Folks, that's everything for today. I hope you've enjoyed and uh the food was tasty. I see you next time. Vlogger Zupa. Cheerio. Hello. Hello. This is your boy Vlogger Zupa. Welcome to the new series from Africa, Zimbabwe. I have 3 weeks to travel around this country. The size of Zimbabwe is about the size of the UK, but it's only inhabited by 14 million people. 80% of that population is Shaa tribe. And we will look closely at them. We will look at their oral traditions, music, food, and of course, night life. Snuff tobacco is a big part of Sha culture. I had the experience to use it myself. Find out if I've connected with my ancestors, ancestors, totems, and spirituality is a big thing in Sha culture. So is the music. A traditional instrument called serves as the telephone to the spirits. The beer has been estimated to exist in Shauna society for the past thousand years. It is a mystical instrument full of tradition and history. The repatory dates itself back many centuries and it's only passed down orally. I was very fortunate to meet the right people who explained to me complicated history of this region. Zimbabwe and street food is amazing. Watch the episode where I eat chicken and cow feet. At Lake Chiver, I've met Gary who shown me his birds and told me interesting history of his Dutch side of the family. I've also met Ian Darl and Alex whose stories were as incredible. Make sure you watch the interviews I've had with them. Also, definitely watch the episode about the Johan Masawa church, which is a phenomena of Zimbabwean church. It is a church without a church. Yes, they pray in nature. 30% of Zimbabwan territory is covered with national parks or protected areas. Animals are protected by the common belief of totems. But it is the people of Zimbabwe that made the biggest impression on me. They were very kind and helpful and I never felt unsafe. Subscribe to the channel and watch the series from Africa.
