As a Ugandan i visited Maputo in 2023, and loved my stay, very nice people and beautiful historical sights. I plan to visit again visiting in 2026..guess I should perfect my Portuguese

Maputo was the first city I called home after leaving Kinshasa, my home city. I have a deep affection for Mozambique and its people. Especially the people! I will never forget how kind, welcoming and friendly the people were. I was just a teenager and spoke zero Portuguese but my classmates always invited me, included me, mimed to help me 😅😅 taught me Portuguese. I lived not too far from Patrice Lumumba’s street and it made me smile everytime. All this to say, obrigado para tudo Moçambique and I wish you all its people peace & prosperity 🇨🇩❤️🇲🇿

I visited twice Maputo a few years ago, coming from South Africa (though I am an European expatriate), and I love it! It gave me a relaxed and safe feeling (comparing to South Africa) and I admired the mixture between African and Latin European (Portuguese) cultures. People were so very nice. And the women are beautiful and nice! P.s. Compliments, your English is excellent! If you self taught yourself just watching TV, you are a very clever girl! And also the ending of your video is a very good observation, well done for your work 👍

Maputo is a beautiful and welcoming city with amazing food, friendly people, and a relaxed atmosphere. It’s a great place to experience real culture, enjoy the ocean, and discover something different. Definitely worth visiting.❤❤

I visited Mozambique last year and the bus/train rides where so captivating with beauty. I can't wait to return to check out the many islands!
