Already 4 minutes in, and you guys have told me such important info than I have not heard in all my scraping- for-TZ-info days!! The time thing is an African thing. A Jamaican thing for sure! You 2 are so breathtakingly gorgeous, my lungs have problems breathing 😩🖤🖤🖤

The Caribbean passports in Tanzania are visa-free and you can stay as long as you want, and this also applies if you are interested in relocating to Tanzania for good.
Charles Musiba thank you for dropping by and that’s for your subscription. we are hoping that’s the case but we are still working on residency to stay here.
@@DasentandLera What are your plans? Are you interested in establishing a permanent residency and work? What kind of work are you thinking about? Sorry for my intrusive questions, but I am trying to gauge out what will be the best way for you to proceed. At the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Dar es Salaam, there is a Diaspora Desk and you should try to go and meet them, they may have information that might help you navigate through those bureaucratic processes (thanks to the British colonial rule :))
Charles Musiba Oh yes, there are some navigating to do but we have managed to figure out some ways to get things done with the help of some subject matter experts here. We are making this place our home and to do so we are working on work permit right now. I will keep you posted. Please fell free to email us lera@affintiystart.com. Thx!
Hello to the wonderful couple, Wayne here new to your Channel with your great essential informative and educational contents, please continue your hard work helping us / me an African Jamaican American finalizing my to the African Continent.
Yes Tanzanian we are ver conservative society and we love Caribbean’s it feels like we have mutual connections that’s why she was able to get visa free with no restrictions meanwhile a husband that has American passport seems to be considered foreigner. Anyways it’s a Tanzanian thing it’s hard to understand, I love my country 🇹🇿 🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿
Tz Wa Thanks for subscribing, thank you for the comments. Yes, we both really do feel welcome here passport or not. It’s a beautiful country with beautiful people and great organic food.
I love you guys ! Thank you for all your information! I discover you wen I look for more about Zanzibar because me and my husband what to travel this year there for a long time period! We are from Romania and we can enter without visa ! I give you my respect and I will fallow you!
Camille had a $50 bill and the date was 1996, I was oh no Lera said you can't take that to Tanzania. Don said I'm acting like we're visiting tomorrow 😆. Keep the videos coming I'm loving them!💘
You guys look amazing and I’m happy things are going good. Thanks for all the heads up on traveling there. If God say the same hopefully we can visit soon.
Hey Guys! My first time watching your channel! I've seen you Lera Brown in the comments of some other youtubers. I just cant pinpoint. i'll be there first week of September!! Im excited!!! I'll be watching more of your videos. Very informational and useful video!
Critical Nurse-Ready thank you! I follow and comment a few RUclipsrs. So you are on your way out? Hope to see you when you get here. Keep me posted or sent me an email. Lera@affinitystart.com.
@@DasentandLera Yes Ma'am. I just got off the phone with Ethiopian airlines, bc my flight changed, and they had to arrange another flight using their sister company to fly me to a different city since they weren't flying out of my city anymore for the month of September until October. I said, hell naw, I'm leaving in September, you all have to find a connecting flight to fly my child and I several hundred miles away to connect to your airline. They were extremely nice and helpful, and it was all included in my previous flight price. Thank the Lord!! So if anybody is reading this, get ready for flight cancellations and detours as you edge closer to your flight date. I've heard of these things, but never thought it would happen to me.
True that but I am seeing a lot of goats all in the the road stopping traffic. I said that would not happen in Jamaica, people will be eating curry goat day in and day out. lol
I'm so glad you are catching up. As for time keeping, man, it's hard. I'm a Tanzanian and I know it's frustrating. Time keeping is never an issue to most. You would agree to meet at 10am and the person shows up at 12pm with no "sorry I'm late" or a lot of excuses.
Rev K lots of excuses, it’s so hard to get use to that. Just today someone had to come to fix the door at 11am, no calls no text but showed up at 2:15 and expect me to be there. I left at 12:30. It is what it is for now I am not letting g it bother me much, I just leave.
@@DasentandLera That's what I'm talking about. I had have a fair share of my life in Europe and and currently in the US and I know your frustration. Still, I love it all the way every time I'm back home with my PEOPLE. I hope that you simply live with it and move on. Remember, no tips for any work done (good or bad) in Tanzania. Nobody is going to look at you down simply because you didn't give a tip. That is also true in clubs or restaurants.
