As a Zimbabwean 🇿🇼, I started watching this channel since the Argentina episode and couldn't wait until you got to my country. Wow, time does fly as we're finally reaching it. I was also fascinated by Atlases too when I was a kid. Was drawn to them as I wanted to know where the colourful airliners that used to fly into Zimbabwe in 80s & 90s came from and how far they had flewn to get to us (I'm a bit of an aviation geek lol). I travel as much as I can and Geography Now has been a great resource as a starting point when I research destinations.

I think taiwan and kosovo really deserve dedicated full fledged in studio episodes. Taiwan in everyway is an indapended state and typical western style republic. The only difference is Bejing doesnt want them to be reconized. Kosovo functions as well as a partially reconized balkan state can, which is suprisingly well. Been warching for years, since China I think, keep up the great work.

I've been with this channel for the past 7 years and I will stick with it when the countries are over. Geography and also history are the subjects I excelled at. I was always looking at atlases and maps as well when I was younger (now 46) and I still look up stuff on Google. Congrats Barb for all your success. Much respect and love from Canada.

I had the same interests and curiosity about the world as you when I was a child so I studied Anthropology. Now, I am a diplomat for the United Nations and have lived and worked in 10 different countries over the last 15 years, and travelled to many more. Fun fact: I always watch your video as part of my “study” prior to an interview for a post in a new country. You are like the Cliffs notes for Geography. It’ been particularly useful for the more “obscure” countries such as Gabon for example. Great work!

Essentially, you have to start at the very bottom and be ready to spend years in remote/unsafe environments before it gets better.

Just as you I love to see territorial disputes and the history behind them. Best wishes and congrats for the coming this far!

I was wondering if you’d redo the older episodes with the way you do episodes now because I’m sure people from Afghanistan and Fiji would love a 25-30 min instead of a 6-12 min video.

Excited for this channel to come to a close as I have been invested it feels like since day 1. Such a fun thing to see a channel like yours grow and change along with myself growing and changing!! Thanks for making an amazing series, your creativity will take you far as a informational story driven travel host.

You will forever hold the title of the Geography Guru! Your unique contribution is irreplaceable. From my own journey as a Geography Teacher, I can attest to the profound inspiration you've provided, not just to me but also to countless students. This legacy is an enduring testament to your impact. It's quite remarkable to contemplate that the country episodes are nearing their conclusion. Your ability to comprehensively explore such a vast array of nations is truly impressive.

Whoa. You want to know something weird? I was also placed in special education, but it was mostly because of my autism. I had troubles with my motor issues and other troubles when I was younger, but I didn't feel like I was really learning anything in there, so I told my parents, and they moved me to a different class. I think that my life would've been far more different than had I not told them, and your backstop for this channel relates to me on such a personal level, it's unimaginable. Keep doing amazing, Barb! I love your content!

You kept me alive during the pandemic, Barbs. You are the best KZread channel there is.

I remember seeing the Albania episode on my recommended page years ago, and middle school me thinking that a youtube channel dedicated to describing all the countries seemed like such a great idea. Years later, to see you so successful and able to do something that you and so many of us enjoy, is heartwarming. Wishing you all the best Barbs, very happy for you.

It’s crazy how this channel is still going strong! I started watching in middle school and I’m in college now. Keep up the good work!

Globe Trekker is a true classic! One thing I would love to see is the 'Country Video' format restarting the alphabet and updating regularly so all countries have the same excellent standard. Even if Barb or the regular segment hosts step aside and produce other content, it's a solid format and a great resource that can be revisited without getting old when the info is outdated or new segments are added.

Barbs let me start off by saying that as an Armenian-Iranian, I absolutely loved this channel, and honestly what you said sounds amazing and I cannot wait, the only thing that I would really appreciate is, honestly, I know that you said you “don’t wanna do the studio thing” and you wanna go see everything for yourself, but I think it would absolutely fascinating, educational and cool if you (for example) did a “country coverage” on a place like Wallis and Futuna or Niue OR ANY OTHER AUTONOMOUS REGION, point being I know that the smaller the countries the less information there is out there but IN MY humble opinion, that is what makes Geography Now, Geography Now. Like I said I think the ideas for the future of the channel sound amazing and I’m going to continue and support you guys, but I’d love to see the coverages of the regions and territories and what not as well, it’s just that, that’s what made this channel THE CHANNEL for me, because think about it, who else is going to make a 30 minute video (which I don’t think is long, just the right amount) about St. Pierre and Miquelon on KZread? Overall, I hope you see this, I love this channel and content, either way it’s you’re channel and you make what you know is best and if you don’t enjoy doing what you do then it’s not right.

