Its been a minute! Meet my daughter! --- Join me as I share the experience of the African American living in Africa, along with my own in the African nation of Namibia. Website: www.aainafrica.com Instagram & Twitter: @aainafrica
Just got this notification and Sooo excited to see you back on RU-vid. You are the pioneer and the OG!! You started the movement of documenting your life in Africa. Now, so many people have followed your footsteps. Welcome back!!!
She opened our eyes and the first among us take a ‘leap of faith’ repatriating to Namibia 🇳🇦 So she get ‘kudos’ as a tread setter and in my book, the real US ambassador to Namibia 🙏🔥👍
You are an amazing mother who allowed your daughter to express herself while you were speaking. This showed her how valuable her thoughts and opinions are to you, and you did not interrupt or dismiss her. Keep up the great work!
Omg I had to rub my eyes to make sure I wasn't hallucinating I even did a double take at the notification🥹 Hey don't worry about it, it's alright we all parents, we totally understand thanx for this pleasant surprise totally made my day 🥰💐👩🏾🍼❤️🌍...
What a beautiful baby girl! She favors your son. I dont have any children but I can try to understand what its like. Take care of yourself mentally and physically.
Congrats! I often see Black folks saying they are 'getting ready for war' and get stocked up in guns and food in USA when what they should be doing to win this 'war' is having more kids and moving to Africa! Build up our families, build our own countries, take care of business, and the 'war' will be easy. It's a numbers game
Always a pleasure to see a post from you. You were and will always be the original RU-vidr in Africa and you have always kept it so humble and not about ego or money making. So happy to have you back.
I have missed your uploads!!! I was waiting patiently... I refused to unsubscribe!! LOL 😇 I started watching your channel years ago and was inspired because I felt a longing in my spirit to travel Africa and reconnect to my roots... not to mention that we both have backgrounds in communication and teaching. I started my Africa travel journey back in 2020 and have also shared my journey on RU-vid. I am currently in Namibia near the coast and thought about you when I was in Windhoek. You are an amazing woman in the diaspora and I am so extremely happy for you! ☺Thank you for being the authentic and beautiful soul that you are. 🙏 Peace and Blessings❤💫
Same! I refused to unsubscribe. Happy to see a new post and the new addition to your family 🤎🤎♥️ I made it to Africa for the first time last summer and Namibia was my first stop in big part because of you. 🤗 Hope to make it back soon!
Welcome back! Found your page 3 years ago. I actually did a search a couple weeks ago, wondering what happened and hoping you were doing well. If you can’t tell from the comment section, you’re loved here in America. Wishing you the best.
It's so great to see you on RU-vid again! You are the OG of this part of YT so we give you grace for focusing on your mothering duties. Congrats on being a mom again to what seems like a very sassy daughter. Lol. But also congrats for having a son that is caring, supportive, and serves that balance of a mild-mannered big bro. You're truly blessed.
OMG!!!! I was worried, you were gone forever, so happy you're back!!! We can compare our extreme sickness with both of my children as well. I was hospitalized with both pregnancies, had to be put on IV's for nurishment, the second being my worst!!! I thought I was the only person with that experience. Thankfully we're both alive to enjoy our family!!! I feel that it was a miracle, not being able to hold even water down. Welcome back and congratulations!!!
Yes omg! The extreme sickness is NO JOKE! I feel the same - like I was literally barely able to sip water. Have no idea how my body sustained a pregnancy on nothing. But yes, we survived!! Thanks so much for the comment and for watching!
Congratulations, so happy for you. I had hyperemesis with my 7 year old and was vomiting 10 times a day from 8 weeks to 7 months. Glad the OG is making a comeback!!!
Thank you and omg, someone who understands how awful and debilitating hyperemesis is!!! It's traumatizing and the reason I won't have anymore pregnancies 😫But we survived! 💓
@AfroAmericaninAfrica OMG, your whole life stops. That's why I waited 4 years to try for another. I had PTSD so badly from that depressing and isolating experience 😪 My 2nd pregnancy only lasted 3 months, but it was more like motion sickness, so as long as I stayed in bed, I didn't vomit. It wasn't good for my job or taking care of my daughter, though. Thankfully, I live in Senegal now and can afford to be sick and hire help the next time around. I just have to plan to not be able to do much, so I'm trying to enjoy life as much as possible before conceiving one more time 🤞🏾
I was in disbelief when I got your notification . But nevertheless I am thrilled to be seeing a video from you again . Congratulations on your new family member. ❤
Welcome back! We have missed you, but fully understand that you were living life, Chile. I just wanted to say thank you for all of your videos! You were the first person that I started watching years ago before I was finally able to take the leap of faith to go to Ghana for 2 months. THANK YOU!!! Welcome to the planet, sweet girl!
