    Nice video but point of correction: There is no specific called "Abroad" but rather it's any place which is completely outside the borders of your country and not necessarily US, Canada, Europe or Australia. So as a Nigerian even when you cross your land borders and enter Benin Republic or Cameroon it still means you have travelled abroad. Those Europeans and Americans when they also travel to Africa they're also said to have travelled abroad. I hope you've got me right.

    • @BelemaRonabere

One thing about us we Vincy dont hide our feelings, i just wish sometimes we learn to consider people feelings too and especially when it not justified.. but it's wrong to stereotype Africans as a whole and only a few ignorant ones do it.. and the volcano experience is rare occurrence, 40 yrs the last one before
    2021 one. Hope you eventually get over it.. Anyways I do hope you dreams and desires come through in Bim.( Barbados) once again I do apologize on behalf of those who made you stay here less than pleasant.. Best of wishes to you!

      I will never forget the Punkies barbecue every Friday and the many many free rides I got.
      I never thought I’d experience the volcano as well. It was so sudden and the combination with the lockdown and the entire mental stress of the year really left me craving for a new environment.
      It’s also hilarious that Barbados got so much ash 😂😂 They’re like the middle child that gets licks when the other children getting licks.
      One thing I regret for sure is not taking more videos and pictures during my time there.

Very irritating to see how many of the comments are either complaining about that or are telling the owner of the video how to feel about their own life decisions.

I know that everything online says 6 months (so you're technically not wrong) - BUT it's really 3 months. I've been in direct contact with the immigration and they are fully aware that the information online is false but.... for whatever reason.... it's not been updated!
