HI! My name is Rickeyta, but most people either call me Ricki or Keke. I relocated from Clarksville, Tennessee all the way to The Gambia, West Africa back in 2016 with my family & we've been living here ever since. I was only 15 when we made the move, and of course, as you can imagine.. there was ALOT of culture shock I had to overcome when i arrived here as a young teenager. I made this channel to document my journey living in West Africa, as it is definitely a wild journey I felt NEEDS to be documented! Subscribe & join me as I embark on this eye-opening experience living in the beloved motherland as an African American.

When are you planning to renounce your US citizenship? I think it’s HIGH TIME you got off that fence and THAT should be the next video you inform your viewers about. Enough of the BS. When comes THAT renunciation?

I don't know how the income tax system is in the Gambia, but if you set up your Social media manager activities as a small business, then you can write off the phone or camera you want as expenses against the income you receive for your services
Get the cats some Catnip... It will keep her chill
Gopro camera also good for camera and vlogs. Many influencers use it
