Batswana people are people of harmony. I am Xhosa and started staying with Batswana from the age of 6. My father worked in the mines for 45 years literally around Batswana all the time. I experienced a good childhood. I don't remember any violence or bad things happening in and around the commuties i stayed in. They used to help me with my homework and i came out with a distinction (81%) on my matric certificate and the whole community celebrated with me and my family. I further studied Bachelor of Education, now pursuing my master's degree in Languages, mainly preserving our African languages : Setswana language. I can relate to it better compared to more languages.
Me and a mate drove to Potchefstroom in the North Western Province of South Africa from Joburg one evening on a whim. When we got there we went straight to a local night club. I lost contact with my friend in the club and my phone was flat. I'd already made friends with a group and they offered me a comfy bed at no cost, next morning I called my friend and he came to pick me up. Tswana people are so laid back.

I was born in America but was raised in Botswana cuz my mum is motswana and I’m proud and glad to have grown up in that country cuz when I came back to America I still represent the values and morals this country has bestowed on me.
Thank you for letting people know about this beautiful gem. I have a soft spot for this place and it's people. Lived in Gaborone and Ghanzi some years back! I miss the people and the country!
@@acefully4703 No. But their focus is often to portray imagery of war, hunger, corruption and everything bad as if to say can anything good come out of this region. We need a balance in the narrative and that's what Tayo has achieved.

Namibia and Botswana are the two huge countries, friendly people , very small population and peaceful, never felt freer when i passed through these lovely countries,
@@cmartin5903how come we never see american troops in thd so called american base? funny how people come up with bs stories and every fool falls for it.
Botswana has the same population size as Soweto. If these people are serious, they can make it a very prosperous place with a high standard of leaving.
The joy I get when creators visit Botswana 🇧🇼 why? I did a country research paper on Botswana and it was 40 pages of good information. Learnt a lot and was inspired by their educational system, wildlife and how they managed to use a single national resource, diamond 💎, to make the country better. Good healthcare, good education, great wildlife conservation and wonderful people. About the size of Texas in landmass but with less people, almost 2.6 million people. Great information from @Tayo Aina
I'm a Motswana born in South Africa and I've never set foot in Botswana but the love I have for Botswana is so huge. Ever since i was little all I wanted was to visit Botswana ❤
As an African American i really want to eventually visit a lot of these beautiful African countries. Thank you Tayo for showing us what these wonderful cultures have to offer 🙌🏾
Forget just visiting. I was searching for a place in Africa to move to and I think I've just found it. I know most African Americans are into Ghana but this country seems to fit my energy better. Don't get me wrong America is the country I was born in and I've been here all of my 51 years, look 35 by the way 😊, but I will definitely consider moving there long term and see how things go. America is getting a little crazy now with it's politics and other things. I have to research can African Americans buy a house there and what about citizenship? Do you have to be a citizen to buy a house and land or how does that work?
@@LouisaAnime-lw2sn Ok great to know. Besides that I've seen some horror stories of black people from America buying land in Ghana and having a house built and then the land gets taken away. No way after seeing that Ghana was out for me. Plus it seems overpriced. For the prices I've seen in some places in Ghana you can get that same house and probably more in America in a lot of places.
@@ramakrishnashalom9004 I see your point. Though being somone who hasn't explored real estate any further than the southern region of Africa it wouldnt be in my power to comment there. I live in Botswana by maun region were Okavango is it's definitely worth it. Tayo should visit again the culture is worth it though I'm also curious about other places now like Japan any thoughts there?
Thanks for wearing a Namibian shirt. Africa , we all one. Love each other throughout the continent. Black is strong, black is colorful and black is love…🇳🇦
@Tshabalala-em3wj Don't isolate yourself my brothers and sisters. African unity is good for us all. No African should have visa to travel in Africa and we should us the same currency, African dollar, dinar or whatever name it is. Free trade of commodities and free movement of people.
The people of Botswana treated me so well during my visit in 2015. It was my first visit to sub-Saharan Africa. It is a vibe there. I think not having to fight a war for independence and no civil war has benefited them. I can't wait to go back. They really have something special there.
I was born in Botswana but moved to Cameroon before I turned one so I have zero memories. Visiting my birth country is definitely on my bucket list. Thank you for giving me a glimpse of what I will see.😊

