Hi guys! I'm kicking off a brand new series called "World's Most Underrated Countries" where I take you deeper inside (what I think are) some of the best nations that are rarely spoken about positively in the media.
In today's episode, we learn about:
- AFGHANISTAN
- ERITREA
- LEBANON
- BOLIVIA
My goal in this series is not only for you to get advice from me, but to open the follow to all of YOU guys to share your thoughts/experiences/comments about these nations so we can all get inspired. It would be great to hear from you -- especially if you've been to either of these 4 countries!
Follow @DrewBinsky on INSTAGRAM for more travel inspiration!

My country is so underrated. When we reopen our borders we hope you’ll return for a visit
I got you kim
yeah i gotchu
Please don't nuke me
I'd love to Kim, tell our president Trump, and all other nations to shut down their nuclear programs, and you will to. This makes you out as the good guy.
Kim Jong-un Go eat fat
Woah, Drew visited more places than I did, he's more of a traveler than I am
You take an entire episode just asking can we see your fuckin home
@@MuhammadUmar-cy3od um isn't Dora a 6 year old? Why are you cussing
umar gujjar to be fair there’s a fox always bothering her
LOL!
He travelled the world. Not from house to a ladder which we have to locate
Thank you for including Bolivia, I hope you come back soon, there's a lot more to see, and we're very happy to have tourists
Been in Lebanon last year for a 2 weeks trip. This place is gorgeous, safe, good food, awesome nature, stuff from fenicians and greak/roman era... and the ppl are so fine. So underrated. Greetings from Brazil.
If you think about it
Travelling is a way of Visiting one's Home
No matter how far or how close it is.
A visit from your Home, to another person's Home
Absolutely correct✅
You are everywhere
Even In MLBB Community
That's a different and nice perspective.
Shut up
Why i always see you in comment
Thank you for mentioning my underrated country 🇱🇧 (: we really appreciate your positivity.
🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧❤
Was there in early January and will be releasing a video about it stay tuned. Lebanon rules!
Lebanon's government sucks
Thomas Boi that is true. But the issue is that the government is usually mixed with the people and the country itself.
Watch It Again I see you’re just trying to get reactions out of people. Just get out.
omg thank you! finally someone mentions Bolivia!! 🇧🇴
I had a brother-in-law from Bolivia. My Mom & sister visited & had a beautiful time.
Jordan 🇯🇴 is very underrated. They have Petra, Baptist sight of Jesus, and the Dead Sea. It’s awesome
How can they have the site of Jesus if Jesus never existed? He was a myth wrote up by a bunch of long dead people.
The Jordanians are so funny and cheeky too!
Drew: “Many if my favorites are labeled as “too dangerous”.
North Korea: You are correct indeed
North Korea isn't dangerous
@@pahonia6091 Of course it is.
@@pahonia6091 it is. South Korea is not and north Korea is dangerous
South korea is the safe, developed one
North korea is safe unless you don't break any of their rules
I feel like oman is underrated
and jordan also it is
Oman has a great future in tourism it has a lot of potential
Indeed! Even in GCC everybody visits UAE, but only small portion visit Oman, cant wait to go back and explore more of it!
afro x lit it is but they have been spiked I feel like
@@pepega8197 NOPE ITS NOT
Thank you, Drew! You present my country Afghanistan very refreshingly positive.
As a Sudanese ive been to Eritrea twice , we enter visa on arrival. Eritrea is surely a hidden gem for the world , the country feels back its in 1950s and amazingly they preserve these old things very well . Eritrea is also one of the cleanest countries in Africa ive seen really neat and tidy the streets and public places.
And your English is perfect!
اللهُ يعطيك العافية يا زول! 😂
agreed with all options tbh
Edit: Algeria is also underated i highly recommend you add it in part 2!
Yes its soooooo beatiful but it gets bad news in the news i come from algeria
agree and why everybody think it's just desert?!!! sorry for bad English
And Sudan
🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿❤❤❤❤❤ 123 viva l'algérie
Truly underrated it deserves a little light
I’ve been to Lebanon 🇱🇧 it’s a great country to visit.
