- Our road trip around Zimbabwe - Last summer I got to take Dan back to my beautiful home country for the first time. It was so good to be back home after 11 years, and we were so inspired by Zimbabwe's natural beauty, and traditional crafts.
Soundtrack composed and produced by Dan, featuring live vocal performances from Zimbabwe.

I’m in awe!! This is sooooo beautiful. I’m from South Africa, so the landscape feels familiar, but your “camera eye” on everything is incredible! This is such beautiful storytelling
This is so kind, thank you so much for taking the time to watch it and leave such an encouraging comment! 💛
I couldn't have said it any better. You've put a lot of hard work in to this. Everything comes together just Beautiful.
Southern Africa is the same. Share many languages and hence some names and surnames are the same as well❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You should visit Zim will drive you around
Your voice is like from TV documentaries + the good editing= AMAZING! I have just subscribed.
I agree
True
I'm Kenyan 🇰🇪 and i really enjoyed this video/documentary. Its so relaxing and fun to watch. Zimbabwe is beautiful.
Thank you for this beautiful video, it made my heart soar. We are planning a trip to Zim in October to show my Canadian husband my homeland.
I grew up in Northern Ontario, Canada and I've always felt like I've been missing a part of myself. My father wasn't in the picture so I was raised by my white mother. Being in a predominantly white community, I also never knew any black people growing up and I felt very uncomfortable with my appearance because the beauty standards were white. I hope one day I'll get to visit Ghana and specifically the village where my dad is from. This video is beautiful, I only hope my return to Africa will be as wonderful
Africa awaits you sweetheart. We love you
Am originally from Ghana and grew up in Ontario now in Edmonton. You will have a great time when you do go we have similar landscape and beautiful sights and wonderful nature depending where you visit but overall wonderful where-ever you go and experience in Ghana and anywhere in Africa.
You will not be disappointed. Africa is magnificent. The people are wonderful. I've lived my whole life in Southern Africa, except going back to my ancestral roots in the UK for 3 years. A good experience which only made me appreciate living in Africa even more. Do some living in Africa mate.
I feel you, I'm mixed too and lived in a area where besides me there was only 4 other black people and 2 of them where my siblings, in school bullying usually hit the people that stand out and I was bullied like crazy for being darker skinned, my mom was in Zimbabwe trying to collect money to go get me and my siblings back from my dad, I ended up going to her in Zimbabwe and loved it, I felt so at home. Meeting my grandparents was out of this world, I met my grandmother for the first time since I was born. I literally cried like crazy. If you get the chance GO! I learnt so much about my country/culture/history.
This is beautiful. An African story from an African perspective. Thank you for putting us on the map. Proudly Zimbabwean🥰
I honestly want to cry. This is making me feel so nostalgic and homesick. Which is funny because I've never left Zimbabwe. This just reminds me of how I used to experience this country when I was a kid.
This is really beautiful, thank you so much for watching!! 💛
😂
Yo not alone
This is a beautiful Video. Love your storytelling!
Indeed
Hie Tayo, hw're you man?'
aaahh shoot! Tayo is in the house!!!
Hold up. THE TAYO loves your storytelling😊....
Its really good for real. Takes me back to the days of Chionisos movies etc
as a zimbo who hasnt been home in 16 years, this was so good to watch. thank you for capturing our home so beautifully~
Haven't been in 16 years as well handei tese
handei kumba sha?lol im in Europe only been away from home for 3 years but im already home sick. cant imagine you..
Your country is very nice with beautiful landscape
Money comes and goes guys, visit home.
@@TM-ln9he Taura hako, ini i hadn't been home in 5 years but i recently went back for just 2 weeks and believe me, i have never felt such peace and happiness. Kumba kunodiwa guys. That's the gospel i am now preaching. Let's go home here and there guys, money will surely come and go
I am born and raised in America but i absolutely love Momma Africa. I live in Tanzania and have been here since 2020. This definitely feels more like my home than America has ever felt.
