Thanks for watching!
Mohammad Ali seems like the friendliest dude. Would love to just sit with him, have tea, and talk about life ☕️
Definitely a legend!
@@IndigoTraveller Did you realize he could only see you with his right eye? I've been an Eye Technician for 17 years.
I feel like this about so many people
I am man, thanks!
Ahahah. He did serve every deserving one with his special tea mix.
As a Libyan citizen, I like to welcome all guests from all over the world when the country is stable and peace prevails
🧡
I worked in Libya for two years my most lasting memory is that the people were wonderful, down to earth and always positive, I hope it all turns around and and the prosperity you all deserve arrives
Thanks Steve 😊it's nice from you say that 🙂⚘
Thank you very much! ☺️
@Travel Xplorer replying cause I also wanna know
The gentleman that said "Better today than yesterday and better tommorow than today" was ooozing positivity. The world would a better place if we all thought like him.
Nothing would get done
we ( western society ) already tired that remember ... during 60/70/80/90 if anyone would try to say something bad about how THINGS work , the immediate response would be " don't think about it / you worry to much / you are very pessimist & negative / don't think about this things / try to be happy " well this is were we ended up by " not thinking about it " ... Problems don't just solve themselves , it would be great if they did. It is good when people criticise because the people who do criticise have really though about that they are complaining about and often means that they have also found another , More Efficient Way , of doing the thing that they are complaining about. So people who criticise , are offering another alternative way , and in the mean time , there are people like you who think " let's just hope that tomorrow will be better " . But tomorrow will not be better , if we keep doing the same shit that got us into this problems. Tomorrow will not be better just because we want it to be better , we have to do better to hope for better, you know like the most logic thing in the universe. The most dangerous people on earth are Empty Positives , who want better but refuse to do better
yeah ☹
"Word is getting around that a tourist is in town..."
You know you're off the beaten path when just showing up gets people excited 😂
killing a foreigner affects such countries' image and foreign relations. he could get easily killed and they're just protecting him, cuz it's Libya.
@Victor Was going to comment much the same thing - right on.
@@victorgadamba5518 well to me seem normal, even when there is a war most people remain normal and don't kill turist just because
@@jacopofolin6400 Unless the tourist is a filthy crusader
“Excited” isn’t the word I would use personally
Mohammed's house was gorgeous! The rug, the mosaics on the walls, cool glass ornaments.... Hippy Heaven
right?i was shook how beautiful it is!
Agreed, it was lovely.
How is it that corporate media can’t find one Indigo Traveler?
Because you keep moving away from the mic to breathe
What's up checkmark?
They are all bought and corrupt
Is nobody gonna mention that TayZonday casually commentating on this video
Chocolate rainnnnnnn ❤️
I really appreciate this as a Libyan. It may be difficult now but when the situation in Libya improves day by day it will be a much better experience if you plan on revisiting.
Thank you, Amir. It was a great day and I love Libyan people :)
Muhammad Ali's living room was so gorgeous how cool to be with him there just talking and absorbing all you can! ❤
awww💗
traveller with a camera does better than 99% of journalists. Great job Nick, you are one of a kind
The journalists that are allowed in arent real journalists
You think US has journalism? LOL
@@billiamc1969 the sad truth, but there is some. Not mainstream of course, but Luke from WeareChange is an amazing journalist. He confronted many elites like Rothschild and Henry Kissinger on camera, made them sweat bullets.
@@billiamc1969 The US Media is fake news.
I forgot I was watching RUclips travel vlog and thought I was watching a journalism piece for a second, very interesting and nicely done
Thank you, Ed! Much appreciation!
That's because Vice clips & general news were included, and Libya is inherently a political story regardless of what angle you look at it. It's bound to, you can't have Libya content without the story. It would be like putting blinders on a horse and pretending the elephant in the room isn't there lol. It's definitely quality content, Nick is a great videographer!
Exactly my though. Independent on site journalism at it's finest about the things that matter. Nick has just sort of evolved that way naturally from the beginning it seems. Love it!
I would love to sit and talk with Mohammad and hear all of his stories. Great video! Hugs from Norway!
Thanks, Leeah! A legend he is!
