I am an old geezer quickly approaching 80 yeear olld, and since I was a kid and saw my first picture of Rio and Christ the Redeemer, I have been totally infatuated with that beautiful country. Little did I know, but my dreams never came close to the reality of Brazil. I am married to a "Carioca". A woman who was born to a British father and Italian mother in Rio de Janeiro, my "Girl from Ipanema". We now travel to Brazil at least every 2 years to visit family and discover the wonders and beauties of this fantastic country.
This video gives one of the best quick views of Brazil in a short video, but it only touches on the wonders that are there. The people are beautiful, warm and truly inviting. The scenery is amazing, and the food is not to be believed. The architecture, both old and modern, it tops in the world. If you think of Brazil as a third world country, you are extremely mistaken!
If you truly enjoy life, Brazil must be on your bucket list!!!
Thanks to the Varbros for a really great and true to the subject video.

This episode of your travel made me cry. I'm a grown man and my emotions were all over the place. For one, what the colonizers did to the Africans they stole and made slaves in their countries, in this case Brazil, sickens me. It's like no matter where we, as descendants of Africa landed, our lives were made a living hell. And for many parts of the world, we are still trying to climb out of that hell all the while being asked, "What’s the matter with you? Why can't you just pull yourselves up by your bootstraps?" The sheer will to make something out of nothing out of necessity is another common trait we share with Salvador and others in the Diaspora. What is happening in the U.S. currently with not wanting actual historical truths to be taught, is what the peoples of Salvador explained in this piece? The government had laws in place to punish people for expressing their culture and daring to want better. I could go on and on with things I took away from Salvador and juxtapose them in the U.S such as the ideal that the lighter you are, the better you are and the greater the opportunities for you, (colorism here in the States),: the majority of the people, over 80%, are people of color but have no government representation (similar to South Africa not too long ago) The parts that made me hopeful was the conversation with the people. The young lady who has dreams of being a fashion designer, the young musician who's dream was to be known and win awards for his music, and most importantly, to help other musicians.
Yarbros, you took us through a journey that I did not expect when I first started watching this installment of your travels. You continue to shed the light on cultures around the world, but just as important, the stories of the Diaspora! Thank you thank you, thank you!

So glad you're digging Brazil!!! I went to Carnaval in Rio back in 2014 and was also surprised at how diverse the population is. The people looked as diverse as folks in the USA. It's size also reminded me of the US. My friend, Ulysses Jenkins, an artist and professor at U.C. Irvine, had recommended taking the dance course, "Dancing at the Source," offered by Viver Brasil-a dance performance group in Los Angeles with roots in Salvador de Bahía. As an African American traveling through Brazil, he said, "Folks in the US have no idea how much was stolen from us." Damn. I took the 2-week course in August of 2015. (The weather's still warm in August, but not oppressively hot:) Bahía's roots are deep. I hope you get a chance to learn about the Orishas and the role women played with maintaining African religious traditions, (Candomblé). There's also an incredible female batucada group in Bahía called Dida. You've gotta check 'em out. Safe travels! Enjoy the beaches, the food, the people,,,,, todo!! xoxoxo

Thanks guys! I have been watching you guys since the early days of your channel and dreaming of leaving the US. I'm a half Mexican Chicana from San Diego, so for me, going to Mexico has felt like going home in a way. My husband on the other hand is from rural Ohio, and while he moved to California, where we met, because he never felt like he belonged he still grew up with the common belief in the midwest that America is THE place to be. I've finally convinced him that it is time to go, full stop. The writing is on the wall. Y'all know that the Cheeto made it so that Romania released the human trafficking Tate brothers so they could come back to the US?? Their miso giny and yahtzee agenda is terrifying. What can you expect from the "grapist" in chief? All I know is that unfortunately I think the fight might be lost. The empire is not recovering. I'm doing like my ancestors on both sides of my family and migrating on to better places. It is heartbreaking though....I had hoped people would wake up and stop the decline before it was too late. But I hadn't realized the scope of ignorance, miso giny and just flat out h8 in the US. All the things people have hidden for so long under guise, are now coming out in the open. This is the era of saying the quiet parts out loud. Anywho, congrats on your channel growth! Almost 150k! Knocking it out of the park with your content, love you guys ❤❤

Sorry to hear that this happened to you but it is in no way an isolated incident. I was traveling from Belize to Merida last December when I encountered a very abrasive immigration officer.
I was born in Belize but I am also a British national.
Crossing the border from Belize into Mexico, there was a HUGE back up in the immigration line to enter Mexico and only one person checking us in, a female immigration officer. A male immigration officer was walking through the office distributing the immigration forms to people in the line. Before he got to where I was in the line he approached me and asked, “Sir can I see your travel document” ? I presented him with my Belize passport and he continued issuing forms to everyone else. Now I must say, I am a very dark black man, and when I am in Belize or the Caribbean area I become even darker, we are talking Wesley Snipes dark. All the same, the other people in the like were all Belize Latinos or white Americans. NO ONE ELSE in that line if what must have been well over 100 people was asked to show any documents.
I waited my turn to get the immigration check in desk and, when it was my turn, the same male immigration officer was now helping his female colleague. I approached and presented my passport, he asked where I was going and how long I intended to remain in Mexico. His questions were more like an interrogation, very intrusive and his tone and attitude was very abrasive throughout. Eventually I produced my British passport and showed this to him without being asked and although his attitude did not change, the questions stopped and he stamped my Belize passport for entry into Mexico.
I had travelled to Mexico MANY TIMES before, coming from the UK as well as from Belize, but in all my previous visits, I had NEVER been treated like this, although I have seen other dark skinned Belizeans complain on social media about similar experiences in Mexico before.
So yes people, it is real and black travelers are being singled out for harassment when traveling to Mexico.

Congratulations on choosing to explore the mesmerising wonders of Northeast Brazil! It's truly a remarkable destination for any person of colour seeking tranquilly and harmony in this beautiful country. While I acknowledge that every region in Brazil has its own unique charm, the Northeast stands out for its vibrant culture and rich heritage, boasting the highest population of black individuals in the entire nation. So, for those yearning for an authentic experience and a deeper connection to Brazil's Afro-Brazilian roots, the Northeast is an ideal place to be. Rest assured, both the South and Northeast have their own distinctive allure, but the Northeast's cultural diversity and strong Afro-Brazilian presence make it an absolute must-visit.
During my time in Porto Alegre, located in the southern region of Brazil, I had a challenging time locating African products such as makasera (cassava) and yam, which are plentiful in Pernambuco. As a Fulani person originating from West Africa, my cultural palate has a deep appreciation for couscous, and I must say that Pernambuco offers the most extraordinary cuscuz de milho (corn couscous) in the world. The remarkable abundance and quality of these traditional ingredients and dishes in Pernambuco truly make it a culinary paradise for individuals like myself who have a profound fondness for African flavours and traditions. I miss my bairro, Engenho do Meio, in Recife

This is a very interesting conversation. Thanks for contributing to it. These are complex topics but in my opinion, racism and classism in Mexico are dynamic and changing... 20 years ago people would for the most part accept the status quo... but people are now becoming more aware of how different forms of oppression work and they are more willing to question them...
I, as a Mexican and an outsider to the US, observe differences between the US in Mexico. I am no expert on the US, but what I see is that the US is a society very much based on segregation. People are still classified based on their ethnic background. As a Mexican, it is shocking for me, for instance, that you have forms where you have to declare what your ethnic background is when you apply for a job. People in the US claim that it's for statistical purposes but in my opinion, this perpetuates the labels, the categories, and ultimately, the segregation of different groups... So it is really shocking for me to see that. Also, to hear people say things like "I am a white guy"... of course we see the color of the skin but for a person to make that claim that, as if it was a social identity, it is kind of weird for me.
What I think is that the differences between Mexico and the US were shaped in colonial times. Both countries were colonies of European powers, the US being a colony of Britain and Mexico being a colony of Spain. However, the forms of colonization were completely different. The British for the most part wiped out the natives or confined them to reserves. The black people that were brought to the US were enslaved. It was illegal for Europeans to inter-mix with other groups. Some people did mix I guess, but it was a small minority as it was a taboo or illegal. In contrast, a lot of Spaniards who arrived to Mexico intermixed with the natives. Some full-Spanish families, known in Mexico in colonial times as "criollos", also settled in the country and held a lot power and this created a "racial" hierarchy but not as rigid as the one in the US. But there were a lot of differences between the rich and the poor in Mexico and these differences have a legacy in today's society. There was also slavery in the Spanish colonies, not so much in Mexico, but in the Caribbean mostly, but Slavery ended earlier in Spanish colonies.
In today's Mexico indigenous peoples suffer from discrimination and poverty and many Mexicans more than openly racist are apathetic towards that reality... A lot of Mexicans don't want to think about that, they are "lazy", but for the most part, they are not openly racist nor hateful. Some more privileged Mexicans are uptight or condescending... but some of them, a minority, are aware of their privileges and they want to see social changes too. And finally, there are Mexicans who are all about power and domination, and like in other societies, they have to be held in check.
Anyway, these conversations are very interesting and relevant. I believe that open conversation helps us to get to know each other, and you said, bring understanding. I really like your T-shirt Rondell, because I believe in solidarity too!!. I really like your channel and I am happy to learn that you enjoy life in Mexico. Love from a mexicana :)

I've been watching all your videos here in Brazil, and it's really cool to see how much you're really interested in culture, history, in really getting to know the country and our people.
Mano Brown, the singer, is a very important guy, he never sold himself to the system, he always made music against the system, he also has a podcast on You Tube, Mano a Mano.
Unfortunately racism still exists all over the world, with this growth of the right it has increased even more, however, we see a lot of people fighting against it, movements against racism and laws to punish it have been applied, people denouncing it, people have been arrested for acts and racist speeches, here in Brazil it is a crime. It is unacceptable that such a horror as racism still exists.

I'm loving your energy and the content, it's fun and informative. Many people in the world don't know much about Brazil, most know about Rio de Janeiro, soccer, carnival... place we have to be careful, however, I think that all the wonders we have here make up for any negative point, we are a people who love to receive people, make friends, show our culture, come and enjoy!!!!

The "Class" would be based on a number of things: Having money and the colour of the skin are probably the obvious ones, but not the main ones. I'd say that the way you dress, the way you talk, how smart you seem to be or the education you have, are more important in "fitting you into a class". (I didn't say that it doesn't matter, off course it does, it's just that it's not the only or the main ones).
You belong to the high class when the people that belongs in the high class considers that you belong to their circle. Even if they still make fun of you for whatever thing you have that doesn't fit the bill.
You can totally have dark skin and still look like high class and get whatever perks you get for being in that club.
If you have dark skin and are poor as well... that's harder to pull it off, but one of those perks is that you can be friends with high class people, and surely they can help you to find a better job.
Another way to look at it, is that we mexicans the darker the skin we have, it means that we come from more generations with low self-esteem, and that means that anybody assertive enough looks superior in our eyes. It's really hard to break that mold, but if you manage to break it (low self-esteem) and look assertive enough, you can fool people into believing you're higher class and get the perks...

RESPECT is the key word.
My neighbors are people from the US, when my wife and I go to our hometown for vacations, we usually bring some stuff to them, we appreciate people, no matter where they´re from. We are just people living under the same sun, of course you´ll see bad things in the country, same as everywhere but, good things always will be better. Enjoy your life down here and try to learn as much as you can from the locals, even if it means to try things you wouldnt even think of doing before you came here, we appreciate the effort. That means food, visiting places and just a friendly "Buenos días, buenas noches"
RESPECT.

As I have traveled I have asked and wished for the same thing. I think a major reason why black Americans don’t travel is because of slavery and all of the trauma we experienced there after. We were afraid to travel to certain states in our own country let alone the world. So the fear of the unknown, questions about racism and wondering how we will be received in other countries is REAL. At least, this was how I felt when I first began traveling abroad. Not to mention all of the socioeconomic disparity that was caused by that evil institution. Black people adopted the hustle culture - everything being about money, working two or three jobs just to stay afloat. Out of that came the poverty mindset, a state of lack, believing that you can’t. There was a time when I believed that only rich people or white people could travel. Not because I was told that, but because that was all I ever saw - It goes so deep. I am happy to say that I see it changing within my generation (i am a millennial). My peers and I are traveling and exploring the world, prioritizing mental health and well being. I give thanks to platforms like Youtube and people like you for showing me what else is possible and broadening my mindset. This year I made the decision to save, quit my job and travel throughout Mexico 🇲🇽, and much of that is because I was inspired by your channel and other travelers sharing their journey on the platform….Anyways, I can go on and on on this topic. Thank you for bringing this discussion to the forefront.

We have lived in Puebla and enjoy it but miss CDMX. Anyway, don't judge Puebla by the historic center of town, this IS a metropolis, a center of business and technology. I suggest you head out towards Angelopolis which is the modern side of town. Skyscrapers, modern buildings and luxury malls, homes and apartments. A city of schools too, all kinds from the Catholic Schools to German Insititute, Oxford and more plus large universities with global certifications. One of the great things about the area is all the small towns all around, each with traditions, artisans, specialties, so you go "puebleando" from one to another...The weather here is more stable than in CDMX, cool and sunny. Cholula is just down the road.

