Totally mad I missed the opportunity to make a "Order Lomé-ein To-go" joke in the food section. Oh well.
This was an episode I had to do on-location. Togo has something very unique happening right now, and (despite the incredibly frustrating bureaucratic registrations and getting arrested for flying a drone) I had such an amazing time and saw the huge potential this small country has to thrive. Plus I totally ran crossed the narrowest (Accessible) Salient in Africa. HUGE thanks to Gilles for everything!

As a Slovak person, I never knew about Czechoslovakia trying to ''colonize'' Togo. That is absolutely crazy lol

Thanks Barbs.. you’re one of the most original and educational content creators out there and I’ve been following you since the beginning. Thanks for all you do and for inspiring many others (including myself) to begin their own journeys in educational and fun content creation. ÁNIMO!

I’m a Ghanaian-American, and I always saw Togo as a cool place to visit because it’s right on the east of Ghana.But about 4 years ago I found out that my great grandmother on my dad’s mom’s side, was Togolese. So what happened was, my Great grandfather was Ghanaian and my great grandmother was Togolese. They had my grandmother, that made her half Togolese. She had my dad, that makes him a quarter Togolese. Then my sisters and I came along, and that made us an eighth Togolese. Thank you Geography Now 🇬🇭 🇹🇬

What separates Paul from other content creators is his depth. Depth of research, depth of relationships, depth of information, depth of respect all while keeping a light, fun, fast-paced, breezy tone. He could so easily mail it in on the small, obscure African countries and other remote places but this is actually where he and his channel shine brightest. Most Western people (including myself) know next to nothing about Togo, so these videos really are an introduction to an entire country and its complex and varied culture, physical landscape, political structure and international standing. So excited to see he's near 3 million subscribers. He's WORKED for every last one, never resorting to gimmicks and drama to build his brand. Rock on, Barbs!

I've been long amazed at the political and geographic makeup changes that have existed during the past 50 years in Africa. I'm happy to hear Togo seems to be doing well and living free and independent.

Togo's most famous son, Emmanuel Adebayor, has the best celebration in football history - when he scored for Man City v Arsenal (his old team) he ran the whole length of the pitch to celebrate in front of the Arsenal fans, who had been shouting abuse at him all game - well worth a watch if you haven't seen it...

I love Paul speaking French, I speak French, English and Dutch and it is hilarious to hear English speaking people speak French. But he did it very good! Good job Barbs! Greets from Belgium! <3

[tripleq]

Much love from your western neighbour of Ghana to all Togolese people! 🇬🇭🇹🇬❤️

[tripleq]

As a Ghanaian, I immidiately tuned in once I heard about the Ewe tribe and fufu
🇬🇭🇹🇬❤️

[vex_mistaken]

i remember the 3 neighboring countries by thinking of the phrase "I'm ghana togo to benin" not perfect but helps me, also the shape of the countries look like their name.

[kwamenyame]

Ayyyeeee Togo… great country and lovely people. Ghana will always love Togo

[The_Tired_Void]

A Togolese here! I'm from the Central Parts, Sokode (6 Carrefour) to be exact. And you didn't add Adossa-Gadao as one of the festivals! I"ve actually tried to participate in one of its event where they would slash and rub a sword on their stomachs(after lathering it with herbs) to show off their power, similar to the Fire Dance(Which is something I actually haven't heard of from where I live).

Ohter than that, I learned more about my country from this video than I expected lol. Though that one that bothered me was how foods were pronounced...

[isaiasabinadisosagarcia]

We love hibiscus in Mexico too!! We call it "agua de jamaica", it's very refreshing! Hahah I'm so excited cause Mexico and Togo has something in common cause I've always been fascinated by Togo and all of Africa! I'd to visit all of those beautiful places and eat those fabulous looking foods 😋
Much love! 🇲🇽 🇹🇬
