the d. r c teenage guide, alvaros, she cup i grew up in hill bro lunch. it provided him an opportunity to escape the rough, the city streets, same facility that these kids went to does the same, the low so that i went through. and now i'm able to do this towards and also give back to the community the same way week. even back when it keeps me architect who wrote me, prescott design it off market space with over 400 apartments, posting retail shopping on the ground level, something almost unheard of 50 years ago. his daughter still remembers the building when her father designed it. in fact, it was advertised as the kind of grevious space to be and all of the apartments were furnished. and i mean, i remember coming here as a child and seeing the carpet on the roof is going up in the duplexes, which i thought was just the most beautiful thing i've ever seen. the skyscraper is now inhabited by middle and working class people from all over africa. slowly the
11:35 am
point to is shutting off its reputation of silence and thanks tourism becoming a beacon of hope for many. oh boy is adamant at lunch. it creates genuine opportunities with kind of freaking use in the country with growing sort of food here and not just promoting poverty porn. i grew up here and photo for guy to challenge. it also grew up in disabled. so we don't look at this as sort of resume, but then as us showing people our neighborhood and we are, our goal is to build bridges and creates and understanding on what's hooper is. and we consider that to be at the opposite of what provide support is july june has welcome over 25000 visitors since 2012 and has high hopes for the future. and high hopes for the future is exactly what our next story shows. 10 years ago, a 1000 kind of shillings that's about $6.00 could easily get me
11:36 am
a month shopping. now the same amount with barely get me enough shopping for 2 weeks. the cost of living has gone so high that young they will be and have decided the city is no longer going to break their hats. so they're moving away from the city and the closer to the food source. let's follow it is to money and find out whether this plan worked. on a cold warning in the outskirts of ne ruby laptops, not the apartments, the trends, melody 10, a got and move to the share. the 3 creative on to bring us take the time to catch up as we prepare breakfast. and of course, the recorded the experience for social media. just over a year ago, the 20 something year olds chose to relocate outside the capital as a way to save money and to escape the seeking skills. however, the country we simply double the tax and fuel increased health insurance and
11:37 am
introduced to housing levy. these changes have thrown the house switch plans off costs, and now they're making some tough decisions. when we get like a really good, good we get really good income. we shuffle many things in bulk. so that's a decision we had made in advance cause where like things like oil we would be cheap but you would just invest know, buying bulk and have it for months. the cost of electricity is clean up. maybe what remains the same red racial of are you having discussions amongst itself is a um, notice comes up, you say like okay, it may be too bad. it's also too quick but and things are going higher. so maybe it's just bits of a bone size and move back today will be. so that's been on the list. so it's something we actually planning to do, hopefully this month or next month. as the increased cost of living is also affecting the interactions with $1.00 another, obviously when people are living together as you are as a family and running a business as well, that can usually be some tension because of money. has that happened to you guys?
11:38 am
yeah. but at the end of the day, we learned how to communicate. i can't express how we haven't gotten to better these. that's communicating whether we are fighting, whether it's at work, whether someone has done something wrong. we've gotten to a place where i can have a discussion about each and the points it wants to make. one of us went to move with the next month. the financial pressure for young people in the country is being felt beyond this apartment, latest government, because we view the highest number of those unemployed in kenya between 20 to 24 years old. for those, it's limited options. and to government protests have become a critical way to get the voices hud for tgm eliza. however, the response to the toughening economic times has been to get tougher the couple of photographer and may come on just having to dig deeper to keep the business afloat . has that changed or you having to put
11:39 am
a more capital just to keep the business funding? definitely because um that's some cheap meeker products. sure. like over the counter products that you get to select is actually worth how you want to make up to look. so i'd rather go like, just spend a lot of cash, extra cash, and just to get, you know, products that's much more worthy of like, just don't want to mess up people's faces and do your clients. and those times you, when you raise the cost of some of them do understand, but other people question, you know, of course, like can you just discounts, you know, but know, like, i feel like i be understand regardless, cuz everyone is everybody has to raise the rates in this economy, that way you're going and coming back to the sort of domestic setup. when you guys moved out and moved in together, you obviously had some ideas of what you would be doing together. your time spent. maybe going on holidays have some of those things have to adjust because of just
11:40 am
how things are in the economy. yeah. some of the things are just when is we, you know, just thinking about how you have to save you money and moving around. no, you really don't want to look at the luxury things and say, oh, i'm going to do this and then come back home and worry about rental you bought food . cuz obviously the money is not enough to do both at times. and even when it comes down to things like equipment, you know, all the heavy tech solutions and stuff that's been going on, you can, it's making it so hard to bring insights cause you end up being a crazy, crazy what fee. and on top of what you're paying for the gates of which you have the most people know that photography. and again, this is extremely expensive. so it's been spent, most of the couple has now decided to go into retail opening and online shop that sells jewelry. as a week to supplement that income for them, waiting for government or things to get easy, it is not an option. all right, for you again, bye. so that we have it,
11:41 am
