at the moment is monumentally incompetent and most of the potential of the country is completely untaped. You will still have a great time at the beach or exploring night life, but unfortunately tourism facilities, especially outside the capital, leave a lot to be desired.

There are a couple of types of music played in Angola. The most common one is Kizomba; it’s a slow genre, almost like rumba in style but completely different. Artists often mix some hip hop into Kizomba. Kizomba is also often danced with a partner. Then there’s Kuduru, which is a kind of fast-paced dance music. There’s a similar kind of music in the northwest, in Côte d’Ivoire. Lastly, there’s Angolan hip hop and R&B, which is just normal Western-style music, except the lyrics are in Portuguese.

Very nice overview of Luanda. Angola! One of the most straightforward forward descriptions of an African city I have heard. Definitely seems like a place a lot of visitors would enjoy! Learning Portuguese would put the icing on the cake even though it’s not the easiest language to learn. Would be great to know say the 100 most frequently used sentences in the language and go from there.

WHY do people keep saying Luanda is NOT a cheap place as food cost is LESS than Paris(France) or Washington,D.C. Hotel rooms can be found from 30 to 50 US dollars a night (higher prices in the USA or France).

The music and dance is called Kizomba. It's like Zouk and Kompa music and dance in the French-Creole speaking carribbean islands. Angola 🇦🇴 is underrated and developed. Ppl make excuses not to go to Angola bc of language barrier but go to Brazil. But the women in the video standout and are beautiful. You the only brother from USA 🇺🇸 highlighting Angola that I have seen. It's overlooked. You've encouraged me to visit

There were lots of places you didn't go though, there's many more places to see and explore like (Barra do Kwanza, Calumbo, Kissama National Park, Kalandula Waterfalls and many more) you only got a glimpse of the city, but I know Angolans always make sure you party hardy and get lit till sunrise 😂😂😂 You can hit me up anytime next time you come to visit, be seeing ya! 👊🏽🇦🇴❤

Outside South African cities, I think the first cities that are up to standard are. 1. Luanda Angola 2. Abidjan Ivory Coast 4. Nairobi Kenya 5. Casablanca Morocco 6. Windhoek Namibia 7. Cairo Egypt. 8. Kigali Rwanda I think all other cities are probably just nice in one area but may generally and largely remain under developed in most parts of the city. Angola also had a good standard of living
