    Imagine physically holding a husband down from building and choosing our homeland as home. I love the answers and I will definitely use them because my response has always been to ignore and not respond.

      Ignoring sometimes is also a good strategy to avoid getting caught up in a back and forth with people who don’t want to hear anyone talking about relocating back home.

    Very nice video. I can definitely relate to what you are saying. We are relocating to Africa too and we are having so much negativity from family members, it's unbelievable. We just ignore them and keep making our plans. I think sometimes, people are so brainwashed by the media that they cannot see things clearly and they make up such silly conclusions about Africa in general no matter which of the 52 countries we pick to go back and live in. I keep telling them that moving to an Africa country means freedom, better living, organic food, a mortgage-free life, and better health. I hope they will understand one day. Keep doing your thing.

      It is disappointing when the biggest critics are your family members or close friends. All the things you have mentioned the organic food, better health, mortgage free life etc are THE GOOD LIFE for us. I wish you all the best with your relocation journey let’s us keep doing our thing.

    The truth in this! The sad thing is that most people think that being in the diaspora one is "immune to dying", yes, services are there but even in the diaspora people are dying.

      The country’s that we live in are good are PR they will never parade their challenges in public so some people are none the wiser until they come to diaspora and see that their streets are not paved with gold. I never thought a white person could be homeless sleeping in the streets and eating out of the bin until I saw it with my own eyes in Great Britain on the streets of London. It shocked me.

    It's unbelievable how our own people discourage each other to go back home shuwa. It's so disheartening one says to you, you gonna regret this move then I'm thinking surely in this country where there's no lyfe it's just a sad sad country full of misery bedzi bedzi. I wish our people could just stop this issue of discouraging others please. There is lyfe outside England veduwe. Some will declare handibude muno then I'm thinking haaaa saka kutoda kuendeswa ku home dzemuno without one enjoying their life. Ummmmm its a sad situation, well done to you mai Zuruvi for making such a good decision ndokufunga uku.🙏

I think people are now comfortable living from hand to mouth vachimukuria ma shifts! Asi ukaona waita 20 years uchikakaritsana ne shift apa uchiramba kudzokera kumusha haaa pakaipa. People stop demoralising other people who are ready to leave The UK, let's learn to support eachother not to discourage others because iweiwe hauna plan!

      The sad part for me is the fact that someone will discourage you from returning to your home country which is their own country too. I have accepted that some people including family are settled here and will never go back. But I don’t criticise them for their decision like some do for our decision to relocate back to Zimbabwe. We can’t all be the same but we can show each other respect ✊🏿.

      @@TheTandisLivingtheGoodLife Yes 🙌🏾 and they go on to project their own fears by discouraging you. I remember being called so many names when I decided to go home after being in school abroad for 5 years. Ndainzi I’m foolish, who does that, what if they don’t allow you back but my mind was set and I knew that if God wanted me to come back he will grant me a visa to come back. I had already gotten a work permit by then but I really wanted to have that visa stamp on my passport, just to have that freedom to go home when I want to and that meant me leaving the country. If I listened to people and went against my strong intuition I wouldn’t be where I am today. I would still be stuck just because of fear.

      You have brought a fair point on one of the many reasons why relocation is not possible for some people. I would love to discuss this further if possible for our upcoming podcast. I totally understand if you are unable to do so you don’t even need to give me a reason. I just think it’s important for those who relocate to be empathetic to those who have the desire but may not be able to do it.
