As a black Kenyan living in the US, if i tried this challenge, I'd fail horribly. Without a doubt. I think your tourist status helped big time. But indeed, Kenyans are very generous.
walai
In Texas or Florida, someone might pull a gun on you 😂
In Mombasa people help, I leave in Mombasa. Nairobi would be abit hard but I believe some people would still help
@@sabrinafitzwanga750 In some places in Europe, something as simple as asking for directions is considered suspicious or even threatening.
Because some people take advantage and not because people are not generous
Heyo! I'm back on RUclips! Just to preface, this is meant to show me connecting with the generous people of Mombasa, Kenya. To demonstrate that kindness to a fellow human is a powerful tool that can bring us closer together no matter how far apart we may seem. And it was everyone's openness to share and willingness help a stranger (me) that taught me this incredible lesson. I hope you took away a similar feeling!
Update: The nephew I slept in the same room with has learned to solve the Rubiks cube that I gave him!
Welcome back
Am a new vlogger and I could like to do collaboration we explore together in one of the weekend vlogging
However only hosted in Nairobi.
Just nice
It's true! We are all equal! We breath the same air, we bleed the same color of blood, and we will die and be barred the same ground.
This video should have million views, am a Kenyan and truly we are kind and generous 🇰🇪💯mkenya daima
Bilal is a Muslim and Mombasa is predominantly a Muslim town. The generosity comes from the Islamic religion practised by the locals.
Nothing to do with being Muslim. Did you catch all the names? They're from different religions, so stop generalising, whatever your reasons are. It's not cool at all.
Kenya is generally generous and no much religious difference yoh
The generosity is Kenyan
Kenyans all over are generous no matter the religion 😅🇰🇪kenyan spirit
Kenyan generosity not just Muslim. You are implying non Muslims are less generous.
I don’t think I stopped smiling ONCE while watching this. You’re incredibly brave and I’m very much inspired by you🏆
I am so proud of you . i kept clapping all the way. A big applause to my people for flying high our generosity trait . watching you from mombasa . Great content
I'm so proud of you that it makes me proud of me and my people in Mombasa Keep shining beautiful one brother
Kenyan people are open minded and friendly 😊
True we are
Welcome
Uwongo😂😂😂
Mombasa we the best in welcoming and if you miss your ways they will show you the way and even they can give you someone to lead you to the destination free
we throw rocks at u 😂 just joking find that phase funny 😂
In Kenya we stopped carrying cash over 20years ago,we operate via mpesa transactions, an app that do online money transactions.
Canadian who is from Kenya. Mombasa is my home city. People are very kind there. Im proud of you! I enjoyed this video so much. I will subscribe and look forward to great content from you in the future. Bless you and bless those generous humans you met.
Karibu Kenya - Thank you for beginning with the coastal town. We love visitors. We have a saying "Mgeni njoo mwenyeji apone". Which means, "Visitors come and the locals find a reason to have a good time" 😄 Kenyans will help me translate that well...
Visitor come, porwa mpaka akili

Well done buddy.....I've been doing the same thing for more than 5yrs now. It's been quite an adventure
You have vlogger quality in you, keep going, maybe it will take a year maybe three but you will reach 100k surely. I would lose the fisheye lens, and less music. I'm subscribing right now.
Nice video I like how you say Asante sana hope you enjoy your stay in Mombasa
One of my fav parts was one you were asking the two woman if they could house you for the night and they were just giggling the whole time HAHA🤣
Kindness is seeing the best in others when they cannot see it in themselves.” “Kindness is something anyone can give without losing anything themselves.” “Kindness is not what you do, but who you are
Welcome to Mombasa if you are still around we can connect.Mombasa people or Kenyans are friendly
I have a question. Can a black person do that to your country without being locked up or ignored?
Haki ya nani
Absolutely true
Good question
Gosh Jordan you took the biggest coke🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣They're very kind though.Pround of my people

Am proud to be A Kenyan Traveller My people made me proud I will try this challenge next year in India and Pakistan next year
But the guy who made you pay for a chair made me go crazy am subscribing to this channel it's the first time seeing it and have loved it already
Am also a Kenyan origin from old town in Mombasa coast. I hope you seen how coast people are kindness. You are most welcome bro Jordan.
Its a good video and you just spread love from kenya by doing this you attract more visitors i op this video can boost the tourism sector
could you pls make vlog on ethiopian new safari
Am from Kenya, Mombasa. You passed through 'Kizingo'. I love your content. Mwaaaah
Mwambie apitie kwa Mackenzie pia 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great content this one🙌🏽🙌🏽
Mombasa and kenya at large the people are just so generous ❤❤
I live in Msa. I don't hesitate to help. Bad coz some people have taken advantage of the generosity of the town. They don't wanna work, all they want to do is use lies to hustle u. Like there's this young gal i found sitted on the road at around 8pm. I asked her what was wrong. She explained to me she didn't have anything to eat, her boss had dismissed her. So i gave her five hundred, paid for her boda boda to her place, and gave her my phone number so that the following day, I will help her find some work. She didn't ever call, I only came to find her in the same place some few days later.
Wow so nyc Mombasa kenya my home ..❤❤
Welcome my friend, Mombasa is the friendliest place in Kenya
Am Kenyan. We are only generous to strangers especially foreigners 😂😂 lol
😅😊well said, kama ni mkenya...angelia😂😂