Hope you follow your countryman Haraldooo👍
I’ve followed you for a few years and I love your channel. I think about you and your safety when I’m not watching or when there isn’t an upload. I pray for you and hope you are safe and enjoying your travels. Thank you for giving us such amazing thought provoking content. 🙏🏾❤️
Once again forgotten by the mainstream media indigo traveler brings us a marvelous story!
Thank you Caner!
He's way better then any mainstream documentary channel...
He has almost 1M subs and it's on RUclips. That's pretty mainstream.
@@jimmysmits6255 mainstream means that you're not free to do your content. Mainstream corporation

Nobody shows Libya clearly and deep as u show! Greetings to Libyan people from India 🇮🇳
Appreciate that, love to India!
We Libyans love India too
@@ryan123dean1 i am from India i love libiya 💚
Actually he is not showing Libya yet. That’s the desert. There is barely any Libyans in the desert. Most Libyans live in the cities, north of Libya.

Hey Nick :) my name is Alaa, I am a 26 years old Libyan living in Tripoli, I'm so happy to see your effort to try to shed a light on the current situation of our country, and debunk some of the fear created by the media's portrayal of the situation, and partly based of recent history events as well. To shed a light on some of the thoughts that were going through your head in the video, Ghdames is a historical/nature tourism destination, the city is mostly empty because of the current weather ( simply this isn't the prime season to visit it ) , Also the police watching you closely is truly for your safety, unfortunately we still have a parley there legal system and the last thing any of us want is a foreigner being endangered by armed groups or even random acts of ignorantly hate attacks, anyway, if you are still in the city and you find your self interested in getting more local and youthful perspectives, please feel free to contact me and I'm sure we can work something out :)
Great hi, Alaa, read your comment today and felt very very nice.
Love how he loves the Scottish rather than the English, most people around the world agree with him about that statement 💚💯🙏🏻
He said Scottish people were friendlier, not that he loved them more. You shouldn’t put words in his mouth.
Real eye opening stuff! Last person I watched traveling over this much was Anthony Bourdain. I treasured him and I miss him. Huge compliment. I plan on binging your entire channel. Much love and respect from 🇺🇸🌎❤.
That means a lot, thank you very much!
This has quickly become one of my favourite youtube channels. I love the take on showing the reality of life and not just the tourism side, BUT with no bias. Thank you for sharing these countries with us!
Thank you vey much, that does mean a lot to me, all the best. Nick
@@IndigoTravelleri just found you and I’m so fascinated! Safe travels!
Muhammed Ali really floats like a butterfly with his eloquence and stings like a bee with his truth.
As Ghanaian Libya looks like home and I can’t wait to see Libya great again 🤲🏾
Thank you ❤️
how’s it home for you if you’re Ghanaian
@@shukriiii I didn’t say Libya is my home.
Not gonna lie the desert sceneries are breathtaking. The only downside is the scorching heat.
Agreed, double edged sword but overall spectacular :)
I was in Tucson Arizona last week and it was 42c Hot Air Blowing in from the Sonoran Desert all day but the Mornings and late Nights it Cools Down
nice pic bro
Atleast its dry heat
I thank you as a Libyan for showing the truth about my country.
That means a lot, thank you for having me in your country!
@@IndigoTraveller happy to have you
@Bill Blaze thug life baby
Do u live in Libya rn cuz I always wanted to talk to libyan and get to know them maybe talk about the current situation there! Btw love from Pakistan🇵🇰 ❤🇱🇾
Hi, firstly yes I do live in Libya and secondly, the situation is simple so I will say: 1:in summer 12-hour power outages and in winter 2-6 hours because of hot weather and stealing of natural resources, 2: Extreme corruption in the government and for everything else too. 3:wars because countries like Saudi Arabia,USA,
and Russia are fuelling wars like in 2019 that's enough for now.
Thank you for showcasing the beauty of this world throughout the pandemic! The work you're doing Nick isn't going unnoticed! I haven't been able to travel to see my family in Italy for 2 years because of Covid, I often get depressed and cry over it, but your videos give me optimism for the future and keep me going! Great work
@@sherifdzn6523 tbh the UK and America are to blame for alot of the Middle East's woes
It’s true I’m in Ghadamis and it’s very safety 🇱🇾
I’m American Iraqi, my grandparents live in Libya and I visited them using my Iraqi passport last summer, I faced absolutely no policing or any form of extreme control. I’d say you might be facing this due to these people’s fear of westerns. Western governments literally ruined their country and had been stealing it’s wealth for more than a decade now. And since they just formed their government, I assume they’re trying to not fail due to Americans and Europeans one more time.