OMG, I had hyperemesis gravidarium also, Kaylen! I could keep neither food or liquid down for the first 5 months. In addition to several hospitalizations for dehydration, I had to have in-home IV hydration and feeding. You are such a brave, strong and transparent lady. Your story is real, so relatable and absolutely a testimony for others in similar situations. You never know who you are witnessing directly to, breathing life back into their souls. Keep on being you, advocating for yourself, caring for yourself. You can only operate your gifts optimally when you are giving of your essence, not your deficit. God bless you for doing what feels right to you. We will savor the videos you are able to post . And congratulations on your beautiful daughter. She and your son truly favor both you and your husband. ☺️
HG really is THEE WORST!!! :( I actually just posted a video about a week ago about my third HG experience this year :( Was once again HORRID and traumatic. Thank you so much for sharing your experience as well and for this beautiful touching comment! It really warmed my heart!! There are some videos of other women vividly sharing their HG experience that really helped me and I was hoping to pay it forward with my own testimony!
I've been looking for you all the time!!! Welcome back and with that little sweetheart!!! What a lovely little girl? She's so gorgeous, I can't stop smiling. Welcome back Kaylan.
I'm so happy to see this video. Congrats on your baby girl. Lance looks so cute! I was saddened but not surprised to learn that your experience in Namibia was better than in the USA. Thank you so much for the update.

OMG!! I came across your channel a few months back and binged watch all your videos. I was hoping you came back to RU-vid. Congratulations on your new addition to your family.
I watched a travel video on Namibia and I was wondering what happened to you. I'm glad to see you and your family are doing well. Thank God! Sending love from NY.
So happy to see you again! Your videos are such a treat! Your son is so handsome and adorable 🥰 and I can definitely tell your daughter has a big personality❤ Thanks for the update. I look forward to your videos when you do upload. Keep them coming! 🙏🏽
Hi Kaylan! So good to see you - blessings upon blessings to you and your family for such a sweet new baby girl, Shelle! Lance is such a big boy now...wow!😁
Thanks for sharing with us. Your children are a blessing. I'm Jamaican living in Ghana, but thinking of moving to Namibia in near future. Can you give updates on housing and general cost of living in 2023? Thanks
You chose to live in a wrong country, why didn't you come to Namibia so you can see the beauty of the country, we are just few kilometers northwest of South Africa
Hi Kailyn, I didn't recieve a notification, but I just all of a sudden thought about you and wondered how you and family were doing. Your baby girl is very beautiful. She looks like her handsome brother Lance. I am so pleased to know that you all are doing well. Welcome back! I'm really looking forward to seeing your upcoming videos.
We got to watch this with Estrella . Only now Singing along to Chelle “twinkle little stars ✨ “ song she could understand those 2 songs that Chelle was singing ❤ @AfroAmericaninAfrica
Wow! Wow! Wow! Welcome back! I'm happy to see that you are well. Your earlier videos on you moving to Namibia is what started me on researching on the countries of Africa. I've now researched on about five countries, watching nearly one hundred videos. A couple of videos have been disappointing because the African Americans who moved to the continent started taking advantage of those who were relocating there. It is so awesome to see you back! I have a childhood friend who moved to Namibia about 40 years ago, married there and is having a beautiful life there. I may decide to visit him. Please take care of yourself. I'm excited to see you back.
Welcome back I'm so happy to see you and your beautiful family I'm looking forward to see you and your beautiful family for 2023 big love from Barbados 🇧🇧❤
Awwww! You have a beautiful family! Sweet and sentimental update video! Congratulations & I'm happy for you and your family! It's wonderful that you continue to put yourself & your family first! Good for you & God bless all of you! 😍❤️🌍😁
Oh my goodness. I'm so happy so see you! 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹. You look stunning and glowing and your baby is gorgeous. I'm glad you are doing well and hope to see more videos. This made my day!
Congratulations Kaylan! It is so good to see you and your family!! I am glad to see that you and your family are doing well. Keep the awesome content rolling!!!! Welcome back! I am forwarding this video to April.
Oh Kaylan😊, it's really great to see that the family is happy and healthy. Congrats on having your cutiepie and it's comforting to hear that you had such a great care team.
