Am not a Kenyan but I feel like one.... Love your videos, they remind me on my visits to Nairobi, one of the most beautiful places on Earth. I've seen many parts of Nrb, and there's always a conclusion in my head, why such a large city can't build a public transportation system based on subways, trains, trams, public buses owned by the City Government etc. Because it's the most important thing for a big city. Also, sidewalks, cycling tracks, underground cables .... All the best from EU

[@AfrikanTraveller]

Thank you so much for always watching my videos 😊💕💕

[@natureworld295]

They've started building sidewalks and cycling lanes hope the saw this 😁😁 Though state owned buses have been existing ever since , though not BRT . THERE IS AN UPCOMING EXPRESSWAY SET TO BE AFRICA'S BEST

[@ivajur]

@@natureworld295 yes I saw it. Keep up the good job and tc!

[@ngarumurray]

Yes yes yes to all these recommendations. I am grateful more Nairobians are demanding more walkable areas in Nairobi. In fact in CBD around the I&M bank they have replaced a lot of parking space for pedestrian pathways and built walkways between roads

[@benjaminsmith2287]

Thank you. Looks good. The Africa so many people don't see. Thanks for bringing it to us.

[@AfrikanTraveller]

Thank you Benjamin.

[@the_kenyan_villager254]

One thing I have learned is that in this life you can choose to wear a victim mentality and complain about everything and bad governance or you can choose to get up go out start somewhere and hustle make your life easier, life is short to wait for delivery at your door step. I have a friend who makes 1500 just from selling porridge, you complain while others are buying homes cars going for holiday in Europe.. Hii life sio rehearsal if no one is making it happen for you swallow your pride make it happen for yourself...those mkokoteni guys in Nairobi cbd one of the told me he make 2k to 3k a day..

[@AfrikanTraveller]

Very well said👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

[@rubysailor9186]

Josephine kagali, kenyans have it good but they don't see it. I wish the citizens would change their attitude and keep the city clean, have courtesy particularly on the roads. Our politicians are corrupt but if wananchi did their small part,it would make a difference.

[@delirous8]

@@rubysailor9186 Keeping the city clean is important for Public Health reasons. Take pride in your country and invest in green space. Creating green space can help improve people's moods and mental healths. Why do you think the biggest cities in the world like London, NYC, Tokyo have parks. Educate the people in public health and invest in your people. Change does not happen from the outside it happens within and that includes educating the people regardless of their social class and providing them work.

[@slytheron]

I was born and raised in this country and yet every time I go there, it feels like I'm dreaming. Kenya just doesn't feel real to me. Every time I leave it feels like I just woke up. It's very strange.

[@BensonNyasae]

Nairobi before the express way. It looked so beautiful, green and uncrowded.

[@afiyakemarafa1997]

I loooooooooooooooooove it. I had awful tummy cramps, but booom!!!! Video made me arise from the couch with my little haggard self lol🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭 Kenya is so picturesque, so gorgeous, so alluring and it looks as if it is a quiet area. I don't like noise😍😍😍🖤🖤✌🏿✌🏿 May you have immortality so you can show us all of Kenya, blessed one. Big up. P. S: You remind me to research about the days of colonialism in Kenya. I was curious. I was Googling photos of Kenya (as usual) and I saw some Colonial structured/built homes/apartment there.

[@AfrikanTraveller]

Thank you and so sorry for the tummy cramps😊. My work will be immortal as future generations will always want to know how the country was years back... 🙏🙏

Nairobi suburbs developing nicely. Like the lots of greenery. Only gripe is it would be great if they could put properly painted street lines to separate traffic and stopping points.

[@AfrikanTraveller]

Road markings also make the road look much better.

[@TonnyOkello]

Nairobi is looking great. They need to properly mark the roads and make provisions for pedestrians ( most streets are lacking sidewalks/pavement)

[@AfrikanTraveller]

True, road markings will make the place more beautiful

[@damarisambia1154]

It's now law for walk ways to be made. Like riara Road they made walk ways sometime last year. Most areas I see they have or are being made. The whole of ngong Road on both sides they are making beautiful walk ways including provision for cyclist.

[@Tugalukeni]

They should use colourful Paver's for the pavements/walkways.

[@tabithamwaura8585]

Lovely and we should plant more trees

[@safari2545]

[@82phalanX]

If you've played Real Time Strategy games from Empire Earth, Simcity, Ceasar etc, you will note that when you explore more of the map, you open up new areas. I would like to encourage you to tour & film upcoming areas in Kitengela, Ngong (a new road is being built to Suswa), Kiambu area, the collection of upcoming neighbourhoods around Tatu city such as River run, Zaria village, amani ridge and many others. It'll give you a sense of the growth trajectory of what may shape up to be a metropolis in the years ahead..
