 I have the energy to speak to you guys but all I want to say is is Kaurama Kosodo Somalilad such a beautiful country filled with beautiful people I mean coming in here makes me feel like generosity actually exists in humans because it takes a human to be generous to another human right I've been here for eight days and people in here have shown me nothing but pure love man love actually exists in Somalilad if I should give a slogan for this country I will say it's a country of love I mean if you go to Berbera they will tell you that Berbera is the city of love right but I would say the entire country is a city filled with generous people I mean I just want to add this testimony to it because why I am right now is called White Horse Hotel and it was given to me out of generosity literally I'm not paying for anything they found out that hey what am I is in the country and they were like yo if you are here you just have to stay here whether you like it or not I'm like wow so I also want to say this and pay back I want to say thank you so much for giving me such a beautiful welcome to your beautiful country so if you ever get a chance to visit Somaliland the best place for you to stay is White Horse Hotel don't thank me now I mean thank me later you know it's a month of Ramadan the month of love demand that is more special to our Muslim brothers and sisters and when I go to Somaliland it was actually a day before Ramadan and I'm that guy who travels to embrace different culture different religion different way of doing things in every country that I go to I just don't go to a country 48 hours and I live I always want to experience the country spend my money in the country I mean get a chance to get to know the people before I'll be able to come out with one single video so I've been here for like eight days so I know what I'm saying I've been to almost every corner of Somaliland and when I go here they told me that hey Maya I think you came at the perfect time I'm like which one is a perfect time they said tomorrow is Ramadan and I'm like you know what if tomorrow is Ramadan I definitely want to practice Ramadan for the first time because I learned Ramadan in school but I never knew that a day will come I actually get the chance to practice Ramadan so all I did a day before Ramadan was to go try Lasgale is it Lasgale no if you come to um this country they go or what do you call it camel meat so I'm like you know what please can I try camel meat before Ramadan because I really want to fast and it's been seven good days and I never regret participating in this Ramadan is the most important month of the year for us for Muslims all over the world it's a month where we get to regain strengthen our consciousness with Allah unlearn all bad habits and most importantly put yourself in someone else's shoes of less fortunate feel self-discipline within your body while fasting and you could think of it like a 30-day retreat with Allah Ramadan is actually one of the five pillars of Islam you see the flag behind me that is a beautiful flag of Somalia land I mean waving higher and you see the Arabic signs in it that is actually one of the world the five pillars of Islam and what do you see right there is the Shahada I mean every Muslim knows this if you don't know this maybe you can go go let and Ramadan is the most important one and don't forget that Ramadan is actually the ninth month of the Islamic calendar I didn't know this I didn't know that Ramadan is actually a month it's actually a holy month it's actually a month that Allah review the first chapter of the Quran to Prophet Muhammad so I mean this month every Muslim in this world don't eat or drink water from dawn to sunset so during sunrise to sunset I mean I feel like it's a moment to connect with your spirit because I have experienced this myself and I feel so connected and believe me I wanted to do this for just few days but I think I'll go for 30 days and she has been so helpful I feel like without her I wouldn't have been able to complete my seven days fasting you know because we need to wake up early morning to eat so what she normally comes knocks our door around 4 445 today actually it came late she was actually dead slept in 415 came she brought some foodstuffs we ate together and then yeah I went back to sleep did you hear that first call of prayer were you awake because I've been here for like how many days now yeah six days so literally usually that actually woke me up so it was around 4 10 okay yeah yeah I woke up and I'm like why is she not coming she's still sleeping are you praying yeah so the first call of prayer that you hear it's the alarm clock for the entire country but it's literally telling everyone wake up time to eat wake up and then the second call of prayer which you're gonna hear in about 20 minutes that means okay final call get ready final call get ready and then the last one means prayer close fast no more food after that point but I don't think I will eat after this one I'm really not used to like eating at this hour I really like this but yeah yeah just drink up like hydrate regardless what you do there you hit 10 30 a.m. and hunger starts doesn't matter if you have buffet at this hour but one of the things that I do is to just like forget about the food at all okay yeah nothing just stay I mean with water you know what this time you're gonna go with that water no water this time yeah this call of prayer is what the second one that she yeah this is the last chance to eat last chance it's my last stop come back together like seven one thing that I really learned from them is that they actually practice Ramadan for you to understand that there are people out there who actually don't get food to eat during that time so put yourself in their shoes so literally Ramadan is also a month of what giving right so when she told me that I'm like you know what I cannot just fast without giving right I mean like as part of Ramadan I know that Ramadan is a time of giving and that is why I really want to do this before I get out of Somaliland I would love to buy a goat and also for the less privileged I mean your mom is around to definitely I'm gonna I want to purchase a goat and give it to you I mean you think it's okay right but where are we now we are you're the right place definitely we're at the go livestock market wow they have goat cow and camel for sale never seen anything like this before man but I think the people in here are friendly they're all calling me african african yeah I'm from Africa man hi yeah from Ghana you know Ghana yeah it's kind of like interesting how people here want to know where you from because you look different I need to come out here all right so I mean how much does it cost in here? Usually about 45 to 50 per dollar, it depends on the bigger butt or not but I don't want to give mommy a lot of stress so I think one goat should be enough because you gotta be cooking a lot of meat medium-sized and then that's okay right all right so let's go find somewhere to buy a goat goat shopping so we finally brought the goat back home and meet my Muslim family I mean she's actually my Muslim mom and she's the one who's gonna do the cooking I'm not gonna cook in here it's gonna do all the cooking I mean since I came to this country she has been taking care of me driving me around I'm even feeding me you know I've made it to life oh oh my goodness mommy I want to say thank you so much you know in Somaliland they say Mahasatni Mahasatni in Ghana we say medasi medasi yeah I speak Chinese too so I'll say shi shi ni but mommy I want to know yeah why is this so important to give during Ramadan well it's important because of this people who need and the people who have money and wealth so it's a kind of balance that the one with the well to give to the need it's yeah and I believe that whoever gives never lack so I think this should be a lesson to each and everyone even if you're not a Muslim learn to give but I think Ramadan is the time to give and since I'm here I also need to give so I'll just go somewhere else and by the time I come back I think food will be ready and together with Samia go out and share the food to the people who actually need it so how many hours in an hour in an hour food ready yeah so yeah this is the moment that I've been waiting for since morning you know it's time to break the fast and we break the fast by eating dates and drinking water I mean it's a way of regaining back your energy sorry I lost that shot because the woman she'll explain then yeah after dating water this follows and watermelon why watermelon because the Prophet Mohammed also watermelon so after the dates and water what list and then you can start the Samboos and the Mandasi it's low and to break the break the breakfast then after that you get up and pray after prayer you come back for your course you're filming okay so this is just like breakfast breakfast after breakfast then you come and eat your lunch and dinner yeah I want to say thank you so much for everything I really appreciate I mean eight days here it's amazing I would love to stay forever you know because of you now you want to have a house wow yeah I'll be coming here more often good anytime you come you welcome thank you yeah but don't forget that you both have a YouTube channel so make sure you check out the description box go click on the link and subscribe it's by force to support them yeah can I please have my main view I'm so happy you look at that sure we're happy dear
