Greeting Steemians. I had an urge to share my joy with any and everyone I could. If you have been watching the news you will know that today is a day the future of Zimbabwe changed significantly. This is something I never thought I would see anytime soon but it has happened.

Rather than go on a rant about all the bad things that have happened to us as a nation in the past I would just like to share some pictures of my beautiful country.

When the Zimbabwean dollar became worthless,this place used all the coins they had to create a walkway.

This song represents my dream for Zimbabwe, a nation free from segregation and filled with love,peace and harmony. A zimbabwe for everyone.

Henry Olonga-Our Zimbabwe

Our Zimbabwe

This land our land, is our Zimbabwe
A land of peace for you and me
Once born in pain and segregation
But now we live in harmony

Now flies the flag our nations glory
We'll live with pride, inside our hearts
As we all stand to build our nation
This our land, our Zimbabwe

Though I may go to distant borders
My soul will yearn for this my home
For time and space may separate us
And yet she holds my heart alone

Now flies the flag our nations glory
We'll live with pride, inside our hearts
As we all stand to build our nation
This our land, our Zimbabwe
Now flies the flag our nations glory
We'll live with pride, inside our hearts
As we all stand to build our nation
This our land, our Zimbabwe

We've been through it all
We've had our days
We've had our falls
Now the time has come for us to stand
To stand as one

The night has gone and with the morning
Come rays of hope that lead us on
So we will strive to give our children
A brighter day where they belong

Great to see an African brother from Zimbabwe.
Happy for you guys on your new change in governance. I do wish it'd be better than what you guys have been used to since independence. Great to see the good use of a money said to have little use. At least on the ground there it made everything more beautiful.

Stunning beautiful images, I'm just curious on the camera you used, everything is just so beautiful.

Thank you. Now the work for us to rebuild begins it's going to be long and hard but at least we now have the chance to do it.

I used my Samsung S7 Edge to capture those pictures. The weather in Zimbabwe is pretty much always blue skies so that does help with the lighting of the pictures.

Samsung, lovely piece of equipment. Beautiful pictures. I loved it. Yeah, rebuilding the nation is next, I just hope the new President would be equal to the task.

Amazing photos and story! Thank you for sharing! :) Enjoyed it very much!

A lovely post and amazing pics of your Beautiful country and I wish all your further hopes and dreams come true

trés bon information


This is going to be the new president. The man who personally managed the military's genocide of more than 40,000 Ndebele in the early 1980's under instruction from Mugabe.

As the saying goes ' Be careful what you wish for'. If only Zimbabwe could have a True Democratically elected leader who had the country's best interest at heart and not their own.

That being said , I like the photos and story and wish you, your family and all Zimbabweans a happy future and a good rainy season.

Thank you for the best wishes. We are going to take it one step at a time. The people will have a chance to vote for their leader but for now we celebrate a significant victory for us.

PS: Where is this Zim-dollar coin walk-way?