Gorgeous storytelling, took a trip to Zimbabwe without even leaving my living room tysm :)
Thank you for showcasing Zimbabwe in such a beautiful way ❤
🌴☀️I am so filled with emotions, I’ve never been to the continent & as a person of color who’s ancestors were taken from somewhere in Africa, to then be born in the west it is a true gift to see one of the numberless truths demonstrated in this video of how my true home REALLY LOOKS. Thank you for sharing this with me, my heart is full & I needed this☀️🌴
you're allowed to visit or even to start a new life here
This was healing on so many levels. I did not realize how much home sick I’ve been after a decade of living abroad. Not only am I now planning a road trip of my own when I finally go back, but whenever my friends and colleagues ask me what Zim is like, your vlog is what I will be showing them. There truly is no place like home. Thank you Mutsa and Dan for sharing your journey with us. 🇿🇼❤
Wow I cried in the part with the red clay. Such a well done lil documentary of your travels!
Its nice to see a happy Zimbabwean among the perenially bitter lot on the internet who makes us feel like its a sin to be proud of your country. I have always been proud of my culture and roots, doing the best I can to portray the positives. Culture is a separate thing from the Economy and Politics. Loving your culture/roots doesn't mean you also love the politics.Culture is who you are, where you come from, your motherland, identity and roots. You cannot wash away your Zimbabweanness. People will always ask you where you are from, and your conscience will give in. Because how long can a man pretend to be what he is not.
What great insights of wisdom. Your words are very wise , we need more people like you ❤❤❤ Thank you I have gained by just reading your positive words, True a community of love love love❤
you could not have said it better fami, i love being zimbo and everything about it,good and bad.i am zimbabwes number 1 fan,i am too proud and obbssessed with being zimabwean
Thank you for sharing this, it really resonates! 💛
the politics and economy is everywhere I hear it from Ghanaian's in Canada a lot especially in the tropical stores here.
Excellent video and true storytelling i was born and raised in Zimbabwe till i was 40 years now in UK for the past 24 years but always go back home to visit my extended family really enjoy food love from my people and friends i love the friendship of Zimbabwean people across the country very kind and giving
One people one voice one love 🥰
I don't remember ever shedding a tear watching a vlog but this made cry. I will come back when I have composed myself and try to put into words the many emotions and feelings that engulfed and overwhelmed me as I watched this incredible story. Thank you daughter of the soil.
You and Dan have made me realize how beautiful my country is....thank you Mutsa!!
Thank you so mush the scenery was absolutely 💯 breathtaking. I am an African American who is a senior, who may never ever be able to visit Zimbabwe however, thanks to your awesome coverage I am truly blessed because of your amazing photos. You gave me the opportunity to see the people and the culture the animals and the incredible landscapes. This has given me the opportunity to share with the younger people in my family if I am not able to visit they can. Bless you and your beautiful family.❤❤❤
One thing about Zimbabwean people, they will feed you. I stayed there for two years good loving people.
Watching from South Africa...
Proudly Zimbabwean ❤
I'm 🇿🇲 Zambian, and this was beautiful to watch. Stunning content .
Ubuntu is Africa and indeed Zimbabwe is beautiful. Great Journey and beautifully told.
Awwww this is so beautiful. Proudly Zimbabwe 🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼. Also that mug is so beautiful
Wow. No words can describe how beautiful this vlog was. As a Zimbabwean living outside the country, I couldn’t help but feel the emotions. Thank you for sharing your trip and experience with us ❤
This video is put together soo perfectly. Definitely not skipping any ADs so that you get money for this because this is soooo perfect!🤩
You captured the beauty of Zimbabwe very well. Thank you for portraying our country in such a positive light
As a fellow Zimbabwean, this filled my heart with so much joy! I hope to take my husband too someday! This was spectacular!❤️
"I hope to take my white husband "*
Just why is it necessary what if he’s Jamaican and black , it does not matter what colour
Absolutely love everything about this video. The sound design, the production and the story!! Thanks for sharing with us x
I felt so emotional watching this entire video. As a Zimbabwean who grew up outside of Zimbabwe, I cried after realising how undoubtedly BEAUTIFUL my home country is. From the pottery, the music, the people, and my word, to the breathtaking landscapes. This was brilliantly filmed. You are greatly appreciated for sharing such a masterpiece with us...
God bless you!
I just came to say that your voice is so soothing and smooth. It was made for storytelling! Sending love from the Caribbean 😊
Your husband is so cool. I like how he blends in with the culture and gets lost within it. He’s one of us. Do more and more videos of you guys around the whole country. New sub here…
How is 'one of us'? He is European and dones a hippie hair style. He is definitely European.
