Best travel tip: "The locals are running. I'm running."
++++
Me in every situation
Yesssss
Taylor Finley I could escape from a riot once in a foreign country just by looking at locals so yeah good advice
True words of wisdom!
"Where are you from?"
"The United States."
*gets a stank eye*
Lmao I love Africans with all my heart
A TRUE AUNTIE
The bird that Youngjae holds in the Hard Carry MV. Lmao I laughed so hard. I'm Kenyan so I get my people
The bird that Youngjae holds in the Hard Carry MV. Fellow ahgase!!!
The bird that Youngjae holds in the Hard Carry MV. 😂😂😂😂
I STARTED SCREAMING
"we're form the United States"
"Huh"
That was gold!
++
lol she woke
thats how kenyans reply, it's as if saying "okay" or "hmm" in america lol
I was dying at that part!
It wasn't huh it was "enh" a sound we make. Cannot translate it. It just a response in conversation. It doesn't really have a meaning.
When he tried to talk you into marriage😩😩I'm WEAK
Omg Kenya locals are the absolute sweetest
I agree!!!!
Oh you mean super invasive?
Dude you need to go visit Kenyans are amazingly inviting, they will go out of there way to make sure you are comfy in Kenya
Danilo Alves Hello 🙃! From personal experience I would say that what makes them seem “invasive” also makes them the most g.e.n.e.r.o.u.s, welcoming and open people. Vibes from Kenyans (and sub-saharian African) is a whole other level, I wish I was chill like that ❤️💛💚
Have a good dayyyyy
Danilo Alves i dont think theyre invasive i think that the rest of us are just less social and dont like human interaction as much bc we’re all glued to our phones
‘My pants are about to fall down, so Kenya you about to see some white cheeks’. Legendary.
How did I know that would be the first comment I would see when I scrolled down lol, funniest part of the whole video tho
I was going to type that, and then I looked down...you beat me. Too funny!!
Right as the video said that I read this lol
That phone alarm sound is truly traumatizing
kls0110 It was truly triggering 💀
Every time I hear that damn sound anywhere my heart skips a beat
Took the words out my mouth
No lie
I was so triggered omg
"When you're too smart for your future self" - Damon 😂❤
I read this just when he said it 😂
the "i can sell you some grapes" man was iconic
Omg Damon hiding his money and not findig it later is mE
realised Damon being that clumsy is alsO ME
I really appreciate that you make a point to mention that you're in rural Kenya.
I feel like all too often, people will see one type of environment in a (sub Saharan) African country and think the whole country looks like that. There are towns, cities, and rural areas just like there are in many other countries. There's variety like everywhere else (:
Thanks for being mindful!
Sougen 02 I love your comment. Thumbs up to Damonandjo for being awesome.

MY FAVORITE TH-cam DUO!
WillOnAWhim you are here too , I like love them so much but I love your channel as well like I have been OnAWhim for a year now kkkkkkkkkk lots of love
Omg I had no idea you watched them
“ Muzungu moves” aka white person taking an L 😂😂😂you’re killing me. Great to see you guys immerse yourselves into the culture
Yeah, tampons aren't a huge thing in Africa. It's a cultural thing. I didn't know what those were until I came to the U.S.
OMG Pls just stop!
Not everywhere in Africa lmao
Oliver Anderson I didn't say they couldn't be found anywhere in Africa. I meant in comparison to pads, the aren't as common or well known.
Erela Datuowei I never said you did. Where I'm from, tampons are just as much of a thing as they are in other parts of the world.
Aaaai you're lying
I definitely want to visit Kenya now.
Joshey dubs I know! Everyone was so polite and happy 💙
People seemed sooooo open and at ease lol buying my tickets brb
Welcome
I feel like y'all haven't uploaded in forever, I was having withdrawal.
Do you have them on Instagram or SnapChat? They post videos on there, too.
If you follow them on Instagram, you get to see daily updates. IIRC they went to Kenya, Greece and France recently.
Kenya is now on my travel bucket list! They are SOOOO sweet!!
jolie luvlee Saame! I know I wanted to tour as much of the continent as I could and Kenya is definitely tempting me more than ever.
you are welcome here
yo welcome
I will help you
jolie luvlee Karibu Kenya!
