I was in the Gambia some years ago. I liked it very much. Very nice people, lot of reggae music and you can hear the adhan (islamic call to prayer) five times a day all over town.
My Country Gambia 🇬🇲 Is Likkle Jamaica 🇯🇲 We Love Our Jamaican Brothers And Sisters 🙏🏿🖤 Karla Is Definitely Enjoying...Murphy You Are Welcome To Gambia, It's Your Home Brother... 🙏🏿🖤
🇯🇲 Nice interview Kay: very eloquent with anecdotes & generalized issues. However, doesn't react well to constructive analysis on her Utube channel. Can be rather unforgiving when her mistakes are pin-pointed & repulsed by any & every opposing views. Wish her well on her journey to maturity.
🇯🇲 Gambia, "Little Jamaica", the smallest country in Africa is appro 3 % bigger than Jamaica. Gambians, nothing but utter love & respect for yard people. Much love to all for their peaceful election & transfer of power.....Jamaica love.
Karla is right am a gambian but the love we have for jamaicans is endless. And we had almost all the biggest names in reggae always coming to The Gambia 🇬🇲
Sounds like “little JA” , glad Klara enjoys living in Gambia loving the availability of JA food in the many restaurants. Respect to Gambians for embracing Jamaicans.
When I first went Gambia if you close your eyes and land in certain areas in the Gambia you will think you are in Jamaica. Music, dreadlocks even people speaking patois. She is 💯 in her descriptions
Koala nut is Bizzy in Jamaica. We use it for tea and to treat poison in Jamaica. Bizzy tea with condensed milk and a little nutmeg is really good. I am old school Jamaican. 🇯🇲🇨🇦💞
It's a pleasure to watch this beautiful 🤩 content about the Gambia 🇬🇲.As a Gambian I feel very honored to hear good things been said to the country.I personal love Jamaica 🇯🇲 people and the Music as well.Love Channel keep it up great 👍
Welcome home all Jamaican posse out there we as gambians always love and adore Jamaicans ...as a reggae loving country we always admired and love the Jamaican lifestyle and people
Carla is now a Gambian i follow her programs always. We are surrounded on three sides by Senegal except the Atlantic ocean. The country is divided on both banks by the River Gambia. Mangoes are grafted with other varieties. The most popular one is called"Jurr" very sweet and juicy. Colanuts are found only in West Africa, every ceremony is composed of it. In Mandinka is like " Fo Soma" Wollof is " Be aleck" Fula" Ha jango" that's the equivalent of bye.

Another interesting interview Xavier. Karla seems to be interacting very well with the people considering that she has only only moved there in 2020. Didn't realise that the Gambians were such a lovely bunch. Gambia is now on my bucket list.
@Xavier it would be very interesting if youcan interview one Jamaican couples living in the Gambia with their success story . The goes by the name AP&QUEEN JODI. One love
I am a black South African and enjoy this program. As an African, I urge our people to accept our distant cousins and help them to resettle back in the mother land as long as a person is comfortable in an African country. We shall had helped them in our reunification. We in S.A. follow suit.
All i can add is av seen a video of the gambia and its luv towards jamaica plus its good to know ware as a black jamaican we know wat country in black africa we come fram .nice video too
Cola nut is yes as a sigh of respect. It is presented to respectable people as a sign of appreciation or honor. For instance if you’re seeking a hand of marriage to a girl, you present it to your in-laws, it can also be presented to Alkalo (village heads) when they offer you a land, maybe at cheaper prices. In the past many people got lands from village/town by just presenting cola nuts to the Alkalo as token of appreciation. Cola nut contains caffeine so Many elders eat it daily. My mum for instance. It’ taste bitter tho.
Hi Karla, great interview. I had a eureka moment when you said the Kola/Cola nut is called Bissy in Jamaica. For many years, a friend has been trying to get me to drink Bissy tea, but I've always refused. I've apologized to her because Bissy tea will now be a part of my routine. Thanks. 👍😃
Positive energy good conversation and well said. Am a Gambian Dutch. Me love dat girl. Respect to my broader. You 2 done good things. Love to catch yah later. Bless 🙌
Good interview, would love to visit. "Bissy" is good for bad stomach, or if you think you may have eaten something that will upset the stomach. My Mom used to make the tea sometimes, and unlike Cerassie, it does not taste unpleasant.
Many African countties uses kola nut, i first saw it in the nigerian shows. I drink it alot here in Jamaica its boiled with coconut juice, cinnamon leaves or pimento leaves and nutmeg. It can also be drink without milk 🇯🇲🇯🇲
Another informative video. I live in Grenada and I know a neighbour who is Muslim who moved there. I was surprised he moved there but hearing now there's a drive to move there. Sounds like an interesting place.
She say the truth me since am young I start listening reggae and dancehall music and every month I download new reggae and dancehall mix tape in the Gambia man 95% are listening reggae and dancehall music that's why many Jamaican musician's star visits the Gambia 🇬🇲
So there is s youtube video showing that in the gambia they av an island offshote in gambia the name that island jamaica.plus in gambia they av big soundsystems dat plays our jamaican muzik plus they av dancehall ware u go hang out and listen to our muzik on they soyndsystems plus lots of gambians walk like how we swag walk in jamwan they talk our pateah language too so they claim us jamaicans pretty cool stuff i think one likkle island big impact on the planet too
thieboudienne aka jolof rice is a senegalese dish from saint louis. Its our national dish gambians are trying to dissociate it from jolof by calling it benachin. It’s the same dish originating in Senegal where we also call it benechin. I repeat THIEBOUDIENNE and BENACHIN are the SAME dish from SAINT LOUIS SENEGAL. Respect our food.

Most of the Black American and Jamaican or South America DNA have more Ghana,Nigeria, Congo, Benin and Cameroon. Very low percentage of them have Gambia, senegal and Mali because most of the population are inland
Please do not use the word "TRIBE" this word is used to Degrade the people of africa, the various people were "NATIONS" so the people are ethnic groups, and Africans are of various ethnic groups.
