I am a Jamaican who resonates with my roots. Please remember that Africa is a vast continent with many countries and diverse cultures. For algorithm purposes, saying "Africa" works. However, in the future, please refer to the actual countries (for example, Kenya and Rwanda) in your video titles. You will still get the SEO benefits. God bless.
Thanks for the tip.
Good point. We are very tired of western media portraying Africa as a country yet its the second largest most diverse continent with 54 countries. Otherwise nice content, good people...
Thank you for visiting our country.
Please visit again.
They have just literally said they are coming to Kenya and Rwanda,, Even for us Africans we don't refer specifically to a country for instance we say Europe, Asia etc, it ok
@@wanjalajesse1694she actually pointed out very useful information for the family. And it wasn't said in an offensive way.
Welcome to Kenya. We are hospitable people.
You’re amazing 🤩
I have watched/followed numerous RV content providers. I just want to thank you for doing this particular video. Not only was this my FAVORITE CZcams video, you demonstrated courage to insert your faith to a public forum. I commend you both for doing this missionary work. The video was fantastic as it provided high-quality content and was so courageous. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Your kind words mean more than you know thank you so much 🥰
I went to Africa about 20 years ago. I remember the first thing I thought is everyone needs to take their kids and experience the wonderful journey of this place. You have given your children one on the most incredible gifts. Best decision. I hope you all enjoy.
Thank you 😊
Africa is an entire continent. Which country did you visit?
i hope you remember africa is a a continent

Hensley is such a wonderful little girl. I love how she is honest about her fears but pushed through and is determined to enjoy new experiences. It’s so sweet.
Thank you so much 🥰 that means more than you know.
You are also welcome to Kenya 🇰🇪 such a nice experience I will host you for free
@@ahmedabdi20061 Thanks :)
What an incredible journey to add to your family's lives. The majority of people on this planet will never have the opportunity to travel to Africa, so it's wonderful that you've shared the spirit and warmth of the people, and also the wondrous creatures who only inhabit that continent. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
Thank you for watching. It’s been incredible so far!
Am Ugandan I must say am so proud of you guys for bringing out what a true Africa is to the world and most of all showing your children that there is life beyond those open doors.
That is so sweet to say, we feel so blessed to have these opportunities and love sharing with others.
You guys are AWESOME parents!!! Your kids are so richly blessed in culture already due to your lifestyles. They will forever treasure these family adventures. May God continue to bless you tremendously for what you do. Thank you for sharing it with us. ✈️🧳🙏🏾💕🌎
Thank you 😊 that’s our prayer!
I absolutely loved everything about this video. The people of Kenya are wonderful. Can't wait to see part 2.
Thank you 😊
Kenya is amazing!!! We spent the month of February 2023 there.The long flight is worth it.The people are so nice.
We stayed at the Giraffe Manor which is near were you feed the Giraffes. Its differently a life changing trip. Enjoy!!!!!
Thank you we agree the people are so amazing 🤩
That's hilarious! I used to live in Langatta along the border fence of the girraffe sanctuary. I remember I was the 'new' kid when I'd get home from St Andrews Boarding School in Turi on easter holidays and such. I remember there was Walter the warthog who hit the Wilsons' corn patch literally the day it was ready for picking! I was fixing the chain on my Honda monkey bike Dad used to let me ride when it wasn't in the back of his twin Commanche, and there were three girraffe staring at me as the 'new' kid from the fence at the botttom of the garden. I'd never seen them there before, I knew they came there and I guess they knew the faces at the homes surrounding their sanctuary. I looked up and showed my face, they took it all in and walked off. Anyway it's a small world, I never thought you lot would ever go to Kenya, let alone my old neighbourhood! I lived in England last time i commented a few years ago, but now for all my sins I'm stuck in Scotland. I grew up in Virginia so you show my places in the States when I'm homesick, so, thanks! Really.
Thank you so much for sharing that 😊
Welcome to kenya, l have been watching your videos without knowing you would visit my country .❤❤
Awe that’s amazing 🤩
I feel like every comment I make is the same…so here goes. What an experience for the kids (and for you, and for us as viewers). Your kids are so fortunate to have you as parents. And they are such sweet kids, with such amazing insight and commentary.
Thank you so much for the kind words, they really mean a lot to us. We love these open door opportunities to teach our children and share with the world!
"open door opportunities" heard you say that multiple times in this video, but I don't think you've used these particular words much before to describe some of your previous journeys. Wondering what God is building in your hearts and what sermon or story lead up to the way you are communicating this one.
I'm sure it's been a long time in the making, and this is another layer in your testimony. Going to be pondering this thought this week... "what open door are you asking me to walk through in my life Lord?" Saying "Yes" and taking the leap... easier said than done. As I type, Hebrews 10:24 comes to mind... very fitting for the gratitude some, including myself, have shown over your video. Thank you Lord for giving boldness and love to your people. @@LessJunkMoreJourney
I cried so many times, at the beauty, at the animals, but mostly at the love of people helping others out!
🥹 I’m not crying you’re crying 🤣🤣
I’m so impressed by the high level of education your children receive - kudos to you both!!!
Thank you it’s hard work but it’s so worth it!
Amazing
Honestly, I usually do not watch a 54 minute video, but this 'safari' to Africa and your editing was fantastic! We watched to the end. What an experience for you and your family. Be Blessed!
Thank you, we know it’s not our norm to make videos this long, but we really wanted to share our experience in depth.
MASTERY of editing! Wonderful family, wonderful story, place, purpose and adventure - truly inspirational and a joy to watch. Can't wait to watch the rest of the series. WELL DONE!!!
Thank you so much 😊
What an amazing open door! It is incredible that you’re doing this as a family! I spent many years in children’s ministry and I can tell you, nothing is as impactful to children as ministering with their parents! Prayers for safety, wisdom, and that you are filled up
as you pour out! Prayers also for everyone you come in contact with, that God would touch and transform their hearts and lives!
Thank you so much for the prayers 🥰
I admire people(to be specific westerns) who decide to come and experience Africa instead of learning about it on the news..and you guys took it futher and brought the kids .I can't wait to go back to Africa my motherland,after living outside for years
We wouldn’t trade this experience for anything 🤗
Well, I guessed the wrong continent! Africa! That's so special! I enjoyed this video very much, and I'm so blessed by your love for people. The Lord bless and keep you all...
We are loving the people here 🥰
In 51 at the age of five we, that is mum dad and sister flew to Dar es Salaam for three years so your journey brings back memories. It was a wonderful life growing up in E Africa. I am sure you will enjoy youself.
We have really enjoyed our time!
I just started watching this video and I’m almost in tears. I grew up in Swaziland/eSwatini, and I’ve been on mission to Zambia twice. I CANNOT wait to watch this video!!!!!
Wow! The places you stayed are posh!
Thank you so much for watching!
Thanks for referring to the specific countries you visited in the African continent.
It looks like the first part of your journey in Africa was pure magic ✨can’t wait to see the rest of it!
It has been truly incredible!
Amazing video! You have done some great ones but this one is the best ever! Thank you for taking us along with you!
Awe that is so sweet we are so glad you enjoyed it!
This is amazing! Thank you for taking us with you!