Damon and Jo before bed is the best~
I'm always interested in how native Africans view people of African Diaspora (like Afro-Brazilians, African Americans, Afro- Puerto Ricans, etc...) a majority of whom have a degree of European admixture and look different than the native African. Like those kids called Jo a "mzungu" or white person even though in America we would definitely consider Jo to be Black.
chrisrockslol my dad is Nigerian and my mom is white German. I'm called yellow or oyinbo (which ist basically the nigerian equivalent to mzungo) when i'm visiting. so yah white in one home and black in the other Lol.
Mwafrika Mkenya .yes is definitely more like related to people's way of thinking, speaking and acting than this light skinned/dark skinned thing. I'm considered the equivalent of muzungu in my parents homecountry because I speak and act very european like, but my brother who's also born in europe speak and act like a lot of our family members back in Congo and he isn't considered like an european, and we both dark skinned.
Outside of America the girl would be considered mixed race just like Obama and drake. People like Lebron James, Kelly Rolland, Issa Rae and Akon etc are considered black. The rest of the world distinguished between being mixed and black unlike the states. Of course many black people in the diaspora who are descendants of enslaved people have a small percentage of European in them, so when I mention black people I’m referring to people who are more than 75% black. Not people who have a drop of black in them and identify as black.
I’m not sure if you know many Africans but black people in the diaspora look similar to Africans.
@MzMahoganyHoneyBrown so would a pure white African immigrant fit into the description of being an "African American" too even though they're 100% white?
@@MzMahoganyHoneyBrown In the states, from my own experience, we do distinguish between mixed and non-mixed people. Where I've lived we have always used the term "mixed" to refer to people who appear to be mixed race. The media refers to Obama as black, but I say black and white. It would be odd to hear someone described as only one of their races if it is known that they are mixed. However, I have heard a few people who are black/white refer to themselves as only black. I'm not sure why though. Objectively they would likely be described as mixed.
when you said "from the United States" that lady was like Hm. that's it our country up to no good
As a Kenyan-American, this made me miss my country so much! Looks like you guys had fun!
Damon Dominique et Joanna Franco,
i FREAKING love you guys.
I wasn’t born in Africa but thank you for not showing only poverty and mentioning that you were in RURAL Kenya(even tho I’m definitely buying my tickets this looks cool as fckk) often, we only get to see people dying from wars and diseases while you showed us that fine people actually live happily and are open/generous/entertaining.
Jo discovering her muzunguness thanks to these kids KILLED me haha. Love and sending good vibes to everyone in the comment section ☀️
I work with a Kenyan and he is one of the most friendliest person I’ve ever met. You two are travel goals 😊
I'm learning Swahili right now so this was so fun to watch!! Ninawapenda ninyi wawili, Kenya seems so wonderful
Kathleen Cook keep learning swahili who knows one day you'll visit kenya
It's nyinyi
Shukran nakupenda pia
Kenya is my favorite country in the world. I’m so glad you’re there!
As a Kenyan who has been following you for a while, I found this absolutely hilarious. Also, I think I've been to that hotel in Kakamega....
I love this so much- who else is obsessed with their content?
Studious Student meeee 🙌
Studious Student not that much though. It's joyful.
But holy shit Kenya is beautiful and everyone seems so kind!
favorite video yet... I’ve never seen a video with people from Africa where they r prosperous and happy🤔 makes me wonder why society is so afraid to show this on tv. Also Kenya has been added to my travel bucket list now...
Jocelyn Sands just watch Kenyan vloggers.
Krystal Midega any suggestions?
Jocelyn Sands watch some Nigerian videos, the cities there are insabe
This made me want to visit Kenya!
Come.. U'll love it😊😍.. Am Kenyan
They are so friendly there. I feel enlightened
RMK i wanna visit so bad now lol
Oh my gosh... KENYA 🇰🇪 I’m so excited, please come to Nigeria !!!!!
This is so crazy! I was watching your videos when I was in Kenya before I moved to France! There is so much to see in Kenya! I hope you guys have a great time and the people are amazing.
"mzungu move" I love u guys 😂 felt at home while watching this as I'm half Kenyan hehe
The old lady that hopped off the motorcycle with her cane 🤣🤣 “she’s not letting anything get in the way of her mobility” 🤣🤣🤣
Kenya people look absolutely amazing and so kind!! I want to visit so much when I’m older!
Hahah oh my god. Only you guys can make such mishaps look so good and entertaining :P
But on a serious note, it's amazing that you guys are not only doing what you love but also making a difference, whether it's by providing clean water or just inspiring people to shut up and go! It truly makes a difference to aspiring creators like myself.
Keep it up!