@@jaycee9752 she understood what I said…as for you, it flew over your head.
@mandlas.4305 clap 👏🙌👌😳
Very true he just looked comfortable from day one
This is just beautiful
The video was perfectly made
Zimbabwe is indeed beautiful
This was the most incredible vlog I've ever came across
Wow! Zimbabwe is beautiful!!
Not really bro tbh, I'm from there
Beautiful travel vlog … the editing, the background music, everything
I've never seen a video which captures Zimbabwe's beauty so well, you somehow made me feel nostalgic for the country I live in😂. Thank you for this♥
Wow! This is such a big encouragement for us, thank you so much!! It really is an honour to share Zimbabwe's beauty. 💛
Facts! I really feel like going back today 😂
I'm Cameroonian and went to Zimbabwe one year ago.
I'm falling in love with this country so amazing, so cool.
I really appreciate.
Thanks a lot for your touching storytelling.
Listening to you is so therapeutic. Your voice is very soothing. As I watched and listened to you talk, I never wanted it to stop 🙏🏾
BRB. going to watch this 10 times over.... soo beautiful, i could not stop smiling!
Thank you soo much!! 💛💛💛
Wow i like that.... soon I'm getting married to a South African man i wish he'll enjoy visiting my country Zimbabwe
As a Zimbabwean by marriage😊, I absolutely loved this documentary of the beautiful country that is Zimbabwe and it's lovely people.❤
first time coming across you vlog and content ...very refreshing, not dragged shots, straight to the point. Impressed
Zimbabwe is actually a beautiful country i was suprised when i went there..
The Eastern part with the mountains Bvumba and Nyanga
I have never felt such peace and the people are nice
Its sad that this small country is blacklisted because of its politicians its beautiful and the people are nice
The food was amazing also!! Ate Sadza and chicken stew everyday for 1 week never knew chicken could taste so nice
Just found this page, and I'm loving it! I'm a white American man, and my wife is a black South African woman, and your relationship reminds me of ours :)
Beautifully captured. Oh my! Everything!!...Oh, the part with the red clay...and seeing you drink from the cup! Thank you for reminding us about the beauty of our home and our people❤
Such a beautiful video. The story telling, the people, the place and editing is fire 🔥
Gasp! Your videos are SO well made! Every detail is perfect. Thank you so so much. 💜
What an incredible story....girl your voice is soooo beautiful i could listen to you all day long. Thanks for this video. Indeed Zimbabwe is beautiful ❤️
Your voice and narration it’s just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Great content, good quality production as well 👍🏾
This is stunning. The way you guys captured zim, it's like I'm seeing it for the first time. And your voice is so soothing.
Stunning. Just shared this with my Zimbabwean friend 😊
I was born and raised in Reno, Nevada, USA. I am white, English, Scottish and German ancestry. I have wanted to go to Africa for many years now, Zimbabwe specifically on my list in addition to other countries. I truly loved this video and you gave such an inviting presence of the landscape, the people and culture, and the beautiful art, and even yourselves. I appreciate and respect your love for your native land and also your husband. I can tell how excited you are/were to share this with him.
The African landscape is like none other, in its pristine state, complimented by the native people of the land. I would love to come as a guest one day!😊
You really did a good job on capturing the "Real FEEL" of Zimbabwe which I think a lot of people visiting Zimbabwe could only experience it but couldn't describe yet they carried it for a lifetime after the visit.
There is something serene and magical about the Zimbabwean landscape and above all its PEOPLE,what a people..
Thanks for the great work on the filmography 👏👏👏
the tears i cried watching this video, my heart flutters at nature's beauty and it's people, the connection with your family, and your adoration of the land. the artists on the side of the road and their creations really struck something soft in me.
this is the most tender love letter i have ever seen 🤎🤎🤎
Thank you so so much, your kind and encouraging words mean a lot to us! 💛💛💛
I’m from Ireland but spent time living in Harare about 20 years ago. I haven’t been back since but wow watching this .. I really need to go
Zimbabwe is soo beautiful 😊 I would love to visit one day... Thanks for sharing!
