I simply love the sincerity paired with a wonderful sense of humor, spoken with a beautiful tone of voice. Watching your videos humble me, they put a genuine smile on my face, and it makes me happy. Thank you. ❤
You are a one woman tourism board! Africa is da future. Babe you go girl! Stay proud and strong. Don't explain. Sometimes the unconscious bias polite ones can be even more patronising without meaning to be...now that is messed up. Rock drop. Boom. Keep on making I'll keep on sharing. ❤❤💪
I truly love you! It is so amazingly beautiful the way you educate us. I am in North Carolina, USA and for various reasons probably will never be able to travel but I really love to learn about different cultures and you are simply the best! ❤ tons of love coming your way from across the world. P.S love the “pillow” 😂😂 your humor is truly appreciated. 🤗
I am an older woman living on a small farm in Pennsylvania USA. I have been asked if we had email? Hahahaha! I typically say, “No. we use pigeons!” I understand your frustration! It’s insulting for sure! Those people are ignorant of the TRUTH 🙏🙏🙏
Well I, for one, have learned a lot and had some of my ignorance fixed. I really appreciate your videos, and the chance to learn how you live. My son-in-law is from Kenya and I ask him things all the time, too, because that's how ignorance is fixed BUT you are right about there being some people that are just being rude, and I'd say willfully ignorant. Your videos answering those folks make me laugh. 😂 My favorite is the one about growing cell phones. 😂😂😂
I love learning! And I've learned so much from you. I greatly appreciate you. Please don't let people hurt you. You don't deserve that. Stay strong and teach us some more.
Ain't nothing wrong with sass and sarcasm. I've met other people from Uganda who also have a very good sense of humor and like to poke fun at the silly things in life! ❤
The ending 😂😂😂😂 Africa is beautiful, Uganda is beautiful, I love the nature. I wish to have a chance to travel there someday, I want to be a biologist so maybe through work someday 💕
I love your videos, and I think Africa is part of the key to every person on this earth. All races. All people. Even if I may be shocked by some things, I really appreciate you and the work you put into your videos and to show your culture. Please keep going ♥
I love your videos and appreciate the humor! That said, those dumb questions some people ask, I don’t think they’re trying to be rude or negative in any way, a lot of folks genuinely just don’t know! You see, in the west, our mainstream media has a way of presenting the world in the way that they want us to believe it is. Honestly, I’ve never seen the beautiful side of Africa shown on TV here in America! If you watch TV here, they will show the programs where they’re asking for donations to help starving children in Africa and the educational channels will run programs highlighting the children dying from malaria and other diseases. They never show us the way most people actually live in beautiful villages and work with the nature around them. They never show us the large modernized cities where folks live the same lifestyles that we live over here. It’s really unfortunate that so many folks in western civilization are inherently ignorant to the ways of the world outside of their own❤
and I think the frustrating thing for content makers is not that you don't know, but you don't think. and don't want to know. If you are watching a video someone is filming and uploading from Uganda, you can assume they have cameras and internet. You can even google it. You don't have to flood the creator with questions you didn't spend 5 seconds thinking about. Even if they said "I didn't know you have wifi in Uganda!" is recognizing your own learned ignorance, versus saying "I watched your video and I missed the point and I am letting you know your message isn't getting through"
I think it's a good policy in general to assume that everyone on the internet is a troll until proven otherwise 😅 It's saved me a lot of time and frustration.
I love this. My mother was a college student in the late 1950s-early 1960s, and her roommate was from Ethiopia. Never mind that Aunt Terry was a diplomat's daughter, she was still a black woman attending a predominantly white Christian college in California -- other students would ask her, "Do they have toilet paper there? What do you use when you're on your menstrual cycle?" My mom would start giggling because Aunt Terry would say, "Oh, we just use banana leaves, and when it's that time of the month, we fill a banana leaf with grass."
❤you are wonderful ...I love all your videos and education....you're such a wonderful human soul and the best example to us all...I just want you to know how much I appreciate you!
You know sis, I'm a born and raised New Yorker now living in rural North Carolina. In NYC you get to experience the "melting pot" of all people from all four corners of the earth. Since I grew up there, my mind is set there, not in North Carolina. I have had the opportunity to work for Nigeria Airways and a limo company owned by an gentleman from Ghana, and the company that I currently work for the owner is a gentleman from Ghana. So, as you can see I love my brother's and sisters, as well as my homeland. I've never visited the Homeland, but I'm still considering relocating there. It's a different mindset when you live somewhere where the chips were NOT created to stack in your favor on an equal field, verses the natural place from which you are literally a part of. Who knows, maybe I will be there soon.❤
I love your videos. I appreciate you sharing your day to day life. Regardless of where we are in the world (I'm in rural Ireland), we all have to do the same tasks to stay alive (like cooking food or having somewhere safe to sleep), but how we do those things is different. It's exciting to learn, and I appreciate you sharing. A while ago I saw a video you had made about the natural cooling features of the buildings in your village. Amazing! Of course in Ireland we don't have the strong sunlight of Uganda, so we don't need to keep ourselves cool, but we could save a great deal on energy costs if we used similar structures for refrigeration and pantries. It's not something everyone in Ireland can do, but it's certainly something some of us can do, and it's something I've made a note of to work towards. Even if it hadn't been personally useful, it would be interesting to see, and I think your attitude towards stupid questions is refreshing.
