- It may come as a surprise to some, but Nairobi is known as the London of Africa. And it's not unusual to see Europeans flocking its streets. More recently, though, more and more Africans have also been making Nairobi their home. CCTV's Maria Galang follows one South African living in the Kenyan capital

Ronnie Otieno That's very thoughtful of you.
Thank you Theam Bagua for the information, it make me more motivated to move to Nairobi, Kenya and I should pack my bag and hop on a plane from Jamaica shortly. Cheers!
Theo.. Thank you for the love! This just made so happy 😊 yeah, cheers to Nairobi!
My land is Kenya n' I love it.
i love nairobi and my country! no matter what
I love Nairobi it's a lot of fun!
Angela N only insecurity matters especially regarding alshabaab is the only one affecting nai but apart from that nairobi is awesome!!
I have stayed in kenya for 8 years i'm hoping to be back some day soon
haha seems S.A and Kenya both have something in common...we know how to bargain!! Cheers SA
Michael Gichure, i don't thinks so not like you Kenyans, when foreigners arrive in the Country, you are welcoming happy smiling at them even to the last teeth,..go to their Countries and you will see you are not welcome.
Nairobi is actually the best place in Africa Kenya as a whole is a wonderful country..... Apart from the corrupt police and small thieves then u will love it there...if u can deal with those two
Secretive Missd
Your lack of punctuation is confounding- but I assume you're making the claim that Kenya is the 'best place' in Afrika as a whole? Lol!
To each his own opinion, I guess.
Loadz of thugs too
I'm Kenyan, its a beautiful country with a lot to explore. The only problem with Nairobi is poor drainage system, hectic traffic, wrecked roads, name it. I hope all these will soon be solved. Otherwise it's an amazing city.
I miss home. Ngara I'll be back. Currently at Phoenix AZ. Anybody else watching from Phoenix?
I can't wait to finish my studies and go back home, mimi ni mwenye Kenya daimaaaaaa I heart you Kenya
What a great host Theo is! So, compared to a city of Seattle's population of 2 million, how big is Nairobi? Yes I'm sure it would have some difficulties, but travel is so expanding to a person's attitude. It would be cool to go.
4 million
so lovely to see that other africans are visiting and enjoying kenya!
Our City Nairobi the Great....i wish always its expansion
No place in the world like Nairobi. You'll fall in love and never want to leave. Also, the number of expats cited in the video has grossly underrated. Trust me. Some just don't have papers so are not counted.
no place is like Nairobi where you are robbed in broad daylight while other people watch you
Were you robbed? Please tell us about your own dream city and how perfect it is.
yeah i was robbed my phone and some other valuable items
Same thing happened to me in Paris. Expected in big cities. Can't hold it against them or let colour the positive things.
+freedomm everywhere there is thrives,I'm Kenyan and I was robbed in Jordan all of my stuff .Nairobi is so awesome
Good opinion from a South African. Despite all the challenges, Nairobi is fun and the climate is good all year.
Can't wait to move to Nairobi 😊
Like his house simple n nice
Mombasa is the best city in Kenya. It's a costal city with beautiful beaches. I am from Somalia I lived in Mombasa little over 3 years. This was back in the early 90s life was very cheap though back the. We had Great experience indeed
That click sound he makes at 3:47 when he says "nine out of ten"
Gotta love Nairobi, especially them Wednesday and Friday afternoons. Nairobi is a way of life, you have to live it to appreciate it. NY...Nairobi yetuuuuuuuu!!!!!
I love Kenya!
Love Nairobi
Miss home when l see thz.Nairobi Kenya😘.Caming soon.
Wow cheers to Nairobi. Good boy.
How are African Americans treated here ? I'd like to visit !!
Of course he has the American accent! But worry not, the people are extremely friendly and visitors are always treated well.
You will be treated like you have been a friend or family member forever. I had a great time while I was there. The trip is worth it. Go around the Christmas holidays. Flights may be a bit more expensive but it is well worth it.
Prudent Student i live in Nairobi & i can tell u for a fact youll be treated in the most hospitable manner whether African american or white. The only way the locals would identify youre not from around is by your American accent. Hv a Safe journey & i hope you do enjoy your stay!
Uganda and Kenya love and welcome everybody.
We won't even notice you in street... Because here almost everybody is black.... But I would want to converse with African American lol... I have never... Only some whites
oooooh yes Nairobi my city mwaaaaaa
I am very like this place in Nairobi
I miss kenya already
Sameeeew
How interesting
Kenyans are not hateful towards foreigners because they always had expatriates .
Excuse me Sarah, is it safe for a Celtic philanthropist? For example if I buy bread for starving kids will some opportunist guys try to steal from me or think I'm rich? (I don't have much but what I do have is spent on people less fortunate)
Ati the LONDON of africa...hehehehe.....This place is addictive thou
Stephanie Kirathe
What's so great about London?
Beautiful city. I'd like too move to the more rural area live amongst the land and animals.. That's just me tho
I thought Africa is like filled up with deserts but then got shocked when I knew that Africa has a city that's better than ours :O
Africa has hundreds of Cities Some way better than your City.
Check out. Johannesburg, Cape town, Durban, Luanda, Kigali, Nairobi, Marrakech, Cairo, Dar es salaam etc...
How safe is it to visit?
Very safe
I was born in Nairobi , how I miss it n it's craziness

