- In today's video, I share my shocking experience of my first visit and business trip to Nairobi, one of the most influential regional and economic hubs on the African continent.
This video is particularly interesting for people who believe that Africa is still far behind Europe or America in terms of technology and also for those who consider to start an Ecommerce business on the continent, but don't know where to start- NAIROBI IS THE PLACE TO BE!
Enjoy!

Nairobi holds a special place in my heart, as it was a haven of refuge during the turbulent times of the early '90s. Fleeing the Ethiopian civil war at just 16, I found solace in Kenya, and the people of this incredible city welcomed me with open arms. The warmth and kindness of the Kenyan people were truly remarkable.
I'll never forget a particular day when I was traveling from Thika to Nairobi. Struggling to gather the fare for the bus ride, an old man noticed my predicament and paid for my journey. His selfless act of kindness touched my soul deeply - he was like an angel sent by Kenya itself. This memory serves as a beautiful reminder of the humanity and compassion that exists within the hearts of the people of Nairobi.
Thank you, Nairobi, for being a safe haven during a time of adversity. Your generosity and open-heartedness will forever be etched in my memory. 🇰🇪❤
This is so beautiful, thanks for sharing ❤️
We call this Ubuntu , utu or ubinadam,... long live the old man.
@@martinekanji8537 "A person is a person through other people"
Yes, long live the old man!
Ubuntu is a valuable philosophy that can help us to live more harmonious and fulfilling lives. It reminds us that we are all connected and that we have a responsibility to care for each other.

I’m white and I visited Kenya and Africa for that matter for the first time this year and fell in love with the people! They’re wonderful and humble which is so refreshing coming from Australia and Europe 🙌🏽
You are welcome again to our country 🙏
Hi
Thanks for the positive attributes about my country Kenya. Welcome. I will teach how to cook and enjoy our meals. I am a graphic designer with a background in Public Relations from London Chamber of Commerce and Industry(LCCI)
I had a very bad experience with white people in North America, I’ll give the same energy once I go back to Africa.
karibu nyumbani 🙏

Kenyans are damn crazy in innovations and forward thinking, politics is the only thing holding the country back. Big up my people. Tuzidi kujenga Taifa!
I agree with you, we need to wake up and stop this day to day politics, if someone loses an election we should come together to make our country better.
Actually, the reason why we got the 2010 constitution is because of leaders who pushed us to be better.
The current electoral challenge is to get to a place where we have elections as a proper sovereign state. We need to be in a position to manage servers and quickly access and verify results whenever there are disputes. We have made a lot of progress and this is because of Kenyans who have constantly pushed us to be better.
@@mwaurawawainaina9220Didn't take long for an ignorant comment like yours. Disputes and dispute resolution are part and parcel of a democratic society. Your name betrays you and the dig that you made in your comment. Bure!
@@tomnethan757 excuse me Mr Tom you are exposing your ignorance. Truth hurts, unlike the western media, i live in this reality. and i cant bury my head in the sand . Reality is Politics is our achilles heel.
@@tomnethan757How old are you kid ?
UPDATE: I was informed by many that they accept mpesa on the express highway now! It was only a matter of time anyway. Nairobi-Kenya is unstoppable! Twende zetu 💪🏾
That's great and I hope that's really correct as i travelled the ExpWay just 2 weeks ago and it was still cash only!
hahaha..twende mbele ...😊
I am a Kenyan who has been to Ethiopia, Zambia, Somalia, South Sudan and have close interactions with Nigerians and Ghanaians. Thank you for bringing out some of our competitive advantages as a destination for foreigners. I confirm that we are doing well in Technology, welcoming citizenry, well educated population, very hard working people. To be fair, we are struggling with corruption at different levels and everyone particularly foreigners should always do their research and due diligence well to avoid losing their hard earned cash to scammers and corrupt individuals while investing. Our security system are relatively robust but always keep watchful about your safety i.e. do not be careless with your valuables. Welcome to Nairobi and Africa as we change the old and heavily negative narrative.
I would not be careless with my valuables anywhere even here in Toronto .Don’t always have to shape Nairobi as a place where thief’s are lurking in the corner to steal that’s wrong
@CanadianLove
Nairobi's a major league.. NO comparison at All with T.O.
@@Canadianlove Fair enough. your comments are valid and given that we are adults we can handle every experience, positive or otherwise, then I welcome all to Nairobi without any doubt you will enjoy the visit and stay. My comments on having to be worried about scammers and pick=pockets are hereby withdrawn.
Corruption is everywhere my brother. We just need to better our graft and fight our vices
NewYork ,London ,Arusha ,Kampala ,Addis Ababa all have thief’s everywhere that’s how cities are.Not only Nairobi but we Kenyans paint Nairobi as this horrible den of thief’s my dear even downtown Toronto has thief’s it’s normal.Not only Nairobi
You're in for a shock Weyni. Kenyans will support your content like you never expected. Partly the result of good internet and fair perspective from a newcomer to the country.

