My Condolence, R.I.P. to the fallen.. May the good dear Father god keep on blessing you and your love ones. Someday soon I am planning on visiting, safe travels.
Thank you for bringing Africa alive for us viewers from an American cultural perspective. I’ve visited Asia many, many times but this year is apparently the start of visiting Africa in earnest.
Awesome! best of luck. And thanks for the feedback.
Beautiful country and great vlog!
Very nice looking town. Very clean and delightful architecture and colors.
Thank you. Watching these videos makes me want to go there so bad.
I'm definitely going to plan a trip & plan to purchase your guide 💯
What a Clean place.

As always, Willie, bring us a great video!

I think Cape Verde will make a great home for Willie to consider. Peaceful, beautiful, and have some class among other nations.
Thoroughly enjoyed it
Cool Video Will.
Good video, real on the ground street view angle
First time hearing about this place is couple days ago as I stumbled on your channel
Great job 🍺
Important information: Manjaku is the name of a West African Ethnic group found in Guinea Bissau, Senegal, Gambia and of course Cabo Verde. The Portuguese had a fort in Cacheu in Guinea Bissau and took people from the Manjaku ethnic group to populate Cabo Verde.
One love Cabo Verde !
The problem in cabo verde we dont know what is manjaku
@@animemvp9862 Não sabem mais chamam guineenses de Manjakus? Eu mesmo fui chamado de Manjaku no aeroporto de Cabo-Verde quando estava de passagem para o Brasil!
@@weroc-a-fellas169 voce e de onde?
@@animemvp9862in capeverde everyone knows who manjaku is and where it came from not the capeverdean abroad
@@Loveabounds. im cabo verdian i didn't know manjaku was a ethnic untill i was 20 years old. We use manjaku like white people call black people nigge#r
Amazing. You would think you were in the Caribbean.
The video thumbnail many of you clicked this for starts at 22:32. Thank me later. What a beautiful country and culture.
Cleaner and more beautiful than my country, Indonesia
The "beautiful song" at 32:33~ is singer name Eddu's title name "Kata Cola" 2nd minute in the song.
Your videos are super informative keep doing what you’re doing it’s needed for Africans and the diaspora. What was the cost of living there?
4:24 nice
What are the costs of different things like foods at open market vs local open market and rent etc...
Hi Willie! The song is Eddu feat. Kato Cola
There seems to be so many Senegalese in Cape Verde. I was hearing Wolof language in the background.
We have many senegalese
@@marcioluis3829from one state to another you find the same families and ethnic groups only the French, British and Portuguese tried to make it different.
Welcome in my country
The song playing at the 32:23 mark is Kata Cola - Eddu. If you like you may also dig MC Galaxy feat. Davido - Nek Unek.
Thank you so much!
It is incredible how clean and well kept this city is, much more so than other cities in the so-called “first world”.
Clean 😊. Angolan + congo blood is there too i watched a documentary they mentioned those kingdoms as well
Angola + congo that is cap we are only mix with people from west africa
Where and how did you find your guide?
The British didn’t build secondary school in the Eastern part of Nigeria too until independence in 1960. However, they built indoctrination centers which we call churches everywhere.
Great video. What is their currency like vs. USA?
Currency numbers actually don't matter much unless you are doing short term forex trading. But in terms of cost of living, food at restaurants is around the same as the U.S., transportation is slightly cheaper, and housing/hotels are significantly cheaper. Quality city center hotels go for around $50-$70.
Capeverdean currency (escudo) is pegged to the euro, therefore it doesn’t fluctuate wildly: $1 is around 105$, written in its form in Cabo verde. 🇨🇻
@@cromy1778 I didn't say public transport, I said transport ie taxi cabs. From the airport in Praia to the city center is $10-$15 both ways, which is not affordable at all, considering the distance. Also feel free to name a good restaurant in Praia which isn't a tourist trap.
It's interesting seeing Cape Verde ppl outside of the Boston area. It's not that much different.
Get your facts right my friend , the portuguese established the first High School in Cabo Verde in 1866 was called Liceu de S. Nicolau
Get your listening skills right my friend. I said it was the first secondary school in Santiago island, not the whole of Cape Verde. There was another opened in 1860. But I'm not counting that because It only lasted for 2 years. I make my content very carefully.
Praia ,have the first cape verde university
I thought I was watching Bermuda - another Atlantic colonized Island. Cape Verde is the closest in resemblance I've seen!
Exactly. You would have thought he was in the Caribbean.
Cape Verdean fishermen went to Bermuda and got stuck there and never came back most remarried this was during the early 19 hundreds of men , I believe so yes there are Cape Verdean bloodlines in Bermuda and names
@@Loveabounds. Stop with your bullsht we in Cabo Verde have no idea what is bermuda
@@animemvp9862 I’m from from Cabo verde and I been to Bermuda this is history read about it!
Every island in the atlantic were colonized. Wht are you trying to say
Wow so beautiful. Do many people speak English as a second language? I would love to visit but afraid of language barrier.
Many dont
@@marcioluis3829 what do they speak? Portuguese?
@@solomonKachi7000 yeah
@@solomonKachi7000colonial language
Just learn portuguese and practice
We are all Africain
Black originali from Africa
That high school is older than sixty years old: I went there. Most capeverdeans in the U.S. don’t come from Praia, the capital, nor the island, Santiago.
Most Cape Verde ppl I know live in the Boston area of Massachusetts
U seem 2 b shocked by cap verdians clothing, it's natural for them it might look sexy to others and it's the same reality in every Portuguese colonised countries
What do the water plants look like?
For me cape verdian women are the most beautiful black women on earth
But the population is not even close to 1 million.

