🥒ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but currently call Vietnam home. I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

The fact the future head of the village wants the children to go be educated and take on better lives and jobs is very touching. To have love for his home and want to keep its culture alive while also wanting change for the better for those who seek it is very unique. I hope the kids do travel and spread aspects of their culture to other areas of the world

All I can say is, I feel soo humbled. I am Nigerian and I know things could be better but it's the fact that 'suffering and smiling' has become the norm.

​HOODOO DAUGHTER ... (SussexStan) Because of xenophobia. Ideally, Nigeria is richer than South Africa (the richest in the continent, with the richest Black men in the world), but the level of corruption is the reason people want to get away. It's disheartening having the richest and poorest people in Africa in the same nation.

You are eating, helping each other, protecting each other, uplifting each other. You are not poor. Poor people have no resources and no love. This is simply a community that is not materialistic, which is GOOD! Once you are shown greed, materialism, selfishness, you realize the better life was this one....all that is needed is trash removal, little bit of hygiene upgrade. When i got my first house, i wondered why my mother's house never had the inch thick gray dust on the baseboards that mine did...it's cuz she scrubbed them every other week! I never saw that part. So the upkeep of surroundings is just a valuable as the procurement!!

@@ayomidebright6052 I think we all try to make our lives better and there is nothing wrong with doing that. But we should also remember to appreciate what we have in our present lives. I think our definition of success needs to be based on the good we have done to help our fellow man, and not hurt him. I try to always be nice to others, and smile, and say hi to others. I think the problem is that people in the world today see being nice as a vulnerability, or as trying to compensate for something, or as someone that can be pushed around or taken advantage of. I try to live my life like I believe God wants me to, and to cherish relationships, support people and help others. I want to be that one person who smiled and said something nice to someone who really needed it, even if a hundred don't.

I used to sleep in my Bronco in Los Angeles circa the early 2000s. I met this guy from Nigeria while we were both eating at a Kenyan restaurant (they had this affordable daily buffet) by ourselves. We got to talking and became friends as he was also sleeping in his car. He told me about this place Makoko near where he was from. I couldn’t remember the name until I found this video. Incredible video, I feel like all the stories he told me about this place have come alive while watching this video. Thank you.

@@ohmygodfreeusername ah sold it when I got deported. Circa 2007. Missed that truck. Was desert ready so neighbor down the street bought it for their son to drive in the desert (raised shocks in the front and had a winch). Bronco was a 1991 previously owned by Sheriff's department in Southern California.

@@ohmygodfreeusername Yep that’s the truth. I got blocked at the Canadian/US border when I went to renew my work visa. Had some great memories with that truck, lived in it for 3 years in Southern California and went to Baja whenever I could. Was a work horse. Not feeling the new Broncos at all, I feel they look anemic compared to the classic Broncos.

I have been in Lagos for 5 years. I cross that bridge at least twice every month. I see these houses on the water and think to myself, this is a part of Lagos I do not have any business with. The truth is, we are all connected and watching this has given me a better sense of the things we take for granted. I will pay a visit to this community on water, visit their homes, eat and drink with them as my brothers and sisters. Help us make Nigeria better.

Wow Miss Nigeria is his tourguide! She competed in Miss World 2019, and got into top 5, and the happiest contestant when Miss Jamaica won the title. I notice her because that's the location when they shoot her beauty with a purpose campaign. Amazing 🤩