I am a proud Kenyan. Thank you for showcasing our country and city in such a positive way.
I am a Kenyan and I am obsessed with Kenya. Please note the absence of winter and the presence of calm winds throughout the year, especially around Mt. Kenya.
@@M45N Until you get to Mwea / Kutus area.
This was exactly my experience with Kenya-Nairobi. The buzz! Wow. I visited the National Park too. I was blown away. MPESA was great. Do you know you can transfer money to anyone in the east african region, but wait for this.. Bangladesh, Pakistan, Malawi etc as well! Incredible. West Africa is totally divided and asleep. And yes, i could withdraw $ at the ATM. I kid you not! The kenyans are flying. My Nigeria needs a lot of waking up to do. I was shamed
ningeria & ghana need to stop sleeping oh
@zazaland Naija are noise makers no action.
Nigerians enjoy Kenya until they taste our pepper-less food😂😂😂😂😂😂
MPesa was the world's first mobile money transfer.
Can people from the US use MPESA in Kenya?
Africa is natural beauty
Love Africa from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
We have to stop slavery from the West and Europe
African Nations are developing faster
The continent is full of natural resources
I wish wll African country will be developed and emerging developing by 2050
I’m just trying to back to Eritrea, but seeing Kenya getting BETTER and BETTER puts a smile on my face and inspires me and many others… Kenya is cool, and W glaze
Eritrians are very good people, i work with them here in U.K, very hard working guys
🇿🇦💓You're such a good narrator and now I understand Nairobi/Kenya better ❤❤❤from South Africa
Thank you, I'm glad it helped.
As Kenyan we love our visitors and guests. We might have differences at home.but we keep it for ourselves. Our visitors are our first priorities.

