In 'Living in Vienna' we spotlight life as it happens in Vienna. We mainly share what's going on in Vienna during our insightful walks and/or in arranged or impromptu interviews with Viennese people. All the times, we keep our ears on the ground and our eyes in the air to bring you to the front seat of life as it is in Vienna. If it's happening in Vienna, we are catching it and sharing the moments in time with you.

I absolutely love how much pride all the working men take in their work. Being able to build homes with electrical, plumbing, gardening, raised terraces, etc - all the edible greenery and stones. Nature can be hard to work with manually and they've made it look easy and so utterly beautiful. They've crafted an oasis with their hands. Much love. I'm here for this all day!
Totally 💯🥰
Selena is a beautiful, humble, & intelligent woman and her radiant smile is Priceless! ❤️😇
💯 truth. Thanks for watching 🥰
I met Selina,she truly has a heart and for helping and transforming the community. A very sweet spirit. So sorry for your loss. Godbless
Sorry just started following vwhat her lost
Mama Zuri has such a beautiful smile, what a humble and intelligent woman! I’m sure she is an inspiration to many young girls in the Masaii community! BomaNoma is such a unique place, I’m so impressed! 🇰🇪 💗
Sorry Selina for your loss. I am sure your mom is proud of what you’ve done.
💐🥰 you are so kind. I'll pass your condolences to Selina🥰
This is absolutely beautiful! These people did made a wonderful eco-friendly community!
Africa has always been an eco friendly place. Trust me I am from the west coast of Africa.
What a beautiful place! I can see why Brian fell in love with Selina. She is a beautiful person. Best wishes to them all.
Why do people think this is so strange? Some of the happiest and healthiest people live on farms and homesteads. We, in America, don’t recognize enough of the hard work and sacrifice our rural communities put in to keep us fed. This lifestyle isn’t for everyone because of the hard work and little appreciation given yet it’s absolutely necessary for a functioning society. Shout out to everyone across the globe who sacrifice certain “comforts” for a loving and devoted family life❤️
The guys making the houses look soo kind and genuine, I love this house hold
I'll bet Brian fell in love with Selina from the first time he saw her beautiful smile. Who wouldn't?
I thought likewise
There were a lot of young African girls in slavery with beautiful smiles in slavery but none of u exactly married any of them
@@Droo444 I wasn’t alive then, and neither were you. You know nothing about me, but your remark tells us all we need to know about you.
If you had any integrity you would’ve established yourselves like China did.
Haha
Very informative. We really don't know our world. I wish these people live in peace and the wrong people don't move here to cause problems and destroy this beautiful place. The more I learn about Kenya, the more interested I get. What a diverse country.
Thanks you

África ❤️🇧🇷🙏 amor e paz pra todos
I live and work in Narok. I have been to bomanoma. Just next to an airstrip. That day, I was scheduled to overfly Mau Forest Complex, one of the biggest 'watertowers' in Kenya and took a health break at Bomanoma. Never met the owners. But I really appreciated the work they are doing!
Whoever has not travelled away from Africa is the only one who can think Africa is ugly but to we who travelled even to america we end up saying God thanks to Africa no contnent beautiful than Africa
Very true
You are very right
I had the pleasure of meeting Selina while I was in Kenya evaluating projects for regenerative farming in september, a beautiful woman and a real leader in her community and in the world wide movement to regenerative farming and sustainable living. Looking forward to visiting their project in april when we return to Kenya to establish several complimentary programs, one in Narok as well. WHat an inspiring story that gives us all hope that Africa is gaining great momentum in the permaculture movement!
Hi Robbie thanks for your comment. Parmaculture is not a new concept in Africa, it is the way people have always planted crops since time in history. What's new in Africa is the monoculture, GMO, and commercial farming.
There is so much the world can learn from Africa, but somehow the world is convinced it is Africa that should be learning.
Come to Africa prepared to unlearn and learn.
@@asilingamani hello
@@asilingamani I went to Africa to learn and I did. I am supporting Africans who are building sustainable communities through a multitude of efforts, including Permaculture and regenerative farming as well as other permaculture principals regarding community building and building economies. My nonprofit is a global school for sustainable living and we hope to have Africans teaching us in our education center in Costa Rica next year. There is a lot to learn, for all of us, globally. I hope Africa will inspire the world with their passion for change, it is what the world needs right now. I look forward to meeting you in April
Well done Robbie,your efforts will pay off some day
I really appreciate and admire you the way you work and change the environment into greenish.
I hope the community around you have a lot to learn. God be with you always
A peaceful life is better then riches
Absolutely
Well said
Praceful life is riches
As a black man from the carribbean, this really feels relatable to me now living in America. Thank you for sharing this.