There are so many rude and unkind ppl in the world in general that it makes me wonder if they are deserving of your generosity that gives them a glimpse into the beautiful world you come from. In my opinion, some of these folks aren't deserving of the invite you offer into the beautiful world of Uganda you are sharing, but that is not my call, this is not my channel, and it is saddening to see ppl try to tarnish the positive content you want ppl to experience. We know you're not generalizing and the commenter was gaslighting you by feeling the need to tell you not to generalize when we all know that is not the case. That was a patronizing comment they left on your channel and they deserve the rudeness they give. There are so many nasty, low vibrational channels YT with horrible content, so me personally, I appreciate what you share about your world and have learned so much. ❤
“This is my pillow” 😂😂😂😂 I LOVE YOU Im Brazilian, raised in African-Brazilian religions, born into Candomblé of Ketu de Angola and Yorubá languages, I moved to Europe at 14 but I can only say thank you for educating people, I want to and should know more, especially with my African roots. I’m African, indigenous brazilian, I’m Italian, French and Spanish and Portuguese and German, I might look white but I get the “you have internet in Brazil?” Questions and “alligators on the street?” And can I just say your comebacks are much better than mine. Also: people, white people did REALLY believe internet came out of coconuts with banana tree leaves and wires out of the strings from the leaves and the coconuts. They really did. And we are the stupid ones. I laugh when people haven’t seen bananas before growing, and ask me how that happens “they are such a delicate fruit” and 😂😂😂😂 yes they are. You do this so well! Congratulations on being so awesome and inspiring and not losing your patience (like I do) with stupid people. Keep up being sarcastic because you are so funny. ❤
🙏 thank you for your content and sharing your experience! i feel validated - my content often stirs people to anger/confusion and rather than sit with those feelings and try to learn where I'm coming from, they comment questions in bad faith. i used to comment back and become hostile, but your content has helped me find that I'm more passionate about my creations than i am angry about their comments. god bless! as a white american feminist bear, i too champion sleeping in caves 🐻 the leaves are the softest blanket 🍁🌿😴
I do enjoy your videos, I love learning about your culture. I teach special needs adults in the workplace. We are so very fortunate to work with a very diverse group of people. Some wonderful individuals are from Uganda. I love making a connection as a stepping off point. So thank you for the knowledge. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I think it's all about the intention of the question. If you simply don't know, are curious and want to learn, there is no dumb question. Nobody was born to know everything. However, some people ask that out of looking down on others. then it's rude. Girl, continue to shine. God bless you!
Haters gunna hate and you are right not to get frustrated. I feel pity for people who are deliberately rude because I know they are not happy and they don't understand that love of the land is the most powerful thing in the world.
Joy, you always make me laugh....and once again, you remind me of Trevor's video on Zambia ansmd the escalator: "Hey, Chipua (sp?)--have you seen this!? What will they think of next?"(pulls out phone camera)
Thanks for your beautiful videos! 😍 so glad I experienced life as a youngster in similar areas. To spend time in such a rich, peaceful beautiful environment is medicine 😊🤍
Do you have horses in Africa? Jk, I know u have horses in Africa, but I think you could put together a fun video about it, because I do enjoy your sarcasm when you explain things tbh. And yes! I think some ppl live under rocks, based on the type of questions they ask sometimes. 😂
Do u have video about hygine? How people can avoid disases , bacterium? And how can people protect themselves from dangerous animals? If someone in Africa get sick how do u cure him? Do u get herbs ? What type for which illness? Do u have herb market? How does it look like?
If it makes you feel any better, 50 years ago when I was in the US and people found out I lived in France, someone once actually asked me if there were chickens in France. And there were many other stupid questions. And yes , I say stupid because that much ignorance must stem from a total lack of curiosity.
I wish the comment person would understand that being dumb about USA and about Africa in general are two different things. "Oh but here in America one day I lived the same situation that you live everyday with Uganda" it's different babe, and you need some social/history lessons if you can't grasp it by yourself. Americans and their need to include themselves in everything. I really respect you ❤
I am genuinely curious about Uganda and Africa in general, but I just google different topics to educate myself. Sometimes I ask questions, but some of the questions you get are not just rude, they are racist and offensive. I am sorry you have to experience this, and I hope that the continued colonial attitude towards Uganda and Africa as a whole someday goes away.
I can understand the person who wrote that comment. I love her videos but... I'm also not a big fan of people making fun of others or accuse them "for fun". I know it's ridiculous what some people believe but I would love your videos even more without that "accusing" 😄 😇.
I can explain this! First you are a great lady. The reason is simple: africa was slow to develop! That simple! Yes. 20 years ago in ghana, there was a city that was just bush 20 years ago. The people were bush people! I went there last month and they have uber,cell phone shops and everthing! So, most americans dont get daily updates or have time to research how far they have come in a short time. They still are way, way behind usa in development so there statements are somewhat true. P.s. i find african africans are great people. The white people in usa can be clique y and not as willing to talk
You interpret some comments as being rude, and then you respond to them by being rude; two wrongs don't make a right. You say those comments don't bother you, so why do you react with such sarcasm? I'd like to learn more about Africa from these videos, but your bad attitude is too much.
I simply love the sincerity paired with a wonderful sense of humor, spoken with a beautiful tone of voice. Watching your videos humble me, they put a genuine smile on my face, and it makes me happy. Thank you. ❤
Oh dear how sweet of you . Thank you so much ❤
Love it❤. "This land raised me..."
This is the type of gratitude we should have.

Yes! Fully agree.
You are a one woman tourism board! Africa is da future. Babe you go girl! Stay proud and strong. Don't explain.

It's not your job to educate people. You share what you want. Google exists.
Greatest dumb question comment I've seen on your videos thus far is "what time is it in Africa" 😂🙄🤦🏻♀️
