This is Why Kenya is Awesome 🇰🇪 vA 76

I ride from Isiolo to Nanyuki, at the foot of Mount Kenya, in Africa. The day is really hard, with a monumental 45 kilometers long climb to start the day. On the way, I meet several fantastic Kenyan people. Kenya is definitely an awesome country to visit.

I have a Dutch guy whom i met in Netherlands 6 years ago , we went to Kenya several times, Mombasa, Nakuru , Nanyuki and Eldoret. He fell in love with Nanyuki and Nakuru so in two years we are planning to relocate either to Nanyuki or Nakuru., i cant wait to be back in Kenya for good.

[@rang3688]

Another wonderful video. However, there are a few points that require clarification. Firstly, it's important to note that Khat is not illegal to chew in Kenya 🇰🇪; the individuals in the video may simply be camera-shy. Secondly, when traveling between Isiolo and Nanyuki, the first Bantu group you will encounter is the Ameru. Meru County is not only renowned for the best Khat but also serves as the agricultural hub of Kenya. The Ameru people are the most distant Bantu group in Africa, closely related to the Kikuyus, but distinct from them. Additionally, it's worth mentioning that a part of Nanyuki falls within Meru County, and two-thirds of Mount Kenya is situated on the Ameru side.

[@KinoYves]

Thanks for the explanation

[@stephenngethe4886]

​@@KinoYves. The junction that passed when entering meru nanyuki highway is called subuiga. Those dormant volcanic hills in subuiga are breathtaking

[@Motivationworldwise-ec4hr]

good explanation, love it

[@mikedelta2895]

What do you mean by distant Bantu. Bantu are all over Kenya. Go to western Kenya . Kisiis are all Bantus. Go to Congo, even south Africa.

[@rang3688]

@@mikedelta2895 Within the community you have mentioned radius, who surrounds them to the North, South, East, and West, excluding fellow Bantu? Meru shares only its southern border with Bantus, while Nilotic Samburu is to the West, and Cushitic Somali and Borona are to the North and North East respectively, placing Meru as the northernmost Bantu.

[@ailajibo8436]

Thank you Kino for your very kind words about Kenya and its people. Just a correction, when you drive out of Isiolo and even actually within Isiolo, the majority of the people are Borana and other cushites followed by the Meru. So you were referring to the Meru and you thought its the Kikuyu, while the Kikuyu are also there but a minority in that part you were driving through. Only when you reach Nanyuki is when the number of the Kikuyu drastically increases

Kenya is Awesome❤. Kenyans we are so friendly to visitors especially from Europe, but I don't know why europeans don't treat us the same way when we visit their country. sometimes the world becomes unfair to us when racism comes onboard.😢. I am glad @Kino Yves is able to share this with the whole world and show the rest of europe how friendly and loving human beings we are. We need to end racism in the modern world. #Respect.

[@Ukversuskenya]

Then it's good to know that and don't hate anyone but also stop treating them like they're better than you. Sometimes, I think it's not liking mzungu..it's more of seeing them like the superior race. Because the same Africans will treat their own like rubbish. How about appreciate your people more and have self-worth.

[@michaelb4290]

We love Zambians, Rwandese, Ugandans, etc, even Nigerians. Kenyans are friendly to all visitors, not just wazungu. We even like Tanzanians although they hate us for reasons which are not obvious to many Kenyans. In Nairobi, I have met many Africans who love Kenya because of the warmth and welcoming attitude we have towards them. Give us some credit, that we are hospitable and friendly hosts.

Between Isiolo and Nanyuki is mostly Meru land. They are also Bantu speaking. But the area between Timau, Nanyuki and Naro Moru was originally Maasai, then expelled by the British, and then Kikuyu farm workers brought in, who are now majority in Nanyuki. The white guy at Kisima is a local farmer and descendant of the British landowners.

In your case Yves you're moving, so they were telling you to stop so that they can see your trike. Safe journey and remember as you go towards Nairobi, there will more cars on the road and public vehicles called 'matatu'.
