- A cinema, where women can go, not a room with DVD's, full of old men.

- A tennis court

- A tour bus

- A shopping center where you don't get harassed

Can someone not run away with my suitcase at the airport, I can carry my own bag. Thank you.

They are only trying to help and make some money at the same time.

 

I would only request that the eaterie at Berbera beach be improved. That place (Berbera) has so much potential.

[nuune]

^^^ I think Berbera would get alot of improvements soon, thanks to the new American base there :mad:

[Malika]

^Wasnt that American base there before,during Siad's era?

 

North,some have already claim the beach fronts,just with time,there shall be resorts there[inside informatiion.lol]

[nuune]

No Malika, it was the Russian base, and was expelled from there in 1977, but it wasn't mainly a millitary base, it was Russian families who habited there and lived with the locals.

 

This new American base has different purpose!

[Blessed]

The only thing getting in my way of visiting the place is those rickety plans. Urgh!

[Nephissa]

A friend of mine went to Hargeisa last fall and married there. Hargeisa is beautiful city.

Somaliland is bigger than Hargisa yo, and there are tons of places in Somaliland which was so breath-taking.
