That's good talk and I loved most of it. But however Lynn, just saying, if we start building malls, real estate in villages, wouldn't that be turning them into cities, of which we are running away from in the first place?! Perhaps we should just keep the authenticity of our villages preserve the original lifestyle. Otherwise, we won't have villages anymore!

I'm a Zambian nurse also working in the US. What Lynn in the US told you is true. I have been here for 34 years and in my 60s. You get trapped here and at the same time you get scared of returning home because you don't have anything back home. You entangle yourself of buying a house and paying for mortgage for the rest of your house. Even if you pay off your mortgage your property taxes tremendously go up and so you will never be free until you die. I have made up my mind to go back home now and live in the village. I have bought 11 acres of land about 45 minutes outside Lusaka the capital of Zambia. I have another one in another village also outside Lusaka. Although I come from the northern part of Zambia, one can buy land in any village and become part of that tribe and culture. We live where you want to live. You did well by not coming to US. So many Zambians are relocating back home. One of the friend just left last week. I'm also preparing of transportation back home. There is no life to enjoy here.

This is it,my canadian friends retired still struggle to pay property tax-this is one of the reasons I won’t buy property in Canada-Kenya has been calling since 2020 and I am now ready to pack and leave

Nothing beats Countryside life.... My friends thought I had signed a quick death warrant after I packed my bags and headed to my Hometown but 5-6 years into it,most of them are accusing me of being selfish whenever they pass by! They are angry that I didn't share the visions I had about the transition!! Am not good at farming so I ventured into tourism and so far no regrets.... Am strategically located along the tourism corridor of Bwindi impenetrable forest and the Western side of Queen Elizabeth national park in Western Uganda.... Thank you Lynn Ngugi for picking interest in Jael's interesting life.... Come visit Western Uganda, you will love it

Among the many gifts I received this year was the discovery of Jael's channel. It's so entertaining, therapeutic and educative. Keep it up Mama and I wish you nothing but the best.

She’s ahead of her time! Kudos to her 👏🏾👏🏾

“How do you show off what is your normal life?” Jael love that quote. You, live your life. You are very inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

I have watched most of Jael's videos. She is living the life of my dreams. I love a peaceful quiet life of the village but it has to be next to a developed town. I love what she does. So inspiring!❤

She has really inspired me even more, after living abroad for so long, village life has been beckoning to me for years now and looking forward to make it come true soon.

I live in the UK. Been here quite a number of years now. Jael’s life is the perfect life l have been dreaming of when I’m done with this UK life. You’ve given me even more motivation about realising my dream.

She's turned a village into runda!!! Kudos to her. Makes me inspired to go back to my village.

I agree with your approach. We should not show Africa as the land of poverty. Love from South africa. Our villages are home we should take care of them. I am a village girl myself.

Hi Lynn ,I am a South African and I have long subscribed to Jael & your channel.I love Kenya and watch a lot of content from Kenyan bloggers.The agriculture bloggers are also good.Keep up the good work and I enjoy watching your beautiful channel.All these has inspired me to plan a tour to Kenya next year.

Me too USA retire in the Village in Zim.

I'm a city girl at heart, born and bred. My parents moved to the City in the late 50s before we were born so all i knew was city life though they took us home once a year during school holidays. Now I'm married with grown kids and my own "dala", i want to make it a comfy place where we can all retreat occasionally to recover from city pressure. Though I'm not a farmer but my spouse loves farming so we balance 😂

Village life is bae. Been subscribed and following Jael and the more I watch her the more I long to go back to the village. From London straight to the village 😊. Abba, Your time is perfect.

I just love staying in the village I am retiring in two years I have build my retirement house in the village

I always tell my friends that Runda, Muthaiga or Karen don’t have to be in Nairobi. You can have all these in the village too. Always love your videos. Good job Jaber👏🏾👏🏾

Colonialism has messed up our minds and perspective on true living. The social conditioning is so deep many of us don't see 🤦‍♀️

Jael is really a vibe enjoying every hunk of life and quality time. this is what gives meaning to clean content...

I've watched Jael and love her life in the village. For the last couple of years I've been considering relocating to the village. You could say, 'I'm a village girl.' My husband is down for this as well. Unfortunately most people don't think village living can be fulfilling. Having watched Jael on her channel, my resolve was strengthened. Thank you Lynn for this episode.

I love Jael, her voice in her videos is so calming. And I envy her life so much, peaceful, fresh food, fresh air, lots of space, chirping birds and the best part, the feeling of grass on bare feet, oh my!! She is living the dream.😊

Watching this from a small village in Kwale county opportunities are hidden deep in the village...truth

This is exactly what i have been telling my family and friends, hopefully i will have this in feature.

