SHOCKED IN ETHIOPIA (Epic local experience) 

Thank you for watching this video, guys - I am really happy how this one came it, interactions with the local people, air travel, road travel, local food, fascinating sites and all around good vibes. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! If you missed my last my last Ethiopia video, you can see it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zavVdRWPVIM.html Cheers! Nick 💗🇪🇹

That little boy at 6:55 who shook your hand had the sweetest smile ever

Such sweet children

I have worked with a lot of Ethiopians and find they are the most sincere and hardworking people ever! Makes me want to visit one day. And the food is amazing!!

Children are pure, no matter in which country they are.

I worked in Ethiopia back in ‘85-86. I miss that country. It was pure reality.

Ethiopian people are chill ❤ - From Bangladesh

What a treat that was, I love that the kids are so open to saying hello. This goes to show that borders don't stop us from being friends. Great video Nick! 🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥

Mobile issues are probably the govt taking down the network to stop political unrest. Ethiopia stole part of my heart. Amazing country with beautiful people.

God bless Ethiopia

Ethiopia is beautiful 💚💛❤️ the people are very kind and polite 🙏🏼

OMG, the kids are so adorable! Ethiopia looks incredible! Epic drone shots.

Wow Ethiopia looks amazing. Thank you so much for taking us along.

Ethiopia, a Nation full of History, Nationalistic pride and African Nationalism. The only African Nation that defeated the European invaders and have never been colonized. Ethiopians fought bravely to defeat the Italians and chased them out of Ethiopia and Africa!

The kids are so cute when they’re coming to shake your hand! Keep being you! Great video as always! ❤️ from a fellow kiwi

The girl that wanted a picture - ultra super cute! And her dress was really nice too! Adorable

I have always been curious about Ethiopia it seems like a nice place with rich history and culture

I'm not great with kids, but in these travel videos I always get emotional when I see how kids are unprejudiced, they have such a honest big smiles when talking to foreigners, I love it

After coming across many travel Channels, yours a one other seems to still be legit travel Channels and not sex tourism disguised as travel channels! Besides your honest thumbnail and no raunchy click baiting, Your whole approach, your kindness patience , humbleness and getting translators who have local attachments for the most part , shows your really genuine and interested. You even add local go fund me!

Thanks for visiting my homeland 🇪🇹 I hope you loved it I'm blessed to live in Ethiopia May Allah bless my homeland 🇪🇹

The Ethiopian people are so beautiful.

Ethiopia is one of the oldest and most unique preserved cultures on Earth. I would be very proud to be Ethiopian.

Another Epic Video...thank you soooooo much! You have the knack of showing the 'real' people!

When I grow up I want to be like Indigo Traveller.

Really incredible to see you doing this stuff. I dont think I could ever handle the uniqueness of each experience. Trusting all the people around you. I pray for your safety.

I want to let you know that I'm really, really enjoying this Ethiopia journey. It's giving me a sneak preview into what I am getting into. I intend to be there for about 3 weeks starting in mid December, before going to Egypt again for 90 days. I'm actually going to start my own vlog. Your vlog going through Egypt inspired me to start video taping my time there, and stop just taking photos. I know you are a fan of Mark Wiens. I was watching his recent journey through Ethiopia and especially Harar. The Heyna feeding looks too terrifying NOT to miss. As someone who has researched extensively what Ethiopia has to offer the traveler, I'm getting excited to see what places you are going to visit while you are in Ethiopia. Thanks for being so inspiring.

