MsMoons, that safe "jidka" the milk lady used to sit must have been another city. Surely, Mogadihsu wasn't a safe place when you were 4 yrs old!

It was definitely Mogadishu. I know where im from. My grandpa and all still live there y'know.

 

I meant 'safe' as in .. you belong somewhere, idon't feel like belong here, dhuulka gaalada, y'know what im saying?

idk i can't really explain, besides i was just a kid.

 

And i know it wasn't THAT safe .. my mum told me i almost got killed a few times .. don´t remember that though. I remember the good times, which im gonna hold on to

I thought 1994 Mogadisho was not any safer than it's today, but I could be wrong.

I am not known to be emotional chap, but seeing these pics, I was overcome by intense emotion- longing for the homeland! Although I live in Kenya these days and I see alot of Somalis hadana, this makes me home sick!.

 

I might be off to Mogadishu soon though I can't sleep there (or go to my usual old haunts)for security reasons, nevertheless I am intensely looking forward to it.

Abu-S, please bring back pictures of Mogadishu to share with us.

 

MMA, nice video.

Xeebta Jazira

Every saturday we used to go to Jazira beach and stay all day. It is one of the best memories I have of Somalia.

Bas kamid ah gaadiidka Roome. Obviously the bus' route is 'Somalia' since there is a 'Somalia' street (Via Somalia) in Roome.

 

Xamar had Via Rome, marka waala isku mahadcelinoyaa. Xamar, too, had Via Liberia, and in turn, Monrovia, the Liberian capital, has

Go Soomaaliya, indeed.

[Somalina]

^^^Qaahira xataa street Soomaliya la dhaho ayaa ku yaala dhinaca Muhandeseen.

[Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar]

Reer Qaahira ahayd miyaa? Ma ogeynee.

 

Soomaaliya wixii Soomaalida ama Soomaaliya mahadiyo ayee u mahadnaqi jirtay. Saas ugu wacan filaa Qaahira jid Soomaaliya loogu magacdaray inay ku taalo maadaama iskool Jamaal Cabdinaasir Xamar ku yaalee asagana.

[Somalina]

lol...meel aan soo marin waa yartahay. Masrida iyo Sudanta waxyaabo badan ayey u qabteen soomalida, haddii laga hadlo waxbarasho ilaa heer jaamacadeed. Sidoo kale caafimaadka waa almost free, also businessyo badan oo ay ka mid yihiin internet cafe and xawaalado are starting to boom in Cairo. Waa marka keliya aan ka faa'iideysano being a member of the AL.

[Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar]

Reer Suudaan yaraantey ilaa hadda ogaa waxee u qabteen Soomaalida maxaa yeelay walaalahey aadi jiray, waxbarashonimo u aadi jiray. Suudaan iyo Bakistaan waxbarasho u aadi jireen, sawiradee kusoo galeen lee arki jiray. Mid kamid ah walaalahey Urdu ayeeba ku hadli jirtay oo Karaaji (Karachi) kasoo baratay.

 

Soomaalida iyo Suudaan dowladihii ka jiray aad iskugu dhawaayeen dhaqan bandhigeed, waxbarasho iyo waxaas dhan wey isdhaafan jireen.

 

Masarna saas camal ahayd, siiba waaguu Jamaal C/naasir noolaa.

 

Xamar goormaa kugu dambeysay adi? Saa ugu soo fiigtay maku noqon filaa? Ee markaas anaa kaa geesisan oo mar indhaha qabsaday aan dalaq iri in 2003.

[Somalina]

1991... Soomaliya weligey si toos ma u joogin hence the luqada liiq liiqaneyso. Caqli aan dalaq ku dhaho ma heysanin after the civil war, plus adiga wiil ayaa tahay so it easy for you to take off meeshaad doonto. Aniga mar hore ayaan adi lahaa, laakiin hooyadey ayaa ii diidan.