Oh hey I'm from Lebanon.
@@louay3027 السلام عليكم
This actually inspired me as I would assume some of these countries are in a war crisis but when I found out they were perfectly safe it actually sounded like a great place to go! Thank Drew Binsky you’re so inspiring!
Brazil is so underrated it only has 6,5 mil tourist a year, im from denmark and just went to brazil for a holiday
Love to see my country in here.
Love you drew From Lebanon! 🇱🇧
I’ve been to Afghanistan and Lebanon. Both amazing countries. I only went to Afghanistan for a couple of days as I was in Iran for a month and the two countries share borders. I am 75% Iranian so I speak Farsi so it was easy to communicate with the amazing Afghani people. Lebanon is another fun and unpredictable place. With (I can agree with Drew) the most fun people and in my opinion top three best cuisines Lebanon is another place to add to your bucket list. I’d love to visit Bolivia too. Stay safe everyone and stay home!
glad you enjoyed your short stay in afghanistan! i would also love to visit iran someday 🇦🇫❤️🇮🇷
Drew your amazing guy love you brother from Afghanistan wish come again and again thanks for mentioning our country as your favorite
Respect from Afghanistan 🇦🇫
I haven't been to Afghanistan, but there's an Afghan guy who used to make my lunch 2 or 3 times a week at my job. Lovely veg platter with chickpeas, potatoes, and flatbread. Such a friendly guy, it would be an honor to visit his country one day.
My country is on there.
ERITREA
FOR THE WIN!
its a shame you can't spell the name of your own country correctly
Respect from Italy
Can you help us get visas? :D
Eritrea
..
I love Afghanistan, afghans, their food and specially their bravery.
Lol
Thats my country I Appreciate your Ability Thank you @Harris S
Barry Bamb [MESSAGE DELETED BY CZcams] what’s funny ?
Ooow thank you for your nice expression Dear Harris.
That is very kind of you
Aww ty by the way I’m from Afghanistan
I'm so happy that someone finally talk about my beautiful country in a positive way, which is the real fact that no one from the Off-limits guesses
that, it's so honorable to have you again in Afghanistan, always welcomed.
I do not think anyone is welcomed there now, how are you feeling?
This was such a fascinating video, Drew, and I'm so inspired by it. It's encouraged me to continue my explorations of the world and know that there's always something more to see! Thanks!
Hey Drew you should definitely revisit North Macedonia. Much has changed these few years and we'd be willing to help you out here.
Skopje
Macedonia is in my top 10 countries to visit for sure! It is one of the most underrated European nations, as well as Slovenia, Albania and Belarus.
I went last year, very sunny and pretty with the nicest people
Leonardo McGrath North Macedonia*
@@randomgamer218 it's called north Macedonia for a reason. Actually it should be north of Macedonia
Drew: *The food in Afghanistan is to die for.*
Afghani People: yeah
There's an Afghan restaurant chain here in the Toronto area and I can assure you it's the BOMB 💣
Hahah
@@theactivecoconut6077 i see what u did there
You're not funny
@@lmao9526 ok but why are you legit everywhere
Totally agree about Bolivia! Salt flats were one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Cycling down the death road was amazing too!
Nov 2020 update: I’ve been living in Lebanon since last March. It’s not safe these days.
How come? x
Lebanon’s security situation is far too complex to explain here. I make that statement after months and months of daily observations. Follow the country’s news for a while and see for yourself
Same with Eritrea. Its all in war now agains Ethiopia
@@zeik04 War...what is it good for? Sly and the Family Stone asks...
Your positivity is appreciated about Afghanistan.
Really you enjoy it more..
Love and respect from Pakistan.🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
@Watch It Again ?
@Watch It Again 🇲🇽 🇮🇱 🇺🇸 🇮🇳 🇵🇰 🇦🇫
Who are you to talk as if you are representing Afghanistan lol, you are a Pakistani, Afghans don’t like you people at all, they hate you from heart. Pakistanis always gotta bring themselves up and connect themselves to Afghanistan when something is about Afghanistan, it’s really showing the insecurity of Pakistanis not wanting to accept their original Indian identity and thus trying to LARP as other non Indian nations in the regions, it’s really cringe, just stop this shit and don’t speak for Afghans, no matter what it is about.
