Coquito is no named after the little frog (Coquí). Coquito is named after the main ingredient which is coconut. It literally means little coconut.
Where are my Puerto Rico gang?!!!!
When he mentioned almost everyone had a garden I started laughing because it's true
This is must be one of the nicest dudes on earth. Very respectful and sincere about our culture and lifestyle. Pretty much summed eveything up. We need more people like him in this world 👍🏼🇵🇷
Mentioning arroz con gandules “I don’t feel like it’s anything special”
Me: screams and cries in puertorrican
Thank you for being so respectful of our culture. Loved the way you spoke about your experience. Your Spanish is so good.
Actually ‘coquito’ means ‘little coconut’ because it is the main ingredient of the drink 🥥
My son is having a baby with his Puerto Rican girlfriend! She is sooooo beautiful! My grandbaby will be so cute.
Puerto Rican Spanish is very influenced by the spanish of the Canary Islands.
My abuela when she serves me food :Is this enough food?
Me:Yes that's good like that thank you abuela.
Abuela: ADDS MORE FOOD
ME:😐
This guy's cool. Respectful and seemed to get most of it. I wish people that come to PR were as thougtful and aware as you are
Keep coming back. My family will cook for you all your favorite things. You're part of la familia now
Really really enjoyed watching our culture from an outsiders eyes.
I went to Puerto Rico numerous times. I enjoy their culture.
Thank you
the way some puertorricans pronounce the r diferent is because the colonialists came from the frontier between spain and portugal. if you hear someone speaking Portuguese , you going to see why
I'm Puerto Rican and I hate Morcilla 🤷 and very good Spanish👍
You described Puerto Rico very well. Thank you 😊
Apparently he learned a lot from Puerto Rico and his Spanish sounds pretty good hahahahaha , 🇵🇷🤘🏼
Thank you for being honest about the good things and bad things about our island.
It looks like this guy was a missionary, thanks for being in PR.
Thank you for your respect for my beautiful island and my people, my culture.
I feel so bad for him for that “mugging joke” experience. Being puerto rican myself and being subject to stupid humour like that from family members, i know how he feels. We are a very interesting humor people. Lol.
He really has the Coqui song imitated perfectly!
I have to congratulate you on being so loyal and real to how we are actually! Thank you!
Pretty accurate brother! Thanks for the respect and you'll be welcome here anytime!!!
One thing! The drink Coquito is not named after the Coqui(Little Frog that sings) it is in fact named after its main ingredient which is Coconut or Coco in spanish!
But Pretty Accurate video!
In general but in the center of the island that "dialect" you say is actually Andalusian which is a Spanish variation from the Castillian! The official Spain Language!
One of the best thing in our puertorrican culture is related at the time to eat....when you are sitting in a table to eat you tell everybody "buen provecho " is like Bonna Appetite in frech. I don't know how said in English I thinking the most close could be enjoy your food I guess
The "Ahí bendito" is the way we feel sorry for someone , is like we are saying "oh im so sorry"="Ahí bendito".
🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Brutal is like "awsome" and can relate as "brutal" like something huge even though "brutal" is not like a good word.
Lmaoooo Puerto Ricans Talk a lot 😂
Thank you, Amigo ♥️ for sharing your experience of PUERTO RICO♥️ and your kind words regarding our culture. 🤗🙂
I LOVED PASTELON TOO!!
He really knows what he's talking 🇵🇷 💙
Coquito is made of coconut (coco) and not named by the little coqui frog, the beverage made of coconut and pineapple is called piña colada.
We do have the Puerto Rican Boa Snake which is endemic, the "Crock" you mentioned are really Caribbean Endemic "Caymans" which were introduced here during the 50's and spread in swamp areas ☝🏾We have a spider here "Guabá" which grows much larger than a tarántula ☝🏾We also have our own eagle "Guaraguao" There is wildlife here, go to San Lorenzo and you might see deers (introduced)! Driving, good heavens, you should see how they drive in Gainesville Florida lmaoooo 😂🤣☝🏾
Is funny how people that come to the island always notices the sound of the coquí and we are so used to it that we barely give attention to it.