@TheYarbros that is so true, the micro aggressions are horrible, this happens in the whole country but in the south is even worse. If i could explain to you the politics of Brazil in a way for you to undertand, it is like the northeast of Brazil votes for the democrats and the south votes for the republicans. And the south has more groups of na zi. The more you go north, the less you will experience racism and aggressions, but still exists in all states, even in the state of Bahia which has the biggest % of black people. That is really sad but we are changing it slowlly. We are lucky that racism is a crime in Brazil and homophobia became a crime which is inside the law against racism, its been 4 years now. What we need to do now is to educate the population, and we are doing it. The last 6 years was dificult because of the rise of fascism, people getting dived, polarization, even in their own familly. But we will make people get together and teach them to love. I have faith that we can do it. Thank you for honest opinion and pov.

When I was a girl, I really hated my curly black hair, because the kids from the elementary school tend to make fun of me, for reference, I was the only girl in my classroom with thick curly hair.
When my grandmom died, a relative told me about the existence of an African ancestor. As a Mexican, I didn’t know about this important 3rd root until my grandmom died, and it makes sense, because my grandmom had a dark skin and thick curly hair.
Through the years, I have been learning how to take care of my hair, and feel proud about how I look.

Thank you for the attention and affection that speak of Brazil. There are many other places as beautiful and different as Paraty (RJ), Ouro Preto (MG), Bonito (MS), Pomerode (SC), Foz do Iguaçu (PR), Maceió (AL), Natal (RN), Parnaíba (PI ), Jericoacoara (CE), and much more. Have fun, welcome! And take memories, affections and the desire to return to our country. 😊🌻

Hello Yarbros!
Your video about Nairobi is just incredible and I am so glad to see that you have captured the spirit of the city in a very detailed and authentic manner. It is so amazing to see how both of you are able to get to the heart of the culture and vibrance on offer in the capital of Kenya while sharing your own unique outlook!
Now that you have visited places such as Karura Forest, Giraffe Center, Kibera, Bomas of Kenya, let me suggest a few more that you may consider going to:
Nairobi Arboretum: An ideal place for nature walks and bird watching with picnic spots under green trees.
Kazuri Beads Factory: This is a wonderful place to see first hand, the cottage industry of the manually produced beads and all of the people that sell do it to help locals.
Brown’s Cheese Farm: This is a perfect place where you can escape to the countryside to find out how cheese is made and to enjoy farm to table dinners.
It is absolutely great to see how well you two fit together as a couple, and I love seeing travel, art, culture, and storytelling all together in one video. I wonder what is your next adventure, but be sure to post incredible content as always.

I am a white Mexican female, from a socially prominent family who just by the way I look would get privileges and an easier way BUT then I would get hit with the machismo and condescending attitudes that "be pretty but not too smart". Naturally I rebelled. Hahahaha
I am from an enlightened family, very democratic BUT... you better not cross the lines and stay where you belong. I grew up with a Nanny that followed me around with an umbrella so I wouldn't get any sun (ordered by my grandmother who was very Victorian), I was sent to Finishing School, etc. yet I paid my own way through 3 master's (very much against my family because who wants a smart female) worked in the US and around the world and ended up being a Chef with 7 restaurants yet I was looked down on for providing a "service" (like the help),,, Of course I married "beneath me", I knew all the wealthy jerks and no way! But I can tell you that we are not Mexican enough for Mexico and not Gringo enough for the US and yes, I've been discriminated IN THE US! Followed out of the market for speaking Spanish (we are all 100% fluent in various languages and have double citizenship, and yes my family is Spanish from way back) and I was the first to win a employment discrimination lawsuit against a former employer with the EEOC!
Now we do not feel nor act "entitled" but many of our neighbors do, they don't even talk to the cleaning people, security people, etc. and they don't get as much attention and regard as we do just being nice to people. We've always lived well (fortunately) in every country we've ever been to, we travel a lot. I am now retired and a widow, my youngest son came to live with me and we are now travel companions and have a great time and I always taught my children to be educated, well mannered, kind and considerate to ALL (and they are, really great people I am proud to say). Be well, enjoy your travels in our enchanting country!

This might enter into the "negative category" from your POV, but there´s something you need to give it a thought and that for some reason you´ve been unable to appreciate it, maybe because of the language barrier. Anyway, just like people from any other parts of the world, most Mexicans are not aware of the rich history of our country, which is a shame, because basically every single Mexican is proud of being a Mexican, and if they knew more about our history, that sentiment would be even stronger. Something that I find interesting about our culture is how the Mexican society "evolved" differently from our neighbors from the North, and fortunately, we don´t really care about ethnicity. Do we have a colonial hangover?... sure, but we do know Mexicans are under a very wide spectrum of skin color and features that we don´t even bother to put on labels like "African- Mexican", "White-Mexican", "Chinese-Mexican", "Arab-Mexican" and all that kind of bull$#¡+ Americans care about. Besides all of our problems, there´s one thing that unite us and keep our bonds strong, and that´s Mexico. It´s not Africa, nor Europe, nor Asia nor any of those countries/territories we share historical ties with, not even the ancient Aztec Capital Tenochtitlán. The point I want to make is that "Black history" in Mexico is not under appreciated or whatsoever, is just unknown for many like any other historical fact. It´s not that "someone" is hiding us the truth, it´s just that people don´t care enough about history. I´m from Veracruz, so as you may already know, here at the south the "so-called black history" is far from being unfamiliar. We see it everyday in our families, friends and communities. It´s part of our Mexican and Mestizo heritage. And we´re mestizos because long time ago we decided to become one. That´s why is basically impossible to find "ethnic-specific communities" between our cities and towns. Though, in the most recent history, guess who is creating this kind of communities... foreigners!, but that´s off topic. I know this may be controversial due to our cultural backgrounds, but I´m just trying to give some actual, real and first hand context. Hope you keep enjoying Mexico. Peace.

Hi guys, another video that is amazing! I visited Salvador in April for a few days and it is really a different place. It has a vibe, a joy in the air, even with so much poverty and misery, an intensity? it's mystical. Besides, the sunsets crossing the "Baia de Todos os Santos" are incomparably beautiful.
This issue of Brazilians not speaking English is really a difficulty, because education in Brazil is still precarious. Everyone studies English in school, and some Spanish as well, but the method is bad, the commitment is low, and the result, as you have experienced, is the lack of mastery. But Brazilians have this will to help others, to understand foreigners, and to welcome the different, which helps to overcome these difficulties.
I really intend to go back to Salvador, Bahia, the land of my ancestors, and get to know more of the city and of these happy people.
Best Regards!

Blackface is not a thing in Ecuador. That's a US american concept that does NOT exist here. No, this is not disrespectful at all for the afro community. Plus, Mama negra is NOT an indigenous tradition, it is a mestizo people tradition instead, from the city of Latacunga. Legend says after Cotopaxi eruption, the whole town saw a big black woman dressing in golden thread skirts, dancing and thanking the virgin of Mercy. Mama Negra each year is a selected man from the wealthy society of Latacunga, and he's always surrounded by his whole family, who spend a lot of money in 'uniforms' i.e. They try to dress the same. His retinue (the folk characters from this tradition) are selected from the wealthy spheres of Latacunga also, they have to spend a lot of money for this. Video you were watching is from a venezuelan guy exploring Ecuador and he's also knowing the festival, so some little data might be erroneous. I recommend you this 35 minute video filmed by the family of Mama Negra 2014, which has more precise footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mU3Rgmd52o

Ótimo vídeo. Eu tenho conhecimento que realmente isso aconteceu, dos escravos de pele negra não receberem terras, diferentes do japones e outros imigrantes que vieram e também trabalharam com muito esforço aqui. Isso já criou uma desigualdade gigante. O ricos brancos ficaram com a maior parte financeira no país, quando qualquer reforma agraria era tentada no país, diziam que era comunismo, as elites escravocratas com uso de fundamentalismo religioso, convenceu sempre a população em seus discursos. Tenho conhecimento que até num país tão capitalista como EUA, teve essa reforma antigamente. Aqui nem isso tivemos. Tivemos ditadura, mas tem todo um revisionismo historico e extremismo aflorado atualmente. Eu sei desse discurso do vídeo, tenho conhecimento que o racismo aqui é real, estrutural, te tratam diferente de acordo com sua pele, mesmo que não seja declarado. As vezes nem nós mesmos percebemos o preconceito em nós. Só que muitos estão se sentindo legitimados a usarem discursos racistas novamente. Colocando na questão, como se a pessoa de pele preta fosse menos competente. Não só nisso, mas usam esse mesmo discurso para inferiorizarem as mulheres. Porém, mesmo tendo conhecimento de tudo isso e do discurso desse vídeo, conhecendo em parte dessa realidade dura do Brasil, ainda continuo aprendendo sobre meu país. Ele é muito grande, complexo culturalmente, então existem realidades diversas, conforme mais aprendo sobre cada região, o que cada pessoa fala em cada canto desse país, entendo mais um pouco e não é simples de explicar. Só que ainda atualmente, acho que a diversidade no país, é uma das nossas maiores riquezas, tornou-se assim. Obviamente sem os extremismo. Mesmo que talvez seja um discurso um pouco diferente do vídeo. Mas não ignoro essas questões todas levantadas. Talvez eu mude essa visão, mas é o que eu sinto. Acho que muito da população ao ver esses vídeos sobre o Brasil, começa a entender ainda mais sua riqueza tbm. Pois temos uma questão muitas vezes de nos achar menos, em certa parte por termos sido tão explorados de maneira ruim de todas as formas, mas acho que com isso podemos ver o que temos de riqueza e onde podemos melhorar. Conhecendo as diferenças culturais tbm. Eu acho que realmente é isso. Não sei se verei as coisas melhorarem muito no futuro aqui, não sei se teria essa esperança, mas queria que acontecesse. Afinal o país é rico de diversas maneiras especiais. Obrigado por mais uma produção sensacional no vídeo. Um abraço de mais um Brasileiro aqui. Desejo mais paz para o mundo e união.

11:51 Chimarrão is the name given in Portuguese to an infusion that in Spanish is called mate (because is made with the crushed leaves of a tree called yerba mate).
Yerba mate (ilex paraguariensis) grows naturally in the southwestern region of the Atlantic Rainforest (a jungle that originally stretched from parts of southern Brazil, northeastern Argentina and eastern Paraguay, to northeastern Brazil, always around the Atlantic coast; and today only 3% of its original territory remains).
Mate/chimarrão contains caffeine and is drunk in Argentina, the extreme south of Bolivia, southern Brazil, southern Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay and, for several decades now, Lebanon and Syria. Today there are yerba mate plantations in northeastern Argentina, southern Brazil and eastern Paraguay; where they let the yerba mate grow to the size of a large bush and no more than that. Also, is the only region in the world where this is produced.
Supposedly the Guaranis were the first tribe to prepare this infusion, using hollow gourds as a container where they placed the crushed leaves of yerba mate and hot water. It was through this people that Spanish and Portuguese learned about the infusion, but it seems that other ethnic groups in the region, such as the Kaingang (that were living in the area since much before Guaranis arrived from the southern part of the Amazonic jungle), already chewed the leaves of that tree before mate was created as an infusion.
The current container where the crushed leaves are placed is called the same as the infusion (chimarrão/mate), and after the herb is placed, hot water is served (just for a sip) and drunk through a metal straw. Every time that a small amount is drunk, the hot water (which is usually contained in a thermo) is served again and it is drunk again, and so it is repeated until there is no more water.

Viva! Loved that you went to Olinda. (Didn't love that much the Bolsonaro 👺giant doll).
That part the painter was trying to explain, about the Rosary Church, is interesting. Back in the. days, everyone belonged to a church (that's why there are so many of them). One would belong to a certain church according to social status, profession etc. Throughout the Portuguese speaking world there is always a Lady of the Rosary church, which was the Black people's church. There were free black men and women, who joined in a brotherhood, and usually would chip in to buy emancipation to enslaved men. In these churches there would always be altars to black saints, such as Saint Benedict and Saint Kaleb of Axum (Elesbão). There was a considerable amount of free black men in the 17th and the 18th century. One of them was Henrique Dias who, along with native Brazilian Felipe Camarão and Portuguese Vidal de Negreiros, is considered a national hero for expelling the Dutch (sort of).