SogdianBactrianKing plz stfu. I'm Indian btw, before you say I'm Pakistani
@Watch It Again change the Israeli flag with Palestine
Thanks for featuring my beautiful country Afghanistan
I love your country. In my list it's number one and always will remain number one for a lot of reasons.
I love Afghanistan but it is undarated love from india
Thanks for fighting off the russians I hate so much back at the day lol
THANK YOU SO MUCH for talking so well about Afghanistan😍i’m so happy finally someone acknowledges my beautiful country! Much love to you Drew, would love to have you back :)
*dies of taliban*
Little did you know
Plz be safe from Taliban love from Philippines
Hope you’re safe!
Hey Drew, Camba Boliviano here. You definitely need go back multiple times. Every region is crazy different. I was born in Santa Cruz. My grandparents live entre el segundo y tercer anillo en la avenida Busch. My grandad built up a few rooms for Student housing. I can see if he'll rent you out something. Also, if you give him a few glasses of bourbon, he'll tell you some fun stories and crazy history. If he was younger, he may have made a great tour guide. The main city is very diverse with a good mix of Chinese and Japanese communities and lots of Brazilian Students. If you go during the right time, you'll get the best part of the growing season. Fresh Cherimoya, achachairu, pachio, pacay, ambaibas. If you go east towards la Chiquitania, you'll hit some beautiful towns with churches that were built using native Chiquitano and Jesuit influences. The further. You will also get thermal waters once you hit Roboré. That area is know for being special in terms of bio diversity. Something to do with it being a mix of forest and jungle.
Also, check out Tarija, land of Los Chapacos. In terms of atmosphere and lovely people, it's my absolute favorite. Very humble people who really enjoy the simple things. the accent has some crazy intonations, people talk like they're singing. They are also incredibly friendly. It's wine country so if you go out to the valley, you'll get wine by the pitcher and chicha de uva. They also produce a liqour called Singani. Many homes and buildings out there have also been built out of the traditional Adobe and are kept that way to preserve it's history. The scenery is very open with lots of hills and very small trees. If you want to visit, let me know. I have a crazy amount of family there. My grandmom was 1 out of 7 sisters and my great grandmom may have been more. Somehow, everyone keeps in touch and are always happy to have people stop by.
Beautiful country love to be there one day from Pakistan 🇵🇰

When I saw Eritrea I was so happy ;)
Armyyyyy
Bolivia! It’s my favourite country in South America too 🇧🇴💚
Thank you Drew for including Lebanon , I hope you come back after the coronavirus disaster is over , it means alot to me as a lebanese to see my country spoken about in a positive way ❤
I wanna visit 😭
All the love from Lebanon 🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧
Beautiful segment and I'm waiting for more ❣
Indeed...
Love that you mention Bolivia, glad you enjoyed visiting my country!❤️
Have you visited Uganda before, visit Busongora in Uganda, it's very awesome
Love to visit all of these countries
As Afghan I want to see your a great person. Hope to come back peaceful Afghanistan. . much more love from Afghanistan.❤
@Unnamed Warrior ❤️
Love afghan from india 🇮🇳🇦🇫
I hope all can see the truth Beaty of our country
🇦🇲❤️🇷🇺❤️🇦🇫
I really hope I can visit Afghanistan one day.
I LOVE that you put subtitles on your videos, such a good thing for deaf folks and folks who don't speak English fluently
I like how you’ve reformatted your vlog at this time, Drew!
Yes I am from Afghanistan thank you for your good view about the country.
One thing I want to tell drew you have visited only 5% of the country the 95% is undiscovered i know because of the situation you can visit each part but i hope one day peace will be there and everyone will visit as our grandparents are telling 30-40 years ago many germans were visiting there specially for hunting
Those salt flats are pretty cool, Bolivia is an interesting country. Amazing views from the cable cars
Dude I see your comments almost everywhere!
Amazing video! Bolivia is also my favorite in South America.
