In your opinion, what was different this time from the last time you were there?

I was last there in 2014 so appearance wise the city did change a bit but not drastically other than a few new food joints here and there and businesses and buildings and also more roads paved etc. However, the biggest change by far was the amount of foreigners. Oromos and Yemenis everywhere, I even saw them on the local calaamadaha bus that I used. Also loads of Asians and whites that was more surprising. Most of the food joints I went to had Arabs and Asians and white people dining there. All the white people and other foreigners were driving themselves with no guard or protection even in the suuq they casually buy their xabxab and cambe just like the locals. I still can't get my head around the amount of foreigners even Kenyan chefs

I asked some of the white people what do you do here and most said they were in banking and business not NGOs like how it used to be before. There's Asians of all sorts Chinese Filipinos and the Asians I know of in the UK the Indians and pakis

 

[Madaxkuti]

I saw some Somali guys fixing one of the petrol pumps at star and there was a Indian guy with a hard hat supervising them

Yes the beer and kelyo how could I forget it tastes so fresh and nice and succulent

 

[Grigori Rasputin]

Adeer! I have an embarrassing moment to share

One time, around Eid in Hargeisa, we bought a goat to slaughter. I told folks I'll slaughter it in the mourning. Morning came and I was a knife by my uncle I chickened out. I developed a relationship with the goat

Just sitting here patiently waiting for pics/vids of the blessed city to be dropped

Hargeisa looks lit n sounds windy. My fav thing is the colourful business signs. I was once laughed at in here by suggesting that Hargeisa is shaping up to look like a first world city

Don't worry borama will be coming up shortly I'll drop a few teaser pics before the main thing. The thing I liked about borama was the calm and Serene and the people were really welcoming great place

That whole time I was there I use to go there 3x out of the week that the waiter and I became cool acquaintances. He learned to not dish out to me baruur because i'd tip him. He'd also run to the store next door and get me a sprite.

When was the last time you were there ? How much was a half waslad?

Only visited for a short while earlier this year (Feb). Half waslad was $5 at Golis.

Why are people saying there's an inflation?

It was $5 back in '12

 

[Waxwaalan]

This was my fifth time so I know the place pretty well

You're not from hargeysa are you? Or the region in general, right?
