The thing is people are lining up to work for those jobs that pay 1500. If you don’t want it, next one. So either get a better job or move out which most people can’t do.
Could you do a cost-of-living comparison between the UK and Tanzania, as I’m leaving the UK next year after I’ve sold my house and Africa sounds like a bloody good option.
You our exchange rate is quite different our 3k in Kenya is their 60 k Tz shilling us we are much ahead of them can't compare Nairobi and zanzibar compare mombasa n mombasa that's coast but av liked your videos n subscribed to your channel n
Why dont you learn Kiswahili??? It ridiculous to expect people to understand a foreign language when you can barely speak their language! LEARN KISWAHILI PERIOD!!!!
Because you speak English you expect anyone to speak your language? Tanzanians are proudly Swahili speakers and they don't need to accommodate the language of a visitor. Tuondelee usenge wako hapa mavi wewe. Muone mimeno kama mamba
That language part....you should make an effort to speak swahili when you're in E.Africa, we are proud of our culture. You here a good English in Nairobi because they still entertain colonial mentality. I think the swahili is too bad in London as English is in Dar es salaam.
Do you mean the westin at Asoke? Cause thats not a good comparison there mate it's a little further than just around the corner and their rooms a much more expensive closer to 4000 baht and up.
Poor and rich never live together in the whole world.but you speak as if Uganda's you live together but there this ppl who don't want to hear ppl talking good about my beautiful great NATION under God after all whether Rich or poor we belong to God who created us with his image and we need oneantherlove you good Africans
He’s has no clue what he’s talking about architects make a lot of money how do you think the Eiffel tower was designed it was by an architect in now they have a bunch of money!!
That is a nightmare, it happened to friends of mine. They run a practice in Edinburgh and their insta was stolen (let’s call it what it is) in the end they had to set up a new account
We like kiswahili because dar Salam is Tanzania and Tanzania national🇹🇿 language is kiswahili so we are proud of this language no English if you need come in dar Salam Tanzania is better you speak kiswahili because people of Tanzania we speak kiswahili this is not Europe,🇪🇺 Uk this is kiswahili country you are welcome Again dar Salam
😂😂..Us Africans can tell our differences,because there is no difference between Dar and Nai brothers..we have more important issues than that point of your view..UK you have more problems than us..but you puppets forcing us to have differences so that we become weak..those vibes,skyscrapers gotten Nairobi brothers no where,compared to culture,unity and happy life compared to Europe.all this comparisons are shit stuffs..
i have been with Kenyans at work but they dont perform but they talk too much to be seen and we tanzanians we dont like to compare ourselves with others because we believe much on our selves go to Kenyans you will find most of Kenyans like to compare themselves with others do you know why most of Kenyans they dont blv themselves so they want to know what is strength of others so that they can check their side
the problem is we tanzanians we dont talk too much like people from Kenya and one more thing is we dont take much time and energy to brand ourselves we normally say as long as you perform you will be seen quite different from people from Kenya as you have to brand your self so much to be seen
