I like the behaviour of your kids when you visit places,down to earth and always curious to know, just like their father George.

Makenze you are at it again. Taking me down memory lane. When at Liam's age in the 60s we used to visit my grandparents with dear mum now heading 90s. . These were moments I still cherish more so the hospitality of the elderly. We can't outdo them . George and mekenze you will be repaid this in old age.

[@office-gardener]

Love ❤️ I'm kikuyu and I'm appreciative of how close our cultures are. We are all one big bantu family. Also married to a Minnesotan so I can relate to your family.

What more can one ask for. Visit grandparents, one with nature, just being free to top it up you get to see an elephant a few feet from you.. a mini safari. I mean when does this really happen. Your kids honestly will remember these moments. Whilst Kids in USA, schools have become danger zones having to worry about shootings and then go home and get caged in the house.

[@triptisingh4188]

Great video! Love your family. Your kids are so polite and they’re being raised in a great environment. Todays kids are seldom seen without gadgets in their free time. It was nice to see kids playing in nature in sheer abandonment. Reminds me of my childhood. ❤

George in his element.. happy in his happy place. Great to share with his family, Cucu has such good vibes, breaking into song & dance. Must be a great feeling to have someone so happy to see you. Elephants on the roadside, only in Kenya... nature at its best... Reminds me of the sights in Tsavo... 😊.

You know that is a great job you are doing, and your love story paints a beautiful picture wich says: it don't matter how poor you are but if you are a normal person, invest all your energies and if needs be money on a life you would like to live in the future.🔥💞🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✌🏽

The stinging hairs in the nettle creates numbness on the skin(after the stinging and itching🔥 of course). It is used for ANESTHESIA among the Kalenjin whilst performing certain surgeries. It numbs the pain🔥

[@daviddavis7959]

George reminds me of this Nigerian vloger visiting Kenya. he went to Nomads in Jadini and they had Mukimo. He tried it and Man when he ate it he said it was his best food ever in Kenya and even Nigeria. And if you know Nigerians, they are very particular of their foods and to say that Mukimo he ate is the best food ever that speaks volumes. he kept saying why Kenyans have been hiding Mukimo from him. he said he will learn how to cook it before he leaves for Nigeria.

[@mimi-dq3xc]

Would have loved to see that

[@jamesmungai3092]

Very nice one. Nice to see the kids relax and play. That Elephant on the way home was something. We get so excited to see a deer anywhere on the way but to meet an Elephant like that is a big bonus.

I Hello beautiful sister & brother. Great video ... up close with the graceful elephant in beautiful nature. One question - why are chickens so cramped up in small enclosures? The chickens are supposed to be free to roam ... after all, it is the village. Could you try to have bigger enclosures if you cannot let them roam freely?
