I set out to leave Ivory Coast to enter Burkina Faso, known during colonization as Alto Volta. There has been an attack on the French embassy and because of my beard the police search every inch of my bags. The Carnet de Passages is totally unknown on the border I want to enter… Bureaucracy is not my favorite activity and neither, it seems, is it that of the customs agents around here…

    1. I ride across Africa three times – twice east routes and once west routes – never paid a bribe and always breeze through customs. I have to say I am older, blue eyed and speak Mandarin which helps with meeting the Chinese who helped. He is carrying too much kit and to be honest – does look like a Muslim terrorist (not his fault ) but he does

    2. Is it possible to buy a motorcycle in Marokko and go woithout a "carnet de passage" or any papers for the bike through all of Africa? Would this be much easier?

    3. Just came across your channel and besides the great videos you make, I have to say, I really like your positive and friendly attitude. You seem like a man who totally is at peace with the world, which is inspiring.

    4. Boring video… Just keeps on babbling in Spanish. I saw zero interesting people, zero interesting encounters, and zero fun. Just drive, drive, drive, talk, talk, talk. You're supposed to show us the country not talk about it.

    5. You're so funny. You're not happy with yourself being a "capitalist" because you're staying in a cheap dodgy hotel, which in my opinion is far from capitalist. But you're not realizing travelling around the world with your own motorbike is the most western/capitalist thing you can do!

    6. The Spanish police target Africans in Spain too. Why are you complaining? At least you are not French because Africans are sick of racist French cops and they get even with French travellers.

    7. An antibiotic would do those people more harm than good unless you give them a full regimen and then they follow it correctly. Stop trying to save the world or else you won't be able to even save yourself

    9. hey Nico, so far it has been lovely series to watch great work buddy especially the edits and timings of music🥰 i enjoy every second of your video .

      but only 60 episodes are in English and i have checked your Spanish language channel Africa series is lot bigger and non Spanish speakers cannot enjoy those because we don't understand anything so can you please translate the whole of Africa series. If not then also fine but i really wanna watch it man and past 60 episodes i will not be able to understand anything.

      All the best for your future journey and nothing but Love from my side ❤️

    10. I started watching this channel after enjoying 'Itchy Boots.' However, I find that the creator tends to be an endless complainer, and the generalizations made about Africa lack an understanding of the local context.
