Hey Dorothy : I watch you from a foreign country country, UK to be specific. I feel your experience in kenya, a foreign country with kids and husband, but hey 6 months have gone. The most important think is that you have braved it and I'm happy that you made kenya your home. I won't lie to you, there have been challenges and more may come your way but it's how you face them and adapt to them. But certainly you will enjoy being in kenya than in America. Welcome home.
Yes Jacques your right! 🥰🤌🏾 I do enjoy life here so much more than in America I knew there had to be more to life than the one ☝🏾 I was living. I will keep moving forward for there’s no sense in looking back. Just so very happy we didn’t listen to the naysayers and we moved in Gods will! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I appreciate you as a supporter so much! Asante Sana for your kind words! 🫶🏾🙌🏾💯
As a Kenyan who has lived in America for a decade...all I can say is KARIBU NYUMBANI!! Africa is your home and your BIRTHRIGHT!!! NOBODY should ever make you feel like you don't belong! 💯🦾
I discovered your channel today and i cant believe it has taken me this long, i have probably watched all your Videos😅, subscrribed too.. welcome home and tunakupenda
Asante sana @ Dorothy Musa for making Kenya your home, as mentioned many "AAs" move to Ghana maybe bcoz of their publicity of their year of return thing and yes there are 54 countries on the continent to chose from including Kenya, you made the right choice as Kenya outperform Ghana on some indices including the economy and a perfect weather. The fear of the unknown, no one escapes this whichever place you want to go and once you're there one thing never leaves you, missing your loved ones/place of origin and so learning to cope is very important while also embracing new culture of your new home.
Ndio! I’m glad Kenya 🇰🇪 was our first stop on this amazing continent! I’m definitely going to explore the other countries,however I truly feel that Kenya will always have my ❤️ I’d love to build here! Ndio Ghana 🇬🇭 markets well and there’s a ton of AA I heard there! I’ll visit. I’m glad I stayed here for there were countless times I wanted to just get back to comfort and the “normality of my old life” I knew I need to stay though for this life the people weather etc is everything I dreamed of! I appreciate you and your support! 🙏🏾🫶🏾💯
I love your video and how open you are. I can relate with seeing the good in all people!!. You have a lot of courage, to do what you’ve done, more than I. You motivate me!!!!
It’s exciting to see where you use to live and memories pop up! I get it! I see my old street and get excited about that 😂. Glad you enjoy the video! 🙏🏾🤗
I appreciate your honesty because me and my wife are about ready to do the same thing and she is afraid because we’re going to Ghana because we know some people there,but we know no one in Kenya,I will be showing her your video. And would love any advice or help we can receive. Be Blessed
Congratulations on the move! I’m so happy for you and your wife! 😃🙌🏾 I’m glad you got a sense of peace while watching my video. My advice would be to embrace the unknown. Connect with like minded people such as us and stay connected to each other as well as build a home here. Connect with the locals and explore and learn your area. The quicker you do that. The sooner you’ll feel comfortable with the area your in.
The last thing any AA...ASouth American, ACarribean is that they won't be welcomed anywhere (reservations on Northern Africa though..) in Africa. Asante for getting that message out, from an informed and experience point. Also be advised, an African friendship has a firmer foundation. Tuko pamoja.
Asante for your support and kind words Herby! 😄 Yes come you’ll love it! I’m glad I can be that extra push to visit here! I’ll keep it going for sure! 🙏🏾💪🏾
Love your channel. You always keep it real. Your feeling and emotions are honest and pure. My fear? A black AA woman, retired and coming alone. Question: Not knowing what you didn't know before you got there, would you have come alone?