I really hope you take the time to read this ‘before’ you finish your trip to Ethiopia bro. First and foremost I’ll start with the positive. I respect your positive attitude, your sense of adventure, your editing skills and honestly you seem like a pretty cool dude. Having said that, there is so much about these last two videos in Ethiopia that make my blood boil. As a British born and raised Ethiopian, I feel a sense of duty to try and break down what’s infuriating about your video. You travel to Ethiopia, one of the fastest growing economies in the world, with transit systems, hundreds of classy hotels, amazing bars and clubs, incredible food and Restaurants, and several other signs of modernity and yet you just couldn’t find one shot of a tall building, a decent hotel, a decent restaurant? Not even a decent road? Or decent train? Nothing. It’s like westerners travelling to the developing world want to only show and continue to perpetuate one narrative. You have literally flown to Gondor and not put a single shot of the castles? This is a nation with arguably one of the most fascinating histories in Africa (3000 years of history). Castles, rock hewn churches, museums galore. But no, you’d rather point your camera at dogs and old cars. I just don’t get it. Why not show diverse shots? Show the poverty whilst showing the development. Show houses made of mud and show the grand castles. Thankfully, even in this random remote village you went too, your drone exposed that it really isn’t THAT bad. Now look I’m not saying that you’re doing this intentionally but bro. Come on. You went to Gondor and didn’t shoot one clip of the castles?! That’s insane. That’s like me doing a vlog in London, shooting some clips of the ghetto, and then calling it a day due to rain and then catching a train to the most economically depressed part of the north of England to shoot crack heads down an alley. That wouldn’t even be that bad, as the world knows London pretty well. But a misunderstood and under-explored nation like Ethiopia suffers at the hands of vloggers and travels like you. Of course it’s not with Ill intention but it perpetuates the narrative non the same. I honestly implore that you try to diversify your footage somewhat. If that’s possible. Now of course you don’t have too. I will and am planning on doing that myself. But until I do, I’ll make a request to a fellow creative. Happy travels bro and please understand this is constructive criticism. Blessings. P.s. might be a good idea to google the best season to travel to a country before heading there. I’m sure that travelling in the rainy season would dampen many a traveller. Also perhaps google ‘cool places to see’ before flying out. I mean just a little research before you travel. Peace bro.

you amaze me every time , the trust you have in others is great , thank you for showing the real side of the countries you visit and it is always great to see the smiles on the kids , BE SAFE , BE WELL

KiaOra bro from Auckland. Really enjoying following your travels mate. Your footage and off beaten track filming is like nothing I’ve seen. Very polite and respectful. Great ambassador. Keep safe. Regards Steve.

Man, this guy has some amazing travel tips. He also stays the most vibrant areas where he can mingle with the locals. I hope he stays safe wherever he goes!

Your vlogs are truly an inspiration to travel into the actual foreign lands! Your whole Africa tour so far is the most captivating series so far! Keep safe Nick! Thank you!

it is an epic blog... really gives that feeling of realization that comes with an open mind in journey.... also, so filled with the vibe of that place... as for expensive hotels... there's a system of locals offering rooms to guests which is much cheaper, but, being semi-official, you have to know someone to introduce you into it. its sort of like home-staying, with your own room or hut... commonly you trade minimal comfort, for a lot of interaction with locals and authentically delicious meals.

Hey man, my three year goal is to be doing what you are doing full-time. Traveling has been my biggest passion since I was a kid, but I'm caught up in a 9-5 with bills and massive debt. Haven't left the country in five years. But I'm laying out how to do it all and your channel gives me hope. We only get one life and it is still possible to pursue our dreams. Keep up the good work and I really see the progress you've made with editing. This is the best edited travel channel on YT.

I always Imagined Ethiopia as a dry sandy dust bowl...it actually looks nice and green...Australia is way dryer

the one thing ive noticed throughout nicks travels is how much more accepting kids are compared to adults..obv adults know better stranger danger etc but its cool to see the kids across the world being so welcoming n curious

Keep them coming! Every one of your videos is incredibly entertaining AND so educational! Learning about the world this way is so fun...

When kids reached out to him while smiling this somehow made me want to cry. These kids deserve the best future.

OUTSTANDING! This video and experience is SO RAD. Oh Nick, this is so in my wheelhouse and I’m so grateful to you for going there and filming. Isn’t injera bread great?! I’m fortunate to have had the real thing made by Somalians, Ethiopians & Eritreans. It’s eaten by the entire East African “horn” countries. Yum! I’ve also heard Ethiopia is great for vegetarian and vegan dishes. Enjoy. Thank you so, so much again! 🙏🏼👍🏼✌🏼💕

You are such a brave man Nick, as the average person wouldn't dream of going to such remote places. Loved it when all little kids came up to you their with smiley faces it was a picture and a lot of the locals seem to be very friendly great stuff.

Love the vids nick, you're the first vlogger I've seen that also likes to persue the crazy adventures. Keep it up, your videos have given me a lot of inspiration for destinations I've never previously thought about visiting

The kids asking you pls record me in your video lol they are so innocents.

Now this ain't no Instaglam nomad.

Your videos have been giving me the travel bug! I’ve been on a non stop binge of all your videos and so far this has got to be one of my favorites. Keep up the good work I really enjoy your content! 👍🏼😊

I have loved your videos on Ethiopia! I really enjoy seeing all the kids you meet. I'm also very excited to see your videos in South America since I've been to Chile and Argentina twice. Safe Travels!

