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 thing 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. we agree even back when it keeps me architect to road me. prescott design it off market space with over $400.00 apartments, posting retail shopping on the ground level, something almost unheard of 50 years ago. his daughter still remembers the building winters thought it designed to in fact, it was advertised as the kind of previous space to be in 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 beautiful thing i have ever seen. the skyscraper is now inhabited by middle and working class people from all over africa. slowly,
1:35 pm
the point to is shutting off its reputation of violence and against arisen becoming a beacon of hope for many mobile is adamant that land jake creates genuine opportunities with kind of freaking use in the country with growing sooner. phobia and not just promoting poverty porn. i grew up here and for the fall guide to challenge it also grew up in disabled. so we don't look at this as sort of the same . but then as us showing people our neighborhood and we have our goal is to build bridges and creates and understanding on what the hell is. and we consider that to be at the opposite of what to 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
1:36 pm
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 that. so then moving away from the city and 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 record, 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 speaking skills. however, the country, we simply doubled the tax and fuel increased health insurance and introduced the
1:37 pm
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 schools where like things like oil. we be cheap but to just invest now buying bulk and have it for months. the cost of electricity clean up maybe would be the same rent medical up are you having discussions amongst itself is a um notice comes up to say like, okay, it may be cheaper. its else looks to quite fun 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?
1:38 pm
yeah. but at the end of the day, we learned how to communicate. i can't express how we've got and that's a better space. that's communicating whether we are fighting with a such 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 want 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 tough with the couple of photographer and may come out just having to dig deeper to keep the business afloat. has that changed?
1:39 pm
are you having to put in more capital just to keep the business funding? definitely because um that's some cheap mika products. sure. like over the counter products that you get to select, essentially worse 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 i don't want to mess up people's faces and do your clients understand you and you raise the cost of some of them do understand, but other people question, you know, of course, like can you just discount you know, but know, like, i feel like they 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 set of 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
1:40 pm
how things are in the economy. yeah, some of the things are just wanted to be, 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 that things. and even when it comes down to things like equipment, you know, all the heavy tech solutions and stuff that's been going on in kenya, he'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, most people know that photography, and the other thing is x to be expensive. so it's been spent, most of the couple has now decided to go into retail opening and online shop itself, jewelry as a week supplement, that income for them waiting for government or things to get easy. it is not an option right for you again, bye bye. so that we have it,
1:41 pm
the 3 of tv and these uh who do not key now have been able to retain that own home and live independently right now. but i'm going to speak to a young person who tells me he also had to move cities as well as houses and moved back to his mom's house. because of how, how does things have gotten economically for them? we meet market, you tongue just to see arrives like he's real estate office places. so that's the honestly yeah. it's right by the road. so every truck, every car, every, everything that passes by you just copy the dust into a space. it's going to have to live with it. he's been working here for a few months since he moved back to a ruby. after his contract job in another city came to an end. as a shows us, his new neighborhood. he tells me things have been really slow. this transition has been anything but some of the for the 27 year old. i'm trying to establish myself like getting over here. i found out the rental space. i used to have. the price was almost $1.00 and a half times higher. so i had to look for somebody,
1:42 pm

1:47 pm
century. and we're just the internet isn't that into market. it's a great watch are also caught, keep my over 60 percent of the customers are gone a while the risk held from neighboring african countries, the usa, england, and asia. they may be stylish, but at 40 to 350 years per item. they're certainly not cheap where the entities k find the watches kind of become an effort to wide phenomena. it's hard to say. only time will tell as well it's time to meet another young us. we can, who's creating ripples a ton nationally. and even global stores like ikea, a run for them money do more, could that be the top an online school? so finding sure that he's now was multi media and it still says will materials from local supplies and cuts the delivery time by half while ensuring the clients receive beautiful african inspired furniture for their homes. since 2018 how brand