Rev K it’s so true about the tilt but you do give man you get the biggest smile and thank you 😊 so we do because we know it’s a surprise to them. We really do love your county.
Nice going guys. Sry they treated you like a foreigner D; its that blu book...its not personal..lol. It's cool to learn that Caribbean locals are straight tho...thats wats up!
The AU, or atleast the black part of it, should come up with uniform visa rules that apply to the special conditions of the diaspora. Anyone from Brazil to the US, of African descent, should be given at least 6 months of visa free residence. If the person decides to stay, he should be able to apply, at a minimal fee in that time, and be eligible to apply for citizenship 3 years later. The 10 to 15 year process currently in place from Zambia to Botswana should apply only people who are not of African descent.
Makala Hanjika I am 100% agree with that suggestion. Automatic citizenship, in that case if you want it. It’s just so frustrating and the steps and process you have to take to get a 2 year residency and still have to reapply every two years and spend more money. I really believe it’s should be from a continental uniform angle and not individual countries.
Dasent & Lera, Thank you for sharing your experience thus far. I really appreciate your content. I will reach out to you on email if you don't mind. Asante tena! (Oh, btw, i subscribed and liked your vids)
Hope you love it there. Did you visit before moving there? Are you aware of the fault lines there? How are the rental rates there? I'm trying to visit soon.
We love it so much we are not leaving, fingers cross. We came to visit and have not left yet. First time to TZ. Rental is up to anyone standard, its what you like and where you wanna live, no different from any other country in the WEST.
Linda Bahar hello Linda, thank you for checking in. Sorry I realized I said 1.4tzs. It’s 1.4mil TZS per month. That’s about $600 depending on the rate.
You are right, Lera. It’s because of your good looks that they made it easy for you. Luckily you was there with the Bush doctor or he would have been locked up abroad. Lol
Rhonda Salter hey Rhonda, thanks for joining the fam. We are in Dar es salaam. Rent is very affordable for us moving here from the west find it to be very reasonable. Hope you are preparing for your move or even a visit.
@@DasentandLera lol. We are from Flatbush Brooklyn so are in tune with the whole Caribbean to make a long story short so we are very have alot of friends from Greneda. I also lived in Trinidad for many years. We are on a 20 month plan to leave the states for good, and are torn between East Africa (Tanzania) West Africa (Gambia). We booked to visit Gambia in July 2021, and are looking for a time when we can visit Tanzania. More and more we are feeling from a geo-political standpoint Tanzania may be a better move, than a country within a country with no military. Rather than a country that is the lifeline of its many landlocked neighbors. Maybe we are over thinking it all now, but we need to go soon because America... well... Side note it will be us (We are both 39 now) our 6 year old Daughter and our 9 year old son.
Winnie Thiongo the last I heard from those that came in the last week or so, is that some US airport location ask for it others don’t but they are not asking for it here in TZ.
Winnie Thiongo it will, keep your date and do whatever you need to do legally to make it happen. As the date gets closer, so much will start happening that will have you questioning your move, but remember your why you MUST and keep at it. Save save save as much as you can. Stop the unnecessary bills and put your money up for you life here on the continent. Don’t let nothing stand in your way, your ancestors get your front back and every part of your being to be here on mother Afrika where we belongs.
You look good together. I love to see my people together. Nice couple.
MikeG A Thank you!

It's the relationship the Caribbean island kept with the motherland but its not so in all countries. One reason also, the the commonwealth nations.
Try Sofi International

Your husband should check what his visa means. He may have to exit every 90days and go back.

How much was your apartment per month I didn't hear real clearly I just heard 1.4 shillings very interested because I'm thinking about moving there
Linda Bahar hello Linda, thank you for checking in. Sorry I realized I said 1.4tzs. It’s 1.4mil TZS per month. That’s about $600 depending on the rate.
Good and clear explanation . So your husband didn’t apply for visa on website? He just walked in the plane and get passport stamped?
No, Tanzania do have a visa on entry for American passport holders. It was easy and fast. Just have your $100 usd available.
@@DasentandLera thanks dear! I got UK’s one so hopefully same condition
Ooh Fundi 🤣🤣🤣,karibu Tanzania 🇹🇿,get used to it.
Irene Chinguile Asanta, I am getting use to it. It will be okay.
Yes we Africans are terrible with time. If you want them to come at 10, arrange for them to come at 7.
