Thanks for watching.
Believe in yourself always.
I'll comment on the salt part. Kenyans are really health conscious. And as such, they find it prudent for you to add salt to your liking. That's why we don't over-salt. Plus I think it's part of basic culinary arts. You'd rather have salt on the side for someone rather than too much or too little while cooking.
I see where you're coming from.
I love it that Kenya is not “salt happy.” Too much salt is not healthy. In the U.S. I have to ask fast food places to omit the salt for my order. I’ll be glad to experience low salt in Kenya. ❤
True 😁
Wow, what a lovely lady with lovely voice. The narration was calm and therapeutic. Karibu Kenya next time.
Asante sana 😊
Nabz, we were taught as kids in primary school something called "The Loyalty Pledge." At the time we didn't even know we were taking an oath to love, protect and defend our country 😅😅😅😅
Nabz Arah 🇺🇬 is lovely lady with very honest insights on her visit to her neighborhood country of Kenya 🇰🇪. Karibu tena anytime you so wish 💯 🙏.
Asante Sana 😊
Very nice vlog. I was there recently and I had the same experience - people are friendly and most welcoming. Watching from USA. 👍👍
I'm glad you had a great experience
Patriotism was instilled in us by President Moi. The philosophy is Peace Love and Unity
Wow, he did so well
Moi? Which Moi? Kenyans are naturally disciplined,they lack leadership. Plastic bags ban is a good example.
Nabz Kenya has completely changed you girl,you look different from the person who arrived in Nairobi two months ago.Keep it up.
My sentiments exactly 👏👏👏
Guys all I have is makeup 😂😂
She belongs to Kenya
@@NabzArah You're Beautiful 😍 as well.
Uliiba...not make up...
In Kenya, we are conscious of the problems of salt so we don't take a lot of salt. A lot of Kenyans also don't take sugar. I have a sugar dish in my kitchen that has turned to stone because I never use it unless I have visitors. What I use a lot is black pepper. So we always give people the option to add salt and sugar if they want.
This is amazing, putting health first
I need to stop taking sugar but it’s difficult
@@lilac8794 just takes 2 weeks of avoiding it to get used to life without. Try it, your body will thank you.
@@lilac8794 it happens slowly. If you go a week without sugar, imagine you will enjoy even a pinch of it. Then you'll realize it's not the sugar you like but the contrast. Same thing with salt.
Thanks for visiting Kenya and for the positive and honest feedback. You are welcome back again.
Asante Sana
Whether you say Zebra or pedestrian crossing it means the same thing. And there's always the option of adding salt to your food. Nyama choma simple means grilled or barbecued meat, so don't expect it to have soup. We have wet fry, dry fry and beef stew if you want soupy food.
Wonderful and honest opinion, enjoyed the video.
Well done. Great video. Come to Kenya again soon.
Most food in Kenyan fast food restaurants is usually saltless. It's best for business to avoid oversalting or undersalting.
If you want meat that is not dry, you simply order "wet fry" with soup on the side.
Ur glowing dear ❤😂
Thanks, I understand now
Patriotism is actually a topic in our curriculum and we even have patriotic songs we sing and dance to as well and its some drilled in us from our tender age as we grow older
This is really amazing to know
Loyalty Pledge taught in primary school
Nabz, glad you've been experiencing some cultural differences which are opening your mind even more.
Yes they definitely opened up my mind
Great educative, Welcom back Princess to Kenya, we welcome you all..Kenya is free nation n lov for visitors
Nabz you are our sister, from Uganda, karibu Kenya again we love you as Kenyans thank you for visiting Kenya
Asante Sana
Thanks alot for this nice content. About salt is healthy to measure well salt, Am happy that you enjoyed your stay in Kenya, you're most welcomed back. Even Uganda is a beautiful country, we loves you.
Thank you, we love you too
Kenya has 47 counties and the place called Juja is in Kiambu County, Mlolongo where the express way starts is Machakos county, Diani beach is in Kwale county.
The difference between county and district is that county is a political unit and district is an administrative unit
Thanks for the added information
Nice to hear someone else appreciating our uniqueness. However Mombasa and salt water really depends on where you are because there's fresh water
For the carrier bags...some vendors will pack for you without charging you for it while others will tell you to buy it. However, before the no plastic bags policy...they could pack for you free of charge even in supermarkets.
Yeah that's what my friend explained
I'm a Kenyan living abroad from the coast but ihav never known salt water being used for bathing that's new ! Unless you were swimming in the ocean.
