    thanks for your comment. The intent is to highlight the fact that the host of this episode is a native African rather than a foreign host, as is the case in most travel shows. I think it is well understood that Africans live in cities and the country, however this show is about rural Africa.

      When u walk around barefoot enough, the entire bottom of ur feet becomes hard and calloused as a natural protective barrier. My uncle, who hasn't worn shoes in over 20 years, can stomp barefoot on broken glass without injury. Using her feet it probably the best way to avoid burns without oven mitts/pads.
