I really believe that what creators lik3 you do is making the world a better place. Exposure to other cultures and people helps break down walls of hate and ignorance. And seeing you, in real life, not a picture in a book you don't want to read does teach. And teaches better than any book can. America is so big it's normal to never leave this country, and that's with yearly vacations in places a thousand miles from home. We never see the rest of the world, so it's easier to believe stereotype. But you, you show us a real place, with real people. No one is starving. You don't sleep in trees. You show us the richness and beauty of Uganda. Not Africa, but a country in Africa. Unfortunately, many need to learn the difference.
Thank you so Much
@@AketchJoyWinnie Your videos are amazing and make me feel proud of being African!!!! Thank you so much for making them!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
You have a very calming energy. You are an awesome teacher and storyteller! 😊
Thank you so much 🙂
Hello Winnie@@AketchJoyWinnie
Dear Aketch Joy Winnie,
I usually don't comment on youtube because i think that there are already so many people commenting, how could you read all of them right?
But I just want to say that what you are doing is ver very important. I am a 27 year old woman, I live in a wooden tiny house in the Netherlands without electricity and don't use internet or a phone a lot but especially to watch your video's i go to a place where there is wifi and electricity. Because everytime I watch it I feel like i am looking at real life, I am trying to live more in tune with nature. Like growing my own food, foraging, less technology, making my own clothes and learning ancient skills. But what i am still missing a lot is what you show many times in your video's, community. I have found my own kind of community of friends around me whom i love very very much but what you show and describe is something different, you don't have to relearn how community works, I do... we in the west have lost this very precious thing. Also when you talked about that in your village people don't really know anxiety and stress. I can see it in the way you talk and move, its relaxed and not hurried. I am trying that as well but its so deeply in our culture and years and years of conditioning, so i have a long way to go. When i watch your video, I feel homesick to that way of living that is still in my DNA.
Anyway i want to tell you i think you are amazing and doing very well with your video's, thank you so much for sharing it with you and it would be an honor to meet you one day and learn from you about your village.
Thank you Aketch Joy Winnie. You are lovely.
Lots of love.

Thank you for making these videos. I honestly don't know how I accidentally came across your channel once, but I was hooked since then and have been watching for over a year now. Your videos bring me so much peace and I really enjoy watching them, as I learn so much! ❤❤ I live in the UK, but I am Indian by ethnicity and your village videos really remind me of the old villages in India that my dad always tells me about when he was growing up there. Thank you for all you do! 😊
My name is Cheryel. I love your videos. I share them with friends to challenge their stereotypes.
You asked us to share ourselves with you.
I, too, am a Christian. I'm a United Methodist Certified Lay Speaker. I preach at tiny rural churches that can't afford a full-time pastor.
I'm also a grandmother and a great grandmother. I love how your culture views their elders.
I'm a quilter. I love different fabric from different countries. I have indigenous fabric designed by Australian aborigines that i will make into a quilt. I would love to get some fabric from all the countries of Africa. I wish i could see cloth makers there.
God bless and prosper you in all you do.
I come from a family of "teachers"... Only some of us are school teachers by profession, but all of us teach in some way. Yes, once a teacher, always a teacher, because sharing knowledge and learning are at the core of our being.
I have learned so much from you on this channel. You are a natural teacher. 🙏🏼
my question is: what are some of your favorite songs from childhood?
thank you for doing what you do! i’m glad to learn from you more about this world in which we all live
Good question. I now have to think which songs 😅 . But thank you
Thank you for such a lovely insight into your world! You may want to correct the captions, which say you are NOT a Christian! God bless.
I clarified later . Auto captions just act different with accents .
I am a Christian too, love you sister!
Thank you sis ❤
Green banana my favorite food, yes we put oil in our hand to prevent staining.
Yes
Greetings to you from Southern California, USA🇺🇸
I love how you started your video by singing a little.
I’m 33 Female and also a Christian 🙏🏻and my name is Wendy
Oh sis Wendy . So blessed to meet you ❤
You are so amazing. I used to work in the fashion industry and am familiar with your work! I love it that you are a real person and not like a lot of the industry people from the 1990’s. May God keep and bless you!
I am a last child by circumstance. losing a sibling at an early age changes the whole family. Losing my little sister forced me to see the world a little different than most in that I know this life is short term and everyday is a blessing, even the pain. So going about life in a way that is meaningful, and fun is very important.
Thank you ,Aketch. You are a joy to listen to and I have learned so much about your life in Uganda 🇺🇬. So you are indeed still a teacher! Do you have a love interest in your life? I apologize if that is too personal. Keep on being your beautiful, poised, and dedicated Christian self. Love from USA!
I had always wondered if you still model,thank you for clearing that up.
I also wanted to see how you prepare the matoke,I guess if I'm lucky, I'd see that on the next video.
Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed day ❤.
Hi Joy, Thank you for the lovely introduction. Blessings and much love from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️
Thanks for just being you ❤
I'm loving this hairstyle on you. It frames your face beautifully. And love the movement.
Watching you reminds me of how my relatives in the Northern Philippines put cooking oil in their palms before peeling sappy vegetables. The way you, my grandma and my aunts handle the knife is quite similar. I bet you can peel veggies even if your eyes are closed. I lack that skill because I grew up in the city and I use vegetable peelers. 🤭
Thank you! 💖😚💕 I enjoyed the ASMR at the end. 😂
😂😂😂😂
Traditional Ugandan skin and haircare regimens could be fun.