I love watching you both experience the culture shock. I moved to Nigeria from the UK some years ago, and things I'm now used to I remember how it was a shock to me when I first came. It's fun watching you two be "shocked" by it. Like how people buy things from the car window and the person who offered a piece of their mango. I also loved how you both confidently vlog on the streets. I wish I had that confidence, up until now I'm still nervous and worried about thieves and about being cheated at market stalls because the traders see my camera and all. You guys are really inspiring! I hope to be that confident!! ❤
JOMVRIE can relate. I moved back to Kenya from the US (left when I was a kid) I get culture shock everyday still and it's been a year lol. In good ways and bad ways.
KENYANPEBBLES yeahh! Don't worry you will get used to it! 😊
JOMVRIE lol thanks. Enjoy the privilege of being from 2 worlds. That's what I say. I'm sure that when you go to the UK for a visit you'll experience culture shock from things you were accustomed to. Keeps things interesting lol.
KENYANPEBBLES So truuue!!
you guys should go to Senegal, plus we speak french! 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳
aida girl YESS @Damonandjo come thruuuuu
It's one of my dreams to visits Sénégal one day
I've never been to any country in Africa, all the friendly people in your video really make me what to give it a go :)
Come to kenya 😊
welcome to kenya its a free and welcoming country
the fact that you guys are in kenya makes me soooooooo happy!!!
I actually started panicking when i heard the alarm...so triggering 😂
same omg
"Which country are you from?" "The United States." "Ewwgh."
talking about periods: in Argentina, women use pads more than tampons; and these ones don't come with an applicator. actually, i found out American women used that when in all the movies the tampons were huge and I didn't understand why. we just use the old and trusty index finger.
Tbh I’m afraid to tell people I’m from the U.S. when I go to a different country bc anytime I tell someone they have the same reaction as that woman who said “huh” 😂
Graci we are just too scared about you killing us and trying to steal the oil in the name of “freedom” lmaoo
If I ever visit other countries ima say I’m from Canada. I wish I was at least
ugh I just love you guys so much!!
TheSorryGirls i love to
YES NEW VIDEO! I’VE BEEN BINGE WATCHING OLD ONES FOR 5 DAYS
HanzQ omg same , found this channel couple of days ago and already began teaching myself French
anon yu henriksen oh my god! Same I discovered them 5 days ago.. and literally someone needs to turn my phone off for me to stop watching 😂
OMG, I want to see more of you two in Africa 😍
you guys are SO MUCH fun to watch! and Kenya looks amazing, I definitely want to go there now!
Jo - “Just a little spice”
Lady - *dumps the whole bottle on her mango*
I lived in Africa for two years. “A little spice” is almost NEVER really a little 😂
I clicked this video so fast as soon as I read Kenya.
Nah this brought so much joy in my heart. From you guys trying mango with powdered hot sauce which is - a staple in my country, to Damon and his sukuma wiki 😂😭 I’m not Kenyan but I do come from a Swahili speaking country ( Congo DRC! And Angola but they don’t speak Swahili much there) this video brought back bittersweet memories from my trip last year. Can’t wait to go Angola this August 👏🏾💖
Alice Plamedie girl I’m coming. Hit me up when we’re leaving 😎
I am from Angola too, im glad seeing people traveling to africa, i live in Spain, Africa steal you hard is magical hheheehhehe please next trip to Luanda or Benguela in Angola 🤣🤣😚
I'm Ghanaian and I honestly didn't know that hot sauce on mango was a thing. Hmmm so what's in the sauce, I wanna try.
I'm Kenyan!!! i'm so glad you guys had the local fruit & food, prob the best thing to do in the towns. Making me miss sukuma. Did you have samosas??
How do y’all handle sexuality while traveling, especially in countries where it could be very unsafe to disclose if you’re LGBTQ? ... Thanks!
In kenya its not a big deal
Yes it is
Njo it’s literally illegal but ok
@@san1883 ikr
We actually don't stress in knowing someone's sexuality
I about fell on the floor when Damon started to say we entered a Korean market 😂
I love how everyone is so open to talking to you guys ! And the person that offered you guys a piece of their mango 💕
Y'all went to Kenya. Love this channel
I live in Kenya... and this is so cool to see
This vlog is so good. Reall damon and jo
I know right! As opposed to their pesky doppelgänger’s
I’ve always wanted to go to Kenya, you guys make me REALLLYYY wannna go
christina stefansson (karibu Kenya)welcome to kenya
Wow! Everyone seems so friendly!
i love kenya sooo much. it’s always so fun to visit there.
