The reason cousins do that in Ethiopia is because there is no expectation of Romance. Since Sudanese are Muslim, cousin marriage is a normal thing and once that is at the back of your mind, then casual touching and close relationship is frowned upon ( at least before marriage). Even Muslims in Ethiopia do not marry cousins because of the heavy cultural taboo

You are ambassadors of Africa in the USA, I highly appreciate this , with unconditional love

I completely agree with your comment about the Ethiopian/Sudanese culture being a collective culture (they look out for one another, and are very close), and the American culture is an individualist culture ( they are more to themselves, and independent minded). For example, the reason Americans leave people at the door doesn't have as much to do with hospitality as it has to do with safety. Americans are extremely concerned with safety more so because we are not a collective culture, and as a whole, we don't tend to look out for one another as much. Great video!!!💚

When I was teaching I had 3 students from Eritrea 🇪🇷. I learned so much about Eastern Africa from those wonderful girls.

My complete family 😍I am Sudanese currently known as south Sudan, born in Ethiopia.

Wow this is such a dope channel.. New to watching and it's really interesting..

This is so fascinating! I love these cultural videos.

Lol omg im so glad y'all did this soooo cute😍😍❤️ very interesting as well!!

There may be cultural barriers but you guys in some way are so fit together.

I love Sudan because of you.

Big Respect as per to God...... Just Z Opening of Ethiopian wisdom As such Introduction.....heartily Txs

touchy feely ppl! lol... helps me as a nurse though lol love it!

If I would visit Ethiopia, do I need to learn Amharic? I'd love to go but idk anyone there... a bit nervous about language and communication. Is English widely known or not?

Nice video guys. It's nice to hear about the foot washing tradition in Ethiopia. This would make sense since Ethiopia is a majority Christian country. It is a Biblical/Jewish tradition to wash the feet of a guest. Even Jesus washed the feet of His disciples. This is a cool aspect of your husband's culture.

I subscribed because you are a beautiful Sudanese woman. And supporting your channel.i feel like i can learn alot from you. GOD bless you beautiful

Thanks guys,, this is so beautiful & true ,, am Sudanese who lived much in Eritrea & i loved it ,, u never feel as a stranger there & barely feel a difference ,, Hope one day all of Africa w'll be one & we get to c it.

The touchy part in Ethiopian culture is very true. I remember once we had european family neighbors come over to our house in Ethiopia and my cousin and I (both male) were sitting with them talking while hugging each other, which is so normal. Then they told us that we would be considered gays if we did that in europe. I remember becoming so confused and never understood them what the hell they were talking about until I came to the west 😂. Cousins for example in Ethiopian christian culture are treated like brother and sister. No one even think of having sexual intercourse with his/her cousin. It is like doing it with your sister/brother. Many Ethiopians even introduce their cousins as sister or brother and not as cousins to emphasise their true relationship. You only find later that they are in reality cousins. In Ethiopian christian culture marrying your relative up to 7 generation is forbidden. That is why relatives are very touchy because it is absolutely impossible even to think about anything sexual with your relatives. In many parts of Ethiopia there is a family union day before any marriage can take place. Both families (elders) come together and "count" their ancestors to be sure that the couple are not related in any way.

Amena your accent is what i like! it is easy to understand and makes me watch your next video. Elias yagere lij berta!

Another thing is that Ethiopians and also Somalis are the most good looking Africans.They have a very delicate refine facial features and delicate skin tones.

Literally , myself and grandpa we used to go to the bus station after sunset and bring people that couldn’t make it to their destination over to our house till next morning. The funny thing is some of them they will end up stay over for months to come. For your information this will happen only in Sudan. Love Sudan to death.

I love you guys me to I'm from Sudan & Eritrea I live in USA Chicago.

It sure is true when you said Ethiopian people treat everyone like brothers and sisters. My best friend and her family all consider me family and we mention that very often about each other too. We eat together and share everything. I am used to that but it's not typical American culture, as you mentioned. We are blending our two cultures together. Love your videos!

Samuel Momodu. West Africans have almost no Arab influence and very touchy. East African with little or no Arab influence have similar culture as West Africans. However, East Africans who have Arabian influence are very different like some Ethiopians and Somalians. The Arabs have destroyed Sub-Saharan African civilization.

I was thinking about maybe a dance off... or demo on the similarities and differences between the countries. Another idea is marriage customs between the two. I have a lot of Sudanese friends and was amused the first time I heard about the shayla and firka and dilka and duhan. 😂

In Somali culture you call your cousin my sister or my brother and same goes for even second or third cousin hhhh just like our brothers ethiopians. Also before the somali civil war we were very touchy with each other girls and boys family and close friends then after the civil war we become like Saudi Arabia for some reason, very very strict. Nice video...

That is the cutest 'couple-smile' I have ever seen.

Beautiful couples

Do you guys know that Sudan means black in Arabic and Ethiopia means black in Greek. Therefor, Ethiopia is Sudan is black the same.

I am Ethiopian and every thing you said about the culture is true except the "touching part" I mean yea men and women say hi and greet and kiss on the cheeks the Ethiopian way but men and women dont really touch that much especially because they might be married. In fact, Ethiopian culture is actually strict when it comes to men and women touching unless they are couples or married. On the other hand if its men and men or women and women its k