Best country on continental Africa, lower corruption levels than some European countries, also much safer than my home country, South Africa, which is becoming an absolute mess in many ways. They still take the rule of law and personal safety, seriously. Well done Botswana, you're what Africa should aspire to be!
I lived in botswana for 3 years before moving to USA. It is a great country, no corruption like other African countries, not overpopulated, nice people and food
If you are from a western country then you come from the most corrupt countries in the world, stop fooling yourself that African countries are the most corrupt.
Botswana is an extremely wonderful country. I was there in August 2022 for a professional course facilitated by the FBI at the International Law Enforcement Academy, Gaborone. We visited the Makalodi Game Reserve and i had the best time of my life. The people are contagiously happy, easy going and generous. You should have visited any of their shopping malls, they have a lot of malls scattered all over Gaborone. If one is not careful one will develop cardio issues because of calories intake...beef is their major staple. In every dish you are served, meat is like 80% 🤣
I remember reading about Sir Seretse Khama and his push for independence. This country is a testament to what having visionary and selfless leaders can do.
My two favorite parts is when the people broke out in song.😍I love cultures that still entertain themselves. I also love how Botswana is getting some of the wealth of their diamonds to take care of their citizens’ health & education.
I remember in 2019 watching National Geographic eternal enemies lions and hyenas documentary and I fell in love with Botswana 🇧🇼 and I dreamed of moving there and I’m still working on my dream 😊
Thank you - my fav dream country - which I must travel to. It’s a shame how even Africans ignore Botswana. Def not perfect (which country is) but close to perfection. I don’t understand how many Africans always prefer to look to the extracontinental East or the West instead of seeking inspiration from another African country
I spent over half my childhood in Botswana and seeing you go to the places that I loved when I was little, actually made me cry. I lived there since I was two until I was 9. Now I'm 15 and I really miss this.
@@charlygram_official Exactly my observation! I worked in Tanzania for about 8 years and I listened to the Church Service on Radio just for the songs even though my comprehension of Swahili is very minima.
When she mentioned that they were a protectorate I remembered the movie "A UNITED KINGDOM" by David Oyelowo. A true story about Botswana. Tayo you are not just a content creator but also a good film maker and a story teller. Thank you for showing the world how beautiful Africa is.
Im from the US but lived in Gaborone and Maun for five years as a safari pilot. Botswana will now always be my home. I've never felt more at peace than in the bush of Botswana. Great video! ❤
My younger sister and her husband lived in Botswana for about 2-3 years. She had her first child in Botswana. They now live in Australia. I will love to visit Botswana some day.
As an african from algeria 🇩🇿 I really want to explore africa and its beautiful countries I only visited tunisia morroco and nigeria, I think botswana is on my list now
@@trayway9067 it's true that alot of somali uneducated people claim to be Arab, I'm not gonna argue with that, but as educated persons I know I'm an African, the language that I speaks says All, I have being in Africa for thousand of years. So don't belive what ever you heard about social media or what somebody else thought you about somali people, go there and explore yourself meet the people, talk to them
@trayway9067, and then? They are African. I don't consider myself black and never will yet I am African. You black Americans need to stay outta of our African affairs and stop pushing your stupid black agenda. If you want to call yourselves Indigo or navy blue that's not our business. Stay out of our business!
@aim1307, you don't have to justify anything to a black American. They are not African so it's none of their business what Somalis orAfricans do or don't do
As President of the Pan African Scrabble Association, the body that administers the game of Scrabble on the continent, we gave the hosting rights of the next East, Central & Southern Africa Scrabble Championship to be held next Easter to Botswana who have only recently joined the continental body. To see you really dive into Botswana in this way is interesting for me cos i now look forward to the Championship next year and will surely explore the country while i am there. Africa is so beautiful, our rhythm would pierce the hardest hearts, we really are not exploring our continent enough! Tayo, thank you for giving us yet another great video!
Beautiful. You guys that travel and showcase African countries are doing a great service to the world. God bless you all. One thing to note, as a Nigerian, I LOVE SOUTHERN AFRICAN voices as they sing christian songs. THERE IS NOTHING like it in the world in my opinion. VERY DISTINCT and peculiar to Southern Africans.
