00:17Hello everyone!
00:18Is that when you have a plural?
00:23I don't know, please let me know in the comments if you are from Uganda.
00:26But hello everyone, I'm Jetske, I'm Dutch.
00:30I'm living in the Netherlands, but currently living in Uganda with my boyfriend.
00:36And today he is at work and I am going to let my nails done.
00:40I have already a kind of busy schedule.
00:43I don't know what time it is, it is almost 12.
00:46Oh, it is still morning.
00:49But I'm going to let my nails get done.
00:52I want to go to a restaurant to work from there.
00:56And I want to look around the neighborhood to see what have been changed in those months
01:02that I was here.
01:04Because I was here in 2022 from April, yes, until August.
01:12And now it is already April 2023, so a lot of things have changed here.
01:17So I really want to check that out.
01:19But for the people who didn't, yeah, saw my previous video or my small vlog, my short,
01:29on my first day here, I opened the gate and the gate rolled over my toe.
01:38Super nice, so it was bleeding like nothing.
01:42Yeah, this is actually going to be the first time that I'm going to have a long walk.
01:47I'm going to wear some sneakers because I want to protect my feet.
01:51I already put some bandage on my toe to hopefully, yeah, protect it and make sure it's not going
02:00to bleed again, but if it all goes well, my schedule will be as following.
02:08I'm going to start doing my nails.
02:10Then I'm going to the restaurant to have some work there.
02:13And there's also the gym where I used to work out from.
02:17So I want to have a new subscription because I think when I have the subscription that that
02:24is going to be pushing me to go to the gym.
02:27And now I'm the whole morning thinking, no, I'm not going blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
02:32So that's my plan.
02:34And then I may be going to get some money, but that's like three kilometer walk.
02:39I can use a boda, but I know my boyfriend doesn't like that.
02:44If I do that, even if it's a safe boda, it's not that good.
02:52So yeah, I'm going to walk from there if everything goes well.
02:57And actually, I also want to walk around just in the neighborhood to see the new buildings
03:02and stuff.
03:03And I want to do some shoppings for the evening and yeah, tomorrow morning.
03:10That is my new planning to just go shopping for dinner and breakfast the next morning and
03:16lunch.
03:16So when I work from home, I don't have to think about what do I want to eat?
03:20I just have it already in my place.
03:23So yeah, it's going to be a busy schedule somehow, but I have seven hours before the
03:28sunset.
03:29So it can be well.
03:32I didn't finish the whole watermelon.
03:35It's still here.
03:35I can show you.
03:37This is all I left over.
03:40Maybe I'm going to take some, but my stomach is not yet.
03:43That's, I don't know, my stomach has to get used to the food here again.
03:49You know, my biggest problem sometimes is the first time when I went to Uganda, you are
03:56really a Mzungu and you're like, oh, I don't eat from the street, blah, blah, blah.
04:01I have to be careful.
04:04And now it does.
04:06I don't feel like a visitor.
04:07I don't feel like a tourist.
04:09I don't feel like a volunteer.
04:11I feel like I'm home.
04:15So that's somehow a good thing because I love the country.
04:19I love the people.
04:19I love the food.
04:20The bad thing about that is that I forget that my body is not a foreigner and it's not
04:28used to the food yet.
04:29So I have to take it slow.
04:33And maybe I didn't.
04:36So yeah, it is even, I feel so home here that I almost forgot to get a visa.
04:42Like two weeks before I left, I was like, oh, I have to fix a visa.
04:45Thank God it was fixed in one day, but that's how I feel here.
04:50I feel at home.
04:52So thank you for letting me feel at home.
04:56And enough talked for now.
04:59See you at the nail store.
05:01Bye.
05:07Okay.
05:07It's a little bit awkward to film from here, but I wasn't allowed to film inside.
05:13At least that's what I think it was or the guy didn't understand me, but he said no, but
05:19I had the feeling that he didn't understand me.
05:21So I have to learn that sentence in Uganda, but I hope you can see it.
05:25My nails are done and I'm really excited and I'm really hungry.
05:29So I'm now going to have some food.
05:33So yeah, you will see what I'm going to eat.
05:35I think they have here chapati with veggies, which I really love.
05:38So I'm going to take some chapati with veggies and I decided not to walk to the ATM because
05:44I don't know my feet.
