Crazy, I’m working in Djibouti..i just left the grocery store inside Bawadi Mall and seen you post this video. Djiboutians are very nice and humble people…super safe.
مرحبا هل تتكلم العربية اخي وشكرا لك ❤
i never heard people call the people of djibouti djiboutians lol

Ethiopian madness of sea. Stop spreading false information.
Djibouti used to be called "Somali Coast"
It has never been part of Ethiopia.

Beautiful city .I 'm Djiboutian .thanks for this video bro
Djibouti 🇩🇯 is making a huge development 👏 Thank you for showing a positive vedeo in the world in our Djibouti City 🇩🇯 ❤
Huge development ? LOL ! Thank you for this laugh 😂
@@mazinas1979 Actually we have a high class ports, and best infrastructure, industry sectors Free trade zones, Silver road gate and Airlines, Hotels, and so on! So where are from?
@@engineeraymankw9989 I'm a djiboutian and I'm living in Djibouti since my birthday. I've traveled to several neighboring countries (Ethiopia, Somalia, Yemen, Kenya, etc.) and I can confirm that Djibouti is the most underdeveloped country in Africa. Failing or non-existent basic infrastructures (roads, health, education, etc.), poor governance, dictatorship, no freedom of expression, high living costs, poverty, mediocre standard of living, an ignorant people who graze on grass day and night and a country with no future run by a mafia....
@@mazinas1979
You are pretending a Djiboutian citizen but I'm sure that you are not Citizen of Djibouti either you are doing business or you are from our neighbor countries. What I can assure you is that in Djibouti's health care is free for its citizens. We have best education system In the country and our community are Middle income . So that you are talking about blackmailing and nonsense information. Djibouti has a Electric railway joining to Addis Ababa, it has a highly class ports. So make research before you are talking a fake information.
@@engineeraymankw9989 I'm 100% Djiboutian and I live day by day the underdevelopment of my poor country. You're talking about free care, when in fact people have to buy their own equipment/medication and bring it with them when they visit the doctor, otherwise the treatment won't be provided. You haven't even mentioned the catastrophic state of the roads, the National Education system that produces students who can barely read and write properly, the corruption around every corner, the prevailing poverty (except for the mafia-like ruling class), the dictatorship, the monopoly, the tribalism, the capital that looks like a shantytown, the endemic unemployment, ... Shall I continue or stop? You're just an agent of the dictatorial regime in place, who wants to give a good image of the country when it's quite the opposite...
I can smell the Djibouti heat through the screen
yh funny guy💀
Haven’t seen anything on Djibouti before; appreciate your work! Keep it coming king 🔥
winter is the best time to visit Djibouti 😍
Winter does not exist in Djibouti
Welcome to Djibouti 🇩🇯
they have nice looking cars
Wow Man.
Great Vlogging. Show more about Djibouti 🇩🇯.
Thanks for these videos.❤
The reason you as a traveler aren’t having any issue is because you blend in a bit more than the normal traveler going to Djibouti.
Walking around with a camera speaking loudly with an American accent definitely took away the "blend in" part
Great content mate, I have been watching your videos since you went to my home city of Hargeysa Somaliland.
bravo,u light good video from Djibouti,welcome again we are here thanks
thank you for visiting my country i live abroad and i hope you film more about djibouti♥♥
There’s nothing to film there sorry

@@abdinasiraden2593 your're right bro !!!!
Thank you for your update video, I use to work in Djibouti and I have 12 years since I left but I see nothing much changed since then so far
Great video it is more French in architecture and language than what I thought. And you dispell the myth that is is super expensive. Nice trip report under heat and beautiful blue sky.
I love travelling myself and on occasions I have ventured well off the tourist trail. I enjoy watching travel vlogs of places that few people would consider going to and this video really exemplifies that. I enjoyed watching enough to subscribe to your channel and I look forward to seeing more of your content.
Beautiful country, the street looks like similar to Asmara city
Asmara is another level.

