Lebanon is probably my favorite country ever. I’m not Lebanese, but I’ve had the privilege to study in Beirut for two years and I had an unforgettable experience there. The Lebanese people certainly are the most fun and friendly in the Middle East.
But Lebanon is not in africa it's in the middle east and part of west asia actually, look it up on the map, and the people there are mostly with white skintones because of the freezing and snowy weather especially in mountains
Lebanon is beautiful in war and out of war its like heaven everyone tryna ignore the news and enjoy going to religious places like harisa and many more hidden in these mountains. im so happy that u visited Lebanon during war, and btw welcome to Lebanon.❤️❤️❤️🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧
Glad you could see the good side of Lebanon. As a Lebanese working in the US, I keep hearing about the negatives in the news and it often comes from those who never visited Lebanon or seen the beauty of that country. So it's always a pleasure to see foreigners visiting the country for the first time and sharing their good experience.
I appreciate you for visiting my country and for your hosting friends for showing you the real picture of Lebanon. I'm glad you saw that and hopefully the good times will be back. Peace for all!
Waw!! As a lebanese, I was submerged with joy and happiness while watching your video. I'm happy that you've enjoyed it!! Showing Lebanon from your point of view was just amazing.
Thank you Richard, Lebanon is my favorite country in the world. And you made a different Lebanon video, I watched it carefully. It was a very nice video. Greetings from Istanbul.
Wonderful video to watch about Lebanon 😊, especially at this time and what they are doing to this country. Thanks so much Richard! Great storytelling and editing (feel jealous 🙂)
I am sick of foreigners think Lebanon is just a poor country in the middle of a desert with terrorism attacks, bombing and bad economy. But if they could see the real true beauty of Lebanon with our beautiful cultures, people, places and most of the lifestyle because us Lebanese don't worry a lot but instead we live life. I love my country of Lebanon and Inshallah it will come back to its former glory.
TBH my favorite country in the region, kinda sad what hezbollah doing to you there. You are a poor country now, it doesn't mean all of you are sad haha. Still A beautiful country wish i could visit, this time without uniform. especially when its 4km from me 🤣
Wow, you did an incredible job showcasing how beautiful Lebanon truly is. We love our country and so glad you got to enjoy it. Also, your voice is so soothing and perfect!
Wow amazing video, thank you brother. I am Lebanese born in Australia. We visit every year, there is no place like Lebanon. Our resilience and love for life is unmatched. Great footage and commentary 👌🤍
Thank you so much for this video..... one of the best videos ( if not the best) of Lebanon and the Lebanese people. EVERYTHING is beautiful and has healing powers in Lebanon. God Bless Lebanon 🇱🇧 ❤
Hola. Yo tambien soy de origen libanes. Hace tres anos, estoy intentando aprender Espanol por internet. Me gusta mucho tratar de traducir las palabras de su idioma. "Mi lindo pais, libano, la voz me hace falta, estamos volviendo a casa." Adios
Great values on display in your informative video👏🏽 - Perseverance! Hospitality! Hope! Pride of Nation! Thanks for showcasing the history, rich culture, sights and sounds of a beautifully scenic country. Let global peace reign!!! ❤
Wow, thank you for this great movie and impressions of this beautiful country and its people. That made my heart cry, I would love to visit lebanon one day ❤🙏
Lebanon is facing a big media war since long time because he is the most beautiful arabic coutry for tourism. Every summer they are doing this media war and in fact the real situation is very different from what they are showing. God bless lebanon
Thanks sir for showing the bright side of the country and the resilience of the people despite everything going on. We know very well that there is a severe shortage of basic services (Modern transportation, electircity, WIFI; traffic lights etc), but the general situation now does not allow for anything better. We hope that the situation will improve in the future. Thanks and welcome to Lebanon 💚🙏
What a stunning video! You have done a wonderful job encapsulating Lebanon's beauty while shedding light on the struggles the Lebanese have had to navigate. Glad you experienced the boundless kindness and unwavering liveliness of the Lebanese. [ Love that you mentioned the fruit; they really are incredibly delicious in Lebanon! ]
I'm from Aotearoa, New Zealand. My great-grandmother was Lebanese and I always have felt a strong affinity with her from the stories I was told, but my knowledge of this part of my cultural heritage is limited. So I am grateful for videos like this to find a sense of connection with my ancestors and living relatives, especially amidst the extreme hardships they have and continue to endure with such strength and kindness - šukran ktīr.
