This video is from my last few days in Sudan spent in Khartoum. The camping ground I originally stayed at was in the heart of the city, just a stone's throw from the army headquarters. This became the heart of the revolution so everyday I got to witness protests. I also shared with you some footage of the very unique border crossing into Ethiopia.

It's 45 degrees, great. I need to see. I'm going to that way. Oops. Hey, looks like I need to turn around. stop working. I hope so is the fuel, although my fuel gauge shows there's still some fuel in it, but maybe because of the heat, I don't know, something went wrong. So I've got this one liter here. Pardon? Yes, I know, I just need to put this because I ran out. Pardon? Stop now. Yeah. So how far is to the petrol station? 10 kilometers? This one? So is it past on the right-hand side? So maybe I'll turn around and go there. Thank you. Thank you for your help. Thank you. Okay, so we're gonna turn around and get to that petrol station first. Good chilly. Come on, three kilometers. We can do it. Yeah, you're definitely in the center of the tension. Thank you very much for bringing me here. You're welcome. I didn't know you were thinking of a movie kind of thing. Yes, I am. I nearly died today, but thanks to you I'm alive. Thank you. Time for a quick update about the situation in Sudan. So I made it to Khartoum, the capital city safely. I went through a few checkpoints, but everything just went nice and smooth. Sudanese people are lovely. They're very hospitable. They're very honest and they really respect your space. So I never had any issues and I really feel safe. Although the situation in the country is still a bit unstable. I'm staying here at the Yacht Club, camping by the river, right in the heart of town near the protests. Sure, it's a risk because things can go wrong, bad quite quickly, but hopefully it won't happen and everything will go back to normal and it will improve in a country because Sudanese people really deserve to be free and to be safe and happy, live the happy life. So let's see what the next day is going to bring. I'm staying in this Airbnb apartment in Khartoum just a few days before I leave for Ethiopia. And I want to do a little, a little test. I wonder if I'll be able to cook the egg on my balcony. So it's 48 degrees outside. I've got some sun here. I'm going to put it here and we'll see. So I was cooking my egg for 30 hours outside. Let's see. No, it didn't cook. Seriously. It's very hot, but my experiment failed. It's time to leave Khartoum. I'm heading to Ethiopian border, which I hope to reach tomorrow. Today I've got around 450 kilometers to go. So I'm leaving Khartoum early in the morning. It's around 5.30. As you can see, the streets are empty. That's the army and that's my favorite restaurant. If you're ever in Khartoum, this is a cool little place. You feel like you're in Europe. Morning. I just spent my last night in Sudan in this little hotel, 120 kilometers from the border with Ethiopia. It's 5 a.m. and I'm about to leave because I just cannot stand the heat anymore. But apparently in Ethiopia, it will be much, much cooler. So I'm looking forward to that. So Ethiopia, here we go. Okay, let's spend my last Sudanese money. Pardon? No, I only have like for one drink, I just gonna buy Coca Cola. That's it. I don't have money. No, I just need to eat something. That's the only money I have. I literally have a hundred Sudanese pound. There's nothing. Oh, no, I don't have dollars. Thank you. This is the line of the trucks waiting. Oh, ----. Yes, drink. Thank you. Thank you. No, no, I don't have money to sell. Thank you. Thank you. Poland. Two Coca Cola. One juice. Not this one. I'm sorry. Okay, one more Coca Cola. Thank you. That's it. 75? How much? Take zero. Very good. There you go. Yeah. Shukran. I can only sell you that much, but I only have Sudanese. I don't have, I don't have dollars. I'm running out of dollars. I need to cash out. Do cash out in, uh, in. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Thank you. This is immigration now. Thank you. Pardon? No, I don't have, I don't have it. Thank you. No, don't have euros. I ran out of all the money in Sudan. I need to get cash out. That's all. Okay. Thanks. Do I need to go somewhere? Poor daddy. Here? I'm accidentally on the wrong side of the road and I can't really, oh, there is a thing turn off. Come on. Move. Bloody hell. There's a pass there. Okay. I'm an idiot. It's my fault. I didn't die. This is much better.