With all the social media and Internet you can make it anywhere if you put your heart into. Village life is perfect these days. You can also order things online and get them delivered to your home safely. Be positive. The air is fresh.❤

This interview has been on my mind, months later. It plainly speaks about the promise of regions & places but it takes a special set of eyes to _really_ catch & internalize that

Urbanisation is just like migration in that they both have many advantages on a national level but it might be really detrimental for individuals. On individual level integration and coping in urban environment most likely leads to stress (environmentally, economically, socially) and in the end mental health issues. I love the way that she reflected on what is more important in life, at least for her. She is a hard worker though not materialistic and therefore considered what mattered most for her family. What an open strong woman! A pragmatic leader who makes sound life decisions. Yes, women can live on their own and we dont always need a man to live a fulfilling life. @lynn thank you for not pushing her or questioning her on her choice of living outside a marriage bond. Many of us live a celibate life by choice and our lives are a blast:)

Very beautiful, i love it. So peaceful one can feel it. Thanks Lynn for interviewing and Jael for sharing your story. Its very uplifting and motivating. Congratulations Jael

I am from Jael’s page and I hit the subscribe button so hard when you said we are looking for opportunities overseas when they are right there! So true. I am originally from Nigeria and came to America as a kid with my parents. The truth is they have sold us the western dream and made us think it’s the best thing in the world. I am glad Jael listened to her friend. My family in Nigeria would think you are an enemy of progress if you discouraged from coming to America. The truth is most of them are doing extremely well and coming out here will be a demotion to their lives, but they just want to go overseas. I came here as a kid and by the mercy of God after 30 years I am doing well, but I look forward to finding a peaceful place a the village. Also here in America, some of the wealthiest people live in the countryside AKA villages, but they own the stores and businesses in the cities. I visited my parents in the village when I was a kid and I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for bringing wichtcraft up, I thought it was only in my country. Most of my uncles ran from their mansions in the village because of that. I enjoyed this interview, thank you for promoting your sister. May God bless in all that you do.

Wow, Lynn finally meets Jael in the Village, you girls have made my weekend. Life is trully what you make it. I love this.

I love Jael's channel alot. My favorite is her cooking, her cows and pumpkin patch. I have tried to grow my pumpkin seeds in the city but not yet successful. Her unapologetic approach to living inspires me alot. I know am a village girl at heart ❤️

Most of us grew up happily in the village with plenty of playing space and numerous adventures, then all of a sudden the village becomes a bad place, this has to change.

I'm about to be inspired for the next one and half hours+. Must be niiiiice 😊. LNN to the world 🙌.

This is such a lovely video, bumped into on of Jael's channel and it was magnetic,so real and happy.Good job Lynn for highlighting Jael.

Oh wow. Lovely seeing Jael being interviewed by Lynn. Absolutely beautiful.

This is my little sister from another mother, osiepa nyar kabondo. So proud of her and always watch her vloggs. Very inspiring mamma ❤❤

One of the most inspirational video. Thank you for hosting such an incredible lady, courageous and with a good heart ❤️

I follow Jael on her you tube channel I love how she has made village life so enjoyable thanks Lynn for interviewing her greetings from Uganda.

Very informative story of a successful village farmer in Africa. Farmers are the people who are responsible collectively for feeding the world population I'm from the US and career opportunities are good for educated people especially in the technology field. The US is a good place to visit. However, the cost of living is not cheap especially in larger cities! Many Americans are struggling financially in the current economy of 2023 and homelessness is increasing in several major US cities. The American dream is becoming a nightmare for some people! I encourage anyone from Africa who are now living in the Diaspora to build homes and businesses back in Africa as soon as they can. Make sure to hire reputable builders and contractors so that you're not scammed or defrauded. Please make sure that you are also not scammed and taken advantage of by family members when you're building in Africa. I've heard so many stories about Africans in the Diaspora being defrauded by their own family members ehen building homes and businesses back home in Africa.

So encouraging Jael & Lynn. You are living my dream despite many traditional hindrances coming along widows having their own spaces.❤

I love the simplicity and passion in her. Many should learn about her

Jael, your friend Lynn in the States told you the absolute truth in black and white. As a Kenyan living in diaspora, I have come to learn that opportunities and "strong economies" don't equal to good quality of life. When you get to understand how the Western economies run you discern the fact that you are the donor, funding the economy. It never ends, never stops, you work like a slave over and over again, the cycle continues year in year out. Meanwhile, for various reasons, you're scared of returning home.

Love Jarl content I always look forward for her episodes and that’s the life I want

I don't know why most people don't like village life I enjoy this kind of life away from chaos and waking up to peaceful life

I love you both ladies.jael is living my dream life❤ ,I follow your content religiously

Such a great and peaceful life. Jael, that is a wonderful "village " property that beats living in any apartment in any city. I think many people are "stuck" in cities because they have jobs. Your advice to people to just "start" their dream is a powerful one. Many are afraid a of failure and so stay in their comfort zones. The thing I like most about your life is the ability to grow your own healthy food and your appreciation of nature (the birds, plant life ) and the absence of unwanted human noise. Your friend in Canada is right. Property taxes in good neighborhoods (depending on the state) in the US can run anywhere between $5k - $10k). Canada must be the same. Great interview Lynn, as usual.

Awesome. Her vlogs are so therapeutic. Great inspiration 😊

It's actually encouraging episode that a little effort brings rewards

My sweetheart Jael. I'm happy to see you growing. You are blessed 🙏

Thank you Jael for motivating me,coz soon i will move back to the village and do my stuff there.Lynn be blessed for the good job you are doing.