The water in the showers was salty
@@NabzArah i only drink bottled water while at the Coast
Nice content... Currently heading to Kampala from Mombasa, just also to tour your country
Wow, welcome to Uganda
Thank you for you're vlogs. I have thoroughly enjoyed them ever since you visited Kenya.
I'm so glad 😊
Thanks for visiting my County Kenya, you are always welcome and you can make it your home too so we build it together ❤
Thank you for the invite 🤍
I see you’ve adopted the Kenyan “ Wueeh!” Exclamation 😂😂
😂😂 it happened so fast
😅😅😅
Lovely. Keeping it up there. Very impressive. Sad to realise the tour has ended. This to me is just part I. Please prepare part II. I believe you have more shockers to tell.
Haha let me prepare
Yes please. Drawn from your comments in the previous posts. Lets hear your experience from issues such as Mpesa, the food in Mombasa, public toilet charges, currency changing etc. Yes you have more.
Usually love draws back love and positivity draws back the same. That is how human beings are wired to relate. By now you must have realised that Kenyans are open minded. The enthusiastic reception and love your trio received was in response to your disposition, demeanor and attitude. It may not largely have been a spontaneous action. Your hosting family, the fans, subscribers and viewers from Kenya are people who have been following you for a while me included. You have heard of the brutal Kenyans on Twitter. There are some neighbours who come here, loathe and envy us and some cheeky Kenyans hit back. You came with love, objectivity, opennes and a sisterly attitude. For your case you gave love and it was reciprocated.
One of the biggest compliments about your video is that you are so pretty... 😍
Thank you 😍😍
Yes Mashpoa staff is very helpful.
For food there many kenyans who sont use salt or sugar due to many reasons (medical or out of choice) thats why hotels will.not put salt or sugar in the food or tea
Welcome to kenya
Zebra crossing is not racist but its an old name in reference to white black lines.
On patriotism, you will know a Kenyan by the wrist band they wear. Our flag. An yes it is true, if we see our Kenyan flag or name on a thumbnail, we will definitely come to the UA-cam channel.
And this is one of my favorite thing about Kenyans
Good job
Most of us Kenyans believe that Tanzanians, Ugandans and Kenyans we are one, children of the same mother. Karibu Kenya Hakuna Matata.
Salt 🧂 wise in UK 🇬🇧 they also don't add salt to food, they let you pit ur own salt at the table. It was a cultural shock for me too😊
Girl, us we're used to salt 😂 the way I keep adding salt to my food 🙌🏽🙈
@@NabzArahI think if you are a traveller you'll understand the comparison this supu thing
Hi Nabz looking forward to work with you as anew UA-camrs
I like the salt part..we Kenyans dont take alot of salt on health grounds
We love you Nabz
I love you guys too so much 😊
In America where I live it is called Pedestrian Crossing. In East Africa where we come from it is Zebra Crossing
I only heard of pedestrian crossing recently
@@NabzArah Actually in America it is .PDX
Baby you look fine.
Ati zebra crossing🤔🤔those wazungus played with the always sleepy african dambass to mean we are animals crossing there... hehehe now you know!
@@fegow-farmland8399....it's because of the white&black stripes, doesn't mean what is supposed to cross on that spot
Was Mpesa one of the culture shocks? Most content creators from other countries find it quite intriguing 😊
Not really coz we have mobile money in Uganda too. I only realized that I wasn't making so much use of it in Uganda and I've changed that now.
We also had provinces and districts before the 2010 constitution which replaced the provincial administration with county governments. I am sure you still maintain the 7-4-2-3 academic system. Ours has changed to 8-4-4 and now we have the competence-based curriculum - CBC - 2-6-6-3.
Hi.i never thought we have culture difference between Kenyans and Ugandans.I thought and this goes to many Kenyans,we take Udandans as our brothers and sisters and not as foreigners.I also dont think Ugandans need passports to travel to Kenya,Kenya is your second home.if you are not married kindly get a Kenyan man,we love Ugandan women their morals are in another level.
😂😂😂 apewe bwana❤
Welcome again to our beautiful country 😌
Asante
Welcome back anytime
Thanks
I believe Zebra crossing because those are zebra colours.And for pedestrians to identify where to cross without motorists affecting them
Hi nice video. As an aside 4 a kenyan who's not been to my neighbour's we r always told UG drivers are more disciplined
I disagree 🥲
But you can buy canvas bags to get your things packed plus that's Gikomba market so.......
Agreed on so many points.
The people in Uganda are also kind, civil and helpful!