Thankyou so much for this vlog. I haven't visited Zimbabwe, but I have been to rural Kenya. Just seeing the light, colours, trees and animals brought so many happy memories back to me. Thankyou again.
I genuinely enjoyed this. Every aspect of this video was so well put together. You are an amazing story teller needless to say i will be subscribing.. And again thank you so much for sharing this with me i haven't been home to Puerto Rico in 24yrs 😢 this made me want to go home even more...
Beautiful and I just love your narration.
Man we have it all. Good friendly highly educated and ambitious people. Wonderful landscapes, one of the seven wonders of the world, almost perfect weather to die for, wildlife etc. Only if our people can learn that is better to work together than separate. Foreigners who see our country probably wonder why we leave such an amazing country. Such is life, we all have to eat. Beautiful story telling, you invited every Zimbabwean to fall in love with our country again and others to see how beautiful our Zimbabwe - the house of stones really is. One of the best videos i have seen to date.
This is so kind, thank you so much!
As a Zimbabwean who went home a few years ago this is bringing out memories
My wife is also from Zimbabwe. I love visiting my mother in law's place there. Wish we could visit more often!
Beautifully shot! Captured the landscape, flora, and 'feel' of southern Africa. I'm Zambian, and spend time in the bush every year. Thanks for enabling me to enjoy my own memories of time out in Zambia's equally epic nature, and to marvel at the wonders just south of the border, on this gloomy day in DC! Cheers!
I’ve been to Zimbabwe and look forward to returning. I love your style of storytelling 😊
I am also from Masvingo and haven't been in years so it was so healing and therapeutic to experience Zimbabwe through your lenses. My grandmother and i used to bond making those claypots (kuumba hari) with the red clay from churu (anthill) and I would also help her bake or fire them (kupisa hari in Shona). Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for watching and for sharing some of your beautiful memories too!!
Probably the best thing I bumped into today. So refreshing ❤
Me too!!!
Just came across your channel now I must say i thoroughly enjoyed watching this vlog and the Authenticity of it is everything.Sometimes we take for granted how therapeutic simple village life is.
Repeat
Falling in Love❤️❤️❤️ with the arts, the landscape and the Zamb.. from Liberia 🇱🇷
Africa is beautiful. Thank you for telling this incredible story. I'd love to visit Zim as well.
Nigerians are persona non grata in Zimbabwe.RIP Robert Mugabe
Lovely to see Zim through your eyes. Amazing storytelling and camera work. You have a real talent
From another Zimbo 🇿🇼, (living now in 🇿🇦) . I grew up in Marondera, so Nyanga was a frequent destination for my family. From the varying landscapes such as Great Zimbabwe to Nyanga, 🇿🇼 is indeed beautiful. Thanks for the video!
Zimbabwe is just around the corner, you don't have to LIVE in South Afrixa.
Thanks for shearing Zimbabwe most beautiful country brings back lots of my childhood ❤
the amount of effort put into this video....JUST WOW
Absolutely Beautiful!
Maita Basa.
The most humble white guy I have ever seen,God bless this wonderful couple
OMG the photo of you in the snow! I know that exact feeling, my mum took a photo of me and I was 8. First time I’d ever seen snow in my life. I too am a Zim chick. I came to England when I’d just turned 8, just me and my brother, to be with our mum. This video has honestly been soo wholesome 🥹🫶🏾
I never imaged it was so beautiful! As an Afro American, my husband and I were looking to go to South Africa as our first trip to the continent. We are now considering Zimbabwe. In addition we did not know Vic Falls border that country, which is added bonus. We just need to figure out room, transport costs,etc. if possible could you post your complete itinerary used? It would be helpful. Do you recommend any travel agent we could use?
*WHAT A GREAT VIDEO OF YOUR RETURN TO ZIMBABWE* Thanks for sharing it with us all.
And, may I congratulate you on beautifully spoken presentation.
Victoria Falls is best appreciated from the Zimbabwean side.
Did you know Michael Jackson, Oprah Winfrey & Elizabeth Taylor visited The Victoria Falls and sampled the most beautiful & delightful hotels at The Vic. Falls.
This video is so professionally done - not over the top & very gently & pleasantly narrated.
