    GUYS, I HAVE FINALLY MADE IT TO LEBANON AND IT'S AMAZING!!!
    I've been dying to come to this tiny Middle Eastern country of Lebanon for about 5 years now, and words cannot describe how happy I have been here over the last 4 days.
    My buddy Georgio (who I met thru Snapchat like 3 years ago), has been kind enough to host me at his family's house and give me the best local experience possible in Lebanon.
    Unfortunately, Lebanon gets a very bad rep on the news as a dangerous place-- but that could not be farther from the truth. My goal with this video is to shatter all of those negative stereotypes and let you know that Lebanon is a complete dream come true.
    Have you ever been to Lebanon? Do you agree or disagree with my realizations on Lebanon? Comment your thoughts on Lebanon below!

    Great video Drew! I’m Norwegian and I got the chance to discover Lebanon when I went there as a student to learn Arabic at the American University of Beirut. It was a memorable experience in every sense. I loved everything about this gorgeous country with an incredible history that is more ancient than Greece and Rome. Lebanon was known as Phoenicia, as ancient as Mesopotamia, Egypt, Persia and Syria. The Alphabet we use today was invented by the Phoenicians in the very ancient city of Byblos, an architectural gem about 30 km north of Beirut. The Phoenicians have left a lasting mark on Humanity with the invention of the Alphabet that changed and revolutionized communication between people and nations, it’s comparable to the advent of the internet because the Egyptian hieroglyphs were too complex to be used by ordinary people and were limited to the entourage of the pharaohs. And what we call the Roman Law, was written and conceived by the Phoenicians in the city state of Berytus ( today Beirut) at least three thousand years older than Rome. The Romans used the Phoenicians’ laws of Berytus and the world knows it as the Roman Law..we even own the very name of our continent Europe to Phoenicia as Europe was taken from princess Eurp, a native of the city state of Tyre ( about 25 Kms south of Beirut), the people of Tyre gave us the name of our continent Europe and they founded Carthage with their fearless Hannibal ... and more than dozen cities in Spain alone ( Cádiz, Málaga, Alicante, Murcia, Mallorca, Menorca etc) , not to mention Portugal, Italy ( Sicily, Sardinia, Genoa, ) Malta, France, Crete, Cyprus, Turkey, Tunisia, Morocco, Libya, Algeria) .. the sea between Italy and Greece is called after the Phoenicians of Tyre ‘ il mare Tirreno’ because they had dozen port cities along that route...

    So glad this popped up on my CZcams today. Made me so happy.. and sad. Such a beautiful country and people. Hasn't deserved what is going on now. May Love and Light return peace to your lovely land and people.

    I first fell in love with Lebanon due to an Omani friend. Then I checked out Tolt's video. But your videos really hooked me. It's surprising to me that I can get a small group guide in Ethiopia, Djibouti, Tunisia, even Iran...but not Lebanon!
