She made a great decision to stay in Africa especially for her old age. She's surrounded with so much love from her children and grandkids something that is not common abroad. I see how the old are treated here in France, taken to nursing homes and sometimes their families never go to visit them it's like they are a bother, how heartbreaking. Africa is the place to be 💪🏾❤️. I preach this in myyoutubechannel everyday, exposing the challenges of living abroad as Africans.

I have never understood why Africans especially Kenyans have this great need of foreign validation yet we have little regard to our own country. Again, we are who we are, our goodness is sufficient and only when we realise that we will live the true value we have as Kenyans. Love and respect one another, that is what matters most, not praises from elsewhere!

What a lovely and inspiring story of a young Russian woman and black African medical, dental student who were joined together in Holy Matrimony? I’m so happy that both families accepted the relationship with respect and dignity. The husband passed and left the wife, children and grandchildren beaming with much love, peace and happiness. May others of mixed cultures take a page out of their book, that it’s not about money, but it’s all about love, respect and dignity that can prevail in the family. Thank you Simon Greenwood, Afrimax English, for airing such a beautiful story. God bless🙏❤️😀

I like your interviews but help me understand this: why do you describe every Caucasian in Africa you've interviewed as having left his/her "privileged life" to come to impoverished Africa? What exactly makes them all "privileged"? Btw, very interesting interview with an interesting woman. May she live to be 104 and still be as sharp and energetic as now.

My mother lived to age96 and got to meet her grands and great grands. She was the sun around whom all of us orbited, the life of the party with the loudest laugh, the sharpest wit and the most beautiful smile. She was present and vivacious and sharp for all 96 years, except the last week of her life. We loved and adored her and marveled at how she came through abject poverty as a child in FL and became an educator and instilled a love of learning and a respect for all people. This Russian grandmother reminds me that we are all linked by our humanity and love. After I married a German man and moved to Berlin, my mother always sent me news articles about interracial/intercultural couples who loved in spite of hatred, bigotry,war, Jim Crow laws, jealosy and negativity. Loved this interview and this family. Thank you for this story.
