Lonely Planet has voted Nairobi as the best city in the world to visit in 2024, thus beating all other cities in the world.
💯.
Your friend is such a vibe and seems like she had a good time in Nairobi/Kenya. Learn from her on picking Kiswahili words quickly and pronunciation as well, I bet if she stayed here longer she'd learn it really quickly. I know Kilimani, Westlands, Kileleshwa, Lavington areas are a favourite with many expats and foreigners but they are mostly overpriced especially when it comes to AirBnB's. There's a lot of options in Nairobi in many neighbourhoods especially middle class areas with supporting amenities whether it is in Lang'ata or other Southern subrurbs, Thika rd neighbourhoods and even Eastlands, you just have to look for them and have an open mind. Nairobi can be expensive if you want to live the high life but in reality it can support any budget it just depends on your lifestyle and willingness to compromise in some things. All the best to your friend and safe travels.
The phrase Hakuna Matata was popularized by a Kenyan Band called Them Mushrooms in the early 80s. A song welcoming visitors to Kenya telling them Kenya Hakuna Matata. Later on made world famous in the Lion King movie
for the mzungu price its not only you even us native kenyans we experience it but you haggle great conversation guys
Kenyans can tell the second you open your mouth whether you're posh or not.
I am from the Caribbean. Dominica 🇩🇲 to be exact but been living the US for most of my life. My family and I are currently in Rwanda and I have to say that the begging is a tad overwhelming…. Also the price gauging when they know you aren’t from there can be disappointing. Still love it though, really want to spend some time in Kenya. Your vlogs are convincing
Please do, Kigali is nice but Nairobi is many levels in sophistication than Kigali minus the cleanliness. You'll love it.
@@alexchui3511 thank you! I was told that I would love it.
@@LionessUprising You sure will. Don't take my word for it, listen to these ladies, one moved from UK and lives here now and the other visited for 2 months.
@@alexchui3511 I have been following her since she moved to Nairobi and other RUclipsrs. I love her content. I know Kenya is a whole vibe. It’s like Caribbean meets Africa meets Florida. Looking forward to it. One Love!
@@LionessUprising Say no less....
Having lived in Nairobi for so long am amazed at how many times other foreigners are surprised by how 'safe' and developed Nairobi is. Am always asking myself what are the true expectations, I would love to go to Europe and really have an understanding on what conversations are really being said about Africa. Also, you look 100% Kenyan. I think I know at least 10 Kenyan girls who look and sound exactly like you. Also, you need to go to Naivasha. Naivasha is a whole other experience.
Yea that's right...restaurants in Kenya are from all over the globe and very affordable 🔥🔥🔥
I like your friend a lot , she is so funny and her character is on point,I enjoy the video guys
BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE IN THIS VIDEO... I LOVE THEM SO MUCH... WELCOME HERE IN KENYA
I loved this. I didn’t know Kenya had all these to offer. I am making notesnof these resorts. Pls keep recommending these places. I am moving to Kenya in January with the family.
Welcome. There are a lot of vlogs and RUclipsrs/influencers documenting their experiences in Nairobi, they maybe worth checking out.
Karibu Kenya
Moving to Kenya?..what?most of the Kenyan youth are leaving for the US and Europe!..too many Taxes from the Government..Good luck😂
@@fatmahnoor3717 Shame on you.Do your research well.Life in the US is much harder.Everything is expensive.The youths trying going to the US realize that when it's too late.Just that jobs are readily available there but you still got many bills to pay.Kenya is good.
@@molotovcocktail4207people who make such comments haven't had the privilege of travel exposure
Welcome home guys. Kenya and East Africa is a vibe! 🔥🔥🔥
About the slums, I would really like you to ask yourself this question, What is the work for this big organisations in Kenya and the world?They use it to run there businesses,and the slums are part of it ...and that's why you see they advertise Africa with slums only, the 3rd president had started to change the slums image and was fought for it and his project never went through.....
True
And now Ruto wants to do the same but we want to politicise it too. He said in 10 years Kibera will not be there and hopefully that will happen.
@@alexchui3511uongo uongo.

She also came when the King Charles and Camilla were here...Did she see the resemblance between the big Ben and the Kenyan parliament building?
😂😂dont go out for erands without consulting a local. Kenyans are friendly people, just ask a neighbour for advice, especially salons. Expensive is not always best in this country.
You guys look 100% kenyan. But your British accent is so cool. Most welcome again in the future.
