    He just climbed up a steep mountain with a washing machine-wow! I respect this man. My grandfather repaired washing machines, but this is a whole other level. This is an affordable way for people not to handwash, it's a genius idea but hard for sure. I respect him very much.

You definitely need his style botas during the rainy season. No other shoe or boot will survive. I watch this video and I miss being in Colombia. Please share more of these videos. These are the people to keep this country running. Beautiful people!

    I love to see other people's ways of living. I saw this in San Andres, people renting washing machines. I used to love watching people go about their early morning routines which was a star contrast to the hustle and bustle I am used to here. So relaxing. If I have a double comment, sincere apologies. I don't think my original post appeared. Experiencing other cultures, living where the everyday people live instead of a hotel, really helps to open the eyes.

    I really liked this quick view into Cuidad de Bolivar. Could you do some more videos about what life is like in the communas: what are the houses like, how do they get the building materials, the electricity, water, etc. Are there toilets? Do residents have to "pay for protection" from gangs that control the communas? How big are the families? Where do people that live here work? How far do they have to travel to work? How much money does a typical communa resident live on, and what ingenious/frugal things do they do to stretch their money far enough? How has the pandemic affected the communas? I read many residents are originally from the countryside, and have come to the big cities in the past 70 years to work in the industrial economy, or more recently displaced by the civil war (apparently more in Cali). Is that correct? What else should one know to understand life here?

  • @stevegfromnc3482
    @stevegfromnc3482 3 роки тому

    Some people are suggesting he open a laundromat with his 5 machines and let people come to him. But that machine just washes/rinses on one side and spins out the water on the other. The customers would then be carrying 5, 10, maybe even 15 kg of wet clothes home to put on the clothes line to dry. So it makes sense they would pay to have the machine come to them. Remember clothes dryers are very rare in Latin America. I am guessing a bit here, does that make sense, Mahia?