This was an amazing insight into the resilient nature of the spirit of Lebanon. And im here by chance. Always intrigued by the cultures of the world and seeing a vibe of victory over conflict and potential devastation is truly inspiring. and still very timely and up to date.
As a Lebanese, I can't describe how grateful I am for your video. People often contemplate the negative side of this majestic country, ignoring the true beauty hidden in the land and people. We are often preserved as a primitive country, with an outlandish desire for war, yet the opposite is true, as we adore living and strive toward peace. Words can't sum up my gratitude, thank you so much❤
Welcome to our 🇱🇧 That’s wonderful to hear good thing about my country from a tourist ( you ) I appreciate your time For this amazing video . I hope you enjoyed your friend s wedding in Lebanon , oh lala they always celebrate big @ wedding as you attended one , you know . Arrive safely back home then .
The Greek historian Herodotus says of our ancestors the Phoenicians "They circumnavigated Africa in three years" Able to get rich without firing a shot.
Last week, like many other Lebanese who had decided to spend summer in Lebanon, we were faced with an ugly situation. Do we leave? we have children, is it wiser to leave? what if we get stuck there? What if there is a war? will my children get traumatised and not want to go back to Lebanon? But what if nothing happens? What if it is more talk than anything? My family… I haven’t gotten enough of them, my home, my Lebanon, we are meant to be there for another 3 weeks, ? My grandma… After a lot of back and forth, we decided to leave with a very heavy heart. I cried for 48 hours straight; I cried for all the pain that we as Lebanese have had to endure since I can remember. I cried for the injustice of it all. I cried for my family, I cried for the ones in Lebanon who have had to deal with so much trauma, I cried hoping that I will be able to return soon, I cried thinking of all the children of war. With everything that the world has been able to cancel, how are wars still a thing in 2024?? While I am so grateful to have a roof above my head and to live in safety (a basic human right), I, like every other Lebanese across the world, feel a strong sense of longing, I like every other Lebanese hold on to the beautiful memories, to the hope of a brighter future, to the moment I will step foot back in our beautiful country. Being a child of the Middle East is knowing all too well what this feels like 💔
You're welcomed ❤❤ as a Lebanese I am also shocked as u watching our people living life no matter what's going on And I like the way u r showing the real image of this country really appreciate that God protect u 🙏 ❤
YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although Lebanon is currently going through a lot in terms of political situations like the Israel-Gaza War, and the media and governmental travel advisories describe Lebanon as a 'no-go zone', I am happy to hear that it is just like how it always was before October 2023. Beirut is a beautiful city and I wish for peace in the Middle East and to not let the media emphasise political madness in such beautiful countries.
Wow! What a beautiful country, I learned so much from this video and have added Lebanon to my list of countries to visit. The delicious fruit sold me by itself! Also love the vlogging style of this video, Rich! Can’t wait to see where you jet off to next 😊
How lovely! Are you Lebanese? I'm from California, living in Egypt, and I'm planning to come to Beirut next week inshallah to check out the American University of Beirut. I'm not sure if I should go right now - who knows what the next weeks will bring - but I imagine it's only going to get worse for the next several months, unfortunately. What do you think? News and threats aside, how is it feeling in Beirut right now?
@@nevenali7593 Oh how nice, hope you like living in NY. I'm enjoying living in Egypt, but many of my Egyptian friends have left to find more opportunities elsewhere.
Thanks Brother Rich well done. Eh.. I heard a Lebanese broder dae talk pidgin language, and dae chop e sweeto. Me na Lebanese born in Sierra Leone and I have many Nigerian friends. Well done
Tbh, since I returned to Lebanon in late August, I have never heard anything or something resembling a sound barrier here in Sidon (Saida). There were a lot of sound barriers in July, but in August, it felt like there was no tension in saida. I love the country for many reasons, even if i know most of its problems, coming from a Palestinian Lebanese.
Islam can make a stronger statement than war. Lebanon was known around the world as the CEDARS OF LEBANON MAKE LEBANON A GARDEN with geometrical outdoor sculptures, proclaim peace and neutrality and find people men and women devoted to honesty to lead the way. 🙏🇱🇧 🙏