I am from the Caribbean and have been to three Countries in Africa. Kenya was always the top of my list due to it`s History and the work of Jomo Kenyatta. I still recalled the day he passed...I was in Jr. High School when it was announced. However, I also had two teachers from Kenya who taught us Swahili and were very good for us. My time in Angola, due to work, it was a great feeling and a belonging to a great culture similar to the Caribbean. Felt at home...Welcome Home was my daily acknowledgement.
Welcome brother 🇰🇪
It’s important to note that Kenya 🇰🇪 is open to anybody who’s coming to invest, do business, explore the country as a tourist or study in our universities! Otherwise, we have no space for illegal immigrants who come here to idle around or do shady activities! Thanks for your informative video 👍 Love Ethiopia 🇪🇹 from Kenya 🇰🇪
Word 💯
Very correct
I'm Ethiopian if I can get a really good tech job opening in kenya I'm willing to move there
Africa is full of opportunities, organic food, beautiful houses, etc. Africans in diaspora must pay pilgrimage to their motherland. There is so much to be proud of!!! I was asked in Chicago by someone who wondered how I knew how to use a laptop!!! I am a Masters holder planning to start my Ph.D., but I was asked this question!!!! My response was, "I actually don't know computer. I even came naked and got what iam dressed in from Chicago"!!!!
Loool, imagine!
Wauw, the disrespect🥲. Unbelievable. Great respons you gave!
Their ignorance and lack of education is quite stunning!
A nice reply
Lol! Heheh! Hilo jiwe lilimgonga vizuri.
I bet.
Nairobi is beautiful. Kenyans love nature and are very passionate about their green spaces and wildlife. It was fought for and came with a lot of sacrifice from great people like Prof. Wangarî Mathai. We have a National park in the city and parks like Karura, Ngong Hills, The Arboretum and Oloolua just a few minutes from the city center.
No country beats Kenya if only the government helps the poor so we could minimize uchokora/ wizi. Kenya in my heart ❤️🥊💯🎩🫵🏽
Sure
I come from Kenya and have a university degree. I run an M-pesa agency and what I get from M-pesa business alone I can't even think that I'm going to look for any kind of formal employment. I have freedom, I'm growing economically and I'm getting what many employers can't offer.
How did you start
I am from the US. Thank you for this wonderful info. What is M-Pesa?
All Africans are welcome to visit Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
@@M45N Of course not. I do not blame. We do not want Africans in our countries. This woman is a mixed breed
@@M45N The problem is up to now it was mostly Europeans, Indians and Chinese who were moving to Kenya to invest or retire. Kenyans have been trying to encourage Africans to do so with incentives such as removing visa requirements and softening residency laws because, frankly, we would prefer our fellow Africans. Far less problematic.
@@M45N What you mean is you would never say it "publicly". I moved to Europe for university and saw first hand how abominably Africans are treated all over Europe. Even, I a student who had no intention of immigrating felt some of that discrimination. Only the UK makes a decent effort but even they are not perfect. For the most part, Black people are relegated to the fringes of society.There's nothing wrong in saying we welcome, and would love for Africans to move to Kenya in larger numbers. Although the Kenyan presence in Europe is relatively tiny, I've seen how immigrants from West Africa, North Africa and the Horn of Africa are treated there and it's not good. What's wrong with showing them they have a place where they're welcome in their own continent? But I did not once say that non-Africans are not welcome. I just said we would love more Africans to come.
@@M45N Not once have I said I speak on behalf of all Africans. But will confidently speak on behalf of Kenyans because I'm Kenyan. It's very easy to find a Kenyan who's never travelled who thinks life abroad is better because of the overwhelming propaganda from Western media outlets. What I guarantee you will not find, is Kenyans dying in the Sahara or drowning in the Mediterranean trying to cross to Europe. We're not that desperate. As for Kenyans who've had the opportunity to travel or live abroad, I can tell you the vast majority of us prefer our beautiful country because we know the truth and have experienced first hand that the media is feeding us a lie. I had a small network of Kenyan students when I was studying in France, I'll have you know that all but two of us have happily returned home. One stayed because she married a Frenchman and the other got employed by an IT startup in Estonia, but he's still using his earnings to build his Kenyan dream house. So, respectfully, please don't speak for us and say we all want to move to Europe. That is patently false.
@@M45N I'm slightly amused by your stereotypical German arrogance (ironically, my parents next door neighbours in Nakuru are German 😂) as you purport to know more than an actual Kenyan what the majority of Kenyans think. Of course you'll find some who've emigrated and are happy. But 👏🏾they 👏🏾are 👏🏾not 👏🏾the 👏🏾majority 👏🏾. Speaking of which, do think there are more Kenyans in Germany or Germans in Kenya? Consider there is a large German school in Nairobi whereas even Kenyan restaurants or shops are extremely rare in Germany. 🤔 Interestingly, the Ethiopian lady who posted this video has chosen Kenya over Germany where she's had permanent residency. Do you want to ask her why she prefers Kenya?
I can't even describe the feeling I had in Nairobi, I feel like there's something special that connect me with that beautiful land.
I was there for a short time, but can't wait to return as soon as possible for a longer stay.
👌👌 Way to go Africa! Algeria, Morocco, Burundi, the change we want is here with us now. Let's keep this positive vibe going. Africa is our business
I loved kenya since the early 90s when i lived in Nairobi. Such a wonderful City
Thanks for showing the world how beautiful Africa is and specifically Nairobi. Good job!
Bodaboda is a slang word for "Border to Border" ...it first started in western Kenya where people used bicycles to transport people and goods from western Kenya to the border of Uganda in the 80s 90s then it later came to using motorbikes
Karibu Kenya, Weyni: You are quite on point, kenya has made a huge stride to modernise and yet not westernised. Happy that you have found kenya to be your new home. Yes the express way need to adopt to mpesa. I think they are considering this. I think this will be easier if mpesa can impliment contact less technology to speed up the queue. Besides national park and reserve, the forest, mpesa and fintech, kenya has also clean and fresh air, good weather and this mostly attractive to the Whites. Most Kenyans if not all friendly be use they are used to foreigners and many times you may hear them ask where are you from. This is because they have interacted with many people from different countries. The government may not be perfect but they have tried on infrastructures and adoption of technology. Hey you said that even beggars use mpesa, you are not wrong, just yesterday I watched young boys in Mombasa begging tourist for money for food and they said "you can send money via mpesa". It just shows how kenyan feel comfortable and safe with mpesa. Kenya is for all who find it a safe bode. In kenya there is no racist, atleast for the majority. My school in Nairobi used to opposite Nairobi national park and in the evening I used to hear lions roaring. There was a time that there were lions roaming along Mombasa road and everybody was safe. One day you may see masai cows crossing the road. Welcome to kenya with your children and mum. From the UK.
Asante sana for your warm words. Mama and the kids can't wait!
British born child but my family background is Kenyan so this is lovely to hear from another person. ❤️ and I visit kenya as much as I can it’s my second home to London 😍😍😍

