Drew Binsky visits Yemen

He went to the parts without conflict and with relative stability. I am shocked by how poor and underdeveloped it looks. I didn’t expect it to look that bad. Somalia looks much better than this

Yemen is in an active civil war. Not fair to judge them now.

True. I don’t know why I expected it to be better. I can’t believe there are Somali migrants still living there

Most Somali migrants to Yemen hope to sneak into Saudi Arabia, Oman, UAE and work illegally there.

PS. I don't get why GCC countries (GCC is the EU of Arabia basically) treat Yemen like they do. They could have used Yemenis as their main work force instead of South Asians (PK, IN etc), but I hear they are afraid of social uprisings and political agitation.

The food in 1:55 is what my moms would usually make.

I wanted to go to Yemen to see the unique architecture before the shitshow happened.

I stumbled upon a blog a few years ago, and there was this biker that took a trip through the country. The pictures the dude took of the scenery and how the unique architecture blended in with it piqued my interest heavy.
