This video has been very helpful! I always wanted to go to Seychelles but perhaps I will check out Zanzibar instead because I wanted to experience my people's culture. I'm not looking to vacation in Europe like places, respectfully. 👀
The white s.afrikan rayyyceests love Seychelles, so I'm not surprised that you faced rayceeesm there
Zanzibar is like Seychelles premium but more affordable
say-shelz not sea-shelz that said loved the video except I felt like you should have highlighted their amazing beaches more. Anse Major ftw
Beautiful
I am Sick of Discrimination of People WHO are Actually Native or Heritage of Africa and others are given everything,And are known to have committed some atrocities against humanity 🤔
Beautiful pipo, but if they are not welcoming at the hotel then id rather not go to feel sad for the entire trip❤
Thanks for sharing these videos bro we are travelling with you virtually- great work!!!!
You should have gone to zanibar …thats where u wanted to be and yes its cheaper …
Bro how can you think Seychelles was in Asia ?
Totally Agree
I was thinking of visiting but no I changed my mind, nothing special about this place, its just a complicated identity island, they are not an fricans, Indian or European, they said that they are African, but they are treating black visitors poorly, I think they are confused 😅
Wearing sign of submission muzzle 😷🤢
Very helpful! I want to be amongst my people, not colonizers. They disrupt the entire energy of everything. I am disappointed any place in the Motherland would allow or encourage their ongoing invasion.
I am pleased to find your video… you are a real tourist/ explore. You were handed lemons, and you made lemonade…that is what traveling is all about… creating new ventures/experiences
Thanks again
It looks so wholesome and peaceful it's just a pity that they have such a negative perspective on Africa as Africans
I love that you included the festival
Seyshelles fits my aestetic so well actually
I really liked all the things you didn't like ALTHOUGHZ it is rather overpriced
Thank you, this was very real! Yes the culture I would say is nearly non existent. The music far from anything like that strikes as a real hit to my hips. Stepping on any other African soil I feel the urge to dance to the local sound. But what is the "local" sound in Mahe? The sad reality is that is was a huge hang out for spies and wheeler dealers during the cold war. Naturally corrupt money can buy a piece of paradise anywhere but doesn't add to culture.
It's a shame no where on this planet has a Wakanda like place where Black people rule, colorism isn't an issue, and European or Asian rule/disruption has never existed.
Man everything about Seychelles is Caribbean; I am from St. Lucia and this can easily pass as a St. Lucia video lol
Work on your English it sucks!!!!
Anyone see mermaid's
Its interesting that the first thing that light skinned girl wanted to point out was that she was "mixed" and "different" than other blacks. Why is that mindset so common among African countries with light skinned blacks?
So I’m assuming based on this video……Zanzibar???
Seychelles is magnificent. It's not cheap. The locals don't want back packer, youth hostel, idiot spring breaker types. It's expensive for a reason. Warning to women travelers, the men are extremely aggressive sexually. It's a group of islands and everyone knows everyone. Avoid "harmless" flirting. It's taken seriously. If you're walking at night, walk at least in groups of 3.
Some really great people as well.
So sweet
Based on the comments I will never visit seychelles. I really thought it will be good.
Home🇸🇨🇸🇨
Seychellois speak creole. The only other creole speaking nation that we understand is the Mauritians. We have one accent & no tribes. Yes, our creole is derived mostly from the French language with extremely few Malagasy & Swahili words. I know only the word, “salam” which means “ regards or greetings. I think it is a Swahili word.
Today I was watching a documentary about, “STORY OF… CHEESE” on Netflix. The man who resides in Switzerland was speaking in French. I guess he is from the part that borders France. He mentioned the word, “ Akoz” which I thought was only a creole word. I know only, “parce-que” in French meaning, “because.”
Maybe it is due to those priests who emigrated to the Seychelles to work within the educational & church institutions. Now, I will find out if they use the word, “Akoz” in France, if God’s will.
They call creole, “patois” in the Caribbean islands.
We also have English words such as; Fridge, stove, cooker, computer, bus stop.
Someone mentioned that he was searched because he is black.
We love to judge first before finding out the truth. The only reason you were searched is because they mistakenly thought you were a citizen. Locals luggage’s are usually searched because they have to pay some money for goods that they bought abroad. My husband was the same. They even started talking in creole to him, they realised their mistake when he could not answer. They apologised & off he went away. I kept quiet. I don’t I should have paid anyway as I live abroad.
We should avoid criticising too much. It causes a lot of confusion.

You can tell when a person is not telling the truth. Why don’t you let us know the name of the accommodation that you booked. You could have gone to the authorities & made your report. They would have looked into it. You also mentioned that when you asked questions, you didn’t get any answers. Why don’t you tell us more about it. What was the matter.
I think you felt out of place because you said that you were the only black people at the hotel. What’s wrong with that? What did you expect? If you want luxury you have to book into new hotels or those resorts away from Mahé.
It is not pronounce Cchelles. It is as if you are going to say the word, “Say” but not “ C”.
It is not in Africa, it is thousands of miles away from the Eastern coast of Africa. It is nearer to the African continent & that is the reason that Seychelles is part of Africa. However, we are not Africans, we are creoles. All the Africans are dead, they are long gone. Finish. All the coloured people in Seychelles are a mixture of the three races; African, Asian & Europeans. Why is it so hard for you to understand that? We are not ashamed of being Africans. You cannot put a label on us that’s false. There are no more Africans left, just expatriates only. I have a feeling that you felt out of place because you were the only black tourists. You should have felt good, look at you, all the rest were white & you were standing out from the crowd. Isn’t that awesome.
I am Seychellois, I had a maternal Chinese grandfather, a maternal Indian great grandfather, a paternal European great grandmother & a great great Malagasy grandfather. The latter married a mulatto from the island of Bourbon which is now call, “ Reunion Island”, an overseas French department. Am I African? All the Seychellois are mixed up like me. I hope you understand now. We simply do not like being told what we are not. Full stop.
