  • I am leaving this country! Salvador, Brazil maybe I can try again another day, but its time to leave! After being evicted with a racist Aribnb Host, then almost robbed - im taking the hint that its my time to leave and either go back to the USA or follow my first plan and go to South Africa.

    I think...I first found you after you had moved from Mexico. So I've seen you have a few rough spots, like East Africa. Or your IG hacked. So in this video when I saw that shoulder bag for the first time and you put your laptop in, I thought, oh boy. You are one of my favorite travel creators, I don't really have much in common, but you're a great creator; the end. And no matter how long the video, it always feels like it was over too soon.
    Years ago I traveled. And now I'm about to the leave the US--pretty much forever. I watch a LOT of content about travel, so I've put together a list for myself. I hope you don't mind, I just want to share some of my most crucial keys for myself.
    -Street record with a DJI Pocket. It's small enough and has superior quality to reduce theft danger and making people uncomfortable.
    -No matter WHAT, have a phone. Know the numbers to the local police, the US embassy (and location), and where you're staying
    -Have a plan for TOTAL LOSS. If every single thing is stolen, what's my plan?
    -Duo Lingo as much language before and during trip
    I'll stop here and apologize a little, I don't want to convey that I don't respect your knowledge and experience or it's insufficient--just trying to add to you being able to stay alive and enjoy your travel.

The Yoruba heritage that they still have despite slavery is awe inspiring. They think tourists have money though and they kept on saying 'Amerikano' to me. I would ignore them because I knew where the story was going.

    We traveled to Brazil in 2019 and my phone and all our credit cards were stolen within the first 24 hours
    That, the language barrier and the food were enough for me. People there aren’t even interested in speaking conversational English, which is WILD for an international travel destination
    Sorry that you had a bad experience

      Please... most Americans speak only English in tourist destinations across the US, unless they are first generation etc. Your statement is not based on fairness

    They say the cell phone is the number 1 safety item that you can have.