I agree
True
It wasn't western governments. It was turkey and Russia tf you talking about. The west had to intervene as it's IN OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD? You think NATO or southern Europe wouldn't occupy temporarily Algeria if collapse?
The people killed Gaddafi. He was corrupt and murdered by his people. There is no evidence the west wanted it. We bought oil from Libya and maintained that stability. Just because the west picked a side
@@TheMagicJIZZ - If I remember well, I think it went down hill when gaddafi tried to unite South America and Africa against the west to rival NATO
@@elmo319 Lmao 🤣 people believe such bullshit
"Scotland more friendly than English"
This man wants to start a bloody war in the comments
hahahaha
Hahaha..he's not far wrong though!
True though. Heard many English say the further north you travel the friendlier it gets.
seriously, he is right...
@@AzderielBane That only applies within England though and as someone from the South East, we're as nice as they come within the 🇬🇧
Great videos ! I lived in Libya one year before the revolution and fled when it was actually happening from the east side to Egypt. I will never forget and seeing Libya makes me really emotional
I´m loving this Lybia series! The night view of the hotel looks beatiful
my mom used to live in libya sometime in the mid 1980’s. she doesn’t remember much but she remembers there was many nice people and lived relatively peacefully. my grandpa (who brought my family there because he was working there) is still alive but for some odd reason he doesn’t like to talk about libya. i’ve made up my own theories about why he doesn’t talk about it, but really i don’t think i’ll ever know. love from turkey 🇹🇷
Try to find out what happened to your grand father so the history doesn't get lost 🙏🏾
If he speak it will be a very interesting story
I'm currently based in Libya. Last spring break, my colleagues, whom are all foreign teacher from all sorts of continent had a great time with their visit in Gadames. (I wish I was there too but I went to spend my break outside.)
Here in Tripoli, security police and militias are a lot less compared 2 years ago.
Shops are opened and everything are back in business. We drive and walk in Tripoli especially in Madina, the city center and I never encountered anyone asking us about anything except hospitality and people asking where are we from and after that, they will say be very happy to say welcome to Libya.
They're happy seeing foreigners here. Mainly because most of them went out during the war. So few are still working here but it's not a common sight.
So, in summary, you still find good places here but are mainly found in Tripoli and other major cities. But outside Tripoli, there are some peaceful places and some are not. It's just a matter of choosing where to go and knowing the limits plus the dangers of places you're trying to visit.
I hope you try to share the nice shops and places in the city centers. They're far than what I expected in a country torn by civil war. That's for sure.
Welcome to libya and your welcome at my store in Tripoli any time ❤️
Thank you for sharing that perspective! How are the coastal areas and cities east of Tripoli? I have always been interested in seeing Cyrenaica and the ruins there.
@@gazalyel1566 thanks. I wish to visit your shop one day.
@@Cat-Washing-ton I really adore the Roman ruins. I wish I could visit them this summer.

I loved this video. You're videos are wonderful, you're one of my favorite youtubers and give me ideas for places to visit and things to see and do. The fact you interact with the locals is the best and makes me want to have more interactions as well. Thanks so much!!!
Wow, Nick. Another great video bro. Seems like Libya will be a great place to visit and vacation. Your hosts seem very nice and genuine.
Man, seeing Ghadames again is just surreal, i haven't been able to visit it since 2013 even thou I'm a Libyan living in Libya!
*Do i feel secure and safe?* To a certain point now? Yes, but financially I'm not feeling safe, at 32 years i managed to fully own a house only to be bombed and torn apart by the latest war in Tripoli 2019-2020, got carjacked, got assaulted on numerous occasions. It's just a mess no thanks to Hillary of course.
But even with that the country is freaking beautiful!!!
Thank you for your words, yes, there are so many beautiful aspects to Libya, thank you for having me in your country. Sorry for the hardships you have faced. Sounds horrific.
Regrowth and rebuilding and fait in national identity takes time and if you can't do things on a large scale than just try your best every day to day in small ways ya know? Not trying to lecture just said to see happen to one of the most beautiful locations on the earth and to where we have been as a species in the past and how geopolitics are now in the present and will be in the near future. Changing times and uncertain times indeed but I have faith in the best in humanity and the power and everlasting changing of the universe that we have better days to see as a whole even if it's hard to see at times. Much love.
