I grew up in different parts of Africa. I grew up in Mozambique and places like that. I've been in South Africa many times.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
South Africa is a whole other world. I went to grade school there and high school in Johannesburg, and before that, my family lived in Kenya in Nairobi where my brother was actually born, and my sister was born in Capetown. I spent the first 10 years of my life in South Africa.
I feel no bond with South Africa, which is curious, since South Africa is where I was born.
People wonder why I love Africa so much. I say this is where I was born and raised. My roots are in Africa; that's were I developed.
I go back to Africa every year. I have a home there. You know, my grandfather lives back there in Cameroon.
I lived in South Africa until I was 11 when we first immigrated. My mom had sent me back there when I was 14 for summer vacation. I wasn't doing very well in school, my grades were slipping. I called my mom one day and told her that I wasn't coming back. I ended up staying there until I was 17 before coming back to North America.
I was practically born in Cameroon; my family moved there when I was two weeks old.
I live in South Africa. I'm proud to live there. I've always said I want to be a comedian from South Africa in the world. I will stay in places for a bit here and there and pop into New York for a while, maybe stay in London for a year, but my home will always be South Africa. I enjoy it too much.
I've spent quite a bit of time in East Africa.
I grew up in Sudan and Kenya, and lived in both the rural and urban centers of both countries throughout my life.
I've been to North Africa many times.