No way she is 30! 23 maybe. Nawapenda wote, mwaah 😚
Ran across this channel while looking at what it would be like moving from America to Kenya or Tanzania. A lot of good information to consider from these two beautiful sisters. Thanks
Most welcome 🙏
Most visitors come to east Africa,, will probably end up recommending kenya,,it's the vibes, check you tube and the related podcasts,,nice place to be in Africa ❤🎉🙏
You are welcome back Meisy! Kenya loves you! 🇰🇪 ❤
Convince your friend to move here as well. You guys have positive energy.
Sukuma is collard greens but many Kenyans think it's kales. Spinach in Kenya is what should be Swiss Chard
Our 'Spinach' is actually Swiss Chard
Not true. Collard greens is what they call it in America, Britons call it kales and we call it sukumawiki. Spinach is not kales, it has a name already - spinach!
@@kumbikhanna True just checked
@@alexchui3511 Just confirm you will see.
I love somalians. I get a good friend many years also she is a Kenyan. And ever asks if i am a Somalian …
Good places to stay in Nairobi ,kilimani, westlands, kileleshwa,Karen and lovington.
Great vlog I really enjoyed the insights you put out, you guys make me wana move back and live in kenya. Especially if you live in USA there’s no social life and no genuine interactions with people like you’d find in kenya. 👏🏽
Going to Kenya in 5 days this video was helpful
I love ❤️ you dear,keep pushing
I just love how bliss and jovial you're when interviewing your friend your face shows it all, i know you're proud of yourself as we are too. I'm really happy that you are promoting our country and you're part of it.. much love! 🇰🇪❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️
You and your friend give out good energy. Ubah, it's now time to learn Kiswahili. Just do it online or get a trainer like me. I'm sure wherever you go in Nairobi, people ask if you are Ethiopians. There's a reason but it's not related to Ethiopians in any way except maybe looks.
Would love to meet you girls. Saw you girls some other time in Emara rooftop but was in a large company and didn't say hi. Cheers. Kenya needs visitors and immigrants like you. People who are respectful, compassionate, enlightened and ready to mingle and know Kenyans. God bless!
The worst immigrants are Ethiopians they are too stingy and selfish!..they buy from their own shops!they never buy from Kenyan shops if an Ethiopian person has shop…
Somalis are Best people!..they support locals businesses,,Somali investors employ Kenyans in their businesses..
@@fatmahnoor3717oh I didn't know this. These are Ethiopians from where? Eastleigh? Which streets do they live in there?
The ones in Hurlingham, Kilimani deemed okay some years ago. May be they have changed. Explain more. Some Kenyans make the same complaints about Somalis of not integrating properly and bringing some of their not so pleasant cultures here. I would love to hear more from you. You seem quite informed on this matter.
You can check out browns cheese farm its in tigoni they usually have tours taste couple of different cheese they produce and its cheaper do that before she leaves the country
Is this the one that abused their female employees?
Great work Ubah! Now that you have been in Kenya for a year and are fully Kenyanised you should run for office in 2027 😉You have done a good job promoting our /your country you'll surely get my vote 🤗👌
Hehe, watu ka nyinyi ndo huchocha watu alafu wanapata vote moja tu😂😂😂
Wee kumbe you can VOTE for non Kenyan?..
Has she told you she's a politician. Haki mnajipendekeza vibaya na kujikomba kwa watu.
@@DumeJeusiweh nimeuliza swali?..na si wewe nimeuliza!..
@@DumeJeusikujigomba kwa watu?..what do you mean?..
The sound was echo-ey😢
Have thoroughly enjoyed your channel whilst in Kenya. You show us more than what I've seen from other content creators for sure. Karibu Tena babes 🇰🇪 🫶❤❤❤
I really enjoyed this vlog. Sadly even us diasporas get mzungu prices. I was ripped off big time at a salon in Lavington & my friends recommended going to town rather. Kale is Sukuma wiki .. it’s delicious! Yani I’m Kenyan and never been to Eastleigh 🙈😂 l should make an effort . Otherwise l love my country Kenya 🇰🇪 and you are all welcome! Karibuni 😁
Lavington?they had to.
Sasa ukienda na kizungu mingi unategemea nini?
I agree about Eastleigh
@@DumeJeusi hakuna kizungu Lavi ni expe period. Also there’s a way ukirudi home kila mtu anakunuza na hizo pesa zako 😂😂😂 my hubby huniambia wewe baki utafanya tulipishwe chapa mob 😂😂😂
Safe journey to her....welcome back
Nairobi leave alone eastleigh is generally overwhelming especially if you are used to a less populated area.
This girls are A vIBE!..please try NYAMA Choma joints with Ugali and kachumbari..