Makes one want to come and do something similar right?
@@TheRootedBlueprint Yes! Your absolutely Right. Are you in Africa?
@@CaribbeanChit unfortunately all caught up in the western world and their rat race but I'm gonna escape, just need people with the same vision
I dream of having such a place, this would be paradise for me. I love the water tower 'viewing' concept .. Very functional. The soil looks quite dry and exposed and in need of woodchip mulch. Just a suggestion 😊
Zurimama radiates such inner happiness despite her grieving for her mama.
I wish there were more Zurimamas in the world.
Thanks Joe. True, she is so warm and nurturing despite her grief. May her mom continue to rest in peace 🥰
Joe Dee your dream can come true if you visualize it and do it 💪😁🌹
@@judithachieng3114 - thank you for this encouragement. I am enjoying all the visualisation because it's now seeming so tangible and doable. I am chipping away at it. I feel I am working toward it every day a millimetre at a time.
Old saying " slow gets there" 😊
This is sure a great place to reset. I'm grateful to my late fiancé for the last sweet vacation that ended up bringing us here a few months ago. I'm forever grateful for this, love lives here 💕
Hi Caroline, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. May your fiance soul rest in peace and may you be comforted and strengthened💐💐💛🧡💖💖. Sending you lots of love
I just found this family and their project or projects. It is a pleasure for sure. My family is already looking for a way to visit Bomanoma.
Nice. Make sure to visit...it's a real good experience
‘Hammock”. Ours are mainly made of netting, but they are so fun. I visited Mahali Mzuri in April 2022 and started a partnership farm called Enaramat Farms with my Maasai guide. Nothing like this, but it would be nice to visit here to learn when I return to Kenya from the U.S.
Hehe thanks. Yes, most definitely must visit when you're in Kenya
Karibu
America is a good country to live, but it has a lot of stress. Too many bills. No good life at all.
Simple living is wealth
Waaaah in the country where i live,its not like bill or stress but itsa killer..the nore the pay is gud the mo u pay plus health insurances rent,food everything is CRAZY expensive
Yes western world that's the Life majuu ni stress
It all depends on your lifestyle. You can live comfortably if you live frugal
I agree. We work 6 days just to enjoy 1 day.. seen like other country work bit they love their job and that is why they always smile
Jambo! Sista, You have blessed my heart with your video in Kenya. I was there is 08 and met who is now my Kenyan family! I love to song in your language, the sweetness of the people, and this Boma rocks! There is so much unused land near the Mara, that such a model would so benefit the people to build something sustainable. I so enjoyed meeting you, the Boma Mama and papa, the staff. I saw the most beautiful sunsets in the Mara... not as beautiful as the people but almost. Again, thank you! sawa
My condolences to you dear Selina and your family. May God strengthen and protect you and your family- May he put a smile on your face again. IJN Amen
That's so a sweet message to the family. Be blessed
I emailed with this man when planning my trip to Kenya in May 2022. Unfortunately it didn't work out for us to visit bomanoma. He is a really helpful, upbeat person and I hope when I visit Kenya again, I can go to bomanoma.
Peekul.great to hear you wish to Travel Kenya kindly your welcome just plan n purpose to visit ..
You're welcome

Beautiful homestead... Love 💕 the environment congrats to both 👏🇰🇪
I love this boma. Permaculture is definitely the way forward. Thank you for your beautiful narration. You are very gracious and I just love that. I’m looking forward to following your channel and learning more about this homestead too!Blessings ❤
Mama boma noma MUNGU ambariki hana ubaguzi kabixa ameajiri watu tofauti tofauti..ma zuri you're a blessed to community
Amina and amen🥰💯
Its so inspiring to see that even the dogs are taken care of... they are sleeping at the heat of the day
WOAW WHAT GREAT PERSONS YOU ARE!!!!! DOING SO MUCH FOR OTHERS!! REALY ADMIRABLE 🙏💝🦄🦄 I LOVE THIS!! Thank you 💝
Great 👍 video. Impressed that the American guy is fully immersed in the Kenyan culture. He spoke the language well. It was nice he fell in love with Selena and has a beautiful child ♥️♥️ plus I believe Kenya is part of my genetic ancestry
You are so right 🥰
Thank you so much. I'm amazed at how the Internet allows me to submerge myself in another part of the world. They have worked so hard but created a paradise. Good job!