You are literally in my country Djibouti 🇩🇯 I wish I were you while you were filming around the city
Shout out to you brother this is going to be more valuable than you think especially to the diaspora communities that’s never been to there homeland your doing it Big”” Brooo the real experience is going to the mom & pop shops but it is a little difficult with out a local “!
Cuz aniigu j’ai quitté le bled le 23 septembre 2013 dès que je suis arrivé aux États-Unis, j’ai commencé à faire mes études universitaire (dégrée et puis master) après avoir fini mes études j’ai dérocher un boulot qui paye très bien comme informaticien.
11 ans plus tard, j’ai acheté une maison de 3 chambres qui m’a coûté $380,000 + je me suis marié et j’ai 2 gosses et je traverse le monde entier avec mon passeport américain sans aucun problème.
Alors laisse-moi te poser cette question au bled qu’est-ce que vous avez en fait au bled???……IOG miya😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cabrón keep ur so called Homeland cos as far I know la diaspora have ZERO plan coming back to the dusty streets😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dusty streets is where u belong warya. Si tu ne veux pas revenir it's up to u mais corrige ton langage. Anyway we dont claim u too, stay where u r..
great content bro! the "T" in Jibuuti is emphasized/enunciated. that's the correct pronunciation. it's not just you but a lot of ppl do it
Welcome to Djibouti my home town😊
Oh yeah. Corrupt cops man 😅 Djibouti is where I’m originally from, they always get amazed at the airport when I mention that I don’t have Djiboutian citizenship and that I must get a visa every time I’m going to motherland. Well when I go, usually in the winter season Boston gets very cold and snowy and in Djibouti there’s no such thing as winter so it’s the perfect time and I’ve been there 12 times and the longest stay I had was 3 months, but even then I don’t get bothered when I’m taking pictures of whatever wherever whenever. It’s just the fact that you don’t really know the local languages to tell them to F off or befriend a local (advice to people who want to go there) and then they’ll never ever bother you.
I'll give u my citizenship if you want bro
@@ibrazard8067 thanks man. I have my passport now, just came back 2 weeks ago!
@@JahronIIComment vas-tu
You came while the weather was still comfortable. I have been here for about 6 years now. This is truly my second home. The locals are friendly and easy going. I have never really had any issues since being here. One or two "disagreements" but nothing more than that.
The military bases are largely to protect the bab Al mandab strait which is a crucial choke point for global trait. It also help Djibouti keep Ethiopian expansionist away from Somali-lands because they’ve been claiming our land for a long time.
Djibuti was part of ethiopia.The French stole it saying lets lease it
@@yanicyoda4762
Bullshit!
@@yanicyoda4762 ethiopian history proved that the country was just part of amhara kilil like gonder and gojam even not all the amhara kilil
@@omarcilmijaamac Amhara Just meant People from higher elevation ,mountain side.And most of the king of kings were from that region. And the country was Ruled by province kings and they reported to the king of kings annointed by the church .so yeah djbuti was part of the afar kings kilil or province
Djibouti is paradis the world❤

You dont see alot of African Americans coming to the Motherland to explore and learn with their eyes and contribute to the local economy with their tourism. Good For you @Sly's Life
hoping you stay safe out on your travels Sly!
Djibouti is a safe place
Thank you for sharing
I am surprised you didn’t went to the coast city of Berbera in Somaliland. It has some prestigious beaches. ❤🎉 I have been following you from Somaliland, Somalia and no Djibouti and I wish you would give yourself little bit more time in these countries to really experience and appreciate the local hospitality.. anyways, shout out from the Seatown…the home of the Salish peoples. 🎉❤
you didn't go not didn't went
Is Berbera safer than Djibouti for foreigners?
I do not think so
SOMALIA* NOT SOMALILAND
I heard you within this clip saying Somalis spread different countries but Can you at least try to know the history of the country you are traveling.
If you look in the middle of Somali flag there is star with five edges..
the colony divided Somalia into five different parts
1-somali Ethiopia
2-somali Kenya
3-somali France(Djibouti)
4-Somali Italy(south Somalia)
5-Somali British(North Somalia)
Somali used to be a huge country but divided by the colony because of their ethnicity(Muslim County 100%).
the main language spoken these areas is Somalia plus colonial language
i.e. Djibouti(France) second language.
Djibouti Is one of the Countries divided by the colony
Hope you understand all my explanations
WAKE UP TO REALITY THERE IS NOTHING CALLED SOMALI EVERYONE HAS IS ON LAND
THE REAL SOMALIS ARE DJIBOUTI SOMALILAND
Somalia is divided into 5 English and Italian there some are near Kenya, Djibouti, utopia , Somaliland, and Southside are all some country of Somalia
THERE IS NOTHING CALLED SOMALI EVERYONE HAS IS ON LAND

4:53 correction. Only 1/4 is called Ogaden in Ethiopia rest are Hawd and Reserved area and Hararghe. You’re welcome 👍🏾 hope you’re enjoying it
Love your shows.
East African in general are camera phobic. Largely it's because of the volatile political situation of the countries.
À Djibouti, il y'a aucun conflit . C'est stable .
Will you be checking out Rwanda? It's somewhere I've wanted to go to.