This looks like an amazing trip and I think it awesome that you are spreading the "WORD," while spreading the word on ways to help these beautiful souls advance in their lives! Thank you!
Thank you! It is something that has been on our hearts for a while!
What a spectacular journey!!! Enjoy!

Great video Nathan. Glad to see you finally made Africa. I’m so happy that I don’t have to keep your next big adventure a secret anymore. Have a great time and keep the great videos coming.
Thanks for holding it on as long as you did 😅
I'm in tears, what a beautiful camp 26:30. ❤
It was so spectacular there are no words.
What amazing and awesome life you are providing for your children. To teach them the value of another person, another country and another culture. Keep taking us on these "safaris" with you. You and your family represent what one can achieve in humanity when it becomes bigger then oneself. I love watching the positivity you put out into a world that at times only reflects the negative. Know that you and your family make a difference in the lives you meet and touch along the journey. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much that means so much 🥰
I can't wait to keep exploring through the eyes of your awesome family.
Thank you so much 😊
Wow! That is your best video yet! So inspiring and beautiful. I could really tell the impact those wonderful people made on you, and they impacted me as well, very emotional journey, thank you

This video is probably one of the best y'all have ever produced! Very entertaining!

love the video. Thanks so much for sharing.
We are having an amazing adventure experiencing Africa! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
This was the best! I am so happy y’all were able to go to Africa. The tent is amazing and the views are beautiful. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much 🥰
Y’all are amazing ❤ thanks for sharing this video with us ❤
Thanks for watching! 🥰
What a wonderful video! So inspiring! Beautiful people and beautiful scenery! Can’t wait to see episode 2 of your Journey!! 🙏❤️🙏
Thank you so much!
The kids are growing up so fast and so lucky you are providing these opportunities for their journey. Thanks for being you.
You are so kind thank you 😊
What an amazing safari!! Tears were rolling down my face during your morning coffee time seeing the sun come up and seeing the animals on safari. The tent is awesome and I would definitely love to stay there if given the opportunity. Hearing the Kenyans sing is so magical. Love what Jumanji is doing for those women. Very powerful. We could use that entire program here in the states. Think of all the women who have been deemed unworthy and put out to fend for themselves and their families who need that mental and emotional boost to become financially fit for their life. Love that the women in Kenya are feeling loved and empowered. God bless the Jumanji ministry and you and your family for allowing us to see all the wonderful things in Kenya. So cool to see the Masai people you encountered.
This whole experience has been nothing short of incredible. I’m sure there non profits like that here in the US.
Prayers for a safe and blessed journey. May you be successful in your missionary work.
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing your adventure. Blessings
Thank you for watching!

What great work and memories you are making. I did mission work for 6 weeks in Kenya and Uganda back in college 20 years ago. Of course I didn’t have my family then. This will be something they will remember their entire lives.
We pray it makes an impact on their lives for the better!
This is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Wowzers!