I'm very impressed that someone has such a nice feeling about my home city of Nairobi. I'm one Kenyan who enjoys the ambience of Karura forest twice a week. I acknowledge the heavy presence of international visitors there.
I'm happy with the amazing attraction this video about Africa and specifically Kenya is gaining.
Hello from South Africa. I loved this episode very much. Ethiopia has always been my dream destination and you have just added another.Even the comments section is full of life and positive talk.Subscribed!
First time subscriber from the US by way of Zim. Awesome content. The penetration rate of 96% for mobile money is super impressive. We have a lot of great business models in Africa, the challenge and opportunity I see is how do we accelerate capital formation so these businesses can serve as template in neighboring countries. There is no reason an African country or company should seek foreign expertise to do what is already being done by other Africans on the continent. Africa is rising. We shall overcome like MLK said.
Zim citizens abroad have self-help groups and do buy properties in SA. We should scale up big time and eradicate poverty.
Thanks for letting world know our town ❤❤❤ Nairobi to the world 🎉❤
Nairobi is a city not a town.😮
@bellaolum9768
Big deal huh..
@@user-hr2hw9fc9q yup
White people have been visiting and immigrating to Africa for a long, long time. However, they treated black americans, afro europeans and afro latinos like 2nd class citizens but programmed them to hate & despise africans & everything african to make them believe they were in a better situation.
But they've now seen the Liiiiiight!
Am Kenyan and I have enjoyed hearing about my country from you, a well cultured and traveled individual. Am glad we are doing well.
I grow up in the nederlands you right they never show us a positive stuff never refugee crime viruses is the only thing they showed us I was in Nairobi and I m from Somalia originally Kenya is the best of the best not just African nation it is beautiful country we going next year again to eastleigh
I am currently in the Netherlands and I totally agree. Also I have never seen such a successful, business minded and thriving somalish community like the one in Nairobi. They literally rule the import export logistic and are trustworthy business partners. Love to all Somalis here 💙
The best? No😂 Top 10 in Africa sure.

Most definitely 🖤
You forgot to mention the other tourist attraction spots from beaches, mountains, restuarants, hiking , lakes, rivers, White water rafting, you name it Kenya has everything
I guess it's because she was focusing on Nairobi. But yea those other attractions are not too far.
This is an amazing summary of the Nairobi Business Environment...congratulations on the Residence and Permit you got issued

