I appreciate it.
Haven't been home in a while, your videos have brought me so much joy!!! Thank you for sharing your journey with us ❤️
kai wiku?
Fanya bidii uende visit regularly... niligonga almost miaka kumi na tano, siku recognize nyumbani time nilirudi.
@@bigme5223 waaaaaaah miaka kumi na tano ni mingi Mungu Wangu. Praying I can afford to go back atleast within the next 4/5 years
@@marionmaina5849 well si unajua vile diaspora time huenda spidi. Unafunga macho kidogo halafu ukifungua hivi unapata Dec imefika. Every year unangoja vitu ziwe perfect (financially)..eventually nilirealize nitangoja forever nikaamka nikatoka. Tangu then naenda every yr for at least 3 months and bettered myself while at it.
@@bigme5223 you are so right on that. Time here is on steroids. The days are long but the years are short. May God help us to make the time count.
Kenya and their women are absolutely gorgeous. Keep the videos coming.
Sly departed the States and isn't looking back. I enjoy your videos and I appreciate someone from the West finally giving Africa some travel attention.
Sly is really creating a travel channel! That's what's up man.
Hes like the new Gabrial traveler
Sly thank you for the video. It is so important to show Nairobi for the modern cosmopolitan city that it is. And the fact that it can be chilly and overcast in Africa. Btw the bread is called CHAPATI. It was brought to Africa by Indian laborers/traders .
So what's so special about chilly and overcast weather? Most countries in Eastern and Southern Africa experience this kind of weather in May-August ("winter"). Plus, Nairobi is nearly 6,000 feet above sea level. It tends to get chilly at night and mornings year round.
@@chairman76 You are obviously enlightened. I live in America. The vast majority of Americans have never traveled outside of their state let alone country. They think of Africa as an oppressively hot, most undeveloped jungle (people living in huts wearing loin cloths). This is the image that the media feeds them. I am simply trying to highlight the real Africa.
Our cuisine is a mixture of many cultures that have interacted with us in the last 200 hundred years. These include the Arabs, Portuguese, Chinese, European (especially the British due to colonialism), and India. The Indian community came as indentured slaves to build the Kenya -Uganda railway in 1895. Afterwhich they settled here, in fact they are so intertwined in our history which includes fighting for our independence that Indian is the 46th tribe in Kenya. So you'll find in a Kenyan home we include dishes such as pilau, chapati, biriyani, beef, chicken masala, etc.
Love ❤️ it, well put.
Hy
How is poeple there
@@muhammadakmal5405 Very welcoming, they love to do business. The real estate industry is booming, many foreigners come to invest
Indentured laborers.. not indentured slaves.. lol..
New subscriber here, really enjoyed this video as I don't travel (can't afford it) but I enjoy exploring the world with channels like yours so thanks for these videos, I look forward to catching up and to seeing more from you
That was a lot of walking you did! Thank you for braving our cold weather, I thoroughly enjoyed the tour.
You should visit a Nairobi neighborhood called Nairobi West. It has a lively drinking life at night due to its bars in the shopping center. It's only a short drive from the Central Business District. You'll get an authentic feel of African middle class living. The shopping center has two sides (front and back). Both sides have bars. Nairobi West is on the way to Nairobi National Park or the airport if you're coming from the Central Business District. There are also Airbnbs in the area.
This looks like a Sunday afternoon when the streets are nearly empty.
Thanks for the video. I been here in nairobi for few days. Love it here. Kenyan people are very friendly and very helpful.great food everywhere, and the best thing is you will never get lost because everyone speak English. If you have a chance check out the market in eastleigh, very busy crazy area lol, but i like it . Love Kenya 🇰🇪
It’s always an amazing experience while you’re in your motherland, enjoy
Looking forward to the rest of this series. Nice interview in the middle of the video, beautiful women
I think you chose the worst time to travel to Kenya it's "winter" ( a particularly bad one by our standards) and during an election period where basically most services go to the dogs ,eg street clean up etc, but it still seems you had a good time though , hope you go to Mombasa , the weather if fairer !
I really enjoyed watching every minute of this video 😘
Honestly this is super cool. I love that tall round building I saw. Nairobi is beautiful ❤️
Nairobi looks like a great city
You need to find flyovers or footbridges to cross the roads. You can be arrested for just running acros the highway like you do
Also, Kenya wasn't named after Kenyatta, the guy just changed his name from Kamau wa Muigai to Jomo Kenyatta
It was funny there, sly thought one of the security companies was government people and took a turn.