@Alejandro Brunner Hillary Bill Clinton Obama and Biden all have more than enough money between them to rebuild it. Understand many Americans were completely against the uncautious and incompetent way things were handled in Libya and oppose it and whatever was done was not of the fault of many Americans and in no way could be prevented by many. Those 4 on the other hand continue to this day the perpetual mistakes and selfish acts the resulted in many of the sorts of things that harm Americans and Libyans and humans as a whole and alike. It's politicians and warlord war profiteers like them and Gaddafi was as well. Don't forget what the people did to him as well. These are the ones at fault. Power wielders drunk on power and decadence. They are the poison to the modern world.
So sorry to hear of your experiences... I will keep you in my prayers ... Hillary should be put under a prison for crimes against humanity... as an American, most of us do not support these lawless criminal politicians... I hope better things come your way friend ...
Thankfully now we have Biden to pick up where the Clintons left
As a Libyan I’ll tell you the reason you’re constantly being followed is totally for your safety as you noticed almost to no tourist visit Libya currently therefore when word spreads that a foreigner is there especially a western some will presume that your well off which can bring unwanted attention such as theft or kidnapping especially in remote areas in the south, and great video bdw!
My ex was a Libyan from Zuwarah. He used to tell me loads of stories. Foreigners like myself Wont be able go settle down there.
He also had alot of bruisers on his back, tortured or whipped i couldnt understand him.
@@ginarozario8945 where are you from?
@@childmandude4390 im from Malaysia. A few years ago there was alot of Libyan boy who came to Malaysia to further their studies. 😁
It is difficult to steal a guest in Libya. Tourists to Libya in the summer go to marine parks and villages. In the spring and winter they go for a walk in the south

My housemate when I was in my first job in London was from Libya. I travelled to Libya with him in 2004; had a great time. Security fears were not a thing- all I came back with were good memories which stay with me even now. 13 years later, in 2017 I travelled to Tripoli for a business meeting; flew in and out the same day but they were possibly the most tense few hours of my life. It's good to see you took the time and chance to visit the country and share your perspective with the rest of us. Doesn't feel like the country is ready for tourism (long way from it) and especially in this post COVID world. But I hope to get back when conditions allow.
I’m learning so much, I really appreciate the work that went into this
Thank you!
Lol Hillary saying “we saved lives” is hilarious af
She mean we killed more people than Gaddafi
I mean...by a no fly zone they did protect libyans from gadafi air force. But then ...they quickly turned against the libyans
Gaddafi had already lost Cyrenaica to the rebels when the west intervened.
Without the intervention there still would have been a civil war with either the rebels still winning or Gaddafi retaking cyrenaica and massacring the rebels
@@argosime Cyrenaica is under Putin's role now

Thank you for showing this beautiful country! You are doing a great job documenting this trip even though it's harder to talk to folks. I've still learned alot about a place I've only heard bad things about. I hope it continues to get better for the folks of Libya. Stay safe!
@@sherifdzn6523 thank you for your insight, I just want to understand. I know western media is definitely not the place to go for good information and I know, just like anywhere in the world that there are good people there just trying to make it through life.
@@sherifdzn6523 this is way overblown. It’s not even a fraction as bad as you make it sound. Not a bit. -reporting from Tripoli.

The homes your visited ....I love the ornate decorations on the walls and colourful rugs !
As usual, you find very interesting people to talk to.
Thankyou
Thank you, Heather, beautiful indeed!
Last week was intense but so fascinating 😍. Getting ready for round 2. Great great job! Brave videos as usual 😍
Thank you for watching as always!
I’m loving this story. I had an antique shop in Alaska so this episode was that much better. Thanks again for your effort and courage. Libya. Even in my dreams I never thought I would see it.
😅why
Mostly due to my age (70) and having Parkinson’s disease. It makes getting from place to place very difficult.
Four years or so ago I was subscribed to many travel vloggers. You, Indigo Traveler, are the only travel channel I still follow to date. Your content is top shelf. Keep up the great work.
I hope I see a Libya open to tourism in my lifetime. There is something special about the vibe I get from these videos; just seems like such a beautiful, mysterious place. Great stuff as always.