SECOND HAND THRIFT CLOTHING IS MORE A MENTALITY THING ?
Orange dress.
ALOT OF RELATIVLY NEW CARS ? IS THE ECONOMY THAT GOOD ?
Most capeverdean live outside of capeverde so we have many important cars we even have people driving very expensive cars
Do they understand English in Cape Verde?
Enough for basic things, but not well.
Praia est avec Kigali et Windhoek, la ville la plus propre d'Afrique.
Ce sont peut-être les capitales les plus propres. Mais au Cap-Vert, la ville de Praia est loin d’être la plus propre.
Statues do not give vibes, where are the man? Do they have cycling lanes here? They do not have plenty of tree lines along the roads/pavement. Dominant hard surface, grey infrastructure and limited green spaces in the high street. I am learning how Portuguese lack sense of building with nature and people into built. It looks like heat Island zone, pollution drawbacks. They have slightly similar traffic lights design to South Africa. Fresh Market place is clean big up to that, most vegetables here from African decent.
Trees and plants don't grow well in Cape Verde because it is a desert climate.
I bet you are South African 🙄. This is a beautiful island, and you had to find the negatives
Chove pouco aqui
Looks far less chaotic than the mainland.
Cabo Verde parece ser um pais "bom" em comparação aos outros colonizados por Portugal na Africa.
Eh também melhor do que Brasil
E Melhor do que o Brasil também
@@delianatygoodwing2857 depende do quesito?
Infraestrutura? PIB percapita? Criminalidade? Tem coisas que o Brasil é superior a países de primeiro mundo, o Brasil é um país continental. Onde eu moro o IDH é superior a 0.800 e o PIB percapita é de mais de 30 mil.
@@LucasMauricio nao perde seu tempo ele nao e Cabo verdiano
Looks 100 times better than that over hyped country called Nigeria..
Clean streets and houses, love it .
Both Ivory Coast and Kenya , South Africa are cleaner and more developed then Nigeri as well
Senegal vs. Cape Verde is like Mexico vs. US in the context of economy it seems..
Lol why are you putting a island vs country 😅😅?? It's more cabo verde vs são tome that us fair 😊
Doesn’t look like Africa. The streets are well maintained.
The Country is CABO VERDE, not Cape Verde
And I saw nothing “shocking “ !!
WHERE THE BEAUTIFULL WOMEN AT ?
DNA. You can't say the paternal line is from Portugal as there were enslaved black men on the island. But rather many people have Portugees DNA
No, the DNA testing shows the paternal line for creole Cape Verdeans is mainly from Portugal and Europe generally. The reason is that very few European women were willing to move to Cape Verde. So the white settlers reproduced with African women. A large majority of the male slaves in such conditions did not reproduce.
Around 30% of the population is badiu or "black" Cape Verdeans who will have both paternal and maternal African ancestry. But this will still be heavily slanted towards maternal.
@@cromy1778 Yea, whatever bro. I'm going to stick to my quality sources such as the National Library of Medicine, BioRX, and "Tracing African Roots", which sampled over 200 Cape Verdean 23&me results and found that vast majority of their African DNA came from Senegambia and Guinea.
Also, don't tell me what I "meant". Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, and Guinea Bissau, all have the same DNA profile.
Third, the Portuguese had very limited operations in Angola at the time of Cape Verdean colonization in the 15th century.
I see that you are trying to "correct" me all over this page. But I don't post anything without strong factual backing and sources. If you have different theories, feel free to share them on your own video.
@@WillieFungo😲 I am so glad you are a thoughral researcher because I am so tired of white Americans trying to side step that their Europeans ancestors where all mostly responsible for slavery all in the New worlds of south and north Americas by them saying yours black ancestors sold also your black slaves to the Spanishs/Italians and Portugal. What do you say about that and what do you know in your researches the truth?!
@@WillieFungo It should be mentioned that paternal DNA is mainly due to r*pe. Those colonizers r*ped African women. Hence, that paternal Portuguese/European DNA.
WTF?!
Funny u never see a black face in their holiday brochures
Santiago Island isn't big for tourism. The adverts mainly focus on Sal and Boa Vista.
@@WillieFungo never realised it was a black country.
Visit there for what? Looks like every day nothing. smh
We have 10 islands. There’s a lot to see. Ignorant
Used clothes for sell ? And they prefer american clothes vs chinese? Lol who do you think is manufacturing those clothes? The real and the fake? Americans? Do a research to avoid thèse kind of mistakes Acores is part of Portuguese teritory too. If your Volg is like this i imagine the book…
Not really african just because the is black people from africa doesn't make it african it Portuguese built developed and populated these isles.
No they didn't. The Portuguese ruled the islands, but 95% of the population was black or mixed, even in the 19th century according to a British accounts from 1832.
Hi, I write from italy, I understand Portuguese and Spanish, I was just wondering how's the dating situation with women there, are they friendly with foreigners and where are the best places to meet them? Day time and night life, thanks in advance
😂😂😂
Hahaaa i see u like Bunga Bunga Partys😅
entendi portugues nada rapa
@@amirkamola600 😂😂😂
was there 20 yrs ago & dating sometimes..day same everywhere, & nights with a beer/cafe..😂.whatever turns you on..slowly, & remember Cabo Verde is not Thailand or Dominican Republic
Well brother willie there 3 countries in Africa with Guinea in they name , the one these talk about is call Guinea- bissau ( country should be one with cape verde ) there's Guinea equatorial , very far from the west and Guinea ( of Ahmed Sekou Toure ) got border with senegal and Guinea- bissau just don't trow thing around its confusing to people not familiar with Africa.
Don't really matter to us Cabo Verde they are all the same. I'm being real with you
