How to Deal with an Elephant in Your Room: A Survival Guide 🇺🇬 vA 109 

Oh God, that receptionist was so respectful ❤❤

That receptionist woman is so respectful

And because of you Yves,we are seeing places we have never visited. We are thankful. ❤🇰🇪

The receptionist is a genuinely wonderful human being. Very kind

You simply can not beat the passion French people have. Amazing and contagious.

Being a Ugandan is a blessing from God ❤❤🎉🎉

And We will Continue to be here for you.I’m from Nigeria 🇳🇬 🇳🇬🇳🇬 But I salute you for confronting& Correcting that guy with the Evil Tongue 👅 .You made New Friends again.

Kenyan RU-vidr received backlash few years ago after expressing her shock to find National Parks in Uganda. She looked ignorant but her ignorance represented many of us. I supported her because I had never heard of such in Uganda. I was embarrassed when I did a simple Google search and came across Queen Elizabeth National Park, home of tree climbing lions, Bwindi National Park - home of Mountain gorillas, plus many others. I had to travel to Uganda and experience it. Uganda is an underrated tourist destination. There is more than the Source of the Nile. When you visit Uganda, you always want to go back. Our family is headed there for a birthday celebration in a few weeks. Thank you for showing more of Uganda and Africa. Stereotypes and ignorance must be dealt with.

I’m from Zimbabwe and I have to say this park is beautiful

Yves, your reaction to such unsettling words is a natural human response, and it’s completely understandable. However, your extensive travels have undoubtedly shown you the spectrum of human nature-the good and the not-so-good. It’s important to remember that the kindness and warmth you’ve encountered far outweigh the negative. Stay focused on your admirable goals and the rich cultural experiences that await. Each encounter, even the challenging ones, is a valuable lesson in the diverse tapestry of humanity. Your journey is about growth and learning, and this is just another part of the incredible story you’re living. Keep your spirit undeterred and continue to embrace the beauty of our world and its people.

With Gorreti welcoming you, there's no way you could've left searching for different accommodation 😂

What a beautiful and green field country ( Uganda 🇺🇬 ). Thanks for sharing

That boy was very clear . He asked you if you wanted to know the methods of harvesting tea.

Exactly, it was a way of preventing danger, but people have to know how to express themselves properly. Long live Uganda

Merci beaucoup Yves for visiting and showing Uganda our mother land to the world 🙏✌️🇺🇬

You are so kind to say that your supporters have helped you persevere in your journey! That’s the sign of a grateful person. Best wishes!💫

What an amazing experience...and the hostess at the lodge was so lovely

It's probably their way of saying they think you act dangerous cycling on the highway, instead of wishing you to die or even threatining you...

Ugandan moms are so fantastic

They don't threaten to death instead they said that your method of ride can cause instant death if you will ride irresponsibly! Watching from Rwanda 🇷🇼,Kigali

Waaaoo I'm Kenyan and shocked by how that queen Elizabeth place is beautiful 😢❤❤❤❤

That is how beautiful Uganda is ❤❤❤ woow elephant 🐘 passing at your home

Beautiful safari. The hotel receptionist was so kind.

*Now this is the real Africa* 🇰🇪

Yves! One of the best videos, they just keep getting better and better. I found you last year and after I caught up with your current releases I went back and watch the entire journey. Amazing! Be well my friend!

I would like to appreciate you for you showing us the whole Africa . I am from Ethiopia I am traveling with you so far May God be with you !

A minute fourty two seconds in, I had to pause and read comments on that grand welcome! The welcoming lady and her choice of words, grace and humbleness made me feel like I was the one being welcomed. She excelled! That hotel is a true getaway to soak up some sanity 🙂

Kino, I'm Ethiopian and I have been living around Kasese for the past two years. Those guys talking about" you're gone d*# today", they are just trying to refer to how dangerous that road is. There has been many fatalities over the years. They mean no harm. Infact, they are the most humble society I have ever known.

Some Yves I understand where you are coming from, but in Uganda and Africa at large, saying "you are going to die" implies you're risking your life on the roads with that bike. Simply that. ❤😅 We are poetic ❤❤😅😅

Banange I love you ugandan ❤❤❤❤❤❤nobody will beat ugandan hospitality .....❤❤❤I worked with them in South sudan very kind people ❤❤❤

Uganda, the pearl of Africa

Wow, Uganda is really beautiful. I have added it to my bucket list.

Loved that interaction with your countryman

@Kino Vyes..The hospitality from this Ugandan Gorety is out of this world...Typical of well trained, well brought up Ugandan hotels operators

Am Kenyan but kenya n Uganda are not neighbours they are brothers n sisters,with so much trade so much intermarriage n so much related cultures,just internet banters ,but i cant say the same for other east africa countries 😂😂.. Uganda is on my bucket list

In Uganda, saying you're going to die is not a threat. Its a warning that what you're doing is risky. They're cautioning you to be careful but since the cultures are different you take it as a threat.

Thanks Yves for acknowledging that many of us here on the continent are there with you in spirit.. Bear with some of us who are being a bit (if not openly) envious or even resentful..

Don't worry, my friend, about the words of sick people 😊 In the previous video, I was hoping that there would be an additional clip about animals, and here you filmed it in Elizabeth National Park. It is very wonderful 🤩 I loved elephants very much Enjoyable trip ..💕💪🏻

I respect the way you stand up for yourself, even in a foreign country. Most people would be too scared to say anything, but you always let people know that you know they’re ripping you off, or being disrespectful. You could teach seminars on how to travel and stay safe!