1000%! Hopefully things improve and tourism can flourish
To many in Africa , Gaddafi was seen in a good light. He wanted to unite all the African States into the United States of Africa.. and to many in Ghana and elsewhere, Libya had lot of jobs for them and they could bring a lot of money back to their home countries. Sad to see it looks this . Hopefully it gets better
now they can still go to Libya and be sold for little money
@@tkautzor that is only the distraction
@@tkautzor, Gaddafi was not a saint but, at least, he held his country together!! If you’re so desirous of blaming anyone, blame the Western countries who bombed and encouraged the breakup of the country only to walk away when Libya needed help most!! It is NOT a secret that the US and her allies are responsible for Libya’s current situation. Don’t blame other Africans who previously went to Libya to find work. For all his mistakes and his cruelty, Gaddafi’s Libya was and is better than today’s Libya of war, bombs, murders, suspicions, kidnapping, etc, The Libyan situation following the uprising against Gaddafi, could’ve been handled differently to preserve and hold the country together whilst seeing to the overthrow of Gaddafi. Instead, those who encouraged and started wars in the country thought they were helping the Libyan people get rid of Gaddafi!! See where that got them! During Gaddafi’s era, NO ONE was sold or bought as a slave - that NEVER happened under Gaddafi and he certainly would NEVER, EVER have allowed that to happen!!! So, get your comments straight.
@@lordshango4184 More than just the Libya conflict in Africa have been attributed to other nations toying with power in another continent, pretty writhe all through out Africa, with even examples like England who essentially precipitated the ethnic conflicts in East Africa when they split the Azande people into principalities. I'm not going to say Gaddafi was a good leader, but I think it's important for individuals to understand that countries like the USA for instance aren't the "divine protectors" in circumstances like these, they do a great job of making themselves appear so however.
Worked in Liberia late 70's and Libya had a presence there. Even had Ellen Johnson Sirleaf working for their local company at the time. Of course it all went pear shaped in April 1980 with the Samuel K Doe takeover leading to decades of pain.
amazing to see this, my wife and I visited Libya in 2007 and our itinerary followed much of your trip - it was an amazing place to visit and surely will be again one day
I remember watching this video after my mum's funeral and all i can say is that watching these videos helped me calm me down after a really long day. Please continue uploading them.
Hope Libyans tide over this phase and prosperity returns.
Indigo. You do amazing work my man. Stay safe out there. 🙏
Thank you, Mike!
We appreciate everything that you are showing us, thank you very much, greetings from Maui, Hawaii.
I would like to visit Libya some day, it looks beautiful. I am personally a fan of deserts, the silence you can have there is one that has a magic to it. Those of faith could say it brings them closest to the spirit. That kind of magic.
Welcome to Libya 🇱🇾 Libya is a beautiful country. There are many, many seas, mountains, deserts, monuments, one culture and one religion, but he did not focus much on this aspect.
You are spot on. I'm Libyan my self. Being from Tripoli, I've only been to the desert once. But I have to say, that silence was one of the most peaceful experiences ever.
Wow I am in awe of the house u went into in that old town 😍 so much beauty and history . Thank you for sharing!!
Not random at all Nick, this was as enjoyable as always. Thanks for the effort and great work. Stay safe, my friend.
Your vids and channel deserve millions of views! Great content

I like that you give us a view into the life of people in places we don't normally get to see. Thank you for broadening our horizon!
Thank you Nick for all you do. Really appreciate it. Especially when its not easy to film things in places like Libya. Its a shame really that some countries are so restricted.
That guy had a great memorabilia collection…I love how history can be traced by collections like that. Great video as usual.
Totally, beautiful collection with 1000s of stories behind it. Thank you for watching :)

You should definitely go to the ancient city of Sebrstha, which is a really beautiful ancient city from the Roman times. It’s like 6 hours drive from Gadamis, but then it’s just like only 1.5 hours drive to Tripoli.