I like how modern Nairobi looks, very nice video. Can't wait to visit many countries in Africa soon. I just wished they worked more on the sidewalks and add some grass around will be super great.
The futuristic-looking building at 1:05 was so beautiful I had to look it up. Turns out it's One Africa Place. I've been to Johannesburg but never to Nairobi. Seems like Jo'burg's infrastructure is a little better than Nairobi's, but I could be wrong.
Of course Jo'burgs infrastructure is better, but currently there's lots of construction going on in Nairobi hence most roads and sidewalks have been torn down to expand some roads.
As a Nairobian I'd say Jo'burg's infrastructure is way a head but Nairobi is slowly bridging the gap. Just needs some great leadership and some cleaning here and there.
Yeah, Jozy is better in terms of infrastructure but Nairobi is getting there. Jo Berg is a developed city, and Nairobi is a developing city
looks like a submarine
It's not really a cold front. It's just the cold season this time of year. It's funny that we are one equator but follow souther hemisphere patterns especially the higher the altitude. Some towns go below 0 at night.
I wanted to respond to you about the ethnic groups of Kenya cause you saw people who looked like Ethiopians but they told you they are Kenyan.
So Kenya is divided into ;
NIlotes; They migrated from Egypt then went to south Sudan then other parts of east Africa (found in Sudan, South Sudan, Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Uganda
Bantus migrated from central Africa specifically congo they are now found in east, central n southern parts of Africa
Cushites ; They migrated from horn of Africa
Afro Arabs who are mostly from Mombasa if you go to Mombasa you will sew its due to the east African n middle east slave trade quite a number of them are mixed /look like they are from the middle east
Asians ; Indians were brought to Kenya by the British as laborers during colonization they have been here ever since
In total we have 47tribes. Kenya is also known to be the only country with a Perfect mixture of Cushites, Bantus n nilotes
Some people look like horners in Kenya due to the intermarriages and mixing in the past people always think my mom n sister are either Somalis or Ethiopians but we are Kenyans
Let me also add another layer to the Indians in Kenya (and perhaps more of Kenyan history). The Indians did not only come as indentured servants to Kenya with the British, there are also Indians that came and settled here during Portuguese occupation at the Coast. This is why you'll meet Indians in Mombasa who are catholic - these are the Goan Indians from the island of Goa who were under Portuguese occupation and were sent to come to Mombasa and help fight the Omani Arab invaders trying to take over Mombasa and Fort Jesus.
Also, due to trade there was alot of backflow between the Swahili and India. This is why the Sidhi in India, which is a community of African looking Indians, still speak a variation of Swahili until today. They are basically waSwahili that settled and mixed in India. I met a Sidhi once while studying outside and it was like long lost brothers meeting one another haha.
@@jayo7812 oh thank you i did not know that i actually thought the indians from mombasa came as traders i was not aware of the ones who came to helpp fight the omans thanks for informing me
Watching from Florida. Want to visit Giraffe Manor, someday.
It's very very expensive, even for an American. I'd advise you do your research well before visiting. There are countless many other spots to visit over here. Is the Manor worth the experience? Well, I dunno, but I think not in regards to value for money. 10,000 dollars boarding just to feed giraffes. Anyway, at the end of the day, the decision lies with you.
@@chriswamahiu8751 thank you Chris. Great advise. Maybe not much to do at the Giraffe Manor. I think, from what I’ve read, $1,200 for one night. Don’t know if this is for a single. Again, thank you for your great advise.
@@lindaclark1406 definitely it's not 10K it's about 900 to 2K depending with the season. The accommodation and service is great but not out of this world kind of thing. I guess you pay for the experience. The money goes not just for expenses but to keep the conservation effort going.
If travelling on a tighter budget, try The Giraffe Center, right next door. it's cheaper. You may not wake up to a breakfast table while feeding a giraffe but you still get to feed and kiss a giraffe 🦒.
Giraffe Centre- next to Giraffe Manor is a public Centre. Just a few dollars entry.
Spend part of your day feeding giraffes and learning about them.
A lovely experience.
The buildings are world class, however, due to the dirty streets, it subdue the city's beauty. Unlike Rwanda, and other few African countries, the maintenance and upgrade of roads on the continent is very poor. African cities are beautiful from above, and dirty when at the street level.