I'm glad you two brought up the elephant in the room, or Mexico! Cancun is not my vibe, never was, and never will be. It's my son's scene. He doesn't go to Mexico for the culture though - he goes for the drinks and the beach. PERIOD. If I wanted to hang out with a bunch of blitzed gringos, hell, I'd go to Vegas. (Not a fan of Vegas). I was in Cancun last year around this time, only for some ocean swimming...it was more in my budget coming from Guadalajara, than Puerto Vallarta. I went downtown and I got a totally different vibe than I had in the past. Been several times, because if I want to vacay with my son, we go to Cancun. Last year people were hostile, unfriendly: Not welcoming. I'm not saying it should be canceled...but I'm not interested in ever going back. I"m a Puerto Vallarta gal 100%. Plenty of awesome beaches to choose from. Mazatlan is amazing as well, might I suggest Stone Island? Boat taxi to the island...wonderful swimming and open air restaurants!

Of these two cities QUITO and Cuenca, I would definitely choose Quito because from Quito I can fly easily inside and outside of Ecuador.
In addition to good restaurants, boutiques, shops, museums, bookstores and etc, also here are the main governmental and cultural institutions
of Ecuador and embassies of other countries in the world, which facilitate the processing of documents are needed. For these and other reasons,
QUITO is the best for me. Nice video, The YARBROS are the best, too!

Brazil is very diverse in culture and ethnicities, the south region is predominantly white people, the southeast region is a mixture of all ethnic groups, the northeast region people brown and black, being more common in the state of bahia where most black people are concentrated from brazil, north region native people (indians), central west region is a mixture of south and southeast.
The culture is immense, each Brazilian state has its identity, its history, its way of speaking (accent), food.
São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are the best known cities in Brazil around the world, it makes sense for people from other countries to visit these cities, but if you want to really get to know Brazil you will have to go deeper and get to know the other regions and fall in love for our country even more.

I love all three countries, but talking about crazy people, it’s getting out of hand going to any social media and seeing stories/reels from Americans calling the police on other people because of racial profiling, people harassing service providers for the sake of views on TikTok, people getting offended for things that has nothing to do with them, but the worst is the amount of crazy people talking about conspiracy theories, flat earthers, geo centrists, people distrusting society and science in general as if everything and everyone was against them.
As a Brazilian I can see that this is something that’s been growing here too, I can’t say anything about Mexico, but I don’t see them posting videos doing the same crazy stuff, but Americans, OMG, it is 80% of social media content. I’m glad I find people like you guys that are really good, reasonable, open, sensitive, smart, curious about the world and willing to share the truth.
Thank you for the great content you guys gift the world!!

The biggest fail I remember was traveling to Iceland when I was a teenager. I was with my younger brother and my Dad. At one point we traveled to the far north of the island nation, nearest the arctic circle. It was a quaint, clean village with nice European buildings and brick paved streets. No one spoke a word of English. Did I mention we didn't even know how to say hello in Icelandic? Of course we had been driving all day and we were hungry. We stopped at a nice little restaurant to try and order a late lunch, but couldn't read the menu. Our waitress tried but could not speak English. She left and returned and said what my brother and father thought was "hot dog". Of course they said, 'yeah, we'll have that.' I knew better. A country like Iceland is not going to have hot dogs, especially not in a small fishing village on the coast. Plus there was a fish logo on the restaurant sign when we entered. I realized that she was saying "Haddock" as in the fish. Embarrassed, they thought she said hot dog, I explained to my brother and father that she was describing a fish dish. We ended up agreeing to whatever she was recommending. It was, to this day, the best fish au gratin (apparently with Haddock) that I ever had.

Some suggestions: Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Djavan, Milton Nascimento, Lenine, Ana Carolina (search on You Tube for her singing live with Seu Jorge), Elis Regina (Como Nosso Pais) and Elis Regina and Tom Jobim singing Águas de Março, Alceu Valença (La Belle de Jou), Zé Ramalho (Chão de Giz, Admirável Gado Novo), Alcione, Chico Buarque, Alcione, Gonzaguinha (É o que é, this is practically a Brazilian anthem), Luiz Gonzaga (Asa Branca) , Chitãozinho and Xororó (Evidências - another song that is an anthem, old, but we all know the lyrics, I think it's in the collective unconscious), search for MPB (Brazilian Popular Music), we have an infinity of singers, rhythms, I hope you like our music.

Thanks for getting this info out there. As I traveled Latin America by motorcycle, I always asked locals, extapts and other travelers what the security situation was in areas I was heading into. Security, whether electronic or physical, is a constantly shifting ocean of risk. Sometimes it is calm and shallow, other times hash and tumultuous. It always pays to check where the tide is at.
I expect that we will carry small pepper sprays, as well as looking unwealthy, not carrying large cash or credit cars, no jewelry, etc. You can't reprevent everything. Letting those observing you know that you are predicting trouble, watching them back and may be ready to no be an easy mark seems to help. Not saying to project rage like a Proud Boys asshat. Just know your periphery. We're still coming down.

What an amazing video, I discovered the channel today and I already loved it. Racism in Brazil is very cruel, we live practically in an apartheid, house of the masters (center, metropolis) and house of the enslaved (favelas, peripheries). Silvio Almeida, current minister of human rights, has a book called 'structural racism', which is very enlightening and detailed. Anyway, I loved you, hugs from Brazil

You're speaking the truth in this video.
As a first generation Mexican/Latino American in Texas; culture, money, and fear definitely ring a bell.
First of all, had single mom (dead beat unemployed ex) with 6 kids, who put the fear in us to keep the family close.
Culturally most Mexicans families don't stray too far from each other and live near by (same street, neighborhood, town). Cultural likeness (language/food/celebrations/etc.) plus, safety in numbers.
In America, we're indoctrinated and enslaved by the "American Dream" by obtaining a college degree, be career driven, work hard/long hours and acquiring debt.
If you're able to save, then you can retire into the "Golden Years."
The "Golden Years" should be when you are healthy and young enough to travel and enjoy life, not when you're old and raggedy.
I agree with you that U.S. speaks ill of other countries so Americans will stay and spend their money at home.
Keep the truths coming.

I love how you share all this great information and personal opinion about Ecuador, this country definitely has to improve in Safety and criminality, after that, I believe Ecuador is one of the most beautiful and complete countries around the globe, at the moment I'm living in Florida, but working hard to get an apartment by the Republica del Salvador Avenue in Quito, probably in couple years, for now just visiting every 6 months, and enjoying every stay. Please people if are you seeing this message, don't be afraid, visit Ecuador and its tourist places and you will not regret it, just don't forget, do not be so trusting and do not go to unknown places, Ecuador has a lot to offer, and if you like it, you can stay to live, we have the dollar and the visa process is very easy. All you need is Ecuador.

Hello, April and Rondell! I've been watching your videos for the last few weeks and I have to get something off my chest: I love your videos! I grew up in Mexico until I was 12 and my mother grew up in a small town not too far away from Querétaro. The last time I was there was in 2005 for a visit. The things I like about them are the great shots, the amount of research you both have done on the places you've visited, the locations, wonderful narrations, and your warm and energetic attitudes. You two look like the kind of people I want to meet up with regularly for a meal or a drink at a restaurant and chat for hours. Living here just outside of Houston, TX, I get a little jealous that you are in such great historical and cultural places. Above all, I like the videos you have done on Guadalajara and Querétaro so far. If there is another city that I would also suggest to visit and do a video about it, I would recommend San Luis Potosi. It's smaller than Guadalajara and Querétaro, but it's still very charming. I used to live there from 1993 to 1996 and I have fond memories of it. Anyways, I look forward to your future videos and I have already subscribed to your channel. Cheers!

Sooooo glad to see you address this and ask good questions! Coming from the US, the relationship with the African heritage in Ecuador can feel shocking. I shared your curious 'horror' with seeing this festival for the first time and the lack of questioning regarding blackface. I agree with your initial conclusions that folks aren't being disrespectful nor have they considered it....HOWEVER, There are other, more disturbing depictions in Ecuadorean culture-The logo for the fast food franchise -Menestras del Negro and there's a person in blackface on the Sunday evening comedy show No-Ticias on Teleamazonas. (Type in cast of No-Ticias on Teleamazonas-images and you'll see....) Ask anyone in Ecuador the term they have for folks from the coast and they'll all likely respond with 'monos'. (There are equally offensive terms the people from the coast have for people in the highlands though too...) The most respectful and prominent depictions of Afro culture today: Check out Neise Dajomes-the first woman ever to earn an Olympic gold medal. She's amazing and has done a lot to elevate the conversation regarding heritage/culture. (Her parents are Colombian.) And there's Hellen Quiñones, the prominent journalist on TeleAmazonas.
As for Catholic saints and processions, etc. when I was reading more about the Easter processions in Quito, I came across an insightful article that stated how the Catholic church stressed the processions and theatrical presentations/public displays of faith in places where they were most afraid that the previous beliefs would return. It's a form of control.
For more on synchretism with Catholicism, check into information on the orishas. Those roots are more strongly present in Latin culture in Cuba, Colombia and Brasil.
And I keep recommending the former President Osvaldo Hurtado's book on the Customs of Ecuadorians. He offers a lot of insight on the role the Catholic church played on the culture and education. The geography of Ecuador also kept it very isolated for many many years, which could explain why a festival like Mama Negra has continued without being questioned....Peace and love to you both!!! Thank you, as always, for your insight. Shine a light....! xoxo

Hello April and Randall, nice to see you guys having fun in Gramado, wow last time i checked you all were in Salvador, I guess I have been too busy recently; anyways, let me tell you all a little about other towns just like Gramado and canela that are as beautiful and lest touristic, however thee is one that is super touristic which is Campos do Jordao in the state of Sao paulo, Brazil is filled with hidden gems like those little towns all over, you will finds cities in Minas Gerais with the older portuguese, Colonial and also german architecture, Espirito Santo, a few in the Northeast where the Dutch Brazil colonized, but you all get visit the back lands/ mountais of Pernambuco, Bahia and Goias, and there are hundreds of them in Santa catarina, Parana and the Pampas. I truly hope youa ll enjoy the cold air or fall in the Serra Gaucha, I love the romantic aspect of winter in the sothern hemisphere, we definitelly lost this approach here in the norther side of the world.

I am not down with local and/or indigenous people being pushed out/priced out by "outsiders" with deep pockets. The locals should "equitably" benefit from it. A $1.25 minimum wage is almost insulting and not equitable; not a wage that will allow them to thrive, save, and live decently like "outsiders" do.
IMO, the problem isn’t “gentrification” alone, but an attitudinal problem that some of the rich and wealthy have that their money is a ticket to enter into depressed areas, build, develop, stretch their dollars, pay the locals insulting wages (as if they are doing them a favor), live extravagant lives while the locals cannot afford to. I have met such persons who really feel that if they give a Panamanian a job they are doing a great thing. It goes much more beyond that. How about a future? Being able to save and send their child to college? The passing on of generational wealth for Panamanians?
I have seen Expats enter into Panama and REALLY benefit THEMSELVES. I have seen areas in Panama that Expats carved out and built up for themselves and those areas do not look or feel like Panama. They look and feel like "White" towns and neigborhoods in the USA. For example, Boquete,
And, on top of that, those Expats walk around like Panama is THEIR country! These are largely - if not exclusively - rich or well off White people.
Most discussions I have had with Expats in Panama have been about "how they can benefit themselves." How THEY can save money. Start a business. Buy real estate and rental properties. It's an attitude. No discussions of pulling a poor Panamanian up by the bootstraps.
These Expats are into maintaining power, control over Panamanians and resources.
Gentrication is synomus with greed. Gentrication is a very selfish thing. It is exploitive. It is oppresive. The only ones who benefit from gentrication are those able to gentrify.
A lot of Expats in Panama have no conscience. Shame on any who think a $1.25 minimum wage is OK while they sit in their large air conditioned houses in a country not their own while their minimum wage gardner is out in the hot sun trimming their garden or their minimum wage maid cleans their toilets.

I feel that they failed to say you what is the real spirit of Guelaguetza. Guelaguetza is a Zapotec word that means “to share or to offer”. In the towns of Oaxaca, when you have a celebration, all people comes to the party with food, money, a cow, a chicken or something to help you with the expenses, they say: “te traigo mi Guelaguetza” it is the same when you have lost a relative, they come to help you with the work or the expenses of the event. They also come with their solidarity, they offer you their love. It is also Guelaguetza. The celebration of the “Guelaguetza del lunes del cerro” was born after a very powerful eartkquake destroyed Oaxaca City to give some happines to people that has lost all their properties, people of all other towns of the state came with food, with material help, but also came wih their traditions, music an dances. This the origen of the modern Guelaguetza that is presented each year. But it has a very long tradition before that.

Intersting to see a couple of americans appreciating a place like Camburiu. Some extra info about the tea (chimarrao) you guys saw at the little shop (i was born in Brazil's southernmost state Rio Grande do Sul): It was first created by the indians who were the only habitants of southern Brazil, Uruguay and parts of Argentina, until the 16th century, especially a large tribe called Charruas - wild people who lived in the southern plains and did not accept to be subordinated to the portuguese and spanish colonizers. Those indians, along with some portuguese and spanish people detached from their society made up the ethnic group known as the Gauchos - a nomadic group that inhabitated Uruguay, southern Brazil and parts of Argentina. The gaucho culture is preserved until today, with their typical outfit, dances, etc. and including Chimarrao, which is basically a digestive tea. It does NOT contain caffeine or any other substance that affects your mood. One interesting fact is: the Charrua indians learned to ride horses after they stealed some from the european settlers, and became awesome horse riders. They used leather clothing, and they ended up closely resembling the indians in the U.S. midwest like the cherokees, chinooks, comanches, etc.

