    ♡ what inspired my family’s move to the gambia?
    - to sum it up, my parents always wanted to move to a country in africa, & after someone suggested gambia to them, they took a trip over here back in 2015 for vacation. the following year, we packed up everything we had & moved to the gambia, west africa all the way from little old clarksville, tennessee! crazy..right? 😅
    ♡ how old am i?
    - I’m currently 23, turning 24 October 11th!

    - iPhone 11 Pro Max & canon g7x mark ii
    ♡ what editing system do i use?
    - I edit everything on my phone, using VideoLeap & sometimes Imovie!
    ♡ what do i do for work in the gambia?
    - I’m currently getting experience working in a hotel, I’m a social media manager for different companies, & I’m a part time content creator on YT!
    ♡ Will i ever move back to the states?
    - At the moment, I don’t think so. I really love traveling & I feel there’s so much more to see & experience in this world than what is limited to us in the US.a

    You have come a long way since the negative comments you and your mom made about Nigerians in your earlier videos to now embracing Nigerian food.. Shows how much you have matured and opened your minds ... Well done

    I am a Sierra Leonean Ricki, the food looks amazing! but I've never heard of potato leaves egusi soup....this sounds like a concoction that has been derived as a result of the cross cultures and intermingling of people from the the various countries of the West African sub-region, just like jollof rice. I would like to eventually try it though❤

    It’s nice to see your wonderful generation cooking emphasis on cooking traditional foods together and enjoying. I like egusi it’s a nice vegan option for me. In Ghana they cook it typically with kontomorie (greens) then add the egusi liquid. It’s a great alkaline alternative instead of soya, tofu etc.
