Mini bio
How it started.
Before YouTube, Uma worked at a water processing plant in Mali. His employer lent him money for a smartphone, and he learned video making with help from friends and the internet. His first video featured Moosa, a grower of Indian vegetables in Mali.
Finding an audience.
His early African travel videos brought a sudden audience surge in June 2020. A February 2021 interview highlighted his eight-part Hadzabe series and visits to communities in Kenya.
The journey continues.
His channel describes travel as a way to meet people and learn about culture, traditions and food. In late 2026, his Brazil uploads ranged from São Paulo street food and Rio neighbourhoods to life in the Amazon.