Hi Joy! I had no idea you were a teacher. Of course you still are! I was an academic librarian in a large community college for 25 years. I had to retire on disability because I developed kidney failure. I’m now on dialysis and just take one day at a time. I’ve had a lot of surgeries and I still have more to come. I’m also a Christian and I’m grateful for God’s blessings in my life. And that include you!
You are a universal educator . . A natural teacher.
Thank you for your videos, i love your calmness 🙌
Greetings from Italy! I would love to know how a daily life looks like in your village. I imagine it quieter as ours here in europe
Yes this part of the country is very quiet 😅
Thank you Aketch for sharing a lil bit about yourself I appreciate 🙏🏼
Great Content ❤❤❤. Love your channel so much. Always something new to learn ❤
Good morning Aketch. I'm holding on, that's how I'm doing 😂. How are you? I too was a kindergarten teacher and a model too. I'm from Jamaica and I love your videos. I love your sense of humor❤
Okay question since we are learning so much about food. What is your favorite dishes from the places you have visited for your job and what have you yet to try but really want to?
Is there anywhere you'd love to travel to?
What made you get into modeling and not become a teacher?
What does your younger siblings want to do when they get older job wise or education?
Really love to see your long-form videos. Question: how did your family feel about you becoming a model?
I am still enjoying all your videos. I'm American and your way of life is so different, I just want to learn more! Questions- what does the green banana- matooke? Taste like? Also, what are those little birds walking around called?
I knew that in the Caribbean we eat ripen in plantains thanks to the heritage from enslaved West Africans. We eat green bananas and green plantains too which other countries think it's weird. I'm glad to see there's an explanation from another part of the African continent.
Interesting, we call that green fig in the Caribbean and usually cook it in the skin, and peel it after
love to see video from a village culture. Im good with some unsolve problems. As you say in our country some problems are so big and obsessive compared to your country. I take a lot of time to being in touch with the spiritual world as well.
"Chay, chau" How lovely!
Sawbona from South Africa! I'd love to see the meal you make with the green bananas. Do those ripen to yellow if left, or is that a different type? And how do you manage the crops from not being eaten by goats and monkeys 😅
Yes matooke ripens to yellow colour...can be eaten uncooked or cooked
Zero grazing is famous here
Once a teacher, always a teacher is so true!
You are definitely a teacher!!
We rub our hands with cooking oil before peeling green bananas in Jamaica 🇯🇲 too
Love your videos
Thank you Aketch!
We love you Joy in the Bahamas
Hello lovely Joy. Thank you for sharing your calm laid back culture. ❤
I have never been to any country in Africa, but one day I hope to be able to visit a few.
I’d like to know:
How many languages do you speak? What language is Aketch ? i
What does it mean?
❤
Love you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Where do you get your beautiful clothes? I also prefer to dress modestly and it’s hard to find good stuff much of the time
Loved the video. I have a question for you. I am confused on your house. You have shown us some videos where you are in a brick and mortar home and you have also how the home with natural materials. Where do you live most of the time? Is it village vs city? I keep dreaming of one day visiting Africa. Till then enjoying thro your channel. Makes me think of Sringeri, a village in India, where my mom is from.
Can you post some more of your modeling please thanks❤
I do on my IG
i love you too Joy. God bless you. how did you learn video editing?
You should try doing ASMR! Your voice is super calming
You teach us every video and make us want to know more.
Is that corn growing behind you? And could we maybe get a tour of the garden?
I am truly curious to know how do you protect yourself from mosquitos and the diseases they transfer? Is it something you need to constantly think about, be concerned or mindful about or it is not a problem in the area you live? Some time ago on TV there was a documentary about a famous Zika forrest in Uganda, where researchers catch and study the mosquitos. It was very interesting.
nice.thank you for the content and keep it comming.👋
Love you Aketch!
Do you use the peels for a recipe as well? I have seen green banana flour sold in the United States and it is supposedly pretty nutritious! Thanks for your videos 💓
❤
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
❤
In America it is a wild time rn
Question: why so you drop the matooke in water? And can it not be peeled like bananas with hands?
You are beautiful inside and out. ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰
I'm curious what are you cooking...
I would love to know how you cook and eat the green banana. Obviously you're going to boil it... Do you go on and roast or fry it after boiling? Do you mash it? Do you serve it like an addition to protein? Or by itself like a pudding?
Search on UA-cam, how to prepare matooke in Uganda..you will get more answers 😊
Why do you eat the banana while they are hard and green? Love your content!
We don't eat them hard and green..after peeling they are steamed to become super soft, then smashed..nobody can eat uncooked matooke...

Oh, Aketch, there is a very BIG typo in your captions... You say with your mouth "I am a Christian" but your caption says "I am NOT Christian".
😮
I didn't realize you were based on Uganda.
Ebible Fellowship
O' so you are a Christian,Mrs.Joy
i am the anti-christ👿 (Just kidding 🙈)
Reading through Psalms,came across this passage just now, hence sharing it here,✌️🤗
~Psalms 31:24
Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart,
All you who hope in the Lord.
Amen
What else are you harvesting these days?
Allah is one
Jesus is prophit not god
When you started saying goodbye I was like “nooo, it hasn’t already been 6 minutes 🥺” I love your videos on YT and Insta!🫶🏻
I actually had a question do you also have Sunday service in your village? I don’t know if you already mentioned this before
❤