Great, fun videos! Enjoyed looking at the places you guys are considering, especially since my wife and I will have a decision coming up December 1st when our lease expires. We retired from Michigan 4 months ago and chose to start in San Luis Potosi. There are many positives here (e.g. climate, affordability, centrally located, airport) but I really love the idea of being walking distance to a malecon on the Pacific Ocean or Gulf of Mexico. But man, most of those places are so darn hot and humid!! I noticed you have Puerto Vallarta on your list for example. It is very hot and humid there. Just wondering, have you guys lived in a place with extreme heat and humidity that lasts for months? La Paz has less heat and humidity overall than Puerto Vallarta, or anywhere in the Riviera Maya area, but it does get up to "sweltering" temperatures at a certain point in the middle of the summer and is extremely hot for at least 4 months. On your list of pros and cons for each place, how did you factor in the extreme coastal climate? For many people, the oppressive heat must be just an unpleasant fact that is more than offset by other positives.

Yes, people from Monterrey we are conservative and shy when we are arround to foreigners, because this is a busines and industrial city, so, the people from the beach cities and colonial towns are more chill, relaxed and more friendly than us. Btw, I hope you enjoy my city, maybe we don't have beaches, colonial towns or even pyramids or indigenous sites, Monterrey is the city with the best life quality in whole Mexico and also the most expensive one. Monterrey es su casa, amigos. ❤️

That's was a short video guys.
And yes, I am French Canadian, at the very beginning of this situation, they got me right there at " you would be able to travel", so I took the whole package, two jabs and the booster, just so I can feel free to travel, not to mention that I have spent over $500 on pcr test, which is required to take the flight back home, the whole PCR test is a big pharma business, Canadian governments is one of the few countries that treat their citizens like criminals when we decide to go on a trip outside of the country, now, what if they keeps pushing the Canadian population to get the booster over and over again... I don't know what to do think about it anymore, can't wait to get back to normal.

👍👍👍Oaxaca has it all: awesome indigenous cultures, best food in Mexico, best mezcal in Mexico, best variety of affordable beautiful handicrafts, awesome climate, somewhat affordable housing. If you can deal w/the bus/truck emissions, bad water & protests,,,it's a fantastic place to live. I couldn't: thus, short visits for me at this point, but I DO love it dearly.

Olá, me inscrevi no seu canal e, sou do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Gostei muito dos videos de Gramado e, de Balneário Camboriu, ambas, cidades que adoro.
Gostei da forma respeitosa de como vocês estão mostrando o Brasil, sem aqueles velhos clichês dos gringos que nos visitam. Parabéns.
De ruim o Nosso querido Brasil, são os políticos. Atualmente, infelizmente, temos um ladrão condenado, na presidência da República. O Brasil um dia há de ficar livre desses canalhas.

It is very interesting to hear the vision that a foreigner has of our country. It's really cool that you felt that identification, recognized yourself here. Racism has been a crime here in Brazil for some decades now, as well as other types of discrimination by gender or origin, for example, we also have many public policies, such as social and racial quotas that have been having an effect, this type of social policy has considerably increased the number of blacks with higher education, in the long run this will help to reduce social inequality. P.s.: Public (free) primary and secondary education in Brazil is of low quality compared to private education, while public universities (which are also free) are of excellent quality, but the tests you need to take to be approved to enter these Universities only students who studied in private and very expensive schools were able to enter, unfortunately the vast majority of Afro-descendants are low-income (this is a legacy from the era of slavery, because in Brazil the abolition was carried out extremely unfairly, simply putting it on the street. Remembering that Brazil was the last country to abolish slavery. We still need many, many years to end this inequality, changes are happening, there are many people in the fight, denouncing and not accepting crimes of racism, it is a start, we need to keep advancing for justice and equality. The most beautiful thing about Brazil is the diversity of peoples and cultures.

I traveled solo in El Salvador. years ago. But not being as gutsy as you two, I just went to Santa Ana, which was less edgy, even then. The problem with flying in latin america, like you guys always do, is that you usually arrive in the most unsafe city. The reason for that, in case you did not know, is that it is a tradition in villages and small towns, when they catch a criminal, to beat the living be-jesus out of him, and put him on the next bus out of town. And since all roads lead to the capital...

😊 off course you chose Quito..so would I in many ways...
I will however, when I come down, travel between 3 cities and, by doing so, hope to find out which one will be me for my retirement..
The 3 being 1. Like you Quito simply because it's a big city, 2. Cuenca....smaller but nice...not sure about all the expats there..I don't dislike other expats but, really want to get to know the Ecuadorians and, 3. A smaller town Loja...simply because of the people in the area..
Let's see . A bit different for me this time as, for the first time, I will not be moving country because of a job but, for retirement (and online jobs)...No matter what my choice will be, I look so much forward and most of all, I look forward to the Amazonas...I might end up, living in a cave somewhere in the jungle...who knows 😊
Thanks so much for sharing..

Hi guys. I'm from Latacunga, and I've seen this celebration for many years, and, like you guys, I cannot explain, or understand so many things that happen during the celebration. Nevertheless, I may contribute with some insights, hope they are useful:
1. Nobody has been able to certainly trace back the origin of the Mama Negra, which means that nobody has been able to explain in a rigorous way why there is a black woman in an Andean celebration. As a result, there exist several hypotheses around the origin, some are better studied and supported by historical data, and some others are basically ridiculous.
2. The uncontroversial fact is that this character exists in the celebration, and that there is no intent whatsoever to make fun of her, on the contrary, she is the main personage of the celebration (that is why the whole event is called La Mama Negra) even though you may not find any additional references to the Afroamerican culture (as you may find in other events in Latin America)
3. La Mama Negra, particularly in September, is not only about the dances, the costumes or the music, it is mainly about faith. In that sense, in order to get a better understanding of the celebration you need to consider that every participant feels the necessity to express his/her gratitude to the Virgin of Mercy for all the blessings received during the previous year, or, conversely, that they offer a sacrifice (like the Ashanga you see in the video) to the Virgin in order to get her mercy. Faith and religiosity are at the core of this celebration; however, they are missed by people that only see dances, costumes, and yes also liquor, and show them as the most important elements of the festival.
4. In recent years, a process of cultural appropriation has been taking place in La Mama Negra. Local elites are transforming a celebration deeply rooted in religiosity in a product aimed at attracting tourism. As a result, the celebration has been altered. For instance, many traditional costumes have been replaced by more colorful ones, even if they are alien to the original celebration. Faith and religiosity are being replaced by political intentions, and so on.
It is possible that we never know the real origin of the Mama Negra, a black woman presiding an indigenous Andean celebration, however, every year that woman brings happiness, hope and faith to so many people, and that seems to be enough for them to reproduce it every year.
Cheers

As a retired person, I keep asking myself whether it is wise to go live in a foreign country with poverty and crime just to enjoy lower prices and more bang for my retirement buck. All it takes is one "bang" from a robber and my "retirement" could be six feet underground. I am retired in Japan, perhaps the safest country on earth. I pay through the nose for health insurance, taxes, and the cost of living is quite high, but violent crime is almost non-existent. I'm not questioning anyone else's decisions, just explaining my thought process. Heck, the United States of America doesn't rank to far behind Ecuador in violent crime (USA, 56th; Ecuador, 37th; Japan, 129th).

Many identify themselves as black without being black, in fact this is because there are quotas for blacks and it is not uncommon to see people with light eyes identify themselves as black! The truth is that blacks make up less than 15% of the population, it is even more true that pardo (which is the mixture of whites with any other ethnic group, whether whites with Indians, Japanese with blacks, whites with blacks, etc.) is not black, pardo is simply pardo, but the Brazilian left, with its ideology of segregation, insists on including all those who are not white as blacks, they do this to legitimize their ideals of supremacy, because how can one explain a white child with a black being considered black even having fair skin!!
Black is black, brown is not black, simple as that!!

A regiao central de Porto Alegre infelizmente esteve bastante abandonada nos ultimos anos anos, agora esta passando por uma grande obra de recuperacao, voces devem ter oercebido que ha canteiros de obra em alguns locais do centro. Atualmente o centro nao está bonito, os pisos da rua da Praia esrao horriveis e devem ser trocados em breve, entre outras reformas. Infelizmente da forma em que ainda esta nos envergonha muito. Procurem conhecer outros bairros da cidade, nao fiquem somente no centro.
Visitem tambem outras cidades, Gramado, Canela, Torres ( no litoral), regiao das missoes, regiao sul ( Pelotas) . O Rio Grande é um estado bem diverso, cada regiao tb é completamente diferente, tem muito pra voces conhecerem.

We are Canadians living in Mexico, on the west coast. I agree costs are rising, but we chose a touristy beach city, so things are definitely on the rise. We live in a Mexican neighbourhood , bought a house a few years ago, fully aware of the drawbacks that could arise. I feel assimilation is the MOST important part of living in Mexico. Perhaps we are lucky as we have spent a lot of time in Mexico, before moving here and we are so grateful to be able to actually live here full time. We came in through Regularization, which has been extended again to the end of 2024. It seems to be Mexico’s way of letting a few of the middle class foreigners still reside here. I think people are just getting cranky all over the world, I sure don’t understand it, other than perhaps they feel safe behind the screen of Social Media, but the bitter and mean comments are a sad situation. Point being, we could not be happier living here, of course things are different and I need to improve my conversational Spanish, but our community is very welcoming and we are all fighting the rising inflation together. Mexico isn’t for everyone, but we love it and don’t plan of leaving. Thanks - been following you guys off and on for a few years now.

There has never been a repatriation of former slaves to Africa, from Brazil. However, there were several waves of former slaves, either born in Africa or from enslaved or freed parents in Brazil, who returned to Africa and relocated to a few places. These returnees were called Agudáhs, as a group, and their collective history is very sad. Many worked on the slave trade: if they were once enslaved, then they joined as part of the complex structure that facilitated the trade. Others became entrenched as a group, different from their surroundings, realizing that their experiences in Brazil had fundamentally changed them, and also considering that many of them had lost their original communities: they were left with the alternative of building their own. In Gana, Benin, and I thing somewhere else of yoruba roots, or nagô, there are still small communities where people still speak echoes of old colonial Portuguese, you can still see remnants of their old buildings. They are proof of how close Brazil was to the west Africa, from Nigeria, all the way down to fellow colony Angola, and then to the other side, Mozambique.

Beautiful and interesting descriptions of “home” for you. Funny how that changes. I used to know what home is, but my perspective has radically changed. You two really surprised me with Thailand - wow! Looks amazing. I noticed you didn’t mention Ecuador but I remember you liked it. I really appreciate you being honest about race issues and I’m sorry for your troubles. As foreign travelers, we expect to stand out some, but it’s scary & sad to be targeted. As a solo female, blending is my goal, but not always possible. In my “old age,” I’m looking a lot like Gandalf. 😒 I loved going with you through the Afro-Brazilian areas, and in the Afro-Ecuadorian part of Guayaquil - so special. Kenya is my dream since I was a little girl. And, Rwanda is gorgeous, and me being Catholic, the site of a very important holy shrine in Kibeho. I follow a few sweet Kenyans on Youtube. Would love to see you go there, and maybe… Armenia? Anyway, I can’t wait to travel…someday… until then, there’s the Yarbros brightening my days. ❤

Ha-ha-ha 😄
There's nothing like travelling 😄😄
I have learned to have a piece of paper and a glass next to my bed and, should any bug dare, trying to attack me, I simply catch him/her/it in the glass and, carry it outside, wishing it a good night.
How to catch such one: push the paper as close to it as you dare and, when it starts walking on the paper, quickly put the glass over it, carry it all outside and...bye, bye.
Once caught a queen-bee the same way and, she became so angry at me, she kept on screaming long after I released her outside my window ...huh
Thanks for triggering my memory and, for sharing 😊

Cayala would not be on my list, too much of a ‘gated’ feel/fabricated playground/north Merida, nah. Don’t get me wrong, I occasionally splurge on gourmet chef meals (foodie here), but I like the usual working class feel/neighborhoods and centros where everyone meets,,,I need more people, local culture full
of people from all walks of life, but I do ‘get it’. The homogenized-wealthy want something else—a homogenized community, it IS pretty, just weird to me.