I'm from Nigeria and I'm really amazed out how the people there live in harmony with wildlife unlike my country, I think I'm going to relocate to this country fast
Why don’t you stay in Nigeria and change the things you don’t like about it. If all of you relocate who will change it? It starts with one person and that person could be you!
@@ashleyhearts8561 we are global people exist only for a few seconds on earth and die.... Y limit oneself to western imposed boarders when western people enjoy the whole world
Botswana is a beautiful, peaceful, and rich African country. Botswana's pragmatic leader Seretse Khama is the reason Botswana is a successful and stable country.
In Nigeria, going to places of this kind with guides, you are with armed guards or police and constantly worried about kidnapping. So so sad. I weep for my beloved naija.
I’m from South Africa and go there often. The people are awesome and there is almost zero crime. Beautiful holiday destination with modern city life on one side and totally wild on the other side 👌
As a motswana( a person from Botswana) I'd say we'll done Tayo for the accurate presentation of my country and THANK YOU! And I just found out about the tower from you for the first time 😂😂😂. Anyway, isn't that Makgadikgadi salt pans? I've never heard of it being referred to as rysana pans. Whoever told you that's what they are called lied to you. It's not true. Makgadikgadikgadi pans is the name. Oh and my ancestors used to visit the pans to mine salt there.💁♀
Great country led by arguably Africa's best leader ever, Sir Seretse Khama. His story with his english wife Ruth Williams and their battle to overcome racial prejudice is inspirational. A far cry from turbulent Nigeria.
I live in SA and everytime you do a feature video on other African countries i wanna move there haha.. you have a great talent for storytelling.. I've been to Botswana twice as i have family there of the Bakalange tribe and it's a great country.. laid back, chill populace, very hot in December.. love how the government is taking such progressive policies for its people. Shout out +267! ps: did a school project on Botswana in primary school and I've always had a soft spot for it..
At 3:53 i like how you are wearing a Namibia 🇳🇦 printed shirt while being in excursions in Botswana 🇧🇼. That’s patriotism to the mother continent Africa🙌🏾👌🏾
I've always wanted to visit Botswana and I still do. Fun fact: Their currency is called "Pula", which translates to "rain". How cool is that! I will still come to Botswana and when I do, I will come back to this post to give an update. Plus: I have never met a Motswana before. I would really love to explore the country with a lovely local. So, I'm calling on the universe to help me fulfill this dream. 💛🙏🏾💜
@kgosijapie5859 Thank you for your kind words. Looking forward to the day I'll come back to this post to give an update a la "here's how it started". By God's grace, 2024 Botswana here I come. May God keep us all alive...safe and sound.
This brought back a lot of fond memories. I grew up in Botswana for 22 years of my life and I am 39 years old. You did a fair coverage of the country and I am thinking of going back to visit all my friends and family that I left there.
Botswana was the first country i had been too in Africa and I loved it.....mokolodi had excellent food! I will actually be there in December for the New Year of 2023.
what a country! I never knew such type of responsible governance and leadership exeisted in Africa. I'm so proud of them. Such beautiful place and people❤
Enjoyed this! I'm actually shocked to find out that my country is this beautiful while I've been living in it for 25 years. I'm motivated to explore my country.😍😍 Thanks Tayo.
I was in Botswana in March, I drove the whole length of the countries motorway, all the way to Nata from Gaborone, people are extremely nice and yes.....watch out for the cows on the motorways especially at nights
We will stop at nothing to preserve Botswana! We are Batswana, and we are patriotic. The kindness you have experienced both directly and during your stay in our stunning nation has humbled us. Could I please extend my hand and invite you to stay with me during your next trip to Botswana?
Wow! Botswana is a beautiful country. It’s now on my list of one of the countries to visit. The song on the hilltop gave me chills 🥹❤️ Thank you for sharing this adventure with us.
Thank you so much Mr Tayo for this Beautiful Pice. I just pray that my country Nigeria becomes this peaceful and harmonious, Progressive.. very soon. #LONGLIVEOURAFRICA #GODBLESSBOSTIWANA
This country really proves that Africa is not a poor place, only some areas are. But this shows that Africa is an energy force that moves as one and connects with their ancestors
This quite frankly is one of the most beautiful countries in the world!! I believe it has the best educational system in Africa and possibly the world!!
Tayo bredren you and your crew made me teary #1. When I was a kid I wanted to visit west Africa and loved the clothing plus you my Nigerian bredren visiting Botswana made me cry #2. You got me missing my Nigerian friends,and I wish I was there to host you,we believe in Botho or what most know as ubuntu 3. Damn you got me missing home + SA.

