    I wish you nothing but the best guys! Big up to the wife especially. I'm from Zim, but I have lived in the UK most of my life and the majority of my friends are Jamaican, despite what many may think they are actually more accommodating of other cultures than say another African person and your wife shows that with how much she wants to be integrated into the Zim society. I guess that's also testament to how good the husband is for her to want to do that. I always said I'd end up with a Zim or Jamaican woman, Zimbabwe edged it out, but I would have been just as happy with a Jamaican woman!

      Definitely! Once you don’t look obviously foreign, the locals are gonna approach you in their language 100% of the time! And it becomes uncomfortable to continuously say “Sorry I can’t speak your language”. So learning is 100% a must!

    I am Zimbabwean but i hope and wish we could diversity our food a lot more. Also we need to consume less salt. Maybe more chilly but definitely less salt. I like that we now have things like gango but we need to experiment more and incorporate other food "cultures," from other counties. Maybe Debs you can start by opening a Jamaican/ Ghanaian food place in Zim.

      I loveee this question! My mom’s gonna send me a care package soon from Jamaica and we plan on doing a video on it. I absolutely cannot get a single Jamaican item here! 😅😅 Mangoes yes, but not the same at all.
      I’ve actually adjusted to the food! It’s not as diverse as our Jamaican cuisine, but their meat is top tier! Especially the beef. Chicken is also mostly natural and flavorful. Adjusting to the diet hasn’t been difficult, but I wish they had more diversity. Will do a video on the food soon!
      Love right back at you! We see you!❤️ Thanks for the continued support!

I don’t know if plantains in Jamaica are different from the ones we have in Zimbabwe but i’m from the eastern hughlands in zimbabwe and we have plantains all year round, we also have different types of bananas like the carvendish banana and mini bananas, we have different types of yams which we call madhumbe and there is also magogoya, we have different types of cereal crops which include bulrush millet, sorghum, finger millet, livingstone potato/ tsenza, a variets of peas, beans, cowpeas, we have so many bean types i can’t name them all but the most consumed are navy beans, kidney beans, soy beans, pinto beans, wax beans, black beans, chickpeas, cranberry beans and many more we have a variety of meats, pork, beef, goat, rabbit, sheep, crocodile, chicken, turkey, duck, ostrich, fish and their types, game meat and so on, we have sweet potatoes, potatoes, rice, maize, sweet corn, cauliflower, brocolli, covo, tsunga, kale, kale, sweet cabbage, red cabbage, you go to the supermarket and there is tuna, shrimp, king crab sticks, hake fillets, tilapia fillets and loads of fruit, i don’t get it what more variety do you need.

    • @TheMegabushFamily
      @TheMegabushFamily  Рік тому +1

      Yes! We completely agree with that point! Housing situation must be sorted out. Perhaps if you live with family initially for a short time 2-3months while you settle may be fine if the family relationship is good; but definitely not long term.
      It’s funny, the friends I’ve made are either work friends or through Tony lol (eg. His friend’s wife, or his friend’s sister lol) I haven’t managed to make friends independently yet mostly because my work schedule is hectic. But the friends I do have, have been great and supportive thus far.
      lol why we’ve settled in Zimbabwe instead of Jamaica is complex, a story for another video! 😂😂😂 But Jamaica isn’t completely off the books…it’s home too 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