Drew, you are bringing enlightenment to our lives. you are making us better persons .Thank you!
Love your video’s!! ❤️

Betania Fernandez muchas gracias!
Thank you Drew,much appreciated 🇱🇧🇱🇧❤️❤️
This Underrated Countries series is a great idea! I really enjoy hearing -- or re-hearing, if I watched the original video -- about these places. Thank you for all of your hard work on these videos -- we really appreciate it!
Shouts out from lebanon❤🇱🇧 love ya!
Thank you for the recognition drew 🇪🇷🇪🇷❣️
6 countries to go; that’s awesome! When you finish them all, I would love to see a video where you list them in the order in which you visited them.
Looking forward to more parts in this series. From my travels (47 countries) my most underrated:
Colombia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Mexico
Ive heard great things about Albania and Montenegro as well but didn't get to those 2.
Some other underrated countries are:
Ethiopia
Cuba
Vietnam
Nepal
Armenia
Uzbekistan.
Saudi Arabia
Philippines
Oman
Cuba would probably be a tourist hotspot if not for the visa situation
Vietnam and Cuba is not so underrated in my opinion
Shawn Aaron it’s because of American propaganda against these countries. Americans have a huge hatred toward communist/previously communist countries
Also most of the caucasus countries
Yeah Lebanon is an amazing country
😍❤️ I love this country soooooo much
yes I was there, check out the video on my channel about Lebanon, cheers
Hala 2nta men 3aylet assaf wa 2ana kamen 2esme ali assaf charafna alex assaf
Your hard work in trying to make this world better place is commendable as always. Great work my friend.
Drew thanks man for changing people's impression of the Middle East 🙏🏼 Afghanistan is a great place. I was going to go this year in April but now with Covid19 have to wait a long time. 😕
I don’t know if you consider it underrated, but Belgium is awesome. My favorite country to visit. It gets seriously overshadowed by its neighbors of the Netherlands, Germany, and France. Same thing with Luxembourg.
ngl germany is pretty nice though
@@alvaros3168 yeah it’s pretty nice but takes all the light away from belgium
Drew today there was an attack on a templə in Kabul 27 people died RIP😢 THİS AMAZING COUNTRY ONLY GET BAD IN THE NEW SO SAD
Do you it was carried out by ISIS and it is worst enemy of Islam and Muslims.
So you cannot blame a whole nation for it. Did you forget Newzeland mosque attack or attack in a church in Srilanka?
ISIS are supported by Israel

I'm from Bolivia, you are always very welcome. Thank you for this review.
I have never subscribed to a youtuber and was so happy with it .. I needed this channel
Kazakhstan is very underrated! I am from Kazakhstan, a kid, 14, living in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The people are very open minded and the mountains and environment is amazing! Kind Regards!
I will go there someday soon, I have some good friends from there that I met in Armenia and they are wonderful, kind, and funny people.
kazakhstan is definitely on my bucket list! i want to go there so bad
I love 💖 to visit Eritrea 🇪🇷 too, One day will visit
Thank you for mentioning Bolivia 🇧🇴❤️ I am happy to hear you had a fun time and hope you come back soon!!
so happy you mentioned lebanon!! i'm egyptian but so many of my friends are lebanese, i've visited a bunch of times and I LOVE IT!!
Uzbekistan and Myanmar are very underrated countries that deserve more recognition. I’ve been to both and really enjoyed them!

Drew Binsky what is Rebhun??
I have been to Afghanistan, but I was in the Marine Corps in 2012. Afghanistan is a beautiful place, and I'm sure the people are phenomenal out there. The country is HOT during the summer months and freezing cold during the winter months (I saw it snow out there). I want to return to Afghanistan as a tourist and explore the country. I would love to meet the kind people out there and try Afghanistan meals!!!! Thanks for this video; I can't wait for the next part of this series!!!!
Another great video. Love your enthusiasm and
positive news about overlooked destinations Afghanistan and Eritrea. We need this more than ever especially in the current crisis
look forwad to the next one drew
being english , i love to wacth anything about travel, different cultures
keep up the great work buddy ❤️
Bro you should have visited the kabul Jalalabad highway. You could have seen paradise in the world.
