  • I travelled to Oman as I've always been curious about the culture in the Gulf. This is one of the episodes from my series in Middle East where I explain why Oman, one of the most underrated countries should be on your bucket list.

    I grew up in Oman.I was there for 10 years. It's so underrated. It's an unspoilt part of the Middle East. It's not as over the top as Dubai but it has so much heart & culture. I'm surprised you didn't go to Salalah.

    Greetings, Ale, another lovely video. I really loved following your vacation to Oman. Omanis have long been known as sea masters. I was hoping to see you in traditional Omani costume, complete with a turban and a dagger around the waist, but maybe next time if you're still in Oman. I'm also glad to know you like dates; we eat them every day. Keep up the wonderful job, and I look forward to watching your next video.

    I lived in Oman for quite a few years. Your video is nice, but there's soooo much more to see, that you would need a whole series!! The one thing that stays the same wherever you go, is the nice people you meet! Btw... those in the Mutrah port were not cruise ships... they belong to the Sultan and the royal family... but cruise ship do stop by Muscat and allow tourists to visit the city, just not the ones you were filming😊

    Hey there! I am glad you're enjoying your trip here in Oman. I am a Syrian uni student and a fellow matero ;) wanted to clarify that no local (or expat) in Oman actually drinks maté except for other Syrians/Lebanese, and I have to explain what yerba maté is everytime I meet a new person. It is kinda unfortunate because of the very limited yerba maté brand availability and I am yet to find a place that sells an actual gourd. I have some ceramic "gourds" from Syria but that's about it. I am curious to whether you have an idea whether gourds can be sold/even crafted here because I am so eager to get/make one. Please enjoy your stay and have fun, cheers!

    • @AleSalvino
      @AleSalvino  Před rokem +1

      Hey Vito, thank you so much for the feedback and clarifying! I want to visit Syria and Lebanon this year to learn more about the mate culture there, it's just incredible! In Argentina we have tons of gourds in any shape/way you can imagine, in Europe there are a few places but not as much. There might be some online shops but not sure about the delivery. Ceramic gourd is certainly not the same, "calabaza" is the way to go, flavour is a bit different. If you have Instagram, add me there, maybe I can try to bring you one if I manage to visit this year!

    Oman is great if you wanna stop by for a limited time vacation
    However, I advise you all to not move there... because there's a lot of Racism which people want to not talk about or avoid
    People are losing their jobs due to something called "Omanization" and the conditions for survival if you're a foreigner are very harsh
    In America , people can stand up to racism and even protest.... over in Oman people aren't even allowed to protest or speak for themselves...
    The Government supports locals and will do nothing for foreigners , I advise you all once again... go there for a Vacation but do not go there for Job opportunities or a "better life"...
