I did the same thing at 19, I left America and it was the best decision of my life. I was raised in the projects in the South Bronx and college was my escape from that. I escaped even further by doing what I thought would be a year abroad, having no concept of a life outside of America. I breathed freely for the first time in my life and ended up staying indefinitely. You are a remarkable young man knowing what you want. You are so ahead of your years in wisdom. Africa is amazing and I wish younger black people in the US could think clearly like you. The confusion in America keeps our people from seeing the infinite possibilities of their lives. I'm super proud of you and I will be sending my younger cousins to your channel.
Thank you for the support. I appreciate you sharing some background as well✊🏾 😁💛
I couldn’t find content on your site mulato!
Yes, you act like you are Tanzanian! As a Tanzanian, I’m proud of you.
Asante sana 🙏🏽
You are such a Lovely Gentleman with a good heart. Maybe when I get to Nigeria and spend a long time , I would like to invite you to Nigeria.
Stay single and focus on whatever business endeavor you intend to get into . I send you my Blessings.
Notice how he acknowledged everyone he met, very respectful young man and has moved to the right place for his soul
Mark that's your home it's natural for every African when they come back they feel that way of belonging. Africa is in your spirit. Well done son. Am so proud of you.
"As humans we need to be flexible",great advice son. I needed to hear this x
Thank you for watching 💛
WOW so MATURE for his age! 👍🏾
Stop planning, start doing. Love it
Tell the world how happy we are, tell them how peaceful we are, tell them we are moving forward and we never stop. Africans hero's are very proud of you young bro, keep it up. 🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿 As (Tanzania)Africans we love you and we are not happy for sufferings (discrimination, killings ) you are facing... 🇹🇿🇹🇿
Thank you. The bridge between our communities are being built and its soo exiting 💛💛💛
You are spot on Mark about supporting each other. Forget the selfishness of the west mindset. We must liberate ourselves from mental slavery.
Ok mark may god continue to protect provide and bless you
Lots of wisdom in this video!! I knew it, ...but I needed to hear it again today. I'm so sad about Magufuli's departure from this realm.
He will be missed deeply by many.
@@markmeetsafrica 1000%...Lets see what the future holds with the new leadership.
RIP to Dr John Pombe Magufuli may his legacy live on 🙏🏾🕊🇹🇿
🙏🏽
Well versed...
Well said....
I commend you for your courage..
Kiswahili chako kizuri. You've learned so fast to speak kiswahili. Well done

Just now seeing this one. Sharing with young and old. Thank you Old Soul.
AWWWW 😊Its “Asante mwanangu “ = “thanks son “by the woman for me
You are so mature and wise for 20. Nice and encouraging video. Baby at the end.......precious 💕
you are wise beyond your years and I'm sure I've said that before ... I love my neighborhood it's loud and lively people everywhere from sun up until late late at night (traffic, music, children, and vendors) nonstop. I really don't feel like a stranger either, as soon as one of the friendly people find out someone tried to price gouge me, they're like come on lets go check it out. my Swahili is coming along too! Asante sana for another great video Kaka!
Karibu sana na Asante wewe Dada. I am exited for the coming times where our communities unite and live with joy and amongst each other. I am happy to see people like yourself pioneering this future.
RESPECT TO YOU!!! U're a EAGLE!

Such a cute baby!!! Mark, it was so sad to hear of the death of Tanzania's President.