Depends on where you are tbh. Like in Kisumu they have good roads and buildings just like Rwanda.
I have traveled to alot of world renowned cities and alot of them is like that bro. I think the only difference I see from the video is that the sidewalks are unpaved and alot of vendors on the actual streets
"I don't know if Kilimanjaro is in Kenya or Tanzania", that one got me laughing!.. 🤣🙈
It’s winter in east and Southern Africa this time of the year !!
Cool of you to visit my city and showcasing it's beautiful culture.👏☺️
It’s winter time in Eastern and Southern region of Africa this time of the year !!
It does not winter around the Equator we experience cold because of the Southern winter blown in by winds from the Indian Ocean
Look forward to more of Nairobi.
New subscriber. Thanks.
Be careful, these big vans(matatus): don’t stop for somebody to cross, and at times even the standard cars
Mt Kilimanjario , Tanzinia is the highest Mt in Africa . You should try to make that hike if you are up for it. Cant wait to see your safari footage .
I'm surprised you found Nairobi "chilly". After all, the city sits almost 1800m above sea level, which is over 100m higher than Denver! Cloud cover is not unusual at this altitude, as anyone living in Kabul would tell you. As someone from rural Kenya myself, we refer to Nairobi as "Nairobbery" because of the costs and the pervasive street hustlers. Nairobi is as typical of Kenya as NY is of the US or London of the UK. Still, I'm pleased you enjoyed our capital. Too few foreign tourists come out to Western Kenya. Perhaps, next time?
Mt kilimanjaro is a boarder mountain....it used to be in kenya back in the days but went to tanzania later....peak of the mountain is in tanzania for sure but part of it is in kenya.
Looks somewhat like Dominican Republic, the people and motoconchos.
Walks and shows very curvy sidewalk and road then remembers young ladies curves😂
I’m traveling to Mombasa in a few months. So excited.
It's gonna be hot anytime after August. Nice for the beach tho.
Beautiful Nairobi,
Another great video, keep up the good work Sly.
Speaking of things named after the first president, we have estates in various towns, major roads, 2 universities, a hospital, a couple of high schools and primary schools, and of course a building and an airport.
Visit Kisumu for sure. Clean, friendly beautiful.
Looks really cold in Nairobi! I'm seeing scarves, jackets, layering up.....High of 74 today, low of 51 today.
It's 13-17° right now
Love it men when brothers came here and having fun am born here was in the States my son is so scared of coming over hope he sees this. And changes is mind have fun homie

Finally a content creator who is not afraid to leave his comfort zone, welcome to Kenya my brother you are home..
Hey man I really like your videos. I actually have a friend who owns land in Roatan, so I'm excited to go myself
Wow Tnx bro good
While you on that side i hope you can make it to South Africa. You definitely will enjoy yourself there. I'm tryna make it back there this year.
June to around August is kind like our winter that's why the weather is like that
Nice. Made it to the motherland. Congrats
yes the stew is missing, you don’t eat dry chabati
很漂亮的城市，看着充满了活力，人们也很热情😄。而且我看到了达美乐披萨🤣，我很喜欢这家店，经常去他们店里吃披萨。我在中国·杭州，我这里达美乐店也越来越多了😁
Wow!! Nice video that's my capital city come to Mombasa too it's cool,i do the same videos you do,i do walking in areas in Mombasa maybe when you come we can do a video together.
Cool Video serach for miss Brittney in Africa she can bring you round in nairobi.
New Subscriber here, welcome to Kenya my friend! Feel free to visit 2 rivers mall while you're here😉
Sly you really got to go to Uhuru Gardens Museum, you will not be disappointed!
We are enjoying your good work bro
Long time no see. This is John Traylor from Scott AFB.
The way you are crossing the roads 🙆♂️. You need a guide
U & your adventures are amazing! Stay safe Sky😉🙏🏼
THANK YOU FOR SHARING! AWESOME . I LIKE WHEN YOU DO VIDEOS, ON "LIKE,DISLIKES, AND WOULD I COME BACK HERE AGAIN"
Great video very interesting thank you ,
The women in Kenya are just Amazing! 👌
You should hang out with @Brittney in Africa she's a vibe and will show you around
She is ignorant
Cool vids. Awesome channel
1. Get a mic for the gopro or whatever youre using so we can hear the women.
2. Introduce who they are - and ask specific, pointed questions.
3. your channel will grow if you do this.
