I have to tell we have a crazy terrorist organization there called Al-Shabab that controls quite a lot of territory in the south, so stay away from there and Mogadishu is safe as well but there’s occasional terrorist attacks 🥲. The north autonomous region of Somali Land is so safe & beautiful! I recommend you visit the city of Hargeysa first!

      Tbh it’s not I’ve lived here for 8 years and it’s not as expensive as y’all think it is. Tbh the hack lowkey was going to more expensive supermarkets and the wraps he got I used to get for 50p. Corn flakes here is actually 2.5 pounds in a more bigger supermarket such as carrefour. Dubai is expensive if you want to be lavish but it’s just as easily cheap if you want to be.