First off I thank you Asante Sana 🙏🏾 for seeing me and appreciating me for me! Now to your queen YES YES! 😃 I would have come alone!! There’s soo many single women I met here in the expat group that came here alone and travel to other countries alone! There soo inspiring. I would have been one of them I just met my hubby at a very early age ☺️😆 I’m so glad that I have a partner that moves in faith and is a great supporter in this family! We came here never visiting not knowing anyone just by faith and knowing that the life we wanted and desired can be achieved here! I’d say move in faith and follow what drives you! I’d come here 1000 times over! 1000 times over by myself! I’m actually going to visit a country by myself! Hopefully this year we’ll see 🤗 🇬🇭 hope this helps you 🤗
@@Dolledupandthangs Awesome. So looking forward to more videos from you guys. Your content is amazing, and I'm sure your channel will grow quickly! Have you tried to make any Kenyan food yet? 😂
@@sandrasgotvoice Asante 😊 and in due time the right people will find us I’m enjoying the journey that’s fosho 🤗 and eventually I may get noticed in public 😳 soo enjoying that now too 😂 not being noticed! I’m delusional I know or am I? 😂 and yes girl I have! You seen my Chai video and my making chapatis video?! You’ll laugh and learn too I hope 🤞🏾 I’m definitely in need of making ugali,stew, so that’ll come soon 😬🤞🏾👏🏾
If you braved the protests from a few weeks ago, then you are built to live there. I moved to the US fairly young and I'm finally visiting in a few months after almost a quarter century???!! I can't wait to reconnect and decompress from all the pressures here. Thanks to youtubers like you and others, I already have a mental map of what's awaiting. I'M READYYYY!
Omg yesss!!!! This it what it’s all about for me! Words can’t express how happy Iam to hear this from you!!! I’m soo grateful that I can inspire and even motivate you to come to the motherland! Can’t wait! 🤗🙌🏾🙏🏾🇰🇪 I’m definitely going to showcase everything I can! Soo glad my videos helped you!!!
I see you are at the coast with kids, maybe mombasa. I used to live there and I tell you, you will enjoy being there. Mombasa Raha (Mombasa full of Joy. Raha=joy). Usiku mwema (good night. Usiku=night, mwema=good)
Nice 😊 Asante for the new vocabulary! Ndio I wanna go back to the coast! I just back to Nairobi! I need some quietness in my life! I love the city, but prefer to live outside of it! 🫠😬
The journey of conquering the fear of the unknown has been surmounted and is now behind you. You adapt, assimilate and eventually become just like the locals. Nirvana is within your reach, grab it!
truly blessed to have people like you reminding me of how far I come and where Iam now! I appreciate you more than you know! Asante Kaka! Asante!!! 🙏🏾🙌🏾🇰🇪
Im actually amazed because i could meet your family on they street and i wouldn't even know you are not kenyans unless i heard you speak😂..but kenya is a hidden gem since you don't need to earn alot to live a comfortable lifestyle..but most people outside the country don't know because of how the media potrays us
Ndio! Hence why I’m on this platform spreading knowledge and light in regards to life in Kenya and living abroad period! The media will never show positive light on Africa unless we do! It’s crazy how mostly every nationality is here! They didn’t miss the memo! 🏃🏽♀️ and yes most people speak to me in Swahili until I speak and let my accent out then they go are you Caribbean most people think I’m Caribbean but I speak Swahili 😂 there’s black peoples there too we everywhere so I dnt mind.
At first we did the tourist visa for 3 months then you’d have to leave the country every time to renew it. It’s a process.🤦🏽♀️ There’s a couple visas you can work towards. Work permit I’d say that one would be the easiest and less expensive route. We’re not 35 yet but there’s a visa you can go for once you hit that age. I know people that done that one too. I believe it’s the k visa or G 🤔. I hope this helps. 🙏🏾 pole pole it takes time as long as you applied your good for the work permit.
No his not and we came here through faith a ton of Kenyans we met before we came here there were so many reasons and signs that we landed in Kenyan first! Yes a ton of AAs are in Ghana 🇬🇭 I’m sure we’ll visit! I love knowing that we are we’re it all started! The womb of the world 🌎 🤗🙏🏾 feel at home anywhere in this continent! Just glad to be here! And so glad Kenya welcomes us!
Such a bold decision to make moving to Kenya with family, while we are hustling day and night to get our families to the USA so that they can acquire good affordable education and good jobs. May your family never lack while you are here. Karibuni sana.
Ndio the lifestyle here is just simpler more family oriented and peaceful to me and the way people treat each other here like humans! Even arguing is passive! People respect people here their lives and well being. In America they give 2 fs about you and it shows in the people, government, schools, and soo on and soo on. I’d choose Kenya over America any day. I get why people want to go though it’s advertised well and you can make money but dnt let the money make you and that’s usually sadly what happens another person gets stuck in my eyes. The true meaning of life gets lost 😞