GOD BLESS Ethiopia 🙏🏼💚💛❤️ l respect our ETHIOPIA and respect our 💚💛❤️🙏🏼thank you 🙏🏼

I just love to follow you in your journeys, and you give me such a good vibe. Awesome Ethiopia!!

Most foreigners, westerner or not tend to make Ethiopia look awful or depressing. I like that you did not condescend nor hide/flaunt occurrences, you presented your experience and the country as it was. Thanks and nice video, hopefully next time you visit Ethiopia the country would more efficient.

Wow. So much lush green. For some reason i had an image in my head that it was all steppes and desert. And such an interesting trip. I'm very happy that i found your channel and grateful that you share these amazing experiences with us!

Thank you for you visited my country Ethiopia. It is one of the most beautiful and historical place and it is my dad birth place Gonder. I hope you had such a nice time. God bless Ethiopia!!!

Great vlog! Love that you are going right out of the way to places much less travelled! Makes for interesting content and the people look lovely and so friendly! Thanks for sharing!

Thankyou nick! Every day I watch one of your videos I feel so much better about life. I know it crazy, but you see the world as it ;should be seen, not from a tour bus (usually) but walking as much as you can....I love to walk, I see things that most people never see just driving a car or riding a train. :)

Indigo Traveller, My favorite stone is Lapis Lazuli, I am so proud of you, handsome blue eyed man, for visiting these places, so humble and kind to people with skin like mine. Bless your sweet soul. xxx-

I have loved my travels to Ethiopia. Beautiful people as if they should be walking a catwalk in Milan. The people are so friendly and curious. The food is amazing. I have traveled to 96 countries, most of them more than once. Ethiopia stands out as one of my favorites.

Super video, looks like an amazing country, would be cool to see the Ethiopian coffee :)

This land has one of the greatest history on earth.Oldest government, first coffee plant human found and it deserve a visit before dying.

Best video you’ve done in a while that...nice one

dude lol your adventurousness is amazing , looks like you went there with no prior plans and you took it very well , am really happy you got to see them mountains, stay blessed

Hey man really love your videos! I also travel a lot and for me one of the best things I ever bought was a self printing camera. It's so nice to actually give the Foto to the people and keep a digital copy.

Wow! Amazing! 👌🏼👌🏼. One of your best vlogs ever

You seems very humble and curious, im glad you showing the good side of Africa and not the deception media always shows.

I love binging on these videos in school holidays haha. It's so intriguing to watch your travels, opens my eyes to the wider world :) if you ever come to Perth, Australia please do a meet up!!

That little kid was super cute!! The places are cool but for me what makes the trip is always the people you meet! Wonderful :)

Am Proud Ethiopian 🇪🇹🇪🇹❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽

go to the east Harar and Diredawa you would love it.

Lol your interactions with the locals is great, it seems so much fun

Thanks Nick. Thoroughly enjoyed that. Part of my heart is in Ethiopia. Safe travels mate.

Love how you show us all the african countries you have visited so far, it makes me feel I am right next to you experiencing it all, thanks a lot for that 👍. Is Ghana on your list ? I really hope so, it offers so much to a foreign eye in so many different aspects... Having lived there several years I definitely vouch for it !

good afternoon good evening and good night lol, thanks for alot of videos and being epic.. take care...

I recent found your channel and have been binge watching your stuff. The SpongeBob edits in this video really put it on another level 😂 but seriously this is awesome you’re a great film maker

Excellent footage and editing!!!! I found your video by looking up rural western cities in Ethiopia as I know absolutely nothing about the place. My brother is on his way from the USA to this area at the moment and I am trying to learn a little bit about where he's going.

Great vid Nick Ethiopia looks 👌

Ethiopian people live very simple and happy. The things haven't changed for long because Ethiopians don't mind it. What is it high rise 70 story building condo and BMW if you don't have a healthy life? We all know every single person in Europe and America is dosed with some shit antipsychotic drug or have to drink alcohol or smoke weed to just socialize or live. Some people live simple life very happy stress free. Some people live luxurious life and commit suicide. Which one is better? Well everybody knows what they want. But I envy Ethiopian people for the way they live. I'm going there this month and stay all winter there. And if I like it I will add next winter to it and come back on 2020....

I was in Ethiopia during the summer to visit family and didn't really stay long to really see the sights. Your volg made me quite nostalgic. It was great!

Woow thank u to visiting Ethio from Eritrea living in europ