Also, the Super Metro is proper induction into Kenya. We love that bus. 😂😂
Just completing my Uganda tour and I feel like I should do a blog post and draw comparisons as well.
Please please do the blogspot and share the link with me 😊 I'd love to hear about your experience in Uganda 🇺🇬
The beauty of Kenya transport is that they have different prices for peak hour and off peak hours
Yeah I experienced this. Prices would be lower at off peak hours
We had districts back then but now you can get like 4,5.... former districts making up one county. Then in that one county there are several constituencies being headed by M. P. A single constituency has several wards being controlled by MCAs(member of county assembly).Overseer of running of county affair is a senator. So, governer and mcas are based in counties while Mps and senators are based in Nairobi - parliament and senate respectively.
Thanks so much for the added information
Did you visit floating lewatoni bridge while at Mombasa.. Try it..
Do you know how we miss that Kenyan food you call dry out here... I saw you eating nyama Choma and I immediately fell home sick..
Sukuma wiki and ugali is a top notch on my list once back there..
Try also western Kenya
We don't sweat so much in Nairobi due to cold climate.. as a result so much salt is retained in the body... so instinctively don't eat a lot salt...
Okay this must be the explanation that makes most sense
Correct 💯 makes healthy sense.
False. We don’t take a lot of salt juu hatujazoea. It gets extremely hot in Nairobi for the most part 😂
@@lilac8794 it's like youve never experienced other kind of climates apart from that of Nai. Nairobi has moderate climate
Salt in Kenya one is supposed to put your limit coz not everyone takes salt and some people don't take salt coz of blood pressure people avoit to get blood pressure
Generally we don't like too much salt and it's also taken as a health hazard- Just like cigarette smoking. About the soup I know you guys like your sauce- gnut etc. I miss roasted gonja and gonja crisps which so far I have not seen in Kenya-at least not common in Nairobi or places I frequent. Also you guys prefer forks while Kenyans prefer spoons.
I prefer spoons too by the way since way back 😁
Most restaurants serve minimal dishes coz of vast tribes in Kenya. ln 3-5star hotels/ proper hotels serve soup as accompaniment...
Thank you
Karibu tena Kenya, we love you ❤
Asante Sana
The Mwakazis' are so generous people 👍
Very generous 😊
Nabs on the plastic bags, It was a consious decision by the country to conform with environmental conservation. so taxes on plastics being raised was to discourage their use.
They tried to implement this in my country and it failed 🥲
@@NabzArah even in Kenya it is failing, huku Busia Border hapana tambua hizo bags za Uhuru
@@NabzArah United Nations Environment Program ((UNEP) headquarters is in Nairobi, so we have to try harder 🙂
@@fegow-farmland8399 In Nairobi it works
We all wear wrist bands of our flag with t-shirts reading i love being kenyan, najivunia kuwa mkenya😂.
Our matatus have wifi,yes😂
Your looking good, you mean your not back to Uganda after all this demonstration, we need you to start with type of foods in Kenya from different tribes, we have 42. Good work.
Thank you. I left before the demonstrations
Kenya we need to get our soup game up.
Only if you guys want the soup
Central kenyan has Taken one for the team. Enough soup debt for the whole country..😂😂😂
We have variety, if you want soupy food just have a stew
I see Nairobi Teacher and Pamba Arnolda..Welcome to Kenya. You are Gorgeous..But you sound Kenyan..This Kenyan Rastaman Has subbed to you. Welcome to the Land of Freedom
They're some people who eat little or no salt so we consider them
So thoughtful of you guys
When I was back in TZ this summer my name was Bwana Chumvi. 😂
It’s still called a Zebra crossing as per the Highway Code here in the UK. I think this was a British term.
Thank you
Commuter trains are now 1500 for economy classmy sister
Thanks for the update 😊
Super metro matatus are very quiet,, next try matatus from Nairobi to Rongai or from CBD to Ruaka😂 you won't be able to hear the person seated next to you speak
🤣🤣🤣 I need to get in prepared
you forgot the part where they serve you soup in a cup.....to me that was crazy😀😀
This never happened to me. Do share your full story please, where did you go to eat?
I also carried my things in my hands there also on the zebra crossings cars could stop in Kenya
I'm glad someone can witness to some of these points
Some of us don't take salt coz were healthy concious
Very understandable
Too much salt is bad for your blood ask people with high blood pressure how do they feel ?
