Don't waste your time "Saving up money for Gambia"...that's not a solid plan.
Переглядів 7 тис.Місяць тому
Here in the US it took me 10 minutes to upload this UA-cam video. When I'm in Gambia it can sometimes take 48 hours to get my videos into the UA-cam platform. That's how different things will be with doing business online on the continent. I cringe when I hear people say they're just waiting to move to start up their businesses (especially online!). I'm just saying take advantage of the resourc...
America: A life update

My regular content is recorded in Gambia, but I'm currently traveling and in the US. It’s a tough call about whether I should take a break from creating content (until I return) or continue uploading... I can't say for sure at this time when I'll be arriving back to The Gambia. However, I'm extremely grateful for those who continue to support the channel during our travels! 💕🌍

I've been so overwhelmed because it feels as if no matter how hard I try to stay out of the USA, I keep being forced to come back here. This is our 3rd trip back for medical and we're here for longer than planned. The whole trip actually wasn't planned at all🤦🏾‍♀️... However; we always have something to be grateful for and I'm so happy to have spent Eid ul Adha with the ones we shared it with❤️...

Why Gambia sits well with Muslim Americans...
Переглядів 9 тис.3 місяці тому
There are several differences between African cultural practices and practicing Islam according to the sunnah. You'll notice this shortly after arriving to Gambia; however, there are general things I'd say most Muslim Americans appreciate about Gambia.

let's have a cozy convo about moving to Gambia...
Переглядів 2,6 тис.3 місяці тому
Gambia has a straight forward Visa process. You can’t just get off of the plane and live in the country for free. You must pay to get your passport stamped every 30 days until you qualify for residency. Then your residency fees have to be paid to get a permit card. I touched on this process during this video. I hope you enjoy our heart to heart convo about Gambia! Thank you for watching 💕 〰️〰️〰...

      @@summersinafrica I do appreciate the video and the amount of time you gave, it was Alhamdulillah just fine. Sometimes we ask for to much and it's not necessary when we get less than we ask for and it satisfies we learn from that. I felt when I saw the video you had replied to my request and it made my heart swell. I do so look forward to your videos and repeat watch some,and that is also Islam..if you put out everyday you become a norm, if you put out too little you are forgotten but if you put out only what you are able, not neglecting your home and responsibilities then you are missed. That's Baraka