Batswana people are people of harmony. I am Xhosa and started staying with Batswana from the age of 6. My father worked in the mines for 45 years literally around Batswana all the time. I experienced a good childhood. I don't remember any violence or bad things happening in and around the commuties i stayed in. They used to help me with my homework and i came out with a distinction (81%) on my matric certificate and the whole community celebrated with me and my family.

My two favorite parts is when the people broke out in song.😍I love cultures that still entertain themselves. I also love how Botswana is getting some of the wealth of their diamonds to take care of their citizens’ health & education.
Botswana is so beautiful I pray that they will continue to prosper and live in such peace and harmony
I remember in 2019 watching National Geographic eternal enemies lions and hyenas documentary and I fell in love with Botswana 🇧🇼 and I dreamed of moving there and I’m still working on my dream 😊

Thank Tayo for always showing Africa in a positive light. As an African American, I can't wait to visit the land of my ancestors
The Land of your ancestors is America not Africa. Africa is the cradle of humanity and home to all, not you people specifically

Thank you - my fav dream country - which I must travel to. It’s a shame how even Africans ignore Botswana. Def not perfect (which country is) but close to perfection. I don’t understand how many Africans always prefer to look to the extracontinental East or the West instead of seeking inspiration from another African country
I spent over half my childhood in Botswana and seeing you go to the places that I loved when I was little, actually made me cry. I lived there since I was two until I was 9. Now I'm 15 and I really miss this.
❤
I spent my childhood in Botswana too. Left when I was 18
why did you leave, if i may ask?
Thanks.
There is a way that East and South Africans sing that is unique, their songs are so sweet and solemn to hear. Nice outing as always, Tayo.
Our languages are also almost similar..
Even if you don’t understand the language you can feel the spirituality in the song, so African, sweet n melodious.
@@charlygram_official Exactly my observation! I worked in Tanzania for about 8 years and I listened to the Church Service on Radio just for the songs even though my comprehension of Swahili is very minima.
Are they Bantu languages
@@boohookidscreations8003bantu simply mean humans,no group of people with that name bantu
When she mentioned that they were a protectorate I remembered the movie "A UNITED KINGDOM" by David Oyelowo. A true story about Botswana. Tayo you are not just a content creator but also a good film maker and a story teller. Thank you for showing the world how beautiful Africa is.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏾
Amazing content as usual. Keep it up!🌟
He inspired me a lot to start. Really love his content
Namibian, that's very in love with Botswana and the Batswana :)
We love u and Namibia too
I’m in love with Botswana, Namibia, the whole of Africa.