Been following the channel since the early to mid B’s. A friend of mine that I no longer have any contact with jokingly sent me the Australia episode asking me if it was accurate (because I’m an Aussie, lol) and that sent me down the rabbit hole and into looking deeper into the world we inhabit.

However, some more war torn places like Western Sahara and Nagorno-Karabakh might prove a bit more difficult. Either way, I know I'll love to see what you have in store

Thank you Barbs and the entire team that you've amassed over the last decade. Been watching since I was in middleschool so about 8 years now. Thanks for inspiring me to pick up an interest in the globe.

You are so relatable! Love you and your show. Perfect watching/ learning during the pandemic. Good luck with your new stuff!!!

I first found your channel five years ago and as a geography lover also this became one of my favorites.

Been here since Germany, I remember watching and then binge watching the previous ones. Always loved it and as a teacher who dealt with MUN events in junior high I always recommended my students to watch your channel for their info. You all in the team are great and have grown so much! I’ll follow you guys until there’s no more Internet in the world! ❤

Your plan sounds fantastic and I'm glad to hear about you continuing the channel! You are a great documentarian and a story teller, and in my opinion it makes your channel a staple of youtube and your content will be great no matter the format.

I will continue supporting you no better what you do on the channel

Thank you so much Barbs! My family and I have loved watching and learning from all your videos on each country!!! Can't wait to see what you do next!!! Cheers!!!

Barb, I cannot tell you how much I related to this episode. My passion in life has always been the intersection of history x geography. My interest in geopolitics would have never intensified in 2015/16 when I first started watching Geography Now. I was obssesed with your videos, and watched them incessantly (binge-watch). I am also a visual learner and you have given this community so much of your time and adult life. I am really grateful to have come across you when I did. I love all your friends and their little stories and the platform you have given them too. I am so excited to see what you do after Zimbabwe!

Thank you for all this years of work, I'm not a geography fan and still I end up watching every video. The way you share all this knowledge, sometimes controversial topics, in a friendly and open manner is a gift. I'm glad that you continue, you really seem to be born to do this. And besides travelling around the globe you could do a Geography "then" episode or section with past countries and borders, I'll leave the idea in case you find it worth it.

I really enjoyed this. Thank you, Geography now guy.

So inspiring, I love this channel and I love geography. Thank you so much for the amazing content, Barbs

Your contribution to the geography lovers here on KZread is like no other. Probably the best format ever (especially nowadays with all the segments), a lot of charisma and humor from the entire team, which makes your videos fun to watch, even for the people who are not really into geography. You should be very proud of yourself and your team and I know I am looking forward your future endeavours!

You go for it Barbs! Rooting for you! Yes, there are many KZreadrs out there, but few who are genuine, true people. This is my favorite channel by far!

I just want to say thank you for your time and effort. I have been following your channel for years and I have learnt so much about the world.

I’ve been watching you for years!! So excited for Venezuela. 🎉

Keep going man, we LOVE you. Also, the "flag/fan" episodes are so cool, I don't know why it has low views !!

Time flies, isn't it? Thank you for keep doing this all this time. You're already become a part of our journey in KZread

Im so excited to see the next phase on Geography now!

your channel woke up my passion for geography and im so grateful for that

I was worried the channel was going to die....but I'm so thankful to hear your new plans. I love travelogue content, and really love your travel videos. I've known about you for many years and I'm thankful to see that you'll keep going into the future!

I grew up with this channel and I love it, I helped with the Moroccan episode and it will be amazing to have you here and show you the beauty of Morocco

Kudos for all the progress. I've being watching since Brazil's episode.

Bravo, 👏 One of my favorite KZread channels!