Thank you. Mama Africa is calling! 🖤
As a multi racial (white presenting) American woman, I found Nairobi and Kenya in general to be very welcoming, and exactly the kind of place I wanted to be! I moved there in 2009, and loved it! It’s multicultural multiracial, the pace of life and priorities of kindness, community, and the high quality of lifestyle that’s available was everything I wanted. The west doesn’t properly convey how modern Kenya (and Africa in general) are. There’s a thriving arts scene, great infrastructure, food from around the world at decent prices and high quality (like you would find in a modern western country, but with all the flair of Nairobi! I want to encourage ALL people to visit and see for themselves how beautiful it is and how modern it is! Don’t just listen to what mainstream media and western misinformation tells us!
❤
Fantastic presentation that cut through a lot of the confusions, very helpful and I am so glad you made it there.
Great content Madam Habesha. Thank you for the complimets for the many things we take for granted.
A very proud Kenyan ♥️🇰🇪
Thank you for visiting our beautiful country and Welcome back!
Kenya is beautifully, beautiful 🙏
I honestly like the contents of your vlog. As a Kenyan married to an Ethiopian and living in London, we always get surprised whenever we visit both Nairobi and Addis Ababa by the developments both cities have achieved within the last 20 years. We are building in Kaliti hoping to rent out. That said, rental and property management in Nairobi is on another level. An estate agent in Nairobi will very professionally manage your property for you, collect the rent, source for new tenants and send you monthly rental income statements without fail. Of course Kenya being a free economy country we draw our rental income when we need it through online banking to our UK bank with no questions asked. Kenya is truly haven. The other magic that will shock you about Kenya is what are known as financial SACCOs. These are financial help groups that have been formed by members of the public where they save up and borrow 3 times the amount saved with the interest rates for repayment being mostly between 1-2%. These SACCOs fund businesses as well, can also be used to buy a home, pay school fees etc. I advise you to do your research on this and vlog about it coz it will amaze you the way Mpesa has amazed you. CHAMS Media has made a number of documentaries on different SACCOs. Now even the Kenyan diaspora abroad have started forming their own SACCOs and building apartments for sale in Nairobi. Even the UN workers in Nairobi have their own SACCO attracting hundreds of other UN workers worldwide. Dr. Abiy is also doing marvellous things in Addis not to mention that Addis has the first electric trams in Sub Sahara Africa. Ethiopia is a beautiful and amazing country unique in its own spectacular way.
Wow, thanks for the info. I will definitely research this and will also soon speak more about real estate and airbnb business in particular. Hope that will help you guys with your project in Kaliti. Keep it up!
CHAMS media! Does he report on Jigger Victims?
I live in USA and I am so so inspired by this information.
May Our Lord and Our God keep elevating Kenya and the entire Africa we pray.Yes Lord.Amen
KWENI SACCOS are not in all parts of the world?
You are doing a fantastic job representing Africa to the world.
Thank you
That was a very inspiring video. Thank you for sharing 👍🏾
Looking forward to my trip to Kenya this year. This video has me even more excited.
That's a very positive review of Nairobi and Kenya .. Nairobi is super green, Serena and also diverse in terms of business,tech and residential areas
Kenya is the place to be. Modern western conveniences, outstanding natural beauty, wildlife, and beaches, friendly people, low cost of living if you're paid in USD, mild highland climate, etc
I'm really blessed and likewise too for the articulate episode here in that is so educating about not only Africa but Kenya to be specific.
Your points elaborated are so clear.Hoping to here and see more of your episodes.Thank you so much.
I have never seen an honest, accurate and lovely pitch of My Nairobi like this before. God bless your work. Unfortunately you are more beautiful than Nairobi.

Amazing introduction of Kenya. Great job Weyni!