Black folk do travel, but not necessarily off the beaten path. However, it’s not a Black folk thang, most Americans don’t travel, because the USA is exceptional. It’s the BEST!Donchaknow?! And the media spends hours lying about how dangerous other countries are, and how underdeveloped they are, how poor, and so on. Also, if Americans cannot come up with $400 in an emergency, you know Black folk have it worse. Not all, but A LOT. And Black folk experience enough racism at home, so the thinking is “I ain’t paying to go on no vacation and be treated bad, I can get that at home, and for free!” Also, this: “Only a third of American adults say they have a valid and unexpired U.S. passport (37%) – about the same percentage as those who have never had a passport at all (38%). Another one in five Americans (20%) have an expired or invalid passport.” UGOV April 2021

some people prefer going to a resort hotel kind of vacation, so you don't see them at the local market for example, here in Canada, most of my coworkers and family, they think that I'm such an adventurous man, going around the world by my self, "to some dangerous places " 😁, they prefer been safe and comfy in a all inclusive resort , and that's ok, I travel the way you guys do, for the same reasons.

It's a crying shame that the U.S. is always sticking its nose into the affairs of other countries bullying them into how they should run their country. That has really got to stop. My heart goes out to the immigrants that are being ill-treated. But there is no way that Mexico could allow them to cross into the U.S. from their border illegally. Then they would start blaming Mexico all over again as in the days of the Trump era, (actually, it was during his reign that I heard so much bad news about Mexico, to the point I thought Mexico was an impoverished, dangerous place. And then one day I stumbled across one of your videos in 2020-2021 thereabout, which made me see the beauty of Mexico and the Mexican people for the first time). It's like someone showing up at your house and saying to you, "Can I pass through the back of your house, to the next-door neighbor's house." Would it be right for a person to allow someone to do that illegally? I don't think so. But the conditions for the immigrants should be better. I don't know which is better or worse, whether sending them back where they came from, keeping them in Mexico until they get their papers sorted (giving them asylum), or letting them cross the border illegally. Perhaps someone has the answer to that.

Heeeey! You ended up going to the cities I mentioned in your previous video! That makes me so happy! And it's the best time of the year for a visit, imo... Christmas and the very peak of winter are beautiful in Gramado, but the city gets waaaay busier then, and it's much harder to book anything haha. Welcome to our sierras, my birthplace! You have been in so many places in this video that I've seen so many times, how fun it is to see your first reaction to them... I hope you had/have a grand time! Mini-Mundo definitely wakes up my inner child too, don't you worry haha. I remember eating waffles and hot chocolate the first time I was in there as a little kid, and it was *much* smaller back then. How nice to see that they kept adding new buildings to their tiny park. Btw, Canela secretly a lot of places for the practice of climbing, trekking and camping, if that's something that interests you. Going to a camp park location and sleeping under the stars, with a hot drink in my hands and a story being told around a bonfire... That is my favourite ways to spend my nights there. Safe travels!
PS: Btw, some random trivia for you: did you know that the araucária, the "odd shaped tree" w/ pinecones we have in this region is considered a "living fossil"? It's one of the few tree species in our planet w/ that title (another one from the top of my head are ginko trees, which are found in Asia). They are species that have been on Earth since the dinosaurs were around, which is sort of a funny thing to think about: if you happen to eat boiled pinhão (the seeds), you are eating something that used to be dinosaur food! haha!

It's interesting and eye-opening to see people like this "Tania Neres" manipulating the concept of "diversity" towards their convenience,
in other words, using it in a twisted manner (double standard) to collect applause from social networks when it suits them
(in other words, when the social networks deem "diversity" as something good and desirable)
but at the same time (again, when it suits them) changing her viewpoint on diversity and bashing the multiculturality of sao paulo
while praising the almost excluive black roots of salvador.
We can all see how it's convenient to her cos she works in tourism and selling this history of slavery and struggle of the blacks to overcome
all the oppresion in order to become the predominant ethnicity in salvador is appealing to all the naive turists.
Fueling this narrative means more money in her pocket, while at the same time being protected by the hipocrisy of the double standard.
Imagine a white person stating that he or she is proud of living in a city and saying "here we're all white".
He or she would be almost immediately sued for this.
Yep, that's the double standard hipocritical world we live in, and most
people will either deny it or try to justify it or even sweep it under the rug,
after all admitting that this is true is also admittance that they are hipocritical themselves,
and the ego doesnt like that, does it?

Love the way you describe SMDA I loved the city the times I´ve been there, also Guanajuato, love that people from other countries come and enjoy and respect our culture, also sometimes learn some good things from it.
Your channel is great for people that still "fear" México to not be "afraid" of us, all of us aren´t villains, the good guys, WE are more. If you haven´t been to Mazatlan, try it, vibe and people are different, not in a bad way, the "bad" thing is that it is in Sinaloa, state of pretty much most of the known narcos in the country but still, is a place that deserves to be visited and it is also cheap.
Question to you as african americans, Have you experienced racism in México because of the color of your skin? I´m asking this since there is an Afro-Mexican culture donwn in the south. I´m asking this cause I love history and I´d like to know foreigner´s POV on this
Love your channel.
Enjoy our country :)

The brazilian racial theme is a very hard one to understand, 56% of the population indentifies themselves as black or "pardos", pardos being a mix, let's say someone like Neymar, which is probably a mix of black and white and maybe even indigenous too is a "pardo"...
"Pure black" is something like 15%, while the other 40% are "pardos" or a mix of black and white and indigenous... But even the ones who identifies themselves as "white" would probably not be considered white in an european country, for example.
There is a famous brazilian historian called "Sergio Buarque de Holanda" who wrote a classical book called "roots of Brazil" and there he talks about the "myth of the friendly man" in Brazil, Since the brazilian society is so diverse you won't see as many racism as you see in other parts of the world, so at first it may give you an impression that the brazilian people is not racist at all, which is not true in a institutional level as you mentioned, as you said most politicians are white, most businessmen are white... It's just a different kind of racism, it is not as easy to identify as it is in the USA, for example.

Mexico easy? Maybe, if you have help fighting your way past the throngs of transport folks at the Cancun airport to get to the ADO kiosk, then, riding that freezer on wheels for over three hours to Merida...... It’s been four days, and I’m just now thawed out! LOL! All that said, it was worth it, warm, friendly folks, lots to see and do. Not quite so sure about the heat though, you gotta time your outings, unless you are a mad dog, or an Englishman!

I have travels my share of places and cuties in the US, Europe and SA, but no city can come close to Mexico city, ..food , culture, history, endless with things to see and do, very safe but most people never mentioned how romantic the city is, the perfect place for a couple to vacation...! I small note, coyotes don't howl, wolves do..!😁

Love, love, LOVE it. Good lessons. I would love to know what you two are finding, but I used to travel pre-RONA at least 3-4 times a year internationally. It was affordable. I find now that EVERYWHERE is getting expensive to get to. It is kind of discouraging, but it hasn't put me entirely off. I'm hooked on travel but man, finding those deals is getting hard. In 2017 we did a 7-day trip to Jamaica, that was airfare, hotel, all inclusive (food) and now? Man, it has nearly tripled. Getting nearly anywhere from the US is expensive. Well, that was my rant, I will always travel, I just have to pay the price, but I do hope prices fall again.

@TheYarbros I'm not sure I understand your last sentence there. If by "doesn't discriminate" you mean "well, it's possible to be infected while vaccinated" by omicron, then yes, that is technically correct. However, if you dig just a tiny bit deeper & compare rates of cases, hospitalizations, and death, then that's not a terribly helpful argument (at least for those who wish to avoid hospitalization & death, for themselves and their loved ones). Per the CDC, in the most recent December & January (so, during omicron), unvaccinated people were FOURTEEN TIMES more likely to die than fully-vaccinated people, and FORTY-ONE TIMES more likely to die than fully-vaccinated plus boosted people (I'd post a link but I don't think YT allows it; I found it on a CDC page with the heading "Rates of COVID-19 Cases and Deaths by Vaccination Status"). And I have absolutely no idea of what you mean by "if there ever was a vaccine created." Are you saying no vaccine has been created??
I'm not addressing your other issue about mandates & fairness & the political questions involved, and I'm glad you two are both fully vaxx'd (and I hope, boosted as well). But I think to say "omicron doesn't discriminate between vaxx'd & unvaxx'd" is not helpful (and might confuse people who don't distinguish "getting infected & surviving covid" and "getting infected & dying from covid").

Hello The Yarbles, I'm one of the Brazilians who are following your adventures through the Brazilian territory, in this video you were in the Serrana Region of Rio Grande do Sul, visiting Gramado, Canela, Caxias, Ijui, Bento Gonçalves, wine growing cities . There are other incredible cities like Blumenau, Joinville, Balneário Camboriu - the Brazilian Dubai. But, so far I haven't seen the couple in a ballad or in a bagode or samba circle, or dancing the vaneirão, which is a traditional dance from Rio Grande do Sul. I wanted to see the couple in a video doing extreme sports, like surfing, tree climbing, paragliding, climbing, among others, I want to see it show that Americans are crazy in the head for the sport...

Dang, ya'll came with both barrels blazin' lol! But...the truth is the truth. My excuse? Time. And I work for myself! I have traveled (and lived) back and forth across the U.S., but since the pandemic, it's been...work. Some of my biggest clients require me to be available at a moment's notice (golden handcuffs that I need to loosen up). I'm a bit older, but in great shape. so I have no excuse. The AA travelers are out there. Some that inspire me: The Unapologetic Nomads, a family of 3, currently in Zambia (they are the epitome of nomadic...all over Asia, Dubai, Africa). Picky Girl Travels The World (CDMX), Stephanie Perry (Intl House sitter), Driven Spice (Portugal), Shida's on the Loose (CDMX), Ranzo (Black Experience Japan...he's from Jamaica, but covers all of Asia), Mark Meets Africa (Tanzania). This kid went to TZ during the pandemic in '20, and has started a couple of businesses. He was only 21 at the time. Ashley In Africa (last I knew she was in TZ...she travels with her young kids), GoBlackToAfrica, Jai Essence in Rwanda, and many more. I have my eye on JoBurg.

Another great video! The expression you'll hear anyone from the coast say is, "We eat better here than the president of the country." That's because everything is FRESH!!!!!!! My Ecuadorian boyfriend wouldn't imagine eating fish that's been kept in the fridge/freezer for more than 5-7 days, tops. He'll bring home the fresh catch of the day, and it's ready that afternoon or the next day. Such a luxury! AND there's such variety!!! Tuna, mahi mahi, snapper, sole, shrimp, squid, clams, lobster......and then such a variety of ways to prepare it.....Oh, and not just the fish is fresh from the area, lotsa veggies grown nearby too, and let's not forget the ever-present plantain-good sweet or salty....Good living here and yes, as they've lived for millennia.... ¡Buen provecho!

A friend who has lived in EC way longer than we have suggested your video. I'm glad she did. We have some other folks putting up English language content about EC and are really not well grounded in their subject. You have the perfect standpoint, which is if you don't know something, you say so. Thank you for that. Really, thank you!
As a recently arrived resident (5 years), I have no right to comment. People with epistemological privilege - actual lived experience - are the ones we should listen to, as the Yarbros have said throughout. This means who the people are who are the subject of the representation.
What I have are questions. Like who benefits from this depiction and its perpetuation? How has the original celebration been co-opted and to what end? Could what was once a reverent and respectful celebration have been completely perverted?
I also have some observations. One is that there are color lines in EC, actual and de facto. These are further complicated by gender, sexual orientation, class, and as mentioned in another comment - an entrenched regionalism as pernicious as the ones in the US and Canada (ask how everyone feels about Quebecois and "Newfies" ). These serve to keep the population divided, or at least in other countries they do.
I don't know if this has anything at all to do with what we are seeing here, but we are all well aware that throughout history power elites have demonized weaker third parties so that the constituency to which they were appealing would identify with the elites instead of contesting them. Like the way immigrants are being vilified in the US right now, or the way a number of minorities were in Europe during WWII.

You guys should go to Curitiba, the capital of Paraná state, a beautiful city with a lot of parks, museums, shops, and beautiful eastern european architecture, duo to polish, ukrainian, russian, and others, influence and immigrants. They also have a tone of incredible restaurants. There isn't really a city in Brazil quite like Curitiba, so in my opinion its worth exploring. You guys should definitely visit.

niiiiceeeee!!! Recife is cool!!! I would reccomend u guys also go a bit out of the big cities :):):) I think the best of Brazil can be offered further away from big cities (Jeri, Chapada Diamantina, Canoa Quebrada, Pomerode, Ilha de Marajó, Paraty, Barreirinhas, Brotas, Ilhabela, Serra da Capivara, etc etc)

I had to come back and commend you the right way.. In the 80’s, 90’s there were very few platforms for African/Black history. Most of us had to stay underground following Dr. Ben, Dr. Runoko Rashidi, Dr. Ivan Van Sertima, Zak Kondo, Dr Charles Finch, Dr. Francis Cress Wellsing, Dr Asa Hilliard, Dr Niam Akbar, Chancellor Williams, Dr George JM James, Dr Khalid Mohammad… and many others….now you guys are able to continue their work and take us out of the darkness. All the ancestors are proud with you are doing. We see you!

