I'm a Swazi citizen ( currently in India). The video is ok but not totally informative, just a highlight of random things there and there. I must confess that food is expensive in our tiny Kingdom even more for a visitor who doesn't compare amongst shops... And buying mid month isn't ideal. I suppose your grocery was done at Shoprite Ezulwini where its obviously costly. Spar, and PickPay offer much better. A person who has never been in the Kingdom might be tempted to think that Swaziland is all rural and farms and game reserves and that's it.... You could have highlighted Mbabane, Manzini and Ezulwini briefly... I was so shy when the guide talked about women being submissive to men and the story just freaked me... Pls understand that its not what's happening nowadays.... Men & women within eSwatini are equal before the constitution. . Otherwise thanks for your video..... Seems great!!! After all!!

Show me your own video that you have made to highlight the beautiful attributes of your country, so richly documented by this family ? You sat around and did absolutely NOTHING but when a total stranger and foreigner had the guts and initiative to do something, rather than encourage and congragulate, you resort to diminish the work. You have NO RIGHT to criticise. Shame on you. Kindly think along these lines in future. Cheers.

Quite good as a tourist's perspective. Your comments about kids on the roadsides and how locals manage with the somewhat high prices in the supermarkets are easily understood by those who have lived there. Eswatini is a developing country with a large portion of the population engaged in subsistence agriculture. Children are expected to do some work, perhaps minding the youngest siblings. Most Swazis buy only some items at the supermarket. Where possible they grow their own vegetables, maize, and raise their own livestock.

Yeah I can see why. It’s actually probably much healthier to eat directly from the garden anyway. It’s always interesting for us to see this. We experienced the same thing in the country of Uruguay and Belize. Their grocery stores were quite expensive and hard for us to imagine how people can afford it.

Hi, love your video, what did your accommodation cost you

@16:54 Q: How do the locals do it? A: Majority of the products you purchased are mainly bought by the 100K-300K income tax paying citizens the rest of the 1,0million locals are subsistence farmers living off their farms/the land for their fresh produce. @18.03 Thatched Roofing - The grass straw /grassland reeds / water reeds or Sedge grass grows in the savannah plain which is pretty much the whole of Africa including in Eswatini. Q : Is it really expensive? A : For Westerners or Urban citizens it will be expensive because of the amount of material (Grass Reed) needed, the labour, transportation and the size of building. Western styled buildings are generally bigger compared to rural housing needs for the locals. For locals, generally the herd boy/shepards do the cutting & collection at no fee from their home lands/farms, drags the reeds home by Ox cart and use a village craftsmen to build at a fraction of the cost.

What a great video. I was wondering if you can tell me what border crossing you went through. I’m going to Swaziland from South Africa and have read some border entries are quicker than others. Thank you.

Great video guys, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I knew so little about Swaziland (however, I understand they're in the process of changing their name due to regular confusion with Switzerland?). $70USD for those groceries seems very expensive, did you ever get to the bottom of how people afford to pay those prices? Arosa was very cute, was she protecting you or do you think she just enjoyed a girls afternoon out? Keep up the great work!

Hey! Thanks for the comment. You’re right about the name change. It’s going to be eSwatini. Strange right? It will be the only country in the world to start with a lower case letter. I don’t think everyone can afford those prices. They most likely buy from the little food stands and have a different diet. We saw this in Malawi where their main dish consisted of maize (corn mashed like potatoes). I think Arosa was just happy to have nice company. She was such a sweat dog and had a little limp but managed to come along the whole way with us.

@@adorablencele5418 The food prices back home are pretty much steep for the ordinary Swazi citizen. If you understand a bit of Economics you must have heard of what we call the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Which is basically the amount of goods/services one could by with a particular currency, normally converted to a dollar equivalent. Compared to other LEDC's with such low GDP per capita, Swaziland is one of the most expensive countries to live in. Simply put, a dollar in your pocket would buy you more goods in another country than Swaziland. That's my two cents