I used think Europe was better, after my 1st degree in Europe, i realized that relocating back to Nairobi was still the best option. I am your permanent subscriber now
@@M45N Not the OP, but me I've only visited Switzerland, Austria,Spain, Germany, the UK, Sweden and Belgium. I've lived in France and Italy and moved back to Nairobi a couple of years ago. Kenya over Europe any day of the week. Sorry to say this, but Europe has plateaued and isn't getting better. Kenya is improving.
@@M45N I'm Kenyan not European. I'm telling you my quality of life in Kenya is much, much better than when I was living in Europe. I too moved to Europe thinking it would be better but it was a lie.I did not like it for a variety of reasons. I'm also telling you that I do NOT want to live in Europe ever again. Please proceed and tell me what I actually believe in my mind since you know better. Please explain the same to the many Europeans who've chosen to retire in Lamu, Watamu and Diani over their own countries.
@@M45N Again, the millions of African migrants in Europe are none of my concern because they're not Kenyan. I know you have plenty of Nigerians, Somalis, Moroccans, Senegalese, Ethiopians and Algerians, Sudanese, Ghanaians etc but very, very few Kenyans, because we love our country just fine. You say Diani isn't the same as it was 20 years ago, but I could say the exact same thing about Paris, Venice, the Costa del Sol, Capri or anywhere else, for that matter. They were all better, different places 20 years ago. So? Analytics show property prices in Kenya are high mainly because of international buyers, especially from Europe. You can't deny that fact. I too would love to afford those overpriced villas at the coast. Maybe if I wait a couple of years, the market will dry up and hopefully the European prices will come down to more acceptable prices for Kenyans. I find it a little disturbing that you've taken umbrage to the fact that I, a Kenyan, dared to say that we would prefer more Africans (and the Black Diaspora) to come to Kenya. What is wrong with what I said? Is it the fact that I'm not displaying the same reactionary xenophobia Europe shows these same Africans?
BTW, I realise I don't know who I'm having this discussion with. What part of Europe are you from? And what's your interest in Kenya if you hate it so much?
@@M45N Are you in the habit of dodging questions with your own? Okay, I'll bite, just to show good faith: 1) Where do I start? Europeans like to paint Africa as lawless and crime-ridden, but I myself had never encountered crime directly growing up in Kenya until my first night in Europe where I was robbed for the first time in my life when they stole my whole suitcase with everything I had at the Gare du Nord in Paris. As bitter as I was, I didn't hold it against the French because Paris is a big, busy city and crime is to be expected. However, over the years, I experienced first-hand what it's like to be black in Europe ranging from minor hostility and micro aggressions to blatant xenophobia and overt racism. These could be from strangers on the train, to waiters and shopkeepers, to landlords and even civil servants. The problem seemed to be assumptions based on my accent and colour of my skin. I gathered that people would infer that I was a refugee or illegal migrant even though I wasn't. I noticed my white American colleagues, for example, never had the same problem. I was oblivious to the microagressions at first, but a black American friend tuned me to the fact and taught me to notice the ones that were going over my head. I should add that I met many kind, friendly and open-minded people as well, but the bad experiences are hard to ignore. 2). You've explicitly implied to another poster that Kenyans are a corrupt, thieving, untrustworthy, deceitful, unwelcoming people once you settle here, and that lady who posted the video would see a different side once she starts living here, do you deny you that? Did I answer your questions? Now will you answer the specific questions I asked?
@@M45N When I say they're "not my concern", I mean not my responsibility and I can't speak for them. But I'll not be shy to speak for other Kenyans like me, even though we're not a monolith.
Thanks for reminding Kenyans how beautiful and convenient Nairobi is ❤
Wow thanks for this very informative and inspiring ✨💫🌠🤝
Wow sister ❤ first of all I love the way u narrating and I couldn't wait until the comparison history between the two east African cities 😊 well done bravo and carry on please
The squirrel and the kid doing math memes were so good. I laughed out loud. Great video. I am interviewing someone for a remote software engineer role who is based in Nairobi and wanted to check out the city. Thanks for making this video.
I hope he was hired. I'm a software developer too and I know how competitive it is. We are putting in the work to compete effectively.
As Kenyan living in Kenya leave this African American's coming to Africa alone, they don't know our african journey ,we don't even know their life's journey .They are not Africans, they are black and American and why are they interested in Africa all over sudden!!I met some a long time ago, who din't want anything to do with africa ,why now???When a deal is too good think twice.If they didnt make it in America where they were born! how will they make it here??We have many Africans including Kenyans who went to America became very successful and made lots of cash and came back home
100% correct. Black Americans are some lame people. It's only the successful ones who should seek to invest here, but not those who cannot even make it in a land of opportunity like America. Africa is not giving charity to troublesome and unstable people. I think we should only allow African Diaspora, NOT Black Americans.
Hatred is a spirit of darkness don't allow it control you, walk in love
They are looking for peace and love❤❤
Very insightful...and Karibu Kenya

Mpesa is a Kenyan innovation and invention that the world is now embracing.
So much that Africans can learn from Kenya!
Your content is so refreshing to see. The calm narration and natural setting in the background does magic. Karibu Nairobi and try eating Ugali Mayai.
I appreciate your honest appraisail of Nairobi Kenya. It is on my bucketlist of places to visit. I saw your other video comparing Addis to Nairobi and it piqued my interest. Addis is near and dear to my heart. I love Addis the people and the food but have not returned since the conflict. I want to remember Ethiopia as it was before the conflict. Thank you again. 🙏
I am a kenyan and I can't wait to go to Ethiopia or Eritrea for business in agriculture. And IT
Thank you and welcome to Nairobi
Asante