Cyber sexual-harrassment isn't funny.
The 'London' of Afrika? What's so great about London?
i love nairobi
how much is rent out there? Homes? Any websites where they buy and sell real estate? What about laws about buying real estate?
Y10Q It depends on the neighbourhood one has chosen. There's a streamlined system and guidelines for owning a property in Kenya. You can send me a mail layiratu@yahoo.com for further guidance.
Boaz Nyakachunga I am thinking of traveling to Nairobi in a couple of months. Is it safe. I see that in April they had the college shooting. I also see the US has a travel warning.
Nairobi is very safe as far as security is concerned. Shooting happened in Northern Kenya that is largely Islamic but security has been beefed up since then. We understand the western media have a tendency to exaggerate the negative happenings in Africa but for me I feel very safe here. I'd recommend for anyone to visit Nairobi or Kenya in general.
+Gari Harvey To be fair, the U.S. has had a few college (and public) shootings itself.
+Boaz Nyakachunga Are you named after the biblical Boaz, Ruth's husband?
I once went there for World Cup and they keep on asking me when are you going back to your own country
+Omar Leeban Unfortunately many South Africans, especially the lower classes, are xenophobic.
Omar Leeban
Is that so...?
Seems unlikely, as they would have known that you were there for the World Cup.
This guy is high on expired weed
I want to expat in Nairobi so bad...
You mean to be an immigrant don't you?

As far as Black South Africans are concerned
"Somalia is also said to have provided passports to the African National Congress members during the fight against the apartheid government . Current South African President Jacob Zuma had a Somali passport." - Afkinsider.com
But what do we Somalis and other Africans get in return! Outrageous killings!
A A
Stop with the negativity.
mbugua=MBOnGWA is a Kenyan(Gikuyu) name
Exactly what I figured :)
looking forward to moving Kenya 2017 inshallah or end of 2016
+Yusuf Playz why u moving there?

Welcome, hope you're here already
Please stay in Somalia we have enough of you guys
Pamoja watu wangu
My county
Nairobi.. ndio the zone my song look up in my videos
What about Ghana? I hear that the Ghanians are very friendly, and nice. Why is it that there is rivalry when it comes to the many countries of the AC based on which is better & whose food is better? Ridiculous! Just enjoy the continent together!
I agree Africa has so much
to offer so why squabble
just live in peace and
help one another 👍
be glad when they build a subway, magnetic monorail and a lightrail ...
Mingo Tubman
Huh? Do you grammar?
Mingo Tubman
And hey, let's leave western things in the west where they belong.
Devin J. Bowden sorry, was a little inebriated at the time...all those populations need a subway system...over there.
Devin J. Bowden wait what? what's wrong with having a transportation. system that 1 will create jobs 2 move people around thus further spurring the economy along 3 help eliminate that god awful abject poverty thing prevalent everywhere.. what are you some kind of assassin for ignorance?
Good story on my capital city, but this is just half the story
Nairobi ndio the zone..rap song look up in my videos..jibe the rapper

Let South Africans know that there is no xenophobia nor there's jinoistic, so feel at home in Nairobi, and don't fail to spread the panafricanism attitude you are now treated!
I prefer wakanda.
it's not safe and it's not safe for South African to live in Kenya and you know why
+Omar Leeban ...Why?
smh Kenyans are friendly unlike #southafricans
+Omar Leeban kindly answer why?
One Black is ripped off by another black
+Llinks Macher 1000 Kenyan Shillings is 10 US dollars. I hardly call that a rip off
He didn't get ripped off, learn the currency conversion.
Expatriates or Immigrants nkt!
MzeeMoja1
IMMIGRANTS!
