Tourists are flocking back to Zanzibar, but you won't really find them outside of Stone Town and the beach resorts. Zanzibar is an island with over a million people and there are lots of little villages that continue on undisturbed from the tourist economy. One day, I decided to head south and see what I would find.
And also bring a Chinese girl along for the journey.

My last video from Zanzibar, and also apparently my longest one yet! I unintentionally created a damn movie for this one. Enjoy this strange journey in Mandarin and Swahili through rural mosques, Soviet architecture, medicine doctors and lots and lots of mavi. Good to be back

(more correctly than unapata maji) -You like to use Mbalimbali for different, you can also use tofauti e.g tofauti tofauti :) -Jengo hili* lina miaka mingapi? sio jengo hii (keep reading on noun classes :) -Inaitwaje? better than unasemaje hii kwa kiswahili... -jina lako ni nani* sio nini :) nani - who, nini - what -Unaweza kunishikia? to mean please hold it for me, sio kuninunua means to buy me? -Sina magonjwa or siumwi to mean i am not sick sio sina mgonjwa which means I have no patient -24:10 At the Kigaeni beach, Hamidi was trying to explain about mothers who make ropes using makumbi but at first I thought it was sisal. They beat the makumbi to get rope ( Kina mama wanapiga kamba) - Mtaani means at the streets "yupo huko mtaani" he is around, in the streets...village is kijijini but you translated well too could mean he was back in the village, i got that impression as well -Maji - water, maziwa - milk...ng'ombe anataka maji (the cow wants water not milk) haha - Hamidi said inanuka meaning it smells / stinks like the poo, not you could fall into it :) Lastly, did you say "baki salama?" or what did you say at the end? I couldn't hear it well. Asante for another great video even myself as a Tanzanian, I am learning that Zanzibar is huge not just Nungwi!

Did they call the holy spirit inside of them? If Africa is really the birthplace of humanity how come we don't know God before colonization? How come we have to wait for the bible to finish from another race to let us know God? Now tell me how come some Africans can call spirits from earth,sky, water ,fire who teaches them the knowledge they have about herbs, agriculture way of survival before colonization?

Nice. Yeah you really have to develop a feel for the situation here, but Zanzibar is usually safe. I hope I can get to West Africa sometime as well

Interesting to watch that area near the sea st the end of the video. If the govt tidy up these areas and beaches it will attract more tourists. Thanks for this video is important to see how other people living in rural zanzibar and areas and old buildings need to renovate, areas to keep clean including roads to be in good condition.

G'day from Sydney, Australia. I'm very happy to have at last stumbled across a travel channel that is REAL. Where I get to see and meet the real people of a country narrated by what must be the most linguistically talent man I have ever come across...I mean, here he is teaching a Chinese girl how to speak Swahili in her own language. I love your laid back style. Fuck, the Russians are everywhere...I used to love going to Thailand until they arrived in their thousands and took over the place. I was once sitting with a small beach bar owner shooting the breeze and when he found out I was Australian, he told me how the Russians operate in Thailand. They arrive on chartered flights (so they don't fly on Thai airlines) and then they normally book into Russian owned resorts, their stay is paid for in Russia. They bring in as much Vodka they can carry and don't support the local bars like his. I kid you not, I was sitting next to this lady who sold BBQ corn on the cob...just after she finished for the day, she left her stall with some embers still glowing in her small BBQ, and this big fat Russian )with a beer gut that would hold sextuplet babies) and his wife arrive with their smelly Russian sausages and start to cook their dinner using her stuff...they then pulled out their vodka and sitting on the stall owners chairs began to eat their dinner. Fuck, how mean spirited...you come to a country, and don't spend a cent supporting the local's business...and my worst is to see them beat these poor street vendors down when buying touristy trinkets. Now, I have nothing against the Russian people...they are wonderful when they are at home, but when they are tourists in Thailand, then they can all just fuck off back to Siberia. If you are going to travel, then FFS support the local economy...it's really not that hard. But back to my new found friend here, he knows how treat the local people...with respect and dignity and by speaking in their language. I've travel all over the world, I was born in Africa, have lived in SE Asia & India, and now call Australia home. Tommy, keep on truckin mate...you're giving Americans a good name again. All is not lost. Safe travels.
