Great find for cultural exploration, esp. with the Amazigh people. Since you found Jamaicans in Morocco, can you reach out to Jamaicans in Algeria, and Armenia?
In the future back in jamaica?
Jamaicans are loved everywhere. Greetings from Morocco to all Jamaicans
Give thanks my brother. Morocco is also a great place. Everyone was kind to me while visiting. I cant forget the great experience driving on a bus through the desert from Casablanca to Marakech. That's my first time in a desert. 🇲🇦🇯🇲 OneAFRICA❤🖤💚 AfricanUNITY!

@@SimoAtlas You are welcome to 🇯🇲Jamaica anytime my brother. It's my desire to see Jamaica 🇯🇲 become the 55th African state one day. It's possible. I hope the next generation will take a serious look at it.
AfricanUNITY: the ONLY option, the only SOLUTION!

I noticed that too. What a lovely couple they are. My kind of people.
I saw that too! Wonderful couple!

This couple seems like they are very much still in love with each other and with life! I love this!
👏😀
Another great interview. Love this couple. Great vibes. He absolutely loves his wife. So nice to see them have such love for each other. All the very best to them. Xavier you hit a 6 again. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🥰
Yes, that man truly loves and respects his wife. A marriage made in heaven.
Great interview and awesome couple!🇯🇲🇯🇲
Thank you for the information on Morocco 🇲🇦
Loved this
Big up Jamaica from morocco 🇲🇦
That was enjoyable discussion. Greetings from a Moroccan in Canada 👍
Great couple, great interview. Good friends Jamaicans also lived in Morocco, about 15 years ago and actually ran a Healthcare business there. They always encouraged me to go whenever I had time/money, said the same thing about accommodations food etc, and that it is a very nice place to go for short visit. This couple will do well wherever they go, they have a great attitude.
I love the call to prayer. It’s so peaceful.
Very
Xavier, I enjoyed this interview. The husband seems to be proud of his articulate and intelligent wife. I love her indomitable spirit and effervescent personality. Sending positive vibes out in the universe for their marriage to remain intact, and for them to achieve all their goals.❤
Great interview, Xavier you have competition in the smile department. Georgandez and Tanika' smiles are so real, they exult total love for each other.
Always felt connected to Morocco from a young age and never been there. Would love to go there one day.
After listening to this couple, Morocco will definitely be on my bucket list.
What a simple, but beatiful channel concept. I love this channel!
Tianka, beautiful name lovely couple. Great interview Xavier! 👍🏼
Lovely interview, Tianka and her husband are wonderful. Tianka is more exposed to the culture because of her job. Her husband stays home more hence it’s obvious that he has given her the space to speak more on the subject. However, he seem to be a more quiet person and he allows his wife to shine her beautiful personality. Brave, confident and beautiful couple.
Like Xavier I was in Spain 2019 and took the 1 day trip to Tangier Morocco via the ferry.
Love this couple continue to shine. Another great Jamaicans around the world interview
Great interview. Sorry I didn't get to Morocco while in Europe.
I love these interviews. Greetings from Ghana 🇬🇭 west Africa
Blessings my Brother. Visiting soon
@@roseb819 aww that will be great hope to see you
Ete Sen!

Great interview and exploration of Arabic and Moroccan culture.
LOVE IT.....Another wonderful interview and a beautiful couple .
Great interview. Beautiful couple,beautiful smiles… I was just grinning the whole time. Keep representing, Georgandez and Tianka .Keep living your best life.
Im a British Born Jamaican Muslim, i visited morocco last year and i was more received and hosted by the moroccan people than in any country i have ever been to in my life to date. I was invited for dinner at so many local houses who even insisted that i even stay the night, then made me breakfast in the morning, all for the love, at no costs. Best way to say, "It was like experiencing white privilege as a Black Man". Love moroccans, May Allah bless you all and the Jamaican people.
Great interview with such a lovely couple. Best wishes to the family.
I really enjoyed this interview. I was smiling so much, my face hurts.
Loved the interview. Agadir, Morocco is my favourite holiday destination 4 times and looking forward to my next visit. One luv 🇯🇲🇬🇧
Great interview, I would like to hear a bit more from her husband. They look so much in love, May you stay together until death. God bless and the smiling interviewer was on point with his gorgeous white teeth.

Love from Morocco
I've been to Morocco many times and it's beautiful. So much amazing coastline, cross cultural influences, delicious food and fantastic music.
What a wonderful experience for a young couple and their children, living in a different continent and learning a new culture and language. The educational opportunity for them & their children is priceless.
I thought our government system was slow, but Morocco is so relaxed.
Congratulations on the addition to the family 👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Beautiful family positive vibrations to them.
welcom bro and sis to your country 🇲🇦🇲🇦 a lot of love

Morocco is beautiful but the southern Morocco and northern Morocco are my favorite regions in Morocco, the villages and mountains also.

Casablanca is the best city. That is nice to see they appreciate the culture I will visit but that's about it for me. ..

Maraketch is a great place. And if you love leather goods, especially jackets, you will get really good deals. Interesting place, Morocco!
You guys needed to go further south on the continent to get the foods like in Jamaica.
Interesting interview! Also, very pleasant couple!
They are looking so good on video too

The husband could hardly get a word in it seems.....thanks for the info.
You feel sorry for him? The man is in love and if he doesn't have alot to say...so what?
I want to go to one of those places
Meadowbrook High School 👍🏽👍🏽 yeah !!
Beautiful family
She should have done the show alone because she is doing all the talking not giving the man a chance to speak
Talk chute! Smh
That's Xavier's fault for not posing questions to them individually.
😀😀😀
True. De masculating the man. So
He allows her to take charge, he is that kind of husband, not my job to judge, thats just the roll he choose. He seem very shy.
Bob Marley still global ambassador for Jamaica!🎶🎶 one ❤ on my way from Italy to Nyc stopped in Casablanca!! Love tagine and theres a Tagine restaurant in NYC😎
I'm Moroccan in Blood from Tangier 🔥🔥🔥 You guys are welcome for ever in our country. Did you guys from the Ganja country trier the Moroccan Hasjh 🤣🤣
They seem to like living in Morocco. I enjoyed visiting several cities in Morocco but couldn't get around liking the meat hanging out plus the disparity between rich & poor. Due to religious beliefs the distinct treatment of women & men clearly visible. As tourists walking around after dinner the all men establishments present. Love the shopping & bargaining experience.
Great interview how can I get in touch with the couple in Morocco?
Pastries are big in Morroco because of the French influence, the French colonisation.
سلام عليكم ✌🌲🌵🌴🌳🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦👍
MammaAfrika!🎇
ارض الله للجميع
Swift justice! Ase!
Intelligentl lady from jamaica
I've tried camel. It's like a very chewy beef.
Love the dynamic between both of them - great couple - how they allow each personality to be authentic - great insights on country
