Burkina Faso Beyond the Headlines

The media wants you to believe this is the most dangerous country on earth. I flew into Burkina

Faso expecting 72 hours of terror, but what I found completely broke the narrative.

Instead of a war zone, I found a nation fighting for its future under the

world's youngest president, Ibrahim Traoré. The locals aren't living in fear;

they are building new cities, assembling their own cars, and celebrating

their freedom. I walked the slums and the luxury districts, and everywhere I went,

I was met with kindness, not danger. The truth about Burkina Faso isn't in the scary headlines,

it is right here in the streets, and it is absolutely beautiful.