Love to vacate in Botswana with my family after watching this. Lovely African people!😅
Lot of love from Nigeria!🎉
Im from the US but lived in Gaborone and Maun for five years as a safari pilot. Botswana will now always be my home. I've never felt more at peace than in the bush of Botswana. Great video! ❤
Botswana is really beautiful and full of history ❤
You are doing the Lord's work by advertising different African cultures the way you do Tayo. Thank you so much 👏🏼

My sister visited twice. She said it's the most amazing place she has been
Where are from😊
My younger sister and her husband lived in Botswana for about 2-3 years. She had her first child in Botswana. They now live in Australia. I will love to visit Botswana some day.
I observed you moving freely without worried about robbery or kidnapping. My family will surely visit one day 🙏🏾🙏🏾
As an african from algeria 🇩🇿 I really want to explore africa and its beautiful countries I only visited tunisia morroco and nigeria, I think botswana is on my list now
I hope you enjoyed Nigeria visit..? One love brother
🇧🇼 is absolutely gorgeous country, luv from Somalia 🇸🇴
We had a lot of our Somali brothers and sisters in the early 90s in Botswana 🇧🇼
yall dont consider yourselfs black
@@trayway9067 it's true that alot of somali uneducated people claim to be Arab, I'm not gonna argue with that, but as educated persons I know I'm an African, the language that I speaks says All, I have being in Africa for thousand of years. So don't belive what ever you heard about social media or what somebody else thought you about somali people, go there and explore yourself meet the people, talk to them
@trayway9067, and then? They are African. I don't consider myself black and never will yet I am African. You black Americans need to stay outta of our African affairs and stop pushing your stupid black agenda. If you want to call yourselves Indigo or navy blue that's not our business. Stay out of our business!
@aim1307, you don't have to justify anything to a black American. They are not African so it's none of their business what Somalis orAfricans do or don't do
Always lovin' me some Botswana! One of the low-key Jewels of southern Africa.
As President of the Pan African Scrabble Association, the body that administers the game of Scrabble on the continent, we gave the hosting rights of the next East, Central & Southern Africa Scrabble Championship to be held next Easter to Botswana who have only recently joined the continental body. To see you really dive into Botswana in this way is interesting for me cos i now look forward to the Championship next year and will surely explore the country while i am there. Africa is so beautiful, our rhythm would pierce the hardest hearts, we really are not exploring our continent enough! Tayo, thank you for giving us yet another great video!
is the scrabble championship open to everyone? how do you qualify? i am in Botswana
Was last in Botswana in 2006 , remember that market area but mostly the hospitality of Batswana! Incredible people!
Beautiful. You guys that travel and showcase African countries are doing a great service to the world. God bless you all. One thing to note, as a Nigerian, I LOVE SOUTHERN AFRICAN voices as they sing christian songs. THERE IS NOTHING like it in the world in my opinion. VERY DISTINCT and peculiar to Southern Africans.
My exact thoughts!
Botswana is on my travel list💯 Loved the choir on the hill singing hosanna. Africa and Africans are just beautiful! Thanks Tayo❤
When coming Botswana consider coming to Maun and Kasane for wildlife
That was my best part of the video. Well captured.. it's a breathtaking, beautiful country
Please what is the name of the song?
My people 😊! I’m South African, but Motswana!

We will be awaiting ur arrival good friend.
Something thats so peaceful and loving about Africans...
I'm from Nigeria and I'm really amazed out how the people there live in harmony with wildlife unlike my country, I think I'm going to relocate to this country fast
Why don’t you stay in Nigeria and change the things you don’t like about it. If all of you relocate who will change it? It starts with one person and that person could be you!