Thank you. I'll be passing it onto many other Zimbos in the diaspora. I read some of the posts and felt the emotions well up.
Thank you once again.👌😢.
a lot of people just go to SA because its more developed and their economyis better but my country zim is agem and we just need people to showcase it better
When you visit Zimbabwe l also recommend you go to the eastern veld so chimanimani, nyanga or mutarazi. Great Zimbabwe, chinhoyi caves and matopos. Not forgetting the safaris. You will love it, it’s a gorgeous country
@rojamillerover
Yes, they are beautiful tourist spots, I've holidayed at all those places when I lived in Zim.
Snap!! Was also born in Masvingo/Fort Vic.many moons ago, but just like millions of other Zimbos, I left for greener pastures at the height of the political & economic turmoil decades ago & have no intentions of returning anytime soon. I've moved on - sadly.
But wish the best for all left behind.
I spoke to someone recently who visited Zim., & was told things have deteriorated very much in all spheres - sadly 😔😪.
So many beautiful places to see in Zimbabwe, would be most delighted to be your tour guide
Lovely shots! I can't wait to do a proper road trip around Zim with an off-road camper. You really did have a rounded experience
I love your content. I rarely find woman who look like me making this specific niche of aesthetic homemade documentary-like cinematography. i know theyre out there, but they can be hard to find. thank you!
Wasn't home for 30 years. Thank you for this shamwari. ❤
Powerful video. You do a great honor to your heritage and country through this video. When you took the red clay from your country and used it to design your cup it brought tears of meaning to my eyes. Very beautiful piece and even more inspiring, the artist herself. It made me think of the Bible verse, “Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” What a soul you have, -j
Such a magnificent doccie of our motherland, I felt homesick, but living in South Africa is also great.
This was such a beautiful video. Oh my....I live in the Caribbean and I have always wanted to visit the Motherland. Well, the beauty of Zimbabwe is captivating. I'm sold. It's definitely going on my adventure list. Wow.....and you and Dan are such a beautiful couple. I was looking forward to this video since you announced you were working on it. Everything about it is so connected and inspiring. I felt like I was literally traveling with you guys. Sending so much energy of success and prosperity to you too. You're one of my favorite channels here on CZcams because your authenticity shines through ❤. Much love 😘
You are so kind thank you so much! We hope you also get the chance to have a Zimbabwean adventure! Thank you 💛
@@everythingkindred ❤️
Amazing amazing video! Great storytelling! Feels like I'm watching a documentary. Love from Ghana!❤
This was stunning!! I could feel your love for your home country and it touched my heart!
What an incredibly beautiful video.👏
WOW WOW WOW! i have chills. gosh i would love to experience this the way you both did. HOW SPECIAL. so beautiful! you told this story sooo wonderfully. Thank you so much for sharing.
The editing is undisputed ❤
Your fellow Zimbabwean here, that is awesome 👌 the editing masterful.
Beautiful thank you for sharing! Zimbabwe is beautiful!
Sooo nostalgic thank you Mutsa n Dan , l really miss home 😍
This makes me miss home...Love the works...sending love from Canada
Your story telling and narration is impeccable. Documentary standard. Beautifully captured. 👌🏽
Me too- I am South African and have had the fortune to visit Zimbabwe more than once- this brings back wonderful memories- thank you for a stunning documentary
The man at the baobab tree is legendary 🌳. You are an amazing story teller . Made me miss kumusha. Thank you for sharing .
They called it little England but England is nowhere near to that beautiful Eastern Highlands. Unless if they where referring to Scotland.
Beauty comes in different forms. It’s just different type of beauty… Peak District, Lake District, Cotswold District, Camber Sands & Cornwall. Scotland has its charms and gems too but in any event Scotland is not in England. Then ofcourse the rolling hills of Wales with its green valleys.
I just got recommended your channel and I‘m in awe. Your storytelling and cinematography is just magnificent. Your family’s house reminds me of a house I stayed at in Namibia when I lived there for a while. This video really makes me want to return to Africa and experience more of the beautiful landscape and culture. So nostalgic.
The kind of content I wish to see everyday on CZcams, the storytelling, eye for detail and excellence in capturing the essence of Zimbabwe is just merely breathtaking. Thank you for taking us through this beautiful journey with you ❤❤❤
