I did not want this video to end. I could watch you talk all day. Thank you so much for sharing this. It was so emotional and at the smile time fulfilling. I could relate so well with most things you said as a black woman living in Europe. Thank you. I would love to see move videos like this😊❤️❤️
Thank you so much Mave. Yes you know the struggles even the ones we still face. But we’ve come a long way and now in a happy place. Thank God for that. ❤️❤️
Not the Goodmorning birdies, goodmorning fishes.. 😃😃I say Goodmorning to my flowers everyday. I wish I can send this video to everyone who sends me a message saying, i‘m having the good life. The difficulty is seldom being spoken about. I try to NOT complain anymore, only because I’ve learn to adjust to this life and enjoy it. It gets REALLY LONELY. I‘ve also learn to enjoy my loneliness adjusting to it. Enjoying the things we have takes us to where we want to be. Thank you for sharing this. Very relatable!😘 P.s what I tell myself is, Shima, you‘ve always been a giddy person, no environment or place could take that shine away from you. So I’ve learnt to be giddy in gloomy days being sad. I try not to dwell on the gloomy days, looking forward to brighter days.
No place can take the shine from you! Honestly powerful statement right there. To get lost and find yourself again. I shall be sharing it to them so they know it’s not as rosy as it seems ❤️
“Wherever you are, be all there.” Isn’t that one of the most difficult things to do, especially when you’re trained to be ambition, always looking ahead, struggling with contentment. Me and my husband both tend to veer off into frustration land by nature, but your videos really help us realign. Btw the Belgium country where you are is simply magical, hushed, and seems deep with mystery. I love your bike, I need to get one again. Profound what you said about how when nothing seems familiar you can feel like you’re a prisoner and shrink into yourself. I have experienced loneliness and being out of place before, it is not easy. And missing African foods and salons for hair my dear that would be very tough. Thanks for letting us have a deeper look into your life, stay strong, grounded, peaceful, and know we send you our love and prayers 🙏🏿🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Vero for your support. It means much. Yes it’s a beautiful village and I hope to share all that I love about it soon. I just didn’t want to give the impression that life here is perfect, it isn’t. Yes get a bike it’s fun to ride in summer. Sending all my love to you two ❤️
It's great to find you hear. Moving abroad changed me to be a real introvert and it's been like this for a decade plus. I also had to learn how to do my own hair. And yes there's that feeling of always "feeling out of place" As for the foods, I gave up and embraced whatever I have.
Nice to see you again my friend and also to see the place you live. Would love to come over one day as that is not far from my place. Thanks for sharing your story, and yes agree. We need to bicycle :-)
Wow this was very interesting and really inspiring. Don’t worry about the video, it works perfectly well and very educative. Thank you for sharing your story.
The video its soo relaxing..... I love everything about the video and ofcourse life is not perfect in Europe as they are thinking ...there's always a positive and negative side.....till now im struggling 😭😭
I think during the pandemic had a huge impact on all of us and made us more self-aware❤️Thanks for sharing your story 🙏In addition one of my dreams is to live in a village
I think you were the Nigerian that any other Nigerian that moves to the village you live in need to convince themselves that it's safe there. Angel, you're really an Angel and a pace-setter.♥️
Walking is so important. I return to Barbados after 50 years. We use to walk now everyone drives evident in health issues and obesity. I want to live where you are. Food, water and some good books.
It was so enlightening to hear your story of a Belgium village life. The misty foggy winter nature ambiance has some sad vibe to it but there is peace in that solitude too. What was that your were dipping your apple with? And those tomato like fruits Llona is so new to me. Love the whole videography! You got it Angel 🦋