05:45It is okay, but it's not really okay.
05:53Hello guys.
05:54I am home now.
05:55The last thing you saw was me eating the salad and the wraps.
06:01They call it a wrap.
06:03Of course, it's chapati.
06:04And actually I was thinking when I was walking home, I was thinking, oh my goodness, I love,
06:10you know what I love the most now that I have the opportunity, the possibility to like,
06:19yeah, how do you say that?
06:20Experience both.
06:21I mean, I love to eat local food.
06:24I love to eat Chico Mando.
06:26I love to go to a local restaurant and have there my food, but I also love to go
06:31to a more, is it European restaurant?
06:34To have some more European food and to have that combination.
06:40I love that.
06:43And of course also cooking myself because that is all in those bags.
06:48Tonight I'm going to cook, but I also did some shopping store tomorrow morning.
06:54Actually, I'm hoping I did enough because I don't know if we have like some cornstarch
07:00at home.
07:02Otherwise, I still have to get that because I want to make some pancakes tomorrow, but
07:08I got a new watermelon.
07:10I mean, hello, I need watermelon.
07:14Oh, and I thought that it's also so nice on the pancake tomorrow.
07:19And what I also have is some mango.
07:22I'm going to do that also on the pancake.
07:25Why didn't I go for bananas then?
07:28Okay.
07:29Nevermind.
07:29Maybe I can go buy them tomorrow.
07:32Then I have two bell peppers and two, four, six tomatoes.
07:43And then I went to the supermarket as well.
07:45I bought some spaghetti because I know my boyfriend loves spaghetti more than other pasta.
07:51And I have some soy sauce because that is really nice with the rice.
07:58So I didn't bite the soy sauce for the pasta, but for the rice.
08:04So yeah, I'm going to just have some pasta with some veggies tonight.
08:09And I have also some onion left over.
08:12So that's going to be in the pasta.
08:14And for tomorrow morning, I have two pieces of fruit and I'm going to bake some pancakes.
08:20And for a Dutch channel, my boyfriend is going to learn me how to make Chico Mando because
08:26a lot of Dutch people ask me, how do you make it?
08:29Because I promote Chico Mando.
08:31Like it's the best dish in this whole wide universe, which I think it is.
08:36No, but I just love Chico Mando.
08:40And I think when I'm learning it, I can also try to make it at home.
08:44So yeah.
08:45And after my lunch, I subscribed in the gym where I used to work out before.
08:50So I'm really excited.
08:51I also talked to the manager there and he said that we have to train together once.
08:55So probably there will be, well, in some weeks, a training video from him and I together.
09:03So I'm really excited.
09:04I'm really looking forward to that already.
09:06And for now, I'm just going to walk from home because the restaurant didn't have Wi-Fi today.
09:13Yes, those things happen.
09:15But I'm okay with it.
09:17And I love the really slow down life in Uganda.
09:22I didn't go for the bank account as well, like to get some money because I didn't trust my feet.
09:29I have the feeling that it's all okay.
09:34I'm going to check it out how my toe is doing, but I thought I shouldn't force it.
09:39And I'm happy with my nails.
09:41Of course, it is a little bit Christmas vibes and it's almost Easter, but yeah, that will be fine.
09:51Okay, let's tidy up, see what my toe is doing and work.
09:58See you later.
10:31See you later.
10:33See you later.
10:35See you later.

12:10so
12:59Oh my god, this avocado.
13:05Oh, this is so good.
13:07This one is so amazing.
13:12An avocado a day keeps the doctor away.
13:16I love those kind of meals, really.
13:21Yes, I'm so excited.
13:23I'm just going to eat it now.
13:25Okay, guys, I'm going to eat this chocolate, just a piece.
13:31It's from the Netherlands.
13:33And I realized this was quite a European day in Uganda.
13:39I don't know.
13:40But, you know, somehow I want to share all the love for the culture and the local food and etc.
13:46And don't get me wrong.
13:49I love the local foods.
13:51Check my shorts.
13:52You will see me eating a lot of chico-mando and other food.
13:58But on the other hand, I want to show, I think, the people from Europe that some people have, like,
14:04thoughts about Africa in general or Uganda.
14:08Anyhow, I'm going to eat this chocolate.