One of my best friends in Mexico was clearly of African descendence which was unusual because that population mostly became integrated with the rest of Mexico a long time ago, so today is not that easy to tell who has African blood. My friend didn't live in a Mexican-African community or attended a Mexican-African church; he was just Mexican, like everybody else. Of course, our history is so much different than the U.S. where segregation and genocide played a much bigger role. Our second president's father, Juan Pedro Guerrero, was African- Mexican, while his mother, Guadalupe Saldaña, was a native Mexican. (We also already had what Americans call a Native American president) The fact that not many Mexicans don't even know about this tells you that the character of a person is what matters the most to us form early times in our national history. Our collective conscience didn't need a written statement for the affirmation that "All men were created equal", that was already a given. We still celebrate all of our roots and feel proud of them, that's why we have so a rich culture.

From 1999 until now, São Paulo has had an enormous decrease in its crime rate. The number of homicides around here is 10 per 100.000 inhabitants, much lower than in Washington, Filadélfia and other American cities. You guys are really Amazing, but speaking repeatedly about how dangerous it is to use a cell phone on the streets seemed too much. Sao Paulo has its problems, and it has actually worsen after the pandemic, cause there's too much poverty, but it( increasing violence) has happened everywhwre in this world. I was in NY last September, and for the first time in my life i didn't feel safe walking alone at night( from Times Square to my hotel in Central Pak West) like i used to do before. I was stopped by a man who came out of nowhere and started to yell and curse me at the top of his voice. He was clearly a mad man and he scared me to death, although he didn"t rob me. Anyway, all huge cities in the western civilization are dangerous in the world today.

Do not forget that we are dealing with the agents of Satan and Satan is the father of lies, so to fight back we need to: -
Ephesians 6:11Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.…
2 Corinthians 10:4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

Rac1al mixing was always very strong throughout Hispanic America. Even during the colonial era, segregation was not as strong as in the British or French colonies, and blacks were, in fact, the most likely to form couples with people who were not of their same r4ce, so that they would have a better chance of being freed in case that they were sl4ves (it must be clarified that there were also free blacks, who were an increasingly larger percentage of the black population as time went by) and that their offspring (who already were rac1ally admixtured) could be raised as free citizens.
Paradoxically, this also caused the black population to gradually decrease in many regions, especially in places where there were not so many sl4ves, where the population was low or where many non-blacks later joined the societies of the new countries already independent from Spain (in the case of amerindians, just as in the colonial era, due to the local indigenous peoples who lost their lands and became mostly rural or urban workers and which descendants, admixtured or not, gradually lost their indigenous culture; and in the case of whites, due to the immigration from Europe and Middle East, that in some places was very numerous compared to the local population that existed previously, and remained strong for many years).
That's why today there are countries where there is a very low percentage of local black population (or at least people that, beyond being clearly admixtured, have a phenotype with a visible level of black ancestry - because usually are not considered black precisely due to their admixture -). This happens in places like Mexico, Guatemala, Argentina, Chile, Paraguay or Bolivia.
In the former British or French colonies, black people remained much less admixtured (more "pure") due to the stronger segregation. Additionally, because of this, their overall population maintained more stable numbers or even grew.

Definitely a different culture and upbringing. Young Europeans intern at my place of work. For one, they aren’t pushed to immediately go to college after high school. Some of them graduate high school before 18. Many of them after high school are encouraged to travel and backpack, see the world and stay in hostels, learn a new language, work first before college, meet people from other places, go to college in another country, go to those immersion language schools, etc…many of them don’t start college til a little later after high school. They will work in their country and save money to travel for a year or more. I met one intern who said she was the youngest in her college class at 25 yo. She had already traveled to several countries and backpacked and attended a Spanish language school in Miami. So she already knew 3 languages.
I agree that Blk folks focus on generational wealth as far as cash money. We need to teach our kids to make money but strive for balance, peace,to enjoy life, to actually live, learn, laugh, teach, do something they love and that life is not about gaining material items.

The Mamá Negra is a result of incorporating the African slaves that worked in the mine back in the day into the festival. They blended both cultures. Mamá Negra is also a representative of the female mother, thus carrying a baby, lactating, nothing wrong with that. For example, Virgen de Guadalupe appeared pregnant as an indigenous Mexican woman. Thats why she wears a 🎀 ribbon& bow around her belly, shes expecting baby Jesus, the Aztecs wore it as an indication of pregnancy, thats why when we say "Esta en Cinta" means someone is expecting. "Cinta" is the bow & ribbon of pregnancy. Every Virgin Mary/Mother Mary represents the race pertaining to that country, but not all the time.
Don't see this thru USA eyes bc obviously its a different perspective with a different history and anything pertaining to black people is seen thru sensitive eyes. This is a celebration for saving lives during the volcanoes eruption. In fact, there are black Mother Marys such as La Moreneta , the name by which the Virgin of Monserrat , patron saint of Catalonia, is popularly known . There were 500 black virgins in Spain, now many of those who were oroginally black are not anymore. Also, in Venezuela they have a black Mother Mary Patron Nuestra Señora de Coromoto. I don't see anything wrong with being portrayed black and impersonating a black Mother Mary. It's incorporating the African slaves and that's good vs forgetting about them.

Overall I have a big respect for the American people, I know a few and we share a lot of thoughts about life. But I have NO respect towards your politicians, they does not take care of the people and the land. Everything is controlled by economical interests and religion also. "The land of the free" where the people in reality is not free. People die because they can not pay for treatment, people does not get education because of the cost, if one generation lack in health or education it often goes on further down the lines. But the economical interests like that because they make money on people in need, people that does not have the energy to get the knowledge to how to live their life to stay strong and healthy after working in 2-3 jobs just to get through the bills. It makes me so sad...angry and...schocked.
For religion; I call myself not christian, I call myself "a believer". I am interested in the world religions, amazed by the fact of all the similaritys but also understand the origin of it. I worship life, nature, are greatful toward my ancestors (without them there would be no me) and try to have hope for humanity. I try to embrace the good things from different religion, being as good as I can be, pay respect towards everything, myself included and the day I die I (maybe) find out the answer.
New here, will check you out further more. Heritage is interesting and exiting to learn about and I try to educate myself ablut that and a lot of other things. Have a good continuation of the new year!

Hi, great info, thanks. I entered MX a few days ago and was asked one question. What I was doing there. (tourism). Was stamped 180 days. However, I was detained a bit because of their sniffer dog. They wanted to know if I had food, I did. They wanted to know if I had cigars, I did. They requested a little look see, I complied. All was well and was sent on through. Being the last person in line gave me the opportunity to watch everyone else from the flight get questioned, some were escorted out of line to "the room", a couple looked very sad about their questioning and all the documents they needed to show. I realized that there was one particular thing that separated the questioned from the unquestioned. Just wondering if anyone might chance a guess as to what this would be. Full disclosure: I have a return flight, was never asked. I had proof of accommodation (for the first few weeks) was never asked. All in all, with all the stuff going around social media, there does seem to be a method to what immigration is trying to accomplish. Los Yabros, you hit on all the points that some people can put into play. Keep up the good work.

What fun! Glad you are enjoying Guatemala. It’s funny, but just last week I was qwatching a YouTube video about some of the history of Guatemala. I don’t remember the name, but you’ll see something about “fruit” or “bananas”. If you want to know more about the history of Guatemala, I think you’ll find it interesting. It’s pretty brutal, but it’s mostly about how a U.S. fruit company went in and took a lot of the land & forced the people to work for them. Then when things got to testy with the public in the U.S. they sort of re-branded and changed their name to Chiquita. That might be related to why you are seeing so many American food places there, as we (the U.S.) pretty much took over the country. Also, you mentioned hearing about Livingston. One or two videos cover a lot about that place as well. It’s very interesting. A man there who “saves” the history of Livingston said that the people there did NOT originate in the Caribbean islands, but he didn’t say how they originally got there. He made it sound like they were always there, but I wonder about that. I have a Guatemalan friend, so I’ll have to ask her if she knows. Anyway, glad you two are safe and having a great time. Looking forward to your next videos.

I loved your channel, this is the first video I've watched, and it was excellent, I live in Brazil, I've never been to São Paulo, but I have little knowledge about it, and in fact I think that Sampa has more inhabitants than New York, Sampa is currently the largest in the Americas. I wish you success, and Welcome to Brazil!
amei o canal de vocês, este é o primeiro vídeo que assisto, e ficou excelente, moro no Brasil nunca fui em São Paulo, mas tenho pouco conhecimento sobre, e na verdade acho que Sampa tem mais habitantes do que Nova Iorque, Sampa atualmente é a maior das Américas. desejo sucesso a vocês, e sejam Bem Vindos ao Brasil!

We've been following you guys for a while now, and love your take on the places, people, and things you show us in your vids. We love Mexico and always will. We are more about the inland, higher elevation, cooler temperatures, old colonial towns, but love just about anywhere in Mexico. Love what we've seen of SA as long as it stays cool Spring type temps. Love the DR, but it would be too hot for a long term stay or live place for us. With that said, @The Yarbrows, what are your thoughts about Guatemala.? I.e. - Guatemala City, Antigua, towns around Lake Atitlan, etc. One of our upcoming trips before the EOY 2023 will be to Guatemala.

I love your videos! Thanks for making them! I've been living in Ecuador for more than 11 years. I spent the first year in Cuenca and then 5 years in Loja. I've been in Quito for more than 5 years now. I FROZE in Cuenca and Loja!! And every time I made the trip north to Quito, it was warm and sunny while Loja and Cuenca were wet and cold. I live in an eastern valley of Quito called Tumbaco at about 7500 feet elevation, so it is warmer than most of urban Quito, but even when I go to places in Quito (Parque Carolina, the bus terminal, Hospital Metropolitano, govt offices, etc.) it's almost always warm and sunny during the day. We do get rainy periods, but it isn't like the rain in Cuenca. There's usually sun for at least part of the day. I also have the best internet I've ever had in my life here. Better than what I had in Colorado! Faster and more reliable. I also feel like Quiteños are more open to foreigners, as well, maybe because they are more educated and have traveled more in general. Expats don't cluster together here like they do in Cuenca, so maybe that helps, too. Taxi drivers in Cuenca used to complain all the time about the expats, maybe because I spoke Spanish, so it was easy for them to talk about it. Loja is the most beautiful city in Ecuador in my opinion -- it tends to be a cool, wet city, so it is always so green and lush. Quito can get a bit dry but there are still so many beautiful places and giant parks. They've done an amazing job of preserving green space in Quito, one of many reasons why I love this city so much!

America officially lost its way when the Supreme Court, (SC), granted Trump total immunity, it made him a dictator. That went against everything the founders, though they were not perfect men, legislated against. What made America different from all other countries and what gave it a fighting chance was the Constitution, when the SC gutted it, America ceased to be the shinning light on the hill. Trump aligning himself with Putin has accelerated America's downfall. Trump may invade Canada, he may take over Gaza, but that will lead to the inevitable. For those who think America will always be great, remember all the great empires, Britain, Atlantis, Lemuria, Rome, Egypt, and others, their citizens too said they would never fall. It may not be in a year, or two years or 100 years but it will fall, this Trump era is the point America turned its face from the light to the dark.

There's a couple different directions to go with in my opinion. First, black folks generally are attached to home. I was the only one that left the city I grew up in before I was 25. My brothers, sister, and nephews are STILL there. There is a tribalist mindset present, especially in the south.
On the flip side, demographically, the current population of the US ethnically is 13.4%, while 76% white. Based on the numbers game, the odds of seeing black folks travel is already gonna be slim, let alone when growing up and being taught to stay close to home.
And for the record, Y'all are my favorite traveling couple!

There has been massive migration from Caribean and Central American countries, passing through Mexico to go to the States... The issue here is, mexicans (who used to complain of racism and seggregation of our northern neighbor), are now seggregating, discriminating, complaining against those migrants. Specially Monterrey, who has an extreme conservative mind, people here don't usually welcome foreign people from any place of Latin America and even Mexico. There's an old tradition, that Regiomontanos (People from Monterrey), tend to maintain the european roots in order to have a better social status... In a nutshell, the city is full of clasism, racism, discrimination among foreign people... But in the other side, the city success has led to a big foreign migration, which has enriched ethnic diversity and new generations are getting more friendly. I hope you guys are not having any issues, welcome to Monterrey.

It sucks to be profiled and it is not fair. The full truth of the situation is that certain groups are stopped and detained because those groups actually commits more crime. Sometimes it’s single or groups of males, poor looking , younger types, and yes Blacks. When l was in my 30’s l went back and forth across the Canada border, every time my car was pulled out of line on both sides of the border, car search, frisked, and asked why and where was l going to the US or Canada, how much money did l have, and how did l make my money, etc. l fit a profile, of the criminals they usually catch, single, kinda young and White.