Its expensive in kenya right now because the current government imposed lots of new and old taxes bt before life was cheaper
Lol....not true at all. The places they patronise are expensive. The Western side of Nairobi is different from the rest of Nairobi in prices and everything else. Expats and foreigners live there and the businesses there knows that.
Everything is overpriced in Nairobi.
I enjoyed this interview👏🏾👏🏾 more videos please 😍
Happy you liked it 🤗
Great interview. Blessing and safe travels.
😅😊Your friend is a vibe!!and she's super smart and kind❤❤,😍😍
She is 🤗
Wow I thought you guys were sisters. Masha Allah love the Q & A.
If you guys haven't already you should visit arboretum park in Nairobi
I love that park
Hi guys! Sukuma is kale. Spinach is spinach, no swahili word for it. But people make no distinction here in kenya when serving. It could have been spinach but the waiter or menu said sukuma.
Our sukuma is collard greens, spinach - Swiss chard.
Spinach in swahili is Mchicha.
Mercy .. we welcome you back again and again.. am in moghadishuu its coming up too
Dutch Flowers 💐 and Kenyan 🇰🇪 💐 🌹 🌸...largest world exporters
Nice talk ! You can learn Swahili online...pole pole...you can easily pick the language....but that's different from Sheng
Hey just stumbled upon your channel
you are pretty, humble and your videos are realistic and the quality is amazing
Can't wait to watch more of your content
Thank you so much!! ❤️
You should come to Naivasha..hells gate park, Crater lake, and Mt. Longonot
Somehow you resemble are you relatives?.... anyway i love your loyalty gals❤🇰🇪
There is no place like home amongst your own. Something special about that. It's healthy.
Amazing video hopping to make a video togather in your next one
Excellent ladies of description...Do not miss my media tour when i visit Kenya, circa a little after Easter.
People don't understand that the first offer by a vendor is a pitch and even they expect you to haggle.
About the slums, the government has started a housing program where they're building housing across Kenya. Kibera is one of the area targeted by the slum upgrade program but some people don't want the program to continue. They're constantly fighting the government.
It is really sad. We politicise everything when somebody finally wants to do something about it.
We have stereotyped politicians so much that when one of them tries to do something right we think it's a stunt to take money away from the public... But big up to President Ruto though... The only working president who doesn't get flowers but criticism
@@_thee_outlaw Facts. The guy is trying to clean the mess he inherited but everyone is on his neck criticising him for every imaginable thing. I hope in a few years he will prove everyone wrong.
@@alexchui3511 he sure will surprise everyone... And his tours across the globe are bearing fruits
NBA has opened their fourth African office in Kenya🤯 what a milestone.
The government is NOT building housing for slum dwellers! Never! Wacha kudanganya watu!
Absolute pleasure having you in kenya. Karibu Kenya
You know we have Kenyan Somalis so you fit right in good example for the other diaspora who are afraid to venture Africa
The ones here are zombified and full of religious bigotry. These ones seem much more enlightened. I doubt they mix with their kin that much.
@@DumeJeusiyou’re very ignorant and intolerant. She does mix with Somalis and she has family here
@@DumeJeusi Actually you are uninformed. The ones you are referring to are the ones from Somali.
Lerruat log Resort is mentioned that's it's not like being in Africa, because of The luxity and very safe.
Welcome To lerruat
I’m sorry about the sad bits. Tbt I am Kenyan and they’ll try to rip you off based on how you look so speaking some Sheng (mixing Swahili with English is easier as you don’t have to learn the whole lingo) but I love that you went ‘there’ like Eastleigh which I think I would need some Dutch Courage. The ‘Parking Boys’ have always been an issue and it’s another sadly increasing thing. Would you hire a car ever? What hair places? Best eats for price and cleanliness? Best places to rent they are secure please please? Lovely video girlies 🙏🏽❤️. Thanks for the tips too! You’ve done the country justice 🎉🎊
❤️❤️❤️
Please expose that nail salon
We did 😅
Nice interview i like it, Kales are sukuma and spinach is different type of sukuma, FYI Kenya is the country with most Somalians outside Somalia. Meisy have a safe journey to Ethiopia and Somalia next time your welcome to visit Kenya with your family
Ethiopia has more 😅
@@brayo144 wacha kiherehere hatutauza jina ya Kenya juu yako 😊
@davidkariuki7360 You people speak a lot of nonsense. They don't like you and would be happy to take over your country and throw you out as theirs is shittt. Wacha kujipendekeza kama Malaya wewe Kariuki
Sukuma is collard greens and our spinach is swiss chard.