Hamza Khan
I was thinking the same thing 🇦🇫
I have
You forgot to mention Kunar and Nuristan 2nd Switzerland even beautiful
Bosnia is an awesome and amazing country but is sadly war turned, has a bad reputation and is overshadowed by other countries like italy and Croatia
I was planning on going these year until CORVID-19. I was supposed to go last year but didn't have enough time. I want to go to Sarajevo and Mostar. It looks gorgeous.
I am from Serbia,and I've been to Bosnia several times.They have great food,people are friendly,there are beautiful rivers and mountains...So I recommend you to visit when you are able to.
Thanks from Bosnia and Herzegovina, yes we are beuatiful country in heart of Europe!🇧🇦
i slovenija
Drew dont really like the Balkans i think... only Snapchat story about it...
Thanks Drew for making these videos. I am a Lebanese American who would love to pick your brain about your visit to Lebanon. I find your videos to be very uplifting.
I love this. Thanks so much for sharing! I take solace in the fact that this will be over some day and the rest of the world is out there to explore. Thanks for a positive (and entertaining) video! can’t wait to watch you finish your journey. Sending good vibes to all of you in AZ!!
I want to hear Drew’s opinion about the situation in Afghanistan now.
Taliban zindabad
Can we get Croatia in part 2? That's where I am currently living.
Beautiful landscapes and architecture ✔
Friendly people ✔
Low cost of living ✔
Doesn't get much better than that 👌
Cochabamba in Bolivia created a new emotion in me
You have such a positive attitude...That's why you have a great time and make friends wherever you go...
Afghan and Lebanese food is absolutely amazing 👍🏼
Welcome to Afghanistan 🇦🇫 anytime
Thank you so much for talking about Lebanon 🇱🇧❤️
We love you ! Please come visit us once again ! I’ll be ur guide 😍
great video, specially your words about Afghanistan :) Thanks!
Drew: The food in Afghanistan is to die for
Me(Afghan): Yes my man drew
I really agree with drew about how afg is underrated because as an afghan, I can tell you that the culture there is very interesting and as drew mentioned, the food there is tasty ngl.
I Lebanese and I agree Drew! 🇱🇧❤️
I’ve been to Bolivia and it was incredible! La Paz is one of the most amazing cities! My grandmother was from Lebanon and i cannot wait to go there one day. 🤩
Drew, I envy you! Traveling is my only real ambition. I've been to only 76 countries, so you are an icon! Some of my favorite countries you have not mentioned are Namibia, Peru, Guatemala, Australia, Norway, Laos... It's a difficult list to compile. All the best from this new subscriber.
Hey Drew, I was just watching you live on Instagram!
The cool Guy 🙏
@@drewbinsky
I love you
Afghanistan and Iran were always places that I’ve wanted to travel to so badly to see what daily life in the capitals were like
Wow... Watching you while sitting in my very small room feels like traveling the world too... ❤️
Wish I can travel more country. ☺️
Hey thanks sooo much for all the positive things you say about the world. I like your positive attitude and how you post your videos. You have really given me a different picture about this world. Please take care and keep posting. I have learned so much about your videos ❤️👍🏾

Drew: "The food in Afghanistan is to DIE for."
He do it on purpose i believe😂
You're doing something that I dreamt since I was a child.
You are completing my dream in a way... Thanks for your videos and positivity!
Thank you for your inspiring videos. Because of you I almost smiled at an actual person today.
Yes im early although its 1.02 am where i live
Sri Lanka is also really underrated 🇱🇰
Not really.......
@@portalofsoul8429 it has so much for tourists and gets barely as much as india, maldives, carribean etc
@@Thesillyguy345 I mean everywhere I go I see a lot tourists and yes india and Maldives but like everyone knows what india and Maldives are!
This is an amazing video... shining the light on the underdogs! Great job, Drew!
Oh yes... Lebanon!!! I fell in love with that country this year. I was there the end of January 2020 during the revolution and I can’t wait to go back there again. Friendly people, beautiful landscapes, delicious food and cute streets with lots of restaurants 🇱🇧