This place is absolutely gorgeous! Wow, what a wonderful life they seem to have created. ❤️👏
I saw this vedio in home page and I downloaded it simply,but it was so worth downloading it .Thank-you so much for sharing about this beautiful village.personally my favorite country is 🇰🇪. All love and support from India 🇮🇳 ❤️🥰
Just came upon this Beautiful Channel and Thank you for sharing it with us , can’t wait to watch more, Selina I am so sorry to hear about your Dear Mom , I know we will all see each other again 🙏🏻💞 Your Precious Baby Girl is just so Adorable 💖
So beautiful out there. Looks like Paradise 💚🌞
Selina and baby are GORGEOUS!!! I love this woman and her family! God Bless!
What a beautiful way of life. Africa is lovely! It's time for peace in many other African countries so people can live their lives simple and peacefully. I don't like to mention but some places people live in fear. I think for those places, uttermost protection is needed that those who even think of disturbing/perpetrators can be dealt with approximately. God bless this homestead, how beautiful, where all people can live in harmony.
A peaceful life, is a RICH LIFE! Rich in love and so much more🥰
I truly enjoyed your beautiful documentary it was so educational. Thank you and God's blessing to you.
Thanks Dianne
This is so refreshing to watch my mother land Kenya 🇰🇪
I really enjoy this video. It kinda remind me of deep rural l7fe back in the days. I love their ideas. That very good. Nuff love to you all
Lots of love right back to you too🥰
Ok I saw the thumbnail and was all in. Subscribed. I have to find out about their story. I am a ADOS brother in US. I want to he home in Africa!!!
Knowledge uplifts.... one person can make a difference to many others....
Truth
Wow am proud of my friends , this place is home away from home I tell you. Love lives here
Heey Emmy, so nice to read from you. You guys are such a delight. We are hoping to feature your cafe when we return
@@asilingamani the pleasure will be mine , you are doing and incredible job
@@emmysayo822 thanks dear
Wow. Beautiful presentation nothing but joy.
Thanks George🌼🥰🌺
Hello 👋 from down Under Australia 🦘. What a beautiful place to live, I love the pink colour on the walls & I love how friends, neighbours & strangers pop inn. Their HAMMOCKS hanging up ( English )
Hey Heather, hello 🥰. It's the charm of the homestead that friends, neighbors and strangers stop by anytime. I love it so much as well. Thanks
That was a very good interview. It was a pleasure to see the other side of life across the Atlantic. I had a very good Kenyan friend from Meru. I think she was Kikuyu. We met in England. I've lost contact with her. Her last name is Buruni, and I think about her and wonder how she is doing. I'm from Barbados.
Thanks. I hope you and your friend find each other again 🥰
Hay
Your swahili is perfection 😊 karibu Kenya
Selina smiled is contagious
Lugar lindo e relaxado, contacto com a natureza adoro
Place gives out a real calming vibe. I am sure tho it's not all just kicking back to relax. It takes alot of work I am sure to keep up its beauty. I would love to see the rain come even tho it can probably be fierce at times...but i bet three is alot of folks that it would be hard to live there. People yearn for the busy side of life, folks,cars,noise and stores . For me tho THIS is paradise as i get older I want the peace and lay back vibes this place can offer..
Totally 💯🥰
Thanks for sharing. I wish I was there. I really appreciate seeing all the inovations on this homestead. Beautifully laid out and thought out.
Hello. I find your community is really wonderful. I live in Canada. I'm always interested in homesteading. You all have done very well. I will continue following your progress. ❤
All I can think is how much I would love to live here it has some of the amenities I would enjoy, but very close to nature I would love to go there and start a music thing/ cooking community, or be a digital nomad and travel Africa with this as home one of my biggest dreams ❤
It's a beautiful place to grow children.
💯 true 🌼
I am indigenous Montagnard Jarai live in America I like to live in simple life I can’t find any place here in America
I wish I had the courage to leave the big city I live in and my job.Humble people , hard workers etc... In this video I found the local people more friendly than the foreigners.
My I ask who you mean by foreigners?
Such a beautiful home. I can't wait to visit again. Thank you Brian and Selina.
hi, i’m Bonnie and I JUST SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL on today Tuesday November 29 / 2022) loved Tour Of The MAA… HOMESTEAD , found it to be a very beautiful self Sufficient off the grid way of living and the electricity that was provided by the use of solar panels that seems very interesting and very creative it was so nice to meet the beautiful people who live there or work there at the village and it was nice to meet Selena and her husband Brian and all of the other people there all seem so friendly and kind it was so nice to see their way of living off the grid and so nice to see the beautiful gardens and a beautiful property of the homestead I gave this video a thumbs up and thanks so much for sharing the stories of of the people who lived there and they went way of living in their own words very very interesting to meet such great and beautiful people.
Here's an idea. Use hempcrete for constructing self sustainable homes it's environmentally safe and will last forever .
Thank you for a very interesting movie, best regards from Warsaw.