Thanks for sharing your challenges, too. It helps a lot to remember that it’s important to persevere when things get tough. And it helps to have people who support your journey no matter what.

I think they mean we'll considering the meaning from their culture. Don't let it get into you. It's too insignificant for this great journey. That boat ride in the wild was so so epic. Ugandan ladies in hospitality; thumbs up. #GoYves.

Amazing experiences Yves. We keep cheering you on. Thanks for bringing us along.

Thanks for making us part of your travels, the effort and sacrifices are appreciated, keep pushing, you don't know how many people are learning resilience from this filmed journey's!!

Uganda is so green hills mountains everywhere

It's always feel good to meet fellow country men in foreign lands. Keep going Yve

Ives, don´t be such a Karen! The guy was telling you "you are gonna die" as in "be careful", or "you are crazy". Just normal misunderstanding, their English is basic. Don´t call the manager. Big smile is always the best response.

❤Thank you Brother❤YVES ❤for showing us the wonderful World ❤

It's incresible as a you met your future you, in this same situation, telling someone who you see on the road that you did the same eight years ago.

Merci Yves de nous avoir montré la beauté de mon pays .

Merci Yves ! Des rencontres incroyables dans cet épisode, entre autres des éléphants très familiers et un cycliste français qui a traversé l'Afrique avec le même tricycle. C'était magnifique !

Thanks Yves for appreciating us.

Wow. Uganda is beautiful and green.

Good job kino you have show cased the pearl of Africa

It was very nice that you acknowledged your viewers' contributions to your journey. The message felt like that I, as viewer of your trips, am there doing the journey myself, and it was very heartwarming! Thank you!

Beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing your wonderful adventure. It is a miserable, wet, damp day, here, on the west coast of Ireland so to watch your travels is perfect escapism! The woman who hosted you in the National Park Lodge was such a great ambassador for her country, such warmth, hospitality and elegance. I must say your French is not too shoddy . . . ;- )

Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us. God bless you on your journey

Be making such long videos so that we may enjoy watching,in Nairobi Kenya we support you,i love Uganda oli otya mukwano 😘

Thanks again for the video. Very good. I'm enjoying Uganda so much. It's beautiful. Keep safe.

What an unexpected. Quoi de plus fou que de rencontrer un autre Français qui a vécu la même chose que toi, la probabilité est juste dingue et pourtant. Passionnant ces paysages!

Oooh our beautiful country ❤❤❤ oooohhh Uganda

Yeah thanks for showing us the journey Yves. Keep going 👍

Beautiful sights. I schooled in Uganda anf and that country is beautiful.

Yves great vlog , I’m already looking forward to your next one .😃👍

Kino u must know that we in Africa English is not our first language,the guy saying u will die today ment totally different from what u understood,i know for a fact its normally a joke they say due to conditions of that road ,so relax frenc boy

This was a great video, gods speed Yves.

Your channel is on my top 5 list! Really like your videos and adventures!

I really enjoyed the french luangage❤❤❤

I can't wait until Yves is just outside of Cape Town and tells people he is going to Cape Town and they think it is really unremarkable 🤪

My husband & I love to watch your journey & enjoy watching every video .. bravo to your adventurous spirit Yves.. blessings & hugs ❤

The journey continues despite the two guys who annoyed you about death

Method of harvesting tea

"I dont know Uganda, my God, what a beautiful country with really nice people. It made me want to visit this country. Thank you for this lovely video.

Wow beautiful elephants,, thank you kyv for taking us along,, beautiful uganda it is,,,

Journey mercies Yves may God protect you,you will not die. May you live to come visit Africa again thank you for your smiles.

Good for you for stopping and asking

Finally you took the advice you got while in Kenya to have a flag of the country you are in. Nice move. That ad a layer of protection and friendliness. Otherwise Goretti is an awesome receptionist. Her warmness can make one to overlook the cold shower. Finally Uganda is underrated. Those scenaries look like heaven.

Wow beautiful place with amazing nature love this video I enjoy watching this amazing video

Beutifull Africa and people so nice great animals and nature, withot you we dont see all the beutifull africa so thank you.

Gotta love this gentleman Yves so very humble and I appreciate your message at the end yes keep up the good work really enjoy your videos I myself will return to Africa sometime next year maybe I'll do a jog throughout the cities like I used to do because of you I'm inspired to do that again!!!!

People from collective societies speak in context. People from Individualistin societies are linear and speak directly. When an African tells you something, you have to understand the context. You should never interpret it directly especially if you are from the west.It’s better you ask and the person explains in depth. You have encountered some other examples before, like when they say, „stand up“, „ you are suffering Another point is, those boys are young. That’s how they talk!

I just want to give her a big hug... the receptionist nice lady ❤

Well , you went thru my village , great to see you enjoying my village's coolest atmosphere, its the most green in your videos

Awesome video!

Go!!Go!!!Go!!! You have all our support....one Love ❤

Salute Brother! The beauti abd diversity if Afruca yet to come. Continue pedaling.

That bend after Kazinga channel is one of the most dangerous spots

Thank you for appreciating us, Thanks to you too, you came all the way from France to show us our own backyard. It's embarasing but it's the reality. We need to wake up GOD BLESS YOU.

Bravo à toi et au delà de nous faire voyager avec toi, on apprend énormément. Merci