I was born in Africa and this guy inspires me to go back home. Getting some stuffs ready and then I will be headed that way.
Mark damu yako ni Tanzania karibu sana nyumbani 🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿
You’re 20 and so wise. I hope you continue to have a positive outlook on life.
Never Stop doing what you are doing now! God bless everything you do 🙂
Absolutely awesome talking point. Let it go!
Respect young man. Your wisdom is beyond your age. Keep doing you.
Good job young man, your Swahili is great considering the amount of time you’ve been out there.
Be Blessed & Welcome to East Africa...ALLAH is L♡ve a lot
was hoping the trickle becomes a flood - im surprised all of South Side hasn't moved to Tanzania or Ghana yet
I just found your channel, and I very impressed. As a young man, you are wise beyond your years!!!
I'm glad you are adapting.You are 20 and you have wisdom.life here is different in Africa,we still have along way to go,but atleast we are happy with the little we have.
Very inspiring messages.
You did the right thing by going to Africa. You will be a great asset to Tanzania. Africa needs more Black American men to develop the continent.
Mark you remind me of a black Mr. Rogers. You probably dont know who he is because he may have been before your time. But it's a great compliment. Just a great, soft natured human being
Thank you for the compliment ☺ 😁
G morning, very informative love it, thanks.
Goodmorning, thank you😁
This is soooo beautiful
Your spirit is beautiful....so proud of your drive....pray many blessings and much success for you and your crew in Jesus Name...Dear Lord guide, protect and protect them always in Jesus Name....
Luv your videos Mark on another note you remind me of a young Malcom X❤️
Sweetie when you help people find places or provide any other services you need to charge them. Your time is valuable and remember nothing in life is for free.
You make a good point. Thank you for the advice. In the future, I will hopefully offer a more complete service for Diaspora to feel fully comfortable coming home.
Team aquarius. Super inspiring, love it here♒️❤️
❤You are truly a DOPE young king. I am truly inspired by you and TIFFANY 🤔her last name escapes me at the moment...but she's also in Tanzania keep going!! We Are the New Ancestors it's Time to Act Accordingly. All Praises to the Most High!! ❤
Thank you 🙌🏾💛🙏🏽😆
@@markmeetsafrica you are welcome and thank you! Her name is @tiffanybanner.😁
I watched you on go black to Africa channel. I'm a new fan. I learned a lot from you. I'm not as courageous as you even to go back to my country after living in the US for 20 years. But Its time to do my responsibilities. Your tips are very helpful on how to adapt even for me. Thank you!
I’m so inspired by your advice and I will share
Thank you for watching, and for the support 🙏
Welcome home boy
Thank you😄
That’s saying is adorable but not everybody can do what you can do because people circumstances are different and there’s a lot of things that hold people back from coming back home
Words of wisdom Bro. much respect from Jamaica
I had to Subscribe after listening/watching this video. God Bless Bro.
Thank you💛💛💛💛💛
Hello Mark. Thank you for this channel. I discovered you in the video with @GoBlack2Africa (which was excellent). Your wisdom is such a gift and blessing to the community. I will be subscribing and probably emailing you (per your remarks) in the future as we pursue our next dream. All the best to you.
Thank you. I will look forward to it 😊
"Nothing to it, but to do it." Such good truth. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. God bless you greatly.💛💛💛💛💛
Thank you for watching 😆
I went to Tanzania in 1991. I was about 25 and as soon as I step off the plane I felt like I came home. I was born in Jamaica and moved to Canada when I was 12. I want to live in Tanzania. I’m getting more and more depressed.
Pole that you are not as happy as you could be. Its good that you see this and now you must take steps to breath joy back into your life. Sometimes you need to do something out there to get out of a rut
Although widely known those words need to be repeated aloud & put in practice🙅🏿♂️ I cant commend U enough for makin the journey. I’ve dreamed of doin it for many years and I’m finally my goals is coming into alignment with my life at 48🙅🏿♂️ So sorry to hear about the President Magufuli🕊🙏🏿🕊 Stay Cool👍🏿

WOW! I too had a Degree in Procrastinology! A profession in which I was quite proficient! But later it became worth-less than the paper it's printed on when it was succeeded by my Degree in 👉Precrastinology👈😎
😆
I wonder how much to rent a place and how much to rent a store front
I'm happy I came across your channel, you look just like my nephew's 😀😀 I grew up in Dar es salaam (SINZA) AREA.. I'm glad you are able to show and teach the african american community to be more open minded and not too uptight..I live in dallas Texas, I'm coming out there this summer, check me out on facebook..I got by KIBABU MADEVU..I gotta invite you to my home for GOAT 🐐 BBQ 😀😀😀..nice video
Thank you. Also I would love that😋😋😋💛
Send me a request on facebook..Kibabu madevu
|| YOUR NEW SUBSCRIBER YOUNG 👑 KING, KEEP IT UP! WATCH FROM ENGLAND BIRMINGHAM||
@Takka bro I'm in Leicester city and I'm Tanzanian let us keep intouch each other and we can do business in TANZANIA one love King
Am watching from Jamaica I love your videos, how can I learn the language cause I would love to live in africa
I would say the best thing to do is speak with and interact with locals daily. Surround yourself with only swahili and mabey a friend to translate some things. In addition, you should also find a dedicated teacher (something I still need to work on)
@@markmeetsafrica thank you so much am from Jamaica 🇯🇲
This is a VERY controversial point, what does it ACTUALLY take to get us to leave the coloniser’s lands and go to start something new in Afrika…?
People make it sound so simple to just get up and go the motherland… it took me the best part of 10-15 years to go and get started in Tanzania… and I was born in Malawi before moving to UK as a child… Afrika has always been my “Homeland” 🤷🏽♂️
Someone who is of Afrikan descent and was born outside of Afrika, will find it very difficult to get their finances together to move to Afrika following the Pan Afrikan dream…
Thanks for that inspiration 🥰🥰
Thank you for watching 😊😊
Hey Mark. My husband and I decided to make Tazania our home
Karibu Tanzania 🇹🇿. ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Right on right on
Love your content Mark. I'm a las vegan and feel pride for my city watching you adventure.
I am an instant fan. Hit me up if you need a las vegas buffet or some lake mead water
Thank you💛 also Lol ill take it, if there is any of that lake water left😆 I can't say those buffets aren't on my mind sometimes either
Mambo,
Great wisdom Mark- be well Kaka!
Asante 💛
