LETS TALK ENTERTAINMENT……PART 1

YouTube

The reason why YouTube is my first go to place for entertainment is because YouTube videos are fairly short, so you get entertained without needing to dedicate too much time. You can easily take up a ten minute tea break and catch up on something interesting from your favourite you tuber without feeling like you’re stealing working time. These are some of my favourite you tubers hat I actually watch and have been loving so far…In no particular order of preference…

1.        Green calabash/Yummy Mummy – FAMILY& LIFESTYLE

If you’re into Family and lifestyle type of videos these channels are definitely for you. The videos are basically about everyday life at home with kids. You might pick few tips and tricks along the way.

2.      Wodemaya/Miss Trudy –TRAVEL VLOGS

If you’re feeling patriotic about promoting the image of Africa to the outside world…this is the channel for you…..I would advise that you start from older videos though, because the interesting thing about these two channels is low-key their YouTube Journey and love story between miss Trudy and Maya.

You might also want toc check out TayoAinaFilms….not exactly purely travel but definitely binge worthy if your curious about West Africa, real estate content and  a bit of lifestyle content….a safe choice if you don’t know what to recommend to a guy (I feel like girls are way more diverse )

3.      Best Ever food / Mark Wiens-FOOD REVIEW SHOWS

Both of these are really popular food travel channels but each is unique because of the host’s personalities. Sonny Side of Best ever food has a charming personality and good…almost witty sense of humour while Mark Wiens is extremely passionate about food you can almost taste it from watching him eat….ok that’s me…one thing that’s for sure though is that you can never get bored of these two….and you can definitely recommend both to anyone, anytime, anywhere….

4.      ‘His teaness’ Edgar Obare-TEA

If you are the type of person that is privy to the latest gossip in town and you want to stay updated, this is the guy to look out for. Edgar Obare will serve your tea hot with extra spice…..plus he’s cute too so….you’ll always have something nice to look at lol….

You might want to check him out more on Instagram  stories though….he brews more tea on those sides…….While at it…also check out Mkamburi Chigogo….not the hottest tea but her exceptional presentation skills and bold personality and consistency definitely makes up for it

5.      Craving yellow/ Girl and the world-LIFESTYLE

Both hosts on these shows are women.  Other women in their twenties and early thirties can definitely relate to them on matters life…and ‘beautiful spaces’ both literally and figuratively. They are about creating beautiful living spaces and making the most of the women they are…and continue to be. Girl and the world videos have a ‘Zen’ touch to them and you might want to make it the last video you watch before you go to bed. Craving yellow on the other hand is more on the bubbly but mature side of things…a girl in her early twenties might get big sis vibes…basically just has a yellow mood to it…if that makes sense lol

6.      Omabelletv/Joanna Kinuthia/Rosina Sharon/ Wabosha Maxine-MAKE UP

Of all things….I probably watch make up tutorials most and I have limitless recommendations but these stand out for me for different reasons.

Omabelle is a Nigerian You tuber living somewhere in the ‘Ups ‘(majuu lol).  She has a very inviting personality and is very good in what she does. If you have a problematic skin and you are into make-up as well she is the best one to look out for. She is all about skills, tools and products…..definitely worth your time.

Joanna Kinuthia on the other hand is a Kenyan you tuber that started out small but is now making waves in the beauty industry in Kenya. She has her own make up line that currently sells eyeshadow, lipstick and eye lashes. You might want to check her out for both skin care regimen and make up videos. Her old make up tutorial videos are really good for beginners.

Rosina Sharon is a lot new in the YouTube streets, she has not been around for a very long time but her subscribers have grown exponentially in only a few months. I have watched very few of her tutorials but the fact she has attracted a large audience within a short period says something positive about her content. From what I have watched, her content is 99 percent make up tutorials…really good for beginners…especially if you are looking for ‘make up on a budget’.

You might also want to check out Wabosha Maxine. She does make up and other random but interesting stuff….wouldn’t’ necessarily go to her for make-up tutorials though…but you should definitely check her out….she just has a sweet vibe you might like….she is likeable. Yea, likeable is the word lol.

7.      Robeson Design/TopBilling South Africa-INTERIOR DESIGN ARCHITECTURE

If you love beautiful spaces and you’re into top notch interior design shows, these are for you. Top Billing will get you low-key asking yourself why on earth you didn’t pursue architecture or interior design…the kick to these shows is that you don’t just  see beautiful spaces…you get to experience it…..these shows might make you have a whole career transformation…don’t say I didn’t warn you….

8.      Jordan Peterson-LIFE TEACHINGS

This is a kind of a ‘saving the best for last’ moment here. Jordan Peterson is a clinical psychologist that you have to watch. I cannot say anything about him without totally watering down the person that he is. Watch him and decide if you like him or not…..you’ll probably like him.