We don't take too much salt,sugar and supu. Utazoea tu 😂😂Modernized
About the salty water,I think where u lived they were using borehole water,not normal tap water
The entire apartment block, apartments around, basically all places in Tudor had salt water in the houses. Then my friends one who was staying in docks and another in bamburi all said they had salt water too
@@NabzArah In Mombasa most households use borehole water and it’s salty because the area is near the ocean therefore underground water will also be salty no matter how deep the borehole is
Thanks for the explanation
It's just simple, zebra crossing means zebras crossing at the same time, padestrians crossing means padestrians crossing.
Mmmh
Zebra crossing refers to the stripes on the road at pedestrian crossings because they appear black and white
And where did you get this?
Patriotic because of the National anthem... And sports makes us love 5ge country... We have freedom of speech so we talk and make fun of ourselves but we do not allow anyone talk ill of Kenya
PERFECT
Thanks for watching 😊
Soup is bone soup... Nyama choma is our main thing....
It is pedestrian crossing, karibu Kenya again
Asante
Nze nkyaali eno abroad😂❤
😂😂😂😂 tovaayo
Kenya??
We love you as a kenyan 😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 I'm Kenyan now
@@NabzArah That nice kenya is second home
zebra crossing is just ok, poeple need to be less touchy😂😂
Exactly! It's just a comparison because of the stripes😅😅😅
Give positive criticism also,,,eg nairobi river dumping
This wasn't such a shock
We used to have districts too, until we implemented our new constitution in the early 2000s (I think), which included a devolved government (less centralised, more powers assigned to local governments). That's when the regional names changed.
The devolved government is actually a big reason why Counties have been able to develop (infrastructure etc), as there's now more effective and efficient allocation of funding country wide instead of being concentrated in the central government.
Oh, and zebra crossing is definitely not racist 😅 leave "pedestrian crossing" to Americans.
This is the best explanation I've seen on why you guys have counties and I see the benefits are amazing.
@@NabzArah aw glad to help! 😊
@@NabzArah County governments are doing wonders. Now atleast we can get development even on the furthest part of Kenya. There's some form of uniformity across
It's really evident
There is a place called Kienjeji around kilimani they have very delicious chicken, beef and fish soup you will love it. Bad thing about Nairobi is that it’s dominated by Kikuyu and the Kikuyu don’t know how to cook
Yaaaaaaaaaaawwwn
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll check it out
Bad thing. But you have the restaurant at least
Kikuyu...😂😂
Umechoma atii Hahaha, not all kikuyu but 80%for sure cooking is a problem to them
You wanted nyama choma to be accompanied with some soup? 😂 😂 😂
Imagine, its grilled how do you have soup in it?😅😅😅
In public or at home, Kenyan food is made to appeal to diverse preferences....no excess salt,no excess spice or none at all! That way, anyone can add salt or any condiments on the table at their own liking or taste. Healthy eating! 👌
The county and governor aspect is based on divolved government where public services should and must be at the grassroots as per our new 2010 constitution.
Yes, Kenyans are madly patriotic no matter the shortcomings. You'll hear" Proudly Kenyan or Najivunia Kuwa Mkenya" slogans and deeds in equal measure without apologies?😂
No apologies at all. The sense of patriotism that Kenyans have left me so inspired
Also in Uganda even in the street or village everyone calls you Ssebo or Sir if you're a man or Nyabo /madam. That's kinda lacking in Kenya. Formality is mostly in school or courts or corporate office settings.
Yeah I never experienced this in Kenya
On the salt and food consider that someone might be diabetic....
U look so different gal,
It's the makeup
In Mombasa use shower gels
I was using shower gel
I am shocked to hear that patriotism is a subject that is taught in Ugandan schools.
It was in my school and a few schools. I wonder if it's still taught
Can clearly tell you've adopted Kenyan way of speaking, throwing in 'nini' word in your statement 😂.
😅😅😅 I couldn't escape
😅😅😅
You should say something sbout kenyan men snd ladies...
🤣🤣🤣 mmmh I should do a video maybe
How many subs did you have when you came to Kenya?
I had exactly 10k before I started uploading videos from Kenya
About salt, there are people with medical conditions and don't take salt
We have them in Uganda too so restaurant food served in Uganda wouldn't be good for them
Kenyans love for visitors is in their DNA. 😂
You're already Kenyanised ... you have used these expressions Wueh! , nini nini...
Your accent too is different from Ugandan accent
😁😁😁 Kenya is home now
@@NabzArah Karibu Kenya 🇰🇪 always
Hio accent ni ya Uganda bana. Uliza sisi wenye tunaishi Busia Border
It has been zebra crossing ever since nothing to do with racism
Thanks for confirming
In UK do they call zebra crossing