I lived in West Africa for 9 months and people were very confused/concerned about me not being married. I even got a few proposals from locals! Haha. Good times.
How hard did you laugh at 3:54 tho...😂
⭐️Subscribe to our channel → goo.gl/H8i5DP
They both look like supermodels
You guys are literally my favourite youtubers are love how interested you are in other cultures and languages and it's actually insane how you can just pick up literally any language and sound like native speakers 😂❤
OMGOSH I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH😁😁😊😊😊 You're in my home country and I've been subscribed for like 4 years now... like please do a meet up or just meet me😂. You inspire me sooo freaking much💕💕 I love you guys!!
and it's so true, nairobi is where it's at!!! but you guys should've also visited mombasa, its on the coast of kenya and its BEAUTIFUL!!!! (and so much to do for tourists and full of rich culture and history)
Jo I'm surprised you don't have a cup. It's the best when traveling.
This channel is one of the best things that has ever happened to me!
guys you're KILLING THE GENERATION 😂
Literally right now I am in Mombasa Kenya and I am from America and I understand your struggle on a spiritual level love you guys
PLEASE do a video in Nairobi! AND A MEET UP!!!
You've got fans here in Kenya!!!
As a kenyan, you are guys amazing .,
I love the guy selling grapes outta his van
I met these two beauties in LA/Koreatown during an Uber-driving stint. THE sweetest humans. I’ve been watching ever since!! I’m living for this Kenya vlog 🙌🏽
Also,Damon being such a "Muzungu" cracked me up 🤣
Kenya has the most amazing kids.
My class sent letters to a school and foster home in Kenya. We received letters back and I was so amazed. One from Alfred, 14 years old. In his free time he visits the sick. And one from Claudia, 12 years old. She loves exploring and learning about Science. They are the nicest human beings. We talked about multiple things. The think that amazed me the most was that their English was written so neat and amazing, and it isn’t their first language.
Also, I love you guys :)
Hayley Marie That's awesome. Most Kenyans are multi lingual. People usually speak their tribal language, then Swahili the national language, and English the official language.
I love you guys! Your vlogs never ever disappoint! I would love to go to Kenya, everyone seems so nice and cool!
I can't believe y'all were in Kenya! So excited! Welcome :)
Where all my Kenyans at?? Like this comment ❤️❤️
Rissa98000000 Yezzir
💕
You kids are so much fun! No matter where you go you bring joy and enjoy doing so. Love your channel. ❤️😀
Yassssss🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪😍literally just saw kenya and clicked on the video😂😂😂
Can I just give a second of how good they look like HOW??? Kenyan locals look so nice though wish I could travel....just waiting for that moment. Love DamonandJo💜💜💜
The same thing happens here in Dominican Republic with tampons!! There are so few options! It's a cultural thing, a taboo. People think tampons take your virginity or hurts you inside (yup).
Kenyan here and I loooooved this. I wish I was able to meet you during your stay in Kenya. Maybe next time. Cheers
I like the “white coffee” part 😂😂
omg that alarm sound at the start actually gave me horrible flashbacks... i could feel the tiredness throughout my body
PLEEEASE COME TO DOMINICAN REPUBLIC 🇩🇴 I’ll be your host sista!
Ahhh so glad you guys enjoyed your stay!! Hope my birth country treated you well 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Damon: “ theres a whole aisle dedicated to vegetable oil” 😭😭😭
I'm a Kenyan-American & it was great seeing you guys travel to Kenya!! Hope you guys learned some Swahili
Amazing video! I’d love to visit Kenya
@5:45 yes! Its joy being in Africa just a place like Calloway County KY. Thanks for seeing that
love this video I'm so happy you guys are in Africa now you should also try going to Somalia it has the prettiest beaches!
DINA beautiful nature but quite Dangerous especially for these two
Yass Kenya!!! Bro I live there. Hope y’all enjoyed.
4:39 I was dead😂 I don't like saying I'm from the US when I go abroad either cause they give that same reaction and all I can do is say "yeahhh.....I know"
Really happy you finally got to my country. I'm a big fan. You two inspire me so much!! You even got me learning French again!! I wish i was there so i could meet you. I literally freaked when i first saw your Instagram posts about going to Kenya.
I am from Kenya so this just made me miss home so bad.
I miss these video. They got me through a tough time.