@TheYarbros tell me about it! Just had one roll up Friday, I'm still in the house on temporary occupancy as per the sales contract, tomorrow's my last day. I hear a knock on the door, so I go and look there's a guy with a pad and a ADT yard sign standing there. So, I'm like, "May I help you?" And, he says "I'm just here to process your credit, and get you set up." WTF? We had some words after I refused him. 🤬 Figuring it was a vendor jumping the gun and trying to set up for the new owner, I texted my agent about it. Turns out it's a scam, they look for homes that have recently sold, and drop by on unsuspecting folks acting like it's a common process and scam them.

Crossing borders can be chaotic especially if you`re crossing by road, even for the most cool-headed you can find yourself ready to just scream.
I admire you for having the courage to let a guy with a cart push your luggage, in some countries, they will look at you and realize you`re tired and maybe a bit confused so they will pick up speed and just get lost in the crowd with your luggage. Please never do this in Africa.
At least you speak the language, that helps.
Police harassment (in my opinion) exists in most developing countries,just depends on how you look at it( ask me when a cop held a gun at my face last year in Egypt, I was horrified)The need to bribe or just being made to wait for no reason gets to you no matter how patient you are.
I`m just surprised you did not bargain the price.
Apryl looked tired at the end of the video.
Anyway, I'm glad you shared the "back end" of traveling because some people will show "I`m in the airport, I reached y hotel, I'm at the beach, etc" and it makes non-travelers think it`s easy traveling.
I subscribed and looking forward to more videos.

The weather on the coast is moderated by an offshore current, the cold Humboldt current. how far or close to the coast it's variable over the year. in june/july when the Whales are migrating past heading south the current is close in. this gives the region a cool cloudy climate here, in the high season from december thru to march the current is further off shore and this allows a warmer close in counter current that brings those blue skies, and a bright all day sunshine, it also brings the rain inland thats why its the high season for the likes of Guayaquil, the locals head for the beaches to get away from the humidity. Even on hazy days anytime of the year the UV can give fierce burns after a short time. renting a carpa or parasol be careful of the suns shadow it moves quickly and your feet peeking out can get serious sunburn.
One thing about "choclatera" right out on the tip of that penninsula, you are the furthest west you can get on dry land in South America, Not so long ago there was a small plaque there about it on the triangulation station, the small concrete monument thing there.
The prices are the same for locals too, the prices reflect that the tourist high season is seasonal at mainly weekends, many weekends the place starts closing down on sunday afternoon, as the weekenders head back to Guayaquil. come Monday the place is virtually abandoned, as even the resturant operators have gone to their weekday jobs. Many times having decided to return to Guayaquil on the monday morning, Ive had to pay up on the sunday, and let myself out of a hostel monday morning. just a security guard/cleaner in atendance.

I'm Mexican and I should be glad the super peso is strong, but it seems you guys are not very familiar with geopolitics and economy. Yes, you edited the video very well, half of what you describe is true. The super peso is strong for all the wrong reasons, inflation sucks, and daily prices of basic market products are rising, then I know you don't want to say that, but drug lords are sending money via wire transfers, in other words, through money laundering. Bringing the Mexican economy into the hands of very few with the help of the Mexican bank Bienestar, which is not regulated by international law enforcement agencies because the President of Mexico does not want it to, and the same applies to the Federal Reserve in the United States, as we do, currently Going through a difficult time on interest rates, Mexico's job numbers have increased on the informal side, i.e. not paying taxes; all this makes the peso strong, but it will end soon. Even the Mexican president mentioned this about a week ago and perhaps by the end of his term peso will fail. Honestly, Americans love Mexico because it's cheaper than the US, which means you get fewer dollars when the peso is strong, sorry, math doesn't lie.

Thanks for the great video. We thought Manta was too hot, but that's just us. It does have a great visa lawyer, Marcos Chilusa. If you are looking to get residency, talk to him. Very good relations with the immigration office. My comment about real estate. Don't know if ppl will agree with me, but here goes. There was a bank run in EC around 2008. The original currency was devalued (sucres) and the US dollar was adopted. That's kind of the background of the current mistrust of banks. You'll notice that they give pretty good interest rates here. That's also a reflection of customer mistrust. So, people put their money into real estate. Everywhere I have visited here is over-built because of that. There is and always has been a glut of housing, no matter the economy, over the past 6 years we've been in EC. There is also an overabundance of cash, kind of like in NYC, so real estate is an investment - for some - that ahem 'washes' the money. I knew a lady from the US who had worked in real estate herself. First, they bought a condo on the coast in EC (too hot and noisy) and sold it. Then they moved to the Sierras and did the same thing. They overpaid for their condo in the mountains and took a bath on selling it when she had to return to the US. What happened to her, a supposed expert, leaves me with the impression that the real estate market is very different in EC and there is a lot to know before investing in it.

The conversation has given my pause. The frown lines on my forehead have many rows, contemplating the answer to the "Why." My "why" is not fully formulated at this writing...the "why/why not," is complex, layered but has yet to be fully actualized in my head. Dam, why Ya'll do this to me!?
This I do know, the spirit of adventure you two share is not present in who I am. I admire that you have that, which is why I follow you. However, that level of adventure is absent here. I have no desire to stay short periods of time in various places around the world.
Then there’s how I was raised. Traveling by car to see relatives in another city was the extent of travel I did as a child. If traveling outside the Country was never in one’s purview, why would I travel outside the Country when my world view was that it wasn’t even safe to travel within certain parts of my own Country? Surely the thought that it might actually be safer outside America couldn’t be possible? Or could it?
Then there’s the economics, which you touched on in your vlog. I am the only college graduate, the third home owner, that I’m aware of, in a couple generations of family. My mother, who was separated from my father, was locked into providing, and most times not doing a great job of it, for her two children. My youth saw very little by way of finances for ANYTHING extra. The bare necessities were hard pressed to come by. I’m absolutely sure travel outside of the Country was NEVER a topic in our home, survival was the battle cry of the day. As I became a man, seeing the World did not enter into my thoughts either. It was go to school, get a “good” job and buy a house.
So guys, as I stated in the beginning, the reason why we as African American’s don’t travel abroad is complex and multi-layered and has not been fully formulated in my head. BUT I’m thinking!!!! P.S. Last minute thought: The African Students who were stuck in Ukraine that weren't originally allowed to leave after Russia's invasion spoke to me. Is our Blackness a liability abroad?

Yes there is racism, but less than in other countries. What I see in Brazil today is a strong racism of social classes, and the issue of racism is a necessary policy to fight it, even in schools. The privatization of schools makes people stay away from social difficulties, and school privatization was imposed after the dictatorship (No, it wasn't good, but there were equal points in some sectors, like school). Afro culture is taught from the beginning in a mandatory way, from primary to high school. Brazil is made up of foreigners from all countries, making the acceptance of all greater, the true Brazilians are the indigenous people. Brazil has a "big" "missigenation"!. Also during the Brazilian dictatorship, the state was obliged to provide schools for everyone, making all social classes study together without distinction. A big difference from the US is that Brazil is not divided by zip code or by location or region in the cities, causing people to mix, and this is a spiritual mission in Brazil, that was set apart in the US, the missigenation. Thanks to the DNA test I discovered that my grandmother has ancestry in the Belgian Congo, of course it was because foreigners went there but it proves that we all have African origins and we must respect, love and learn from African culture and fight all forms of racism, bringing people together instead of dividing.

Yeah, we are watching prophecy in fulfillment. Thank you, the effort you put into this presentation is appreciated & really shows.
Ephesians 6:11-12
Put on the complete suit of armor from God so that you may be able to stand firm against the crafty acts of the Devil; 12 because we have a struggle, not against blood and flesh, but against the governments, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places.
Matthew 24:6-7
You are going to hear of wars and reports of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for these things must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another. 8 All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress.
Daniel 2:44
“In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever.

My 2 cents: please, don't get me wrong, Yarbros, I don't mean to be rude, just being straightforward. I think we are not supposed to speak English to welcome a visitor who comes to Brazil. A tourist who wants to enjoy the country should do their homework learning, at least, the basics, and I can see that you guys put some effort to do that, we can see by your adorable Portuguese pronunciation. Fortunately, I'm able to communicate in quite a few languages, otherwise, I would be in hot waters depending on Portuguese visiting other countries. Out there, people usually roll their eyes and have no empathy when it comes to helping you out.

In the city of São Paulo, when we talk about the Japanese community, we think of pastry, for the Portuguese community, we think of bakery, for the Arab community, we think of kibbeh, and for the Italian community, we think of pasta. And certainly in each neighborhood of the city we will find 70% or all of these gastronomic varieties and, believe me, they are "same" foods but prepared in a different way. I love São Paulo.

Hello, 🦩🦩🦩🐦🌷🌷🐦May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED."
God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?

if you liked Tim Maia, you should also listen to the songs of his nephew Ed Motta, who is considered a great name in Soul and Blues in Brazil. Of course, it doesn't compare with Uncle, but it's worth listening to. Manuel, Colombina, Fora da Lei, Espaço na Van, and bringing a rock in roll vibe with Doidão, Ficar Nu, Cidadão do Bem and the ballad História de Amor.

I'm a proud Brazilian living abroad for 2 years now for work reasons, and to be honest completely addicted in seeing videos about home in YouTube. I miss it so much, I miss my people, my language, my weather, my land, my nature, my friends and most of all my family. If Brasil was safer and had better jobs for us, me and my spouse would never have left. But since we did, to be honest, I can't wait to come home.

You are a brilliant filmmaker, presenter, storyteller, historian, and idk even know what else.., super well done. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
I initially heard about Salvador, ironically, from the singer Anitta (maybe you’ve heard of her, lol). I think it’s her dad who is from there, descended from slaves, and she has referred to herself as biracial. Her song with Cardi B & Myke Towers, “Me Gusta”, is filmed completely in a neighborhood in Salvador. It shows the women in traditional dresses, and playing drums, dancing, etc. The architecture and colors are amazing, and Anitta really is like a modern Sheila E. with the percussion, people don’t realize that about her!

@TheYarbros I do agree with absolutely everything you said in the video. Great job, btw! However, for many people of African descent in the U.S., finances can be a huge barrier. I guess my point is really regarding the indigent, not the middle or upper classes. I am a traveled person and a conscious consumer, single, with no kids and no debt. However, I became ill and can no longer work. My retirement check is significantly smaller than when I was working. It is enough for me to live comfortably and to save for an occasional oversees trip, but when life happens, like me needing a new HVAC system for 6K, along with car expenses, fence falling down, and my $200 weekly health treatments, which are not covered by insurance, I just don’t have enough. This summer my sister and I are going to the Dominican Republic, with HER “sponsoring” the majority of the trip.😋 Many of us middle-classers are serious consumers, which definitely would not allow for a travel budget. So, yes! We really need to rethink things! Sending love!🌻💛

👏🏽👊🏽Incredible, much needed info! And not surprising.
Have always said Black Americans ARE the melting pot. Waaay back in my school days, kids would often ask light-skinned, long haired kids like me "are you mixed?" I'd always answer, "Yep, and so are you." As far as I could tell, all Black folk were varying degree mixes of African, Indigenous American (Indian), and white. Seemed to me, White traits being the weakest, made them (white) shun their diluted offspring. Most of us know some of our Indian (I'm Creek) and white (Irish) lineage; but thanks to the smashing of any links to our African heritage, we end up making movies like Roots. Again, we ARE the melting pot of America!! ✊🏽🌈

Sadly, a good portion of our community believes that Christianity and the Bible is a lie concocted to keep us mentally enslaved by the Oppressor. Woefully inaccurate as that is, Satan knows who and what to use to draw people away from God. Jesus and the Bible itself warn of false teachings and false prophets.
1 John 4:1
Beloved ones, do not believe every inspired statement, but test the inspired statements to see whether they originate with God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 Peter 2:1-3
However, there also came to be false prophets among the people, as there will also be false teachers among you. These will quietly bring in destructive sects, and they will even disown the owner who bought them, bringing speedy destruction upon themselves. 2 Furthermore, many will follow their brazen conduct, and because of them the way of the truth will be spoken of abusively. 3 Also, they will greedily exploit you with counterfeit words. But their judgment, decided long ago, is not moving slowly, and their destruction is not sleeping.
We know where civilization started.
We (humanity) are in a spiritual war, where the Truth and lies, right and wrong, and choosing God or satanic ideology is on the line. We can’t get swept away by the world’s divisiveness, and it’s not easy I will admit. Divide and conquer is Satan’s tactic. Ethnic hatred, tribal hatred, religious sects and divisions are not of God, those are the thoughts of imperfect mankind.
Acts 10:34-36
At this Peter began to speak, and he said: “Now I truly understand that God is not partial, 35 but in every nation the man who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. 36 He sent out the word to the sons of Israel to declare to them the good news of peace through Jesus Christ—this one is Lord of all.
If we can align our thoughts and spirit with that line of thinking, we’ll have God’s blessing.
Good Vlog as usual. 😉😊

Interestingly, as a historical fact, any black man with the last name Jackson is directly related to Andrew Jackson like for instance, Michael Jackson. It is known that Andrew just couldn't leave the black ladies alone and had many offspring through them. He found , as he got older, that he loved the black people. His estate was inherited by black people and his slaves were given freedom. When he was younger, he was a hot tempered General that earned the name " Old Hickory". President Jefferson fell in love with a black woman and he took her to Paris and bought a home in which they both lived in when overseas. Their was quite a few interacial relationships among Presidents and big name politicians. Out west in New Mexico if you are dark skinned hispanic, it is because you have mixed blood. There was a black man among the Conquistadors, If I recall rightly, whose name was Stefan and he was sexually active among the western tribes, who offered him women because they thought he was a god. The early United States is rich with stories of the black people that I find both astonishing and fascinating. I am happy to find and subscribe to your channel because I am certain you have some interesting stories to tell. I could tell you so much more but maybe in time. God bless both of you and be with you in your searches and daily lives ! A friend always !