Masha Allah im proud of my people 🇰🇪 of course mombasa is muslim city people are generally friendly 🕋❤
Come over to home of champs,Eldoret we give you some fuel for your legs to run like our marathon champs
Notice how you faced ZERO racism or hostility in Kenya. Now imagine a black tourist somewhere in Europe or the U.S. trying the same challenge... I bet you can already guess the outcome.😅
This is such a wholesome video
What an underwhelming response to solving the rubix cube
Bro you're really courageous
i am proud of my town and my people .Thank you jamani Mombasa oye
Great content!
The girl (clearly Muslim by her dress) knew it would be inappropriate to take you to her place, so she called her friend to ask if he'dhost you. If that isn't kindness, then I don't know what is.
Welcome to mombada🎉
Brother welcome to the coast again
Karibu!
Am kenyan and nice to meet u
The best ending would have been rewarding the guys for their kindness. Otherwise Next time.
Tumelipalipa deni wadau😂😂
😂
There is a difference between Nairobi and Mombasa though. The Swahili people of the coast are very generous people!
This warmed my heart... Wow
Some dushbag of tourist will now come to mombasa expecting things to be free after watching this. Be ready to pay
I absolutely agree. I DO NOT want to make this a shouting call that Mombasa is free for tourists. Mombasa like all anywhere or anything in this world is not free. And if anyone that watches this 22min video to the end, and still has that takeaway, then I'm sorry but they completely missed the point. Only a completely insane person would watch this video to the end and say "okay I'm now going to purchase a flight to Kenya and live entirely for free for the rest of my life in Mombasa". Now as a content creator, personally, I have no control of how one random viewer of 1000s interprets my content but that does not invalidate me from being able to post my experience.
Douche bag you mean.
So beautiful!!! This would never happen in the US.
I used to live in Mombasa
Mombasa people are very friendly and all places are very safee❤
I am also Canadian when I visit Mombasa I will try your challenge.
So, you think that spending 24 hours without money is almost the end of the world? You must be a very lucky and pampered man, wherever you come from. Many Kenyans live without money as the default mode, everyday.
You at least catch they faces so far we could sending something small to them
My magical kenya🇰🇪❤️
Nice video bro,are you still in Kenya?
Am a kenyan RUclipsr based in Mombasa.
Wait, what? Us? Second in the WHOLE DAMN WORLD 😭?? 😮
(VERY ASANTE SANA 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣) ..
Now I want to observe this Kenyan trait of generosity. . I'll be like, saying "hi" to anyone, then. .."feel like giving something? Anything really?.."
Flip the tables and it was an African doing the challenge in white man's country and see the cold treatment he would have received.
Definitely an interesting perspective. As a naturally optimistic person I'd like to believe there are kind humans around the world, but the cynic in me tells me there is some truth what you say. I think the best thing I can do as one individual person is put kindness first and not dwell on things I have no control over like other people's reactions.
Please don’t generalize… there are honorable people in every community.
@@p.be.s remember the africans left to sleep in the cold during co ...vid?
@@myriampierre-td2hw oh yes… all the Chinese people in China made that decision…..not the authorities. Now I remember. Thank you
The way to start a RUclips channel is by making Kenyan video
True 😂😂😂
😂😂 true
🤣🤣🤣🤣tuanze Na story ya Mackenzie 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I grew up in Mombasa and can attest to that but if this was in Nairobi you would have a different testimony
try Nairobbery
38 seconds in, you're on Beach road trying to get a ride... I saw a strong wooden door so... you just walked from Sun Africa hotel?
as a black kenyan myself am actually suprised you survived 24 hrs well i survived 15 years but move to dubai cause hell no am not getting shot dead during elections
To the Tourism Minster of Kenya: Please have the government install seats/benches on the beach and get rid of those scammers with the chairs.
I have seen so many tourists to Kenya get very upset with these chair people!! They are driving the tourists away from Kenya!!
Welcome to kenya once again
Karibu kenya 🇰🇪 hakuna matata, You’re welcome 😇, feel free at home our brother
All Kenyans are brought up with the knowledge of karma and being servant leaders
Except the politicians.
Lol. 🤣🤣
Wow its so touching
Feel welcomed bro
Being a European in Kenya coast on snd off for 12 years, I have experienced and learned that very few people there do anything for free.
Sorry, but that is my overwhelming experience.
They are master-opportunists.
Somehow true, but I guess your experience is heavily influenced by the prevailing perception that Europeans are moneyed (which is true anyway). Therefore expectation of “something “ deeply rooted in the African-European interaction. But if you got into a situation that true calls for selfishness, such tripping and hurting yourself while jogging,I don’t think people will assist with the expectation of a financial gain.
@@NYONAMATENDE unfortunately, I cannot write a novel or a guide to "survive" as a foreigner in Kenya/Africa in a comment section.
But I do have 12+ experience and tend to learn how to navigate fast.
