I very much resonate with what you shared about missing out on milestones and friends and family back home. Life is going on everywhere and especially those tough moments where there is death and you can't just up and leave to travel are hard moments. That is exactly how I felt when I moved from Kenya my motherland to here in the US. Been here 15 years going on 16. I missed the funerals of 3 of my mom's siblings. (my uncles and my aunts both from my dad's and my mom's side). So it is tough. I have missed my relatives' weddings like cousins and nieces and nephews. I agree with you that some of those things you can't plan for because they just happen. You can't also prepare for them. When I moved to the States I never even thought about those types of things until they happened and I couldn't go, and it hurts. But you keep living and maybe what I can say to you is just know that your decision to move out of your home country was not a mistake. I believe it was an assignment for however long God will want you to continue doing your assignment around the world and especially in parts of Africa. For now, it is Kenya. Maybe God will want you to stay right where you are in Kenya whether in Nairobi or other places, and maybe not. Just go with God's flow because he does not make mistakes. So I take it the same way. I am on assignment right here in the States and once it is over, who knows, maybe God will direct me to go back home to Kenya. I don't know. Was it his perfect will for me to be here in USA? I don't know. Still trying to figure that out as he gives me breath each day. But I am here and I will continue to do everything I can to make it worth living here as a citizen. So keep living my sister Mrs. Muhammad and my brother Mr. Muhammad. God bless you as you continue to enjoy the space you are in now. Thanks for sharing. That was powerful.
Sometimes going home offers a limited experience because you want to be on vacation but you may find yourself spending quite some time going from place to place to visit all the resting places of all the funerals that you missed. It is also strange when you don't really know the family that was young when you left, or born after you left, but are now fully grown and you don't really know them.
Thank you for sharing. Somehow this takes me back to how our ancestors felt when they were torn from families to a long and painful journey to slavery and how their families coped with the absence, We are coming full circle.
Thank you for this intimate conversation. I must talk with my adult children to discuss when I leave the U.S. how will they/we cope when life happens and we are not in the company of each other. Things we need to consider. Thanks again.
You touched on some great topics and I can definitely relate and feel some of the resentment you noted but we have to remain focused and push through as best we can💞
Thank you for sharing what your saying resonate with me l have a grown son and l feel that l abandoned him trying to work this is very hard l pray that TMH helps me to deal with these feelings thank you again
I relate to your issues regarding this. I want to move to Africa with my grandson who I adopted. One of my sisters plans on moving with her 3 sons. However, emotionally it is difficult because it means leaving behind my adult children, another grandson, and other family. They aren’t interested in visiting or moving but this escalating racism is a major concern for me. I am praying that The Most High lets me know which direction to go.
Sometimes you have to think about your happiness...life is short...it won't be easy but think about your grandson...you don't want him going through this nonsense that's going on here in America...hopefully this helps you to decide what's right...don't waste time...tomorrow isn't promise!!!
Thank you for sharing this I can truly relate. Me and my family relocated to Texas and I find myself missing some family members too. Also there was some resentment when we moved as well because they knew there would be a times we can't get to one another and there was some resentment of other family members that wanted to see us fail because of the move. This was the best move we made but yes I do feel all of what you expressed.
Wow, thank you both so much for your honest transparency! REAL TALK!!! As I approach my fifth year living on the continent, I too have experienced some of the same feelings and situations. You guys are truly a blessing for future expats who will need this information and insight! Once again, great video and continued success and blessings on your journey!!!
Thank you family for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us. You are such a blessing. Sharing your experience gives us something to think about. We appreciate you being transparent and honest with us. Remain blessed.
Greetings Residential Tourists, Queen tourist, what a situation you have described herein. You know, my father taught me to always have nine to ten months base pay set aside for any emergencies. With all your businesses and side hustles, surely you both will do likewise in case of emergencies like you have described. Financial planning and literacy is an essential part of life no matter where everyone might find themselves , right? Africa is our original home despite being referred to as foreigners or European clones. As such you both have made an excellent move to reconnect to our motherland and African culture. You both are leaps and bounds ahead of most people living in the diaspora. Thanks so much for sharing your intimate lifestyle.
I have older sisters in their 70s that practically raised me and have always been there for me in emergencies. Just thinking of them needing me there, and I can't get to them is a big one for me. I only live a one hour plane ride away now; being 16-18 hours, and thousands of $$ away...this is something I wrestle with. Thank you for allowing us into your space of intimate reflection. Many UA-camrs don't talk about this, and I am grateful for ya'll. 🙏🏾

I feel you family this discussion you have been throwing around went into me to look into my tumour and my life journey to forgive my past and move to the new brigded future and leave the london bridge fall.
I'm wondering, have you all thought about, spending a few months out of the year, in the states. Maybe 3 to 4 months. You visit family and friends as much as you can. Then go back home. I myself, I am in a hibernation period of my life, this alone time, is truly conditioning me, for when I leave, although I will be doing a 6 and 6. Until I'm ready to rest. My plans! Which may be different than God plans.
Dont ever doubt your inspiration thats upon those of us who are working to get out the west. The global parasite lives off of us as its host and its not going to change until we remove ourselves..all of our children deserve a better option ,but as you embrace your original native land,our motherland..let friends and families be aware of the words of the most profound master of words .. Stevie Wonders and his song. "AS"..
hi guys, how are you doing? I am curious, are you guys going to show us your restaurant and your Airbnb? you didn't show us none of your businesess last year! made me wonder if they are still operational?!

Looking great 👍
Absolutely. My wife's family is gonna wanna take me out soon as they find out we're leaving.
Run😂
As real as it gets.
Hey RT fam
Find out about president Arap Moi blueprint to encourage black American investors in Kenya
The entire thing is hard and a waste of time, Doomed for failure, they will regret this mistake
Crazy that family/grown-folks think they can dictate your life 😂😂
Yup
hi guys, how are you doing? I am curious, are you guys going to show us your restaurant and your Airbnb? you didn't show us none of your businesess last year! made me wonder if they are still operational?!
We’ve discussed this in previous videos. We moved to Kenya and no longer have the business in Rwanda
Have you guys thought about moving closer like to Panama?
Thought about it
What is life without family, what is your purpose in Africa? because the world is in a mess aren't you watching
Then thank God we have each other, our mother and girls. A beautiful family 😊🙏🏾.