I'm Mexican and black, I have suffer classism not racism, if people think I have money or not they treat me different, most is based on your clothing (brands and looks) and vocabulary (rich tend to be more educated and have better vocabulary). Commonly skin color is not important, but money. And it's funny but there's plenty of people pretend to be rich, but the rich know the truth, it's funny.
On the bright side Mexico has had better laws about racism, the third president of Mexico was black, that's back in the early 1800s, right after independence.
The terrible part is that, although classism can be passed (by getting money), in Mexico to have money you need money, so a poor person will have it far more complicated to get money a good education, job and pay, while rich people have it easier since the difference in quality in public education and private is huge, and they move in different circles, rich people have rich friends, that do business and help each other, poor people have poor friends.
Basically if you are born poor is almos a life sentence to be poor in Mexico.

Glad to know you enjoyed your visit to my hometown, even in these complicated times. You are safe and lucky you being in the peruvian coast by the end of Spring as you will always have these beautiful sights of the ocean and cities. Besides, I think you are lodged in Miraflores, Barranco or Chorrillos, these are upper-middle class districts, so you'll always be safe. Sorry you had to change your travel plans, we are so annoyed and worried about how things were evolving, more problems to us and to our country, still struggling post-covid and, as a Thirld World country, things of course are not at their best. Thank you so much guys, looking forward to welcoming you again for Machupicchu, Cuzco, Arequipa, etc. Greetings from Lima !!

I was born in Bahia and lived 25 years in Salvador. Now I live in another state, Sergipe, which is close, only three hours by car. But everytime I'm back at Salvador my heart fills with joy, my body is energized and my mood cheers up. That is a magic city, as says the music "É d'Oxum", by Geronimo. You shoud see it in Carnival, the entire city goes to celebrate in the streets, there's Ilê Ayê, Olodum, Filhos de Gandi, and many other beautiful things to see and feel. It's a truly amazing experience.

Nope, guys.
Mexico-Tenochtitlan was the capital city of the Mexicas (pronounced meshicas, also known as Aztecs), the Mexico we know today didn't exist back then. Then the Spanish conquered this city in what is known as the Conquest of Mexico. And choosed this city to be the capital of New Spain, they ditched the Tenochtitlan part and kept the Mexico for the capital they built on top of the ruins.
After three centuries, in 1821, New Spain declared its independence from Spain and became Mexico, the first name was Mexican Empire, after this the names of Mexican Republic and United Mexican States were used interchangeably, the latter was proposed as a name inspired in the United States of America in order to implement a Federal type of goverment with states. But it was never made official until the signing of the Mexican Constitution of 1917, which is the current Constitution and it was heavily influenced by Masons, a group that also played a pivotal role in the creation of the United States of America.
Long story short: the official name of United Mexican States was made official only one century ago by a group of politicians, but Mexico became an independent country two centuries ago but Mexico as a nation with a common culture, language and religion has five centuries of existence. The independence of New Spain is akin to the independence of the Thirteen Colonies, you can't say the US is the Thirteen Colonies but you can't deny it was a continuum.

Man, first thanks a lot for the video… how can you guys do that! 🥹 seeing acarajé and muqueca, now I want some 😂😂😂
As for the capoeira and the cultural brilliance I have to say that we, black ppl are the salt of the earth! Everywhere we go, we see that the richness of the food, the culture, the inventions lies on us 😎 I mean…
And “they” prohibit, silence, banish, then after appropriate 🤦🏿🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♂️ always that same cycle.. everywhere…
As for the racism in Brazil, I can say without any doubts that unfortunately it is the worst. Bc the best way to condition a ppl to don’t recognize their greatness, their accomplishments and wisdom is definitely to silence them whether through physical violence or through psychological warfare and they’ve succeed to do both there 😢
At the very least it taught me a lot about it and I’ve became a keen detector of it 😅
So yeah, I had to leave but not in a sad way, but in a gracious ancestral calling. I came back to where we should have never left.
Now happily rooted in Senegal, West Africa. Even though racism is everywhere, there’s no safer place for us than The Motherland. I can’t find the words to express how amazing it is to be back home. The healing, the freedom to live and practice our culture, our language, the deeper understanding of our ppl and tradition, the community, I mean everything.
Even though I love Salvador, (born and raised), I’ve always loved it because of Africa… so it would definitely make more sense to come back to the roots 😂❤
*Hit me up whenever you guys come to West Africa, mainly Senegal y’all will be very welcome there’s a huge family here with open arms to receive you whether for a visit or to relocate 😂😂😂
Yeah, I believe we can live everywhere we want, but I strongly believe that every African that was forced to be in the Americas through the slave trade SHOULD come back at least for a while, it doesn’t have to be permanent, but it’s definitely a very important part on the healing process we need to go through. And our ancestors will thank us for that!
We need to continue our journey with our powerful brilliance, but sometimes we can get stuck due to the illness the west instilled in our souls. What we went through is no joke and we deserve healing, but also never forget. History can definitely repeat itself. We need to learn and heal in order to move on.
Peace and blessings fam. And as we say in Mandinka: Abaraka, Alma Alleye iyo (thank you, god bless!)

Bro just one thing, with all due respect, why do you have to call yourselves (Americans) “expats” why not immigrants? Like me, I left my hometown tlaquepaque and live here in Los Angeles , that makes me an immigrant, there’s no shame on that, it’s the nature of humanity to migrate, but I get the sense that calling yourselves expats is pretentious, and somehow that should be better than the word immigrant, because if so then why Americans do not call me expat and instead refer to me as immigrant? And also I have all the answers to many of your topics on your videos, so reach out anytime, saludos!

For what it's worth, this also happens to Mexicans in Mexico and other Latin American countries--regardless of what other Mexicans tell you, since I have experienced it myself. In your situation, unfortunately, you fit an initial possible profile that authorities are looking for. Immigration enforcement has changed in Mexico and the police and armed forces are actually taking the interdicting of possible smugglers more seriously, so this is one of the unfortunate side effects. If the encounters are professional and in no way demeaning, all's well. However, if at any point you are harassed or unduly detained, then make sure to let the officer know you need their supervisor to be present as well. As annoying as this is, I'm sure you know it's in no way even close to the treatment you could be subjected to in the US--I know, because many times I have felt what you felt while being asked to get out of a car for no reason other than "I fit a profile". Stay safe, keep enjoying Mexico, and don't let overzealous officers ruin the experience. Peace.

Love Mexico's rural areas, especially Yucatan and Veracruz, but the thing is: cases in fact: God help you if you are scraped by a random rusty piece of metal (1 in Merida), step on a rusty nail (1 in Quintana Roo countryside), trip into a deep hole or uneven sidewalk & fall and hit your head on the cement (3 in Oaxaca City) --- and need a doctor/hospital/tetanus shot Immediately. I guess you youngies take more chances. *Mexico is worth it IF you can afford to take care of the expense of Any Situation/Accident/Arrest/Illness that may arise.*
Especially out in the boonies, some folks may not be able to afford to help you in any way, or be afraid to, some dire poverty and humble desperation in the countryside. Or, it could take a long ride to a hospital. Cities, naturally, have the best medical options & good ones. I Have Lots of Love for Mexico❤️

11:30 During the years of military dictatorship, the regime forced on midia and schools something they called "Racial Democracy", which was an idea that in Brazil there is no racism and the races coexist in peace, as an attempt to suppress the class struggle, riots, the demanding of civil rights, equality, etc... So today, especially elderly people, even when experiencing racism and living in social apartheid, they don't understand racism. So much so that it even affects our ability to understand ourselves, for example, I'm miscigenated but for decades I declared myself white on government forms because I had the solid idea that "black" is only someone with a very dark skin. Blacks, mestizos, asians and natives make up 70% of the Brazilian population, while whites representing 30% of Brazil but alone they concentrate 50% of the wealth, own 90% of the companies, are the ones who least experience unemployment. .. There is a clear network that privileges whites to the detriment of other races, but most still don't understand that.

Fair enough that this was 4 months ago, but something that caught me by surprise is right at the start where you showed that bookstore. "When was the last time you walked into a bookstore and saw a whole bunch of black faces" is such a passing comment, but hits so hard, seriously.
Being from Brazil myself, and having studied in good places, I got used to being shown the cultural and academical value in afro-descendent sources and authors(like say, Fanon in mental/public health academic discussions), and not only white-european based sources. So a phrase like that, which reminds me that what I got used to is absolutely not the norm is such a powerful thing to think about.
Honestly, mad props for the work you do in giving light to these aspects of culture in your travels. It's no small thing at all, and really deserves a lot of respect.

An even dispersion of wealth, sounds beautiful, the problem with Castillo is that it was all talk and no action. From the beginning he was caught in suspicious actions and as time passed by, it became apparent that CORRUPTION had inundated not only his presidency, but all institutions, his poor judgment in selecting qualified candidates for top government jobs created all this mess. We don't mess around in Peru, you don't do your job, you go, you get involved in corruption, you go to jail, as simple as that. Six presidents in four years, it is not something we are proud of, but they do end up in jail. Fujimori, in jail, Garcia, committed suicide right before his arrest, Humala has been in jail, out on a technicality, trial pending, Kuczynski on house arrest, Toledo, about to be extradited and next stop jail, and Castillo about to be locked up for about 40 years. The sad part is that CORRUPTION brings POVERTY and POVERTY brings VIOLENCE and DISEASES, Peru is not a poor country, it is a corrupt country that has as consequence POVERTY.

Thank you Yarbros,
Here is another book reference to the atrocities of King Leopold, I dare anyone to read it!, "King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Colonial Africa", by Adam Hochschild.
Remember, as we Africans now travel the world, absolutely NONE of the terror and torture Europeans practiced on us and others throughout the world, including China, the Middle East, India, Mexico, etc. is portrayed in their museums that are filled with paintings, biblical literature, music, plays, poetry, movies, etc. That's why Africa has never been allowed to host the Olympics, for fear by Europeans that all of this shameful, disgraceful history will be revealed!

You know what's good for you, guys. Just go for it, I wish you the best!! There's just rwo thing I don't agree with you, though. I attended College in Quito. I've noticed that in Cuenca, a lot of people speak at least very basic english, and if they don't, they try to find a way to understand you and help you anyway. Whereas in Quito, most people do not speak English at all, and many will not spend more time with you either, if they don't understand you. Only educated folks might speak English. Quito has 3 million people, Guayaquil 275.000. Quito out-competed Guayaquil in population and progress since a few years ago.

Hi mate, im a salvadorean living in the UK looking for a better life far away from violence. My country there were some more beautiful places were should have go like Ataco, Apaneca, Ilobasco, Suchitoto and some others you also went to some dangerous places in the video, you are really lucky ajajaja The gangs are a problem and the current goberment commanded by Nayib Bukele is only propaganda he is a kind of a dictator and people in my country dont realize about that and he has made a lot of pacts with the gangs in giving them money and power and the goberment started persecuting to the journalist that realised that information even with death threaths i use to be friend with one of those journalist it was a girl. There are really beautiful places were you can go outside the capital, the capital is not so nice (i personally dont like it) and the people is eveng more kind in those places! I hope one day the situation in the hole world gets better and human kind can find some peace because is the hole world the one thats is full of violence even Here in Europe i have to say that i have been also threaten here in England actually it was today in the morning, is the hole world the one that is full of hate. It was nice watching the streets were i grew in this video lads a lot of memories came to my mind, i really miss my country and the food, and the people, and the weather is just perfect! I hope you have a nice time and God bless yoou!

Move over, other beers – Modelo Especial is taking the crown as the USA's number one beer, and it didn't happen by accident. You see, Modelo is like the superhero of beers – it doesn't wear a cape, but it sure knows how to rescue your taste buds. It's the beer that says, "I might not be a wizard, but I can turn any day into a fiesta!" Maybe it's the way the bubbles dance in your mouth or the subtle notes of refreshment that make it so irresistible. Perhaps people just realized that Modelo is the ultimate wingman at a party – it never lets you down and always leaves you feeling like the MVP. So, why is Modelo Special number one? Because when life hands you lemons, Modelo hands you a beer, and suddenly everything is a little more "especial." Cheers to the beer that turned "special" into a lifestyle! Nice video, The Yarbros!