And I am generalizing, I know, but it is not "the odd one out-generalizing".
Yes, it is very, very common perception that we grow a money tree in our backyards in Europe. That is not the case.
Most westerners save a full year or more to go on holiday. Or they live on retirement benefits ( which they worked a whole life to get). An absolute minority are wealthy widows or widowers.
And Kenyan polio victims, orphans by the thousands, poor waitresses with stomach ulcer and 4 kids at home and on shit salaries can empty whatever you have in a matter of days or weeks.
They will try to get money to point out a direction for you, having no clue, quite often, where they point.
I can go on and on.
Being a reg. Nurse I see Kenyans drop on the street for whatever reason, unable to afford even the smallest amounts of money for healthcare. I must have paid malaria treatment for strangers amounting to 6-digits shillings over the years.
I have witnessed an epileptic man down on the street and nobody did anything, just standing around looking.
I had a pre-acute myocardial infarction in a restaurant. People just passed and looked at me lying on the ground. My partner was due to meet me and that's how he found me. And he carried me by himself to a taxi.
I could go on and on. Meanwhile, I am trying to think of one time I was not expected to pay for anything.
But I will give you and the video maker .... Kenyans will smile to you - while they try to get your money. That is true.
Other than that, I quickly learned the socio-economic and traditional reasons for that (opportunist)behavior
And it's true that compared to the average Kenyan, we do have more money.
Because:
We work and we are able to get work
We have strong and free systems in place (school, healthcare, police)
We are generally very law-abiding
We have little to no corruption. And that is probably the most important thing.
So it doesn't take long to spot what is not working in Kenya.
And I wish we didn't have to point it out.
I wish that the billions my country donate in foreign aid, through our taxes, would be put to the right use. And we are just 1 country. There are many, many more countries donating through their governments to Kenya (being the second largest recipient after Tanzania). And now I am not counting the even bigger amounts that we use in Kenya as private citizens and through thousands of small and big NGOs.
@@abocas I see you decided to write a novel, anyway. The thing is, I don't know why you sound so bitter. You could easily stay in your country or ask your kind to point you in the direction of a country that has far better people than Kenyans. I believe there are more than 200 countries in the world that you could vacation in. Why Kenya? 🤣🤣
@@abocas Thanks for that response. I honestly agree with what you’re saying. I dropped out my profession because of corruption. I was fresh from graduation as a lab scientist and a certain doctor took me up to work is his lab before I sat for certification exams. The certification board, while on a routine inspection, visited our clinic and noted that I was not certified. They asked me not to undertake any lab procedures and from then my role was basically transporting specimen from the doctor to an adjacent lab. But they stormed in a few days later accompanied with police and arrested me and took me to central police station (CBD Nairobi). The doctor had to pay 20k to secure my release. What really shocked me was that the board people were still at the station at 8:00pm when I got out. So many people were arrested that day and it was broadcasted on TV (to show that the board was working). Anyway, the talk was that the board officials were still at the station to share the cash bails with police. That was 2010. I have never stepped in the lab nor sought certification since then. I was immensely disappointed. I work as a writer and do a few things online to get by. I truly get what you’re saying.
@@NYONAMATENDE it is sad story that does not surprise me at all. And it is endemic behavior in Kenya.
I can just picture how everyone "flocked to the table" to get in on the money. Seen it many times.
And I have no solution to the problem of corruption other information and information and information to the public. But those who would educate Kenyans are up to their knees in bribes and corruption. So it is not going to happen.
I wish all donors would simply cut off the aid until they see something happening. But it will affect those for whom the aid is intended. And that is not for the government.
But you not ending up where you aimed to be because of this corruption is quite sad. And it sounds as though you are struggling somewhat.
we my be a poor outside but inside we are rich unlike western are rich outside but inside are broke
Good job
😂😂😂Wacha kucheka mwambie alipe pesa ya kiti😂😂😂.

Welcome back again to kenya

Paying for a chair????😮As a kenyan am surprised😅
At the beach you have to pay for a chair you Better don't be surprised even us locals pay.He is not conned
I understand the hustle but damn! Once he got up he should have let him be.
8:50 never shake with the left hand in these cultures. That is the toilet hand.
Mombasa people not All kenya ,Nenda Nairobi afu uone kma uta hurumiwa kma MOMBASA
Interesting challenge, I always believe that one day the world will be a real global village with no myths about other people and where people of different races can live, work together and even inter-marry without being questioned or treated differently