Botswana is a beautiful, peaceful, and rich African country. Botswana's pragmatic leader Seretse Khama is the reason Botswana is a successful and stable country.
Tayo, I swear you're a Gem. The way you highlight several parts of our world, you deserve all the flowers.
In Nigeria, going to places of this kind with guides, you are with armed guards or police and constantly worried about kidnapping. So so sad. I weep for my beloved naija.
I’m from South Africa and go there often. The people are awesome and there is almost zero crime. Beautiful holiday destination with modern city life on one side and totally wild on the other side 👌
Thanks for the love Tayo @ 3:59, We here in Nam are so happy that we don't need a Passport to enter Botswana. Love our next door family.
Nice one Tayo. I'm a Sierra Leonean, and I grew up in Botswana. I love what you're doing man. If you're ever in Freetown 🇸🇱, hit me up!
@TayoAinaFirms...Yes!
and why did you move??? indians and other aliens are beginning to outnumber us.....its a shame wat our govtmnt is doing.....
As a motswana( a person from Botswana) I'd say we'll done Tayo for the accurate presentation of my country and THANK YOU! And I just found out about the tower from you for the first time 😂😂😂. Anyway, isn't that Makgadikgadi salt pans? I've never heard of it being referred to as rysana pans. Whoever told you that's what they are called lied to you. It's not true. Makgadikgadikgadi pans is the name. Oh and my ancestors used to visit the pans to mine salt there.💁♀
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 😁. I believe the section I was is called Rysana pans.

You know we Batswana love you Namibians. Our sober neighbours. Reason our coutries got a free movement policy 😂
Tayo, as a Nigerian who spent 3 years as a kid in Botswana, this was awesome winidow into my childhood home. thank you for what you do!
Great country led by arguably Africa's best leader ever, Sir Seretse Khama. His story with his english wife Ruth Williams and their battle to overcome racial prejudice is inspirational. A far cry from turbulent Nigeria.
I live in SA and everytime you do a feature video on other African countries i wanna move there haha.. you have a great talent for storytelling.. I've been to Botswana twice as i have family there of the Bakalange tribe and it's a great country.. laid back, chill populace, very hot in December.. love how the government is taking such progressive policies for its people. Shout out +267!
ps: did a school project on Botswana in primary school and I've always had a soft spot for it..
At 3:53 i like how you are wearing a Namibia 🇳🇦 printed shirt while being in excursions in Botswana 🇧🇼. That’s patriotism to the mother continent Africa🙌🏾👌🏾
I've always wanted to visit Botswana and I still do. Fun fact: Their currency is called "Pula", which translates to "rain". How cool is that! I will still come to Botswana and when I do, I will come back to this post to give an update. Plus: I have never met a Motswana before. I would really love to explore the country with a lovely local. So, I'm calling on the universe to help me fulfill this dream. 💛🙏🏾💜
@TayoAina. Thanks for your comment but in the name of God, PLEASE STOP PRETENDING TO BE THE REAL Tayo Aina! It’s criminal please stop!
I am a motswana residing in the capital city, Gaborone.. I will surely be of assistance free of charge.. bless you
@kgosijapie5859 Thank you for your kind words. Looking forward to the day I'll come back to this post to give an update a la "here's how it started". By God's grace, 2024 Botswana here I come. May God keep us all alive...safe and sound.
I`d love to live in Botswana. Can you help me move since I'm stateless and need special travel documents? Desperately awaiting a response.

This brought back a lot of fond memories. I grew up in Botswana for 22 years of my life and I am 39 years old. You did a fair coverage of the country and I am thinking of going back to visit all my friends and family that I left there.
Botswana was the first country i had been too in Africa and I loved it.....mokolodi had excellent food! I will actually be there in December for the New Year of 2023.

Same here sis, I am shocked too🤣
I was in Botswana in March, I drove the whole length of the countries motorway, all the way to Nata from Gaborone, people are extremely nice and yes.....watch out for the cows on the motorways especially at nights
We share our space with our animals pal... 😂😂😂. Hope you enjoyed every bit

This country really proves that Africa is not a poor place, only some areas are. But this shows that Africa is an energy force that moves as one and connects with their ancestors
This quite frankly is one of the most beautiful countries in the world!! I believe it has the best educational system in Africa and possibly the world!!
