Thanks so much for out the hard struggle in such a calm way. ❤️❤️❤️ Liberia forever
Lol the struggle. Thank you! 😘
So happy that I found another informative vlog. Keep up the good job.
Thank you!
Joy I really relate to a lot of what you are talking about. I also came to the states at a very young age and have lived here most of my life. I started going back home to Liberia on regular basis about 14 years ago after being in the states for 20 years straight. I love being home in Liberia but after living here for so long it is a bit of a culture shock in certain asking aspects. Thank you for touching on Kindness. I have seen somethings that I don’t like as well but as you said the best thing we can do is model kindness in how we treat EVERYBODY. We were blessed to be able to come to the states and have opportunities that others did not which does not make us better... just blessed. I crench when I hear people talking disrespectfully to people who work for them. When ever I see that I call them on it... which is not always popular but it helps me look at myself in the mirror and sleep well at night. Sorry for this long comment but you it a spot. 😀😀Anyways I just stumbled on your channel but I love it. Don’t know about the book club cus I don’t really read novels 😀 but I will watch everything you post. Keep up the good work. We building our house in Paynsville and almost done. Scheduled to be back home in late February. Can’t wait.
Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time out to comment. Yes, kindness and respect is so needed in our interactions here in LIB. Lol and the culture shock is real. Congrats on the house too. I'm so proud of my fellow Liberians who decide to build in their home country. Please keep me posted on your travels. 😘
@@SheSpeaksToo Will certainly do. I’m getting up the nerve to start posting videos here on CZcams 😊. We’ll see
@@peesomathies you should start posting! My first video was in my car on my lunch break. Something I've been wanting to do for a long time but kept over thinking.
This is so good! Thank you so much! I am a Liberian and have lived in the U.S. for over 20 years. I will be visiting next April for the first time with my American wife! This video is very informative. Thank you!!!
@@petertarpeh1636 Thank you, I'm glad it was helpul!
Great content. I love the background 🇱🇷❤️
Thank you!
The grocery shopping part was so funny when you said a little invasive 😆
🤣🤣🤣

You're my favorite Liberian CZcamsr! Keep up the good work sis.
Aww thank you Cynthia!
Oh gosh I just love these videos. I’m going in April!
Thank you. You will enjoy it!
Omg I love your videos please try and vlog
I haven’t been home in 17 years I’m finally coming next month I’m so excited I am going to watch all your videos..good job keep it up.
Thank you so much!
We don’t believe in Halloween in Liberia. But do agree with you on the reckless driving in Liberia. Because I drove in & out of Monrovia, Hahahaha..oh my God! It’s so so much crazy & scary to drive in Liberia but did it by God’s grace. Where there’s no streets lights, the cross walk isn’t observed by both both drivers & the people, they do cross the streets at any points. The huge & long waited traffics around the city. No observance of traffic rules. However, with all these, I do really love my country (LIB) Liberia & I did really enjoyed having fun with my families, with both old & new friends. I went at beautiful beaches & restaurants for dinner & many more! Moreover, Liberian people are very friendly sit of people & they welcoming as well. Can’t wait come back for another vacation. LIB all the wayyyy mehn!!! DA our Liberia de yaaaa!!! One love LiB & God bless mama Liberia & it’s people in Jesus name! Thanks Sis. Joy for such wonderful video & God bless you!
Halloween is not a wide spread celebration but there were small Halloween activities for kids in the city and and a Halloween event at a club that we found out after the fact via social media. Yes the driving is crazy! I too love the family time in LIB. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing. There aren't many videos that show the good parts or lifestyles in Liberia. Thanks for sharing. I knew basic Liberian history but have a hard time understanding that with so many natural resources, many African Countries suffer problems with utilities and obtaining access to their resources, food, fuel, and the prices for food can be high in comparison to their economy. I would love to visit Liberia and other parts of Africa but the thought of living in one of those countries in light of the difficulties makes it unthinkable. How is the government run, how are things regulated, what job opportunities are there. There seems to be a need for government there to learn from or partner with countries or companion that are successful in providing electricity, etc. in order to make the improvements necessary to make things better there.
Thank you for watching and commenting! Liberia has numerous complex needs and unique issues, none of which I profess to be an expert. These problems would have to be addressed by dedicated and selfless individuals who are actually on the ground, not on the outside looking in. I made this video in hopes of helping individuals who plan on visiting or moving to be aware of some of the cultural differences. As far as considering moving to Africa, that is a decision one would have to make based on their own individual standards. But moving shouldn't even be an option without multiple visits.
Great and informative channel. I hope to visit one day
Thank you so much!
Anothe dope Vlog Joy. just one warning for anyone returning home for the first time or in a very long time - if you have a weak heart, DO NOT sit in the front seat of any vehicle. I repeat, DO NOT sit in the front seat. Ya heard it here first. Lmao!
I'm telling you! Most days now I ride in the back with my baby
Dignity and Respect 🙌🏽❤️🇱🇷

LEC will not let us be great in LIB. I just picked up the Duncan cake mix from Walmart for $1.50. Money goes so fast in LIB.

I think you could learn a lot from CNAs and LPNs. The ones I work with are not my personal maids and they are independent with their work and can teach a registered nurse a thing or two....
The point of me mentioning CNAs and LPNs was to highlight that no one should be talked down to even if their job description is different then ours. Not once did mention or imply they were my personal maids. Being a nurse for as long as I have been, I'm wise enough to know I could learn a lot from all of my peers regardless of titles. The whole point was to be kind to everyone. Thanks for watching.
hello from lublin
You live in Texas hot weather you not melt. Do you think liberia heat going to melt you?
So first of all, I live in "Texas". I can pay "taxes" but never live in taxes. And that is a play on words. I don't actually believe that the Liberian heat will melt me. That's unfortunate that that was your only take away from this video.
Please make a video for each topic, you talk about.
Will do my best.
How long are you staying? Ya’ll moving back?
I'm still scoping out the country 😄
do you know about polish Law for us
I don't know anything about Polish law. This video was about differences in Liberia that travelers would have to adjust to.
it for only Liberia people not for other,s African,s that live in poland
I don't understand what you are asking. This video was about cultural differences when traveling to Liberia. I don't know anything about Poland or Polish law. There may be other videos on CZcams that address polish law.
But u don’t have to if you done want to honey
"If you done want to honey"??? If I don't want to do what? What exactly are you saying?
For me I prefer living in Liberia than Living outside Liberia is so sweet when it comes to living
