Very insightful and eye-opening. As one of those “diaspora” you spoke of, it takes courage to come back but I believe it all works out well when as you said you “sort out the right problem”. Keep the faith; you’re doing well
Be the one to create your own social community. You’re new. It’s likely that community exists but you don’t know about it because you’ve just moved back. You’ll soon get your own community. Be patient and put yourself out there more when you can.
I love watching the Congolese videos as I prepare to come there. I’m certain I’ll be living in Kinshasa and the main things that worry me are language barrier, infrastructure- internet, and food. Your experience gives me a good idea of what to expect but I have a really positive outlook. I am just super excited
Very good video! A Congolese here watching from United Kingdom, I agree with the challenges you've mentioned, especially the mentality of people in Kinshasa is so appalling. Regardless of all those challenges I have decided to move back to Congo mainly because of long term health benefits, organic food, weather, and being my own boss, and also avoiding a lot taxes like here in the West. But I will not be living in Kinshasa. I also think that it would be better to set up a Homestead and live off grid, and set up a business that you will not necessarily need to depend on people so much, for example having a couple apartments to rent out for holidays makers... This is what I have in mind, I don't wanna depend on the government or anyone... Thank you and all the best
Congolaise raised in Kinshasa, I miss DRC sometines. Appreciate your honesty, I've seen too much hype from African influencers showing a serious lack of business intelligence. Glad to see Africans who are thinking straight, to navigate the business environment better. Thank you for educating us on the economic realities that we shouldn't neglect at home.
Just subscribed to your channel. I love your truth. You spoke the honest truth. And this goes across to all African diasporans. Every now and then i have to travel out for my mental health😂😂😂😂😂 . Its tough out there, but its fun. Life is more fun and exciting ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow This is the first video of yours that I've seen, and I absolutely love this kind of content! I also live in Canada and am considering moving back home. Your video has been the most helpful one I've come across. Do you recommend finding a job there before relocating and starting a business, or should I move back first and dive straight into my project? Thank you so much!
congrats! honestly there's no right way of doing it. If you're more risk adverse, do the job route as it gives you the cushion of earning an income whilst networking and discovering the local culture/market demand to inform your next business decision.
You've mixed your personal issues with some of Kinshasa challenges... But not all the people that want to come in DRC are in your same situation... I mean if you need external things to have fulfilled Lifestyle... The issues are not only external at this point. We have our own culture and we are proud of it people try to be happy even if they have nothing.
Hey sister N when will you come to setup a gas bottling business here in Brazzaville ? DRC is slowly entering its golden years in industrialization no matter how disorganized the country is nothing will stop it to happen.
You telling the truth my sister I am a 28 years old lady living in SA my family has started putting pressure on me that I must get married and they find for me a man that I must come back to get married to that man😢 when I spoke to him over the phone we do not have the same mindset at all
interessting , thank you for this, some how makes me mad, because even though , last time I was in congo is 32 years ago, I know exactly what you mean, the MENTALITY is Messed up with congolese people !!

With Kontisha, you should really start visiting twice a year before you move permanently.

Sorry to hear that! Did you tell them you don’t want to get marry to him ? Do you have a job in SA ?
@@aimeemideso1294 I did tell them they say that I must resign and and go back to congo ,to meet him face to face
I am South african I want to explore congo
True, life is crazy expensive in Kinshasa and all over DRC , I think its because we use US dollars a lot,
you got it! and we dont produce much locally because everything is imported, so that influences inflation
Respect is earned not given.. as someone with a master's degree you should know that. Great vid regardless