You are most welcome, it's always nice to hear from you. Glad to know you enjoyed it
Thank you for sharing this interview/documentary it was very inspiring and helpful. Wonderful to be exact. I’d love to live like that. Well only God knows what He has planned for my future. I believe that He led me to this video so that I don’t lose my vision and hope. 😊❤
Amen 😍. Your future is secure in God🎄merry Christmas
She is beautiful and kind its great what she's doing for her village.
Truly
I love the dogs its a cool place for them to lay nice to see they being looked after the right way and a lovely couple and its great what you are growing.
Very nice couple love has no borders beautiful family all the best to you guys
whiteman makes his life better where ever he is. This young white American guy is in the process of making a good life in the middle of Massai.
Wooooow mashaAllah 🎉🎉❤❤beautiful 😍 ❤
Very nice and the language ijooo Can someone teach me Swahili? I wish here in South Africa we can learn from other African countries to use our own hands to create jobs n learn to share. Wishing you all the best 😍😍😍
Hi Motlalepuke, thanks. I've listening to a lot of South African podcast and I'm surprised how much your languages are similar to Swahili. It should be no surprise as Swahili is a Bantu Language. Would be nice of me to learn 9 languages in South Africa
I am willing to teach you Swahili..I also love SA music but I don't understand it😭😂🙂😊😊😊👏🎉🎉
Nice to see some raw footage of the place! Nice work
Thanks Max. Glad you enjoyed
Undabiliwa for being called, more like setswana in Botswana, we say ke biditswe. We used the same technique too for our huts, the difference is that it is done by women . The houses are cold in summer. Love their initiative
I'm jealous. I wonder how much it cost to buy the land and construct the well and buildings.
Hi Jens, I'll ask and answer you comprehensively on an upcoming video. Stay tuned. Thanks for watching
so blessed to have come across your channel
I'm happy to hear that 🥰🥰🥰
Enem, me to. This is quite interesting
Beautifully inspiring, I am wowed
You are so right. Glad you enjoyed the episode
Its so beautiful and wonderful to watch your lovely couple.
God bless you. New subcriber from🇮🇳❤🇰🇷😊👍
Very inspiring,I give glory and honour to Almighty God.May He bless you abundantly so that, that becomes a cornerstone of change in the whole of Narok County.
Aaaamen
So beautiful place made beautiful by beautiful people, Thank you for sharing you Community🫶🏻🙋🏻♂️
Wow, she should become an Ambassador to......good work.
The flags you didn't understand are Colombia, India, Austrialia, Ireland, Turkey, Netherlands, and Spain.
Thanks Jacquéline🥰
Im normally not impressed with any American who would want to live that tough type of life in Africa which is the way that I see it but I am about to say I am sorry for my past negative comments. Their houses and surroundings are actually beautiful. I am impressed.
Hi Diana, a tough type of life is only in a place where there is absence of love. There's no place on earth where there can exist an absence of love other than inside the human heart. So, I'm really glad to hear that this video is touching (with love) the hearts of those that see it.
@@asilingamani beautifully said my friend.
@@asilingamani Please do they have a UA-cam channel? I will appreciate if you can tell me their UA-cam channel
They have an existing channel called Bomanoma and Selina is already working on creating more own content on their day today life.
The thing about them is they're living their ordinary life which is fascinating all of us and we are asking them to share it with us
@@asilingamani Thanks for replying
Hello. I living 16 years continue in kenya, laikipia east near mt kenya. That's the best area in kenya with the best cleanest water for drink, the freshest fruity and vegetable and the healthiest animals for meat.
But for ur info.....even if u live longer than 6 months in kenya u need a workpermitvisa.....cost 200 000 per year.
Thanks Gabi for sharing your insights. Is thant Nanyuki area or Meru where you are at?
Changing lives, one guest at a time
Amaizing stuff
Absolutely. Thanks for watching 🌼💐
this is so significant, because, unlike previous imperial interference, the locals are able to learn new techniques and incorporate them as they see fit... most important is that they can improvise their local traditions, like how they build, with new ideas that may benefit the community, without destroying any of the indiginous ways and wisdoms... this is TRUE and ETHICAL progress in preparation for the changes climate will bring
These techniques are not new to Africa -- neither the building with earth, nor the permaculture farming.
Absolutely, these are indigenous African techniques. African Grandma technology and science passed down thousands of generations
Their humbleness means alot
New sub here, I feel so blessed to have come across your channel, have a lot to learn from this marvellous sustainable way of living…
Hey hi Jaqueline, so nice to have you here. More videos are coming about this beautiful homestead. It's such a wonderful vibe to stay with them. Thanks for watching 🌼💐🥰
Beautifully produced👍