Surprised they they didn't mention the traffic jam in Nairobi!! It's crazy😅
It’s in the video 😂
Yes,but organized, though options are there,just persevere if you have to go through some 🙏
Did you guys go to where the lion king iconic scene was taken??? Where simba was addressing the kingdom?
where is that?
Cockney Somalian visiting Nairobi, wow nice to know you visited the Little Somalia in Eastleigh, Ex Kenyan in London, did you visit the pose Mogadishu in Westlands Nairobi, very secular pose somalis
You queens are gorgeous
Safe Flight miss Somalia... love you my Somali sisters... you was fun watching...cool peoples❤
Missed u gal...fab interview...kudos
Why aren’t you allowed to give groceries to the folks less fortunate?
Probably because it inadvertently funds & promotes human trafficking, many of the beggars you see in Nairobi are not Kenyans, they're vulnerable people from neighbouring countries like Tanzania & Burundi who are trafficked into Kenya & forced to beg on the streets, to make a killing for some greedy individuals. Look up "forced to beg" on here, BBC Africa did a segment about it, there's also a discussion on Spice FMs RUclips channel where some Kenyan presenters talk about it.
@@thorfinn7291 omg!! 😱 Didn’t know that, I will definitely check it out
Wow one year!you are Kenyan now.
Perioddtttt 💅
@@utheblueprint😂😂😂. A Kenyan man maybe?
yooo! we on a roll 🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤
❤️
Visit Limuru, outskirts of Nairobi Camellia Gardens Limuru
Great interview. Karibu tena
Thank you 😊
All you guys 😊 look like Kenyans.
❤️
Hhhhhhh are you serious
swahili is similar to arabic in so many ways
Absolutely 💯
It's a Bantu language grammar-wise with a few Arabic phrases and vocabulary thrown in. The fact that these borrowed words are used regularly in conversation is what makes you think they are similar but Swahili is 93% Bantu even a Zambian, Malawian, Namibian or South African can pick it within a few weeks.
@@DumeJeusiwrong. Language donors to Swahili.
1. Arabic-35%
2. English -4.6%
3. Portuguese -1%
4. Hindi- 3.9%
5. Persian -3.4%
6. Malagasy -0.4%
Sukuma is kale...but they'll also call spinach sukuma sometimes - although all of it is "mboga", which means veggies. Sorry to hear about the robbery incident... but that's why Nairobi is referred to as Nairobbery!! And those racist incidences are unfortunately common in Nairobi because of the expat community who separate themselves from locals.
Love you guys ❤.
Love you 🥰
BTW, Somalia and Kenya is really like one country. Kenya has a large and thriving Somali community - with Eastleigh being their main commercial base.
Unajipendekeza kama Malaya. We are not and can never be one country
Aje sasa! Wapi na wapi!!?
@@DumeJeusiwhy would you object that?
@@nomadstar5454 why would any country in this world 🌍 want to be considered the same as shithole Somalia? Surely? Are you even serious? I know misery loves company but Kenya and Som is like light and day. The fact that there are some ethnic somalis in Kenya should never confuse anyone that we are similar.
@@DumeJeusi
Thank you for your comment ni shenzi type
beautiful
Yes your friend could pass as a Kenyan. 🥰
Hakuna matata came from a Kenyan song, how is that a Tanzanian phrase?
Karibu Nairobi
Sorry for the security scare
Why didn't you leave the nail shop?
Is your friend vlogging her journey?
my city is bangin' y'all yah digg so, y'all welcome n enjoy the VIBE.
Nakupenda Mercy😘
Mko tu sawa...kama Kenya imewakubali basi ujue uko home. Lakini accent ni ya wakoloni...mjue lugha ya taifa haraka...
You are both so gorgeous
Thank you ☺️
Who are these gorgeous African queens??
What’s the name of her RUclips channel?
He he oranje boven❤❤❤❤
The problem you think Kenya things are very cheap. Kenya has become very expensive even than in Europe in some items. In Eastleigh if you go very modern your counterparts will not like it
Interesting, which items might these be? 🤔
Maintain your Somalia accent and Kenyans will embrace you as one of them as we have Kenyans Somalis.
😢😢😢😢 I am sad for you. Hayna akili ingine? Huwa unavuka Barabara aje?
What's her channel ❤
Kale is sukuma wiki.
Freshman here..ok..gonna do concerts now
One year already? When’s the meet & greet beautiful?
Thinking?? 🤔 🤗
Looking forward ❤@@utheblueprint
what do you work as in Kenya?

Sukuma is kale in English.
What do you do for a living??

Sorry sis. You didnt go to a Kenyan salon; you went to a mzungu salon(white people salon) No wonder the treatment. We are so sorry for that experience
