Betanya 

Hi, welcome! New YouTuber here 💛

I'm Betanya, born to Eritrean and Ethiopian roots. I was born in Riyadh, spent my early years there, then moved to Addis Ababa, and now split my time between Atlanta and Toronto. I've spent my life moving between cultures, languages, food, communities, and ways of seeing the world, and as an anthropologist, that curiosity never really turns off. I question traditions, customs, and assumptions (including my own), and I'm always learning.

This channel is where that curiosity lives: new reads by African authors, my love letter to travel, and the stories that come with both. Expect honest reflections, practical travel tips, and conversations about identity, diaspora life, and what it means to be a citizen of the world.

If you're curious too, you're in the right place. Come along with me.
