  • In this vlog, we venture into Nkunga forest! We have been wanting to explore it for a while and finally made the time for it this week. We love getting in the safari van and seeing where the path takes us.
    We definitely want to go back and find the elephants that live there sometime soon.
    Thanks for watching! ❤️🇰🇪

    Those pesky "ensanafu" (as we call them locally in central Uganda), can reach all "hidden" places on the human body (and immediately let you know they're there 😅). Beautiful video ❤

    Ooohh Mann, I love that feeling of going through the woods on a wet dirt road. Feels so satisfying

    Thank you for inviting us along on your trip. I live in California in the US and I'm enjoying seeing parts of Africa via YT that are not shown on television. I was so ignorant of the climate, city life and so many other aspects of Kenya. It is a joy watching your videos while working the night shift at work ( it is a slow work environment with downtime 🙂)

    • @Mekenzeinkenya
      @Mekenzeinkenya  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you so much for watching! I love documenting and sharing.. and I understand that Africa is portrayed in an incorrect way in the media for the most part. Im happy that narrative is changing through TH-cam and other platforms.
      Glad you’re able to watch and enjoy during your downtime. ☺️

    I appreciate and congratulate your family for showing rural life style in Kenya and by extension to some countries in Motherland Africa. Madame et Monsieur you've contributed immensely to upgrade the image of rural life in Africa. Moreover, sustainable agro-pastoral développement to receive more government support or other partners. Likewise, bloggers such as fantastic Wode Maya, the Reich Kenyan and Canadian family, Mr. Nwaka in Nigeria, a German and Ghanian family in Kumasi Ghana and wonderful rural people documentaries by Mariam Dido, based in Plateau State Nigeria. International media coverage of Africa had always been biaised and distorted. Thanks for the improvemebt. ♥️♥️♥️, your children are wonderful.🇨🇭

    Lots of terrific things in today's video. It was funny seeing George in the forest with his weird 'dance'. The music you selected for the forest safari was wonderful. It gave me a lot of joy and I danced in my chair as I watched. I'm always amazed at how well your children keep themselves quietly occupied and how well they play together. Continued blessings and joy.

We call that bush that the leaves close ‘ shame bush’, meaning it’s shy, where I am from. George just showing the kids what not to eat due to the consequences ,life lessons 😂😂😂.
