I really appreciate your super support 🙏🏾

Watching from Switzerland. I can see quite a few changes. I used to live in Kileleshwa until 2015 and passed all those neighbourhoods daily, Lavington, Kilimani, Hurlingham etc. Nairobi in general is going through some impressive transformations. Yes, let the new generation get to the forefront. The only way is forwards.

Great video of a plush neighbourhood. Thank you, from Ireland.

[@martinkaranja4208]

Wow, spectacular growth and development!!

[@mtuflani]

I love it when Nairobi is green.

Wow! I used to live here before relocating. We lived right by Chalbi drive. I'm shocked to see all the apartments and larger business buildings within the area. Lavington was such a suburb lavish area at my time. Quiet and not as busy as this at all. There were no apartments, (at all) the Jaffery sports club had just being constructed and it was barely operational, I think it started off as a golf club (not sure we were younger) our "hung out" spot was Lavington Green shopping center(now a mall and also shocking) and it had our favorite bakery. For swimming we went to Parklands Sports club for free for dad had a membership there. Younger school years, I went to Mullberry House School which was more about arts and crafts, games, learning one self, being taught to read and write. Factors that I teach my kids now for no child needs to be stressed out reading calculus in 1st grade. It was such a great school. Every friday we baked a ginger bread man. We would walk to Lavington Church every Sunday - not sure if its still there or St. Marys church (depending on how idle we wanted to be). I miss Lavington Green shopping center. It had beautiful jacaranda trees. When they blossomed, we would always try and catch the falling flowers in the soft wind. I miss the man that used to have a sweet stand right there too. He was a life Saviour. I miss the school busses picking us up. We all went to different schools (literally all my 5 siblings and I all went to different schools - still not sure why) but anyway the only busses that I ever saw coming to pick other school kids (siblings, neighborhood friends, other kids i didn't know) from the Lavington shopping center were Braeburn School, Brookhouse, St. Austins, Makini School, St. Marys, Kilimani Junior Academy, Braeside School, International School of Kenya, and St. Christophers (There may have been a few more but I remember these ones specifically for I and my siblings / friends boarded them at different times). Such a nostalgic memory. I had the best childhood. I thank Kenya for providing such a beautiful environment for that. Oh and Sarit Center. It was just for books and a few other dull shopping stores. I hear they now have a whole mall with eateries. I'm still shocked at the housing situation though. Our old house had 2-3 or more acres of land in just one house. All the gated community houses in that area had about the same amount of land for we would go into each other's houses to play. The only house we didn't ever go to was a military house that was right opposite ours lol. The head of the military lived there. He always had real soldiers manning the home at all times and all we ever saw were military vehicles going in and out of there. We were scared for they always had huge guns strapped on them. Oh well. I miss that life and should write a book about this beautiful place and all the experiences it had to offer.

Government should pave sidewalks

[@mentuhotepii2641]

The government officials are busy stealing Tax money for paving sidewalks and using the stolen money to buy houses in Dubai!

[@worldknowledge254]

You've earned yourself a new subscriber!... I've watched several videos from your channel and it's worth following koz you're helping me travel while at home...also the one from Mombasa was lovely❤

[@stephenjones1558]

Exquisite. I love it. Thanks for sharing

[@mozvidz]

Great content. Just one thing, your camera is mostly facing one direction and being a channel for scenic views I think at your 50K subs point you need to get an Insta-360 camera. That way, you can rotate the view during editing to show the best angle of the location you were at at that time.

[@dolphine254]

Great idea...let's subscribe, like and share #roadto50k

[@binnyosh5630]

Awesome video. There's a lot of stuff going on on the roadside. Also, what happened to paving the sidewalks in Nairobi. It seems like all that stopped since the elections.

[@StephenEtyang-k9n]

Is Lavington in Westlands subcounty or Dagoretti North????

[@freedomm]

Two points: Kileleshwa starts at Gitanga Road, that's why you see high rises suddenly pop up. You can't build a high rise in Lavington. And Yaya Centre is in Hurlingham, not Kilimani.

[@OpinionatedNomadChannel]

It's in Kilimani 😂

[@hakeemahmed2874]

He's right Yaya center is in Hurlingham, though at far point abit

[@NoorAli-vj4gn]

Lavington should be protected from turning into another kileleshwa

[@freedomm]

@@NoorAli-vj4gn You can't build an apartment block in Lavington proper. It's just the adjacent unprotected areas that have hijacked the Lavington name to boost property prices that are making it look like it's allowed. But they're not really Lavington.

[@RepentKenya2005]

Kilimani is doing too much with the highrises...😃

[@swalehelshabiby5915]

The problem Nairobi there are not good sidewalk.

[@jamesmaina7004]

The US has some of the best walkways but you rarely see anyone use them,,, neighborhoods with no jaywalkers!

[@swalehelshabiby5915]

@jamesmaina7004 so you mean side walk is of no use and in Kenya many walk on foot.

[@jamesmaina7004]

@@swalehelshabiby5915 don't get me wrong,,,,they are most required in Kenya since most of the ppl don't own no cars,,, l'm sure walkways are budgeted for at the time of conception only to be ommitted at execution....

[@kifropu]

Awesome job! I love your content of showcasing the city of Nairobi and it's neighborhoods. I surely do miss it! Would you ever consider having the videos without the music, but just the natural sounds of the city? I find that immersive, as if I were there.

[@dolphine254]

Thanks for your feedback...sure most of my videos are raw

[@kifropu]

@@dolphine254 in that case I'll make sure to watch all of them!! Thank you 🙏😊

[@CuriousConnoisseurs]

What i noticed when i watched Videos like this about LAGOS is that in Nairobi there are much more newer cars while in lagos there are really so many cars which almost fall appart, so there seem to be less poverty in kenya then it is in nigeria.

[@AlfanAbdul]

Kenya has a policy of not importing cars and viehecles not older than 3yrs since manufacturing time. hence cutting down older viehecles on Kenyan roads.

[@AlfanAbdul]

w. Africa n other African countries needs to invest on institutional policies frameworks like Kenya inorder to take their countries development forward rather than Stacking for decades.

Poor orientation. Lavington Begins at James Gichuru Rd and ends at Gitanga Rd. Name the streets and the areas as you drive through. Also, show us more of the scenery i.e 360°. Otherwise, thanks for the effort. 🙂
