    The videography here is very good. Very good. I think the ministry of tourism in Kenya needs to start paying these youtubers (they're doing more for tourism than any government official out there is doing)
    If they go back to Lamu, I think it would be interesting to hear the stories of the people in Mpeketoni that survived the alshabab attack (Mpeketoni itself has an interesting history -- Kenyatta resettled lots of Kikuyu's there in the 60's and 70's) and that created some tense situations with the locals and I believe it was one of the reasons why it was picked by alshabab for their attack.

If I didn’t know that he’s a RUclipsr, I would think he’s an established video journalist. I’ve just finished binge watching his videos.
