@@EddieExplores Yeah. I grew up there. I never saw anything that anyone might consider dangerous. (like religious extremists or full on criminals, anything like that)

Hello bro, i thought this channel is one with "earth enchanted" and i found out i have not yet subscribed with this (now im subscribed).... How's that channel?
wish i knew u visited us in tripoli, would have been swell to meet u if it was possible and grab a bite, maybe next time and we even make a collab video, that would be awesome. Man, that dude at the ''KousKous'' is one heck of a sour puss, he was rude, that was not necessary at all, i promise u if i ever go there, gonna give him a stern talk. it blows my mind that when u saw the horse, it is like walking distance from my house, i can actually see the train station from my bedroom window.....i also drive there each day at 3 pm back home from work. that drink u had....the TAMARIND, it is not of good quality btw, i never had it becuase i know it is no good. don't feel bad about the scummy people taking u to the rabits island, they smell a tourist and they only see $ signs, they are all a disgrace btw, we hate them with a passion, so it is not only u. btw, the place u swam....i don't think i ever even thought about swimming there, we really avoid that place like the plague, u need to go a bit south to have a great swim, like SHEKKA and KALAMOUN. FUNNY STORY : that statue of computers ? one of the computers inside was mine, i gave my old pc away back in the 90s to the creator (rest in peace) as a sign of gratitude to my mentor who was a pioneer in computing in the 90s. btw, a final statement: u said tripoli feels nothing like the rest, i kindly resent this since u went to the more ''slum'' areas and seen the old places, tripoli is at more times , even more expensive than beirut , u didn't go to the fancy beaches , u didn't visit the posh streets, the high class restaurants, so while i appreciate the video and i am sure ur audience does, it kinda gave the impression that all of tripoli is like that old, derelict state, wish while it is, it also isn't, so just had to say it, u only showed the poorest areas, the slums, and the old part, just wish ur audience to know that.
Next time brother! Would be great to meet. What was the couscous man saying in Arabic? I didn't even realise he was being rude at the time. Can't believe you contributed to the computer sculpture! That is awesome. Yes I have heard parts of Tripoli are very nice but I always prefer to explore the old town in most cities in the Middle East, I love the history.
@@EddieExploresI mean while the couscous guy wouldn't win any hospitality awards, I don't think he was really that rude? All he said was that this guys is speaking foreign to me, come speak foreign to him. (To his buddy) Unless there's something I missed.
@@EddieExplores guess......mumble mumble...all the corrupted politicians and a non exhisting government, that's very sad, I ve been several times to Lebanon
Everyone I met in Lebanon, locals and travellers alike, had bad stories about Tripoli. I had a great day though and didn't feel in danger at all. The people there were awesome.