Quick Google search yielded that Kenya’s winter is July - October (and is one of 2 dry seasons). 😉😁 I went to South Africa in February (coming from DC) b/c it was their summer and I wanted to enjoy the outdoors (and the beaches).
It's not really Winter per se, we are along the Equator. It's just cold due to the Southern winter, blown in by winds
you got go to Lamu in kenya if you want to see something spectacularly different and unique
For Kenyan History you should go to Uhuru gardens.
You need to cross the road at the designated crossing points
You are a joy...new subscriber here..thanks
Have fun but don't get your drinks spiked in a bar by some cutties
check out the matatu culture..our mode of transportatin
Damn, home sweet home, Nairobi my city, these are my streets, I kinda miss Nairobi but not the joblessness, one day I’ll be back one-day but till then à bientôt!
Thank your video，I like to follow your live in Nairobi
You came during the wrong time of year, I stayed in Nairobi 2 weeks ago, it was freezing. I'm now in Kisumu, 28 C weather. 😎
Yall don't come for me, but everytime I watch videos of people traveling to Africa its common to see people preparing your food without gloves and often actually touching your already prepared food.
As a provider in Healthcare this always frightened me. The food looks sooo good though and most travelers come out ok obviously I have seen cases when they haven't. I haven't visited myself yet and I want to but that has always been a reserve of mine .
The general rule of the thumb when traveling, is to eat where you see many of your peers or the local version of your peers. Try to avoid deserted places.
I have lived in this city and know that these are illegal street food vendors and most locals don't even eat their snacks/ food.
Most of these street vendors don't even have basic licenses and permits to sell food to the public but they survive by bribing local authority's inspectors who patrol to curb this menace.
In this city, restaurants & eateries are required by law to desplay their licenses and food handling permits where they can be seen by their customers. This is what i used to look out for when i first came there and didn't know my way around.
You need to try Chapati with that mbuzi soup. I miss Kenya and TZ.
One Afrika Place 😳 looks nice. Which business/company is the main tenant there?
11:50 Money truck is government people 😃😃 that was funny.
How you like to go en San Francisco Del Rincon Guanajuato Mexico
Should visit Sabina joy
Wonderful watching live from Japan 🇯🇵 🇺🇬🌍🌏🌎🇺🇬
It seems Nairobi has Medellin-like weather!
Great video.
Me and sly uploading travel videos on the same day? Lets goot
Late-winter in Kenya is like late-winter in most places it seems. The food looks so good too.
Also, only Sly would be amazed that African women in Kenya got body🤣🤣🤣 This tells me a lot about Seattle😂 (I’m just joking, nothing serious). Am interested in seeing what a winter safari looks like compared to other seasons.
This time of year is our winter in Kenya.
Ngl I used to hate but you grew on me. Nobody else does content like this
That chapati looked aweful😂😂
it was burnt
Kilmajaro is in TANZANIA, TALLEST MOUNTAIN..
Nairobi is becoming messier and messier......this is westlands yet one can confuse it to eastlands.....
Why do people who visit Africa always think it's very hot and there are wild animals on every corner? Congratulations on eating like one of us from your clip the day you arrived. I was afraid you'll use a fork and knife.
The Kenyan BBQ is the Bombay!! CHOMA
Hope to see my man enjoying a Matatu ride
Be careful too Nairobi phone snatchers are so many so be careful.
How's the noise and pollution in the city Sly? Kenya has some cute women there.
It depends on which part of the city you are on. Near bus terminus and public transport, roads, are the noisiest, also the most polluted in terms of air pollution. Visibility in Nairobi is tens to hundreds of kilometers, so the air is quite ok. I Am told that in some parts of China visibility is less than a mile. Kind of hard to comprehend how that is even possible. Our main problem is solid waste management, and of course, sometimes, foul water management.
10:29 my man👊🏻😂
The chapatis are not coocked enough, typical with most on the streets always making substandard to save a few bucks,
😆 you do so much growing just walking 🚶♂️ I know when a woman get a hold of you the entire hotel 🏨 know 😉 😀 😄
Hi from which company did you book the safari?
The third woman who sat down had an outstanding body. You didn't even get her number
You slimmed down. How did you do it?