Djibouti is a strategic country located at the mouth of the Red Sea , about 2500 commercial ships pass through the straight of Bab Al Mandab, , 25 miles from Yemen,
Your viewers would love to hear about the strategical importance of this country to the economy of the world
And why still poor???
Like , Equatorial Guinea , which is the richest country per capita in Africa , the wealth is unevenly distributed among the few elite in the ruling party, corruption is the name of the game

Somalia city but country ❤️
Hadii ad luqada englihska garnyn ha isku qasbiin
@@ameinrealone6852he’s right.. it was part of Somalia 🇸🇴 “ Somali city but country” is the right statement to describe Djibouti.
@user-li8jy8zc8h Djibouti 🇩🇯 isn't part of somalia and never was they claimed their independence from French protectorate in 1977, like somaliland took independence 17years before Djibouti, and also somalia after a few days when somaliland took their freedom from British empire and then they united as one with somalia. After that, they broke away again, two separate countries now 💔😢
What ??? Your comment is so weird
When have we ever had something to do with Somalia ?
Lol you guys are already false claiming Somaliland don’t add Djibouti 🇩🇯 to your shenanigans
The Somali ethnic group constitutes the majority population in both countries and there is a common history between the countries but it is clear that you do not know anything about it I think You have been successfully brainwashed by colonialism. Congratulations.
Djibouti and Somalia speak similar language and share culture generally, but Djibouti is basically French because its a former french colony, the country also hosts various country's military bases, USA, French, China and others. Its stable compared to Somalia, its one of the troop countries in AMISOM/ATMIS mission in Somalia.

All the Horn of Africa is Somali, the European powers split us into 5 different parts the British took 3 (Somaliland/ Hawd reserve area) the Ogadeen and NFD now northern kenya, the French took Djibouti the Italians took Somalia,
Greetings from Mexico
Sly, I truly enjoyed this video. We are twin souls. Love the same countries - would be great to chat or meet you in Addis Ababa sometime.
It's not pronounced "Jaboody" as if there is a D at the end..... it is "JabooTI". Another tip is to try to build rapport with the locals and have a friendly conversation before asking them if they "want to say something to the camera"... most people aren't open to that right away without getting your vibe first. Anyways, welcome
as djib"Thank you for your feedback, it means a lot to us as Djiboutians.🙏
Thanks for dropping by!!!
Love " it's not ja booty, it's ya booty"

English speakers might mispronounce my country, Djibouti 🇩🇯, as "Djiboody" due to the unfamiliar combination of letters and sounds in the name. It's important to make an effort to pronounce it correctly as "Ji-buu-ti," respecting the proper pronunciation of a country's name.

Yes Brother , 1889 the Europeans had a conference called the conquest of Africa and Somali territories we were carved up into three different regions, first was Somaliland fall under the British rule Djibouti was taken by France and South Somali territory went the Italian, later on Kenya was given the most southern part of Somali territory and British gave Ogaden to Ethiopia

Great job
Our embassy is out there putting in that work with spreading the use of English in this country. I hope the program continues to grow especially with the American military base located there that continues to improve indicating it shall be there for quite a while. This benefits Djibouti as it receives money for allowing the many different military bases there plus it’s able to cut spending on its own military and hopefully use the savings for beneficial programs such as investing in better schools or in developing the country. But with the large presence of American forces perpetually there, it surely will be well defended from an foreign adversary despite being in probably the most strategic point of the Red Sea. The USA historically hasn’t performed well in Africa and not many hearts and minds have been won in favor of “American imperialism” or so it’s critically named, however I believe with a fresh new initiative focusing on the American narrative and the public opinion of Djibouti along with using this base as a springboard to launch humanitarian operations in Somalia and other struggling HOA nations, along with the emphasis on sophisticated health care instead of attempting to spread democracy and emphasizing materialism will be more effective. I believe a serious focused effort specifically in this region can create a swaying of opinion across the continent. By partnering the military for security with large non profit health aid and humanitarian organizations, there could be much improvement in the general opinion of the people there. This will certainly affect the people’s support of Islamic terrorist organizations and militias. Especially in Somalia, efforts like this will galvanize the population in favor of the American backed government and the renaming pockets of Al shabaab could be eliminated without the possibility of a resurgence. This would be an extremely huge win for both Somalia and also the American military so there are benefits that make it worth considering.
VIVA 🇩🇯 DJIBOUTIANS
The name Djibouti is a true depiction of the country. It really is the butt crack of the world.
