      @@ariellevi8763 most of these places, technically your allowed to go on the beach as all beaches are "public" but what hotels do is put like a fence or net from their side of the beach, even worse is that your only allowed up to the high water tide line if the property is on the beach, meaning that you pretty much always have to be in the water if you want to be in the "public but pretty much private" beaches. And this is what puts people off enjoying that portion of the beach. It's crazy now I think about it.

At first I though he was a regular white guy but then he show that he could actually speak Hindi and then he presented himself as a guy from Mauritius, that's interesting considering he could very well pass as your average Australian/American/Canadian, etc. Just to show how truly diverse and interesting this place really is.

    • @taintedtaylor2586
      @taintedtaylor2586 5 лет назад +10

      i'm from Mexico bro, and i'm safe to tell you that the high crime rates are because of Drug violence, this includes the mere transportation of drugs, if you want to talk about Mexico just avoid the Northwest, it is what you see in the news everyday, Places like Mexico City are completely oblivious from this, Mexico City is New York, i'm from the most Northeastern point of the country, bordering Brownsville, The culture here is completely American.

    8:54 this is mauritius explained in a few seconds I'm laughing at the accuracy 😂😂 Thank you for touching down on the beach topic..it's so sad that all the prettiest beach are becoming privatised and so little is left compared to before. It would've also been interesting if you talked about the current case of the Chagos Archipelagos where people who were evicted by Britain in order to allow the US to make the island their military base are still trying to go back to their home.
    Overall I think this video was a well-done one. The pronunciations had me cracking up but it's all good lmao. It was weird to see the French names being translated to English cos I live in _"Grapefruit"_ 😂

    I would get Mauritius & Maldives mixed up so much. They both start with letter m. & Both are small island nations in Indian Ocean.
    Not any more though because I had taken to learn the difference between them 😅