2010 the first time I knew much about this beautiful country. I have some friends here who got scholarship there. And from their witnesses, I can easily sum up this country is freaking amazing. When I was in college around 2011, couple of time I presented Libya as my presentation topic. My lecturer and friends always amazed with my content. I also got a Libyan friend to convey exact information to support for my presentation projects. Hope Libya can raise very soon. Love from Indonesia 🇮🇩🤲
I really love your channel and the way you see things in each country you visit,since you're visiting high risk countries. 👍👍👍 for your bravery and calmness. Keep up doing great work 😊
Always love your insight into the strange and wonderful places you take us to! Hats off for some of the most interesting viewing! Love it!! Thank you Sir, 1000 thumbs up!

Damn bro, you walked all the hotel corridors just to show us. Hats off man
I think you missed the significance of what he was saying about the cigarette cartons. During the Kingdom period, the brand is literally a transliteration of "Sport" written in Arabic - like imagine the letters S B O R T written out in Arabic, so it's a transliteration not a translation. Whereas in Gaddafi's Libya it's a translation i.e. it's the actual Arabic word that means sport (riyadha in Arabic). The point is that (depending on your point of view) the Kingdom period is perhaps Anglophile/Westernophile (or pro-colonialist), and the Gaddafi period is Arabophile (or Arab Nationalist).
I was thinking along those lines, though I can't read Arabic. Gaddafi was promoting a pan-Arab movement and later on a pan-African movement.
Thanks for watching. I did understand. Did you see on the video I wrote that in writing, the significance that you are mentioning because it wasn't explained. Cheers! :)
The kingdom came right after a British administration, which was right after an italian administration... in other words, the King inherited a system that was created by westerners and the country didnt have the wealth nor time to create a new system that functions as well as the british one. Gaddafi took completely wiped the system that was in place and created a non functioning institutions
@@AyoubHD are you tapped?
@@ggiswhatitis3460 No, im just tired of people who dont know shit about my country giving their uneducated opinions on it
This is mind blowing. It seems like another world to me!! Keep up the good work!!
Mate! These are amazing eye-opening videos you're producing! Bravo to you and keep doing the good work. It makes one reflect on how self-destructive we are as a species and fail to empathize with each other's pains. This shines a light on some of the darkest shit but paradoxically the bright human spirit of never folding.
For some reason Libya seems a lot safer than some most of the places i saw in previous videos of Honduras. Maybe it's just my perception. It may be the geography or just the surrounding areas. I'm not sure cause I can't experience what's being portrayed on the video and like Nick said there are many restrictions and people are constantly watching him when he's filming.
Actually they try to safe him from being kidnapped or any other things that may happen to him.
The Hilary quotes 😵💫yikes we barely dodged that crusty old bullet
Yeah, and look who we got instead a traitor.
@@sbc383zz Biden sure is
Great stuff as always, ty!
Nick I love your documentaries!! Keep it up! You have such a kind soul as well. GOD BLESS.
"I tell you one thing ...Scotland more friendly than england" yes ...yes we are !😂
Indeed. lol
Can confirm
Welcome any time in Libya brother god bless you 🙏🏽
Really enjoyed your Libya videos so far. It's no use me saying be careful as you'll do it anyway, so instead I'll say you're brave! But I'm glad you are as it is worth watching these videos helping us connect in a way the MSM doesn't.
Nick you're an amazing lad! Been 4 years watching ur stuff. Absolute greatness. Be safe mate.
My dream as a little girl was to travel Africa, it was sad to grow up and learn that there's much turmoil on my continent. Still it's a beautiful continent, at least now I get to see it through you Nick. The thing leaders of the world don't realize is that they'll be accountable for everything they did in this life. Love from South Africa
i honestly dont want to down trod your hopes, but the Chinese are purely dismantling Africa every single minute that passes. they have have orchestrated Kenya already and are moving inland. using large loan money (billions) to buy African land and property and companies so they can back peddle profit from ports and places of international trade.
the western nations already abuse mineral resource and rare resource. reason DR congo is still in civil war for gold production.
@@Dockhead You are wrong..
@@logicmusic3208 no im not. please take your low activity brain wallah elsewhere unless you have direct proof its not the case.
this has been ongoing from the start of 2012 pretty much, but technically before that.
@@Dockhead you don't have all the technical info.. neither a technical mind.. talk about yourself and not the chinese..
@@logicmusic3208 dont ever use your inadequate brain to convince yourself of something that you have no clue about.
china is orchestrating political and financial gain EVERYWHERE.
yes and like a lot of countries do it. but most do it in legal situations, and not to this scale.
