Khayr Posted December 18, 2013 White people bagpack cause they have a universal passport aka Their White privilege Somalis can not afford to do that. We don't have a "universal passport". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mad_Mullah Posted December 18, 2013 Most people here do though, British/American etc. It's just that our mindset is lazy unlike the creative Cadaans thats why you'll always see Somalis from the first generation go to countries just to visit other families and the second generation go to the usual spots like Morocco, Dubai, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khayr Posted December 18, 2013 Bagpacking is a privilege and one that is used by selfish, rich and privileged individuals. While the rest of the world starves, a bagpacker spends thousands to peak at those "starving people" during the day and by night, sip a latte and write a blog about their experience. I have seen countless Somalis get rejected at airports even when they carried passports of western countries. In the colonial era, the colonisers would often bagpack to your "home land" and return to theirs with zebra heads as their mantles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spartacus Posted December 18, 2013 world would be better place if money spend unnecessary backpacking and luxury travel would spend to feed starving people! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N.O.R.F Posted December 18, 2013 There is nothing wrong with travelling and experiencing new cultures and meeting new people. Such experiences give people perspective. What one does with his/her money isn't your concern guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stop playing a victim, at least it's better if they see these poor countries by themselves as their soul will grow because of it rather than going to a 5 star hotel, clubbing, beaches and the usual. You're the definition of a bitter hater. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