Pretty respecfull and accurate for a foreigner, and good pronunciation.
Lol man, I understand you cuz not everybody like "morcilla".
Love this guy puerto rico was lucky to have you
You've been very graceful in your comments. Thank you for your help.
Thank you very much for your respectfull way of talking when you describe our culture.Allways Wellcome to my land!
Am happy being a true American puertorican .proud to be from both world .god bless our coltures
Your Coqui impression is spot on 👍🏻 and you Spanish is perfect 🤙🏻
I am a proud 100% Puerto Rican woman :)love this video
About the horses, few people do it as their main way of transportation, most have them because they love horses.
Thank you for the respect. And yes, we love our food 🤣
I love Puerto Rico am moving there
Honestly the most accurate description I have heard from a foreigner ever.
Can’t wait to move there. Visited many times and have fallen in love with Puerto Rico. Meeting my real estate agent there this winter to start property shopping. So excited to call PR home ❤️
The r sound was copied from a colony of French people who lived on the island. They pronounce the r with the back of the tongue instead of the front and a Puerto Rican decided to copy them and the rest in the countryside followed them. Just listen to a french person talking in his/her language and you will know where the r comes from.
He had me laughing when he talked about how we dont pronounce our R's and how we shorten our words.. He's not lying 🤣🤣🤣... We Puerto Ricans have Big Big hearts...
Thanks for letting the people know the good things about us, people tend just to say just the bad things about the bad apples that we have.
What a Beautiful soul!
Love my island and thank you💖
Wow u r one of us! One of us, one of us... 😂
I love you, you really have study our culture. God bless you.
As a Puerto Rican citizen, I hate cabalgatas. They only bring traffic and get in the way, it’s worst at night when you can’t see them
😆 🤣 😂 he nailed down the "mira nene..." that was so ghetto...😆 🤣 😂
Yup someone stole coqui and they ended up on a ship which ended up in hawaii
Your imitation of the Coqui was on point 👌🏼
Thank you for the nice comments ❤
Surprisingly accurate, very observant. Cheers. Only thing that surprised me is you did not notice the "tren urbano." To be fair, your grasp of transportation on the island is spot on. Cars are the norm indeed. But that train is surprisingly pretty popular. A lot of students and young professionals use it.
aww he knows the basics....
Pretty accurate. Except for the train detail. It exist but it's a really short route on the metro area
There are no crocodiles, there are alligators.
So happy you're talking good bout our culture
This is so accurate for me and my family though wow.
Puerto Ricoooo🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
♥️ I used to have a papaya, banana, guanábana, lime tree. Also, all the plants needed to do Sofrito! 😍
That's us in a nutshell. Thanks for your honest review. 🧐
So true most people be crazy driving here 😂😂 Even I hate it and I was born here.
Your puerto rican Spanish accent is on the spot. Lol😄
You hit it on the nail dude pretty cool my respects
The only thing you didn’t get right is Coquito Coquito is coconut flavor is dough because the coconut in it everything else and that ride 100%
Hey hablan Español saludos desde Puerto Rico La isla del encanto🥥🥥🍌🍌🍈🍈🥭🥭🥝🥝🦀🦞🦐🦑🦪🍾🍷🍹🍸🍺🍻🥂☕🐓🦜🦎🦗🐞🕷🕸🦟🐝🐜🐛🐌🐚🐸🦅🌎🏝🏞⛰🏕🛶⛵🧨🎆🎇✨🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
A PERFECT "COQUI" SOUND IMITATION. HOW CAN YOU DO THAT?
Thank you. Accurate information. What part of PR do you live?
Correction. Not every house is made out of concrete. It may seem that way in some areas though. 😊
I’m so surprised he knows us so well! Hahaha! Even the breathy r! Haha
Yes, bacalao is salted codfish.
Love Puerto Rico ❤❤❤❤
The snake you saw is the “Puerto Rican boa” which is a native species. Their numbers are down because of indescriminate use of insecticides and exfoliant which poison the snake. They are useful as rodent catchers and they used to keep the iguana population down.
As a born and raised 24 yo puerto rican i agree 100% with him
Much respect, pretty accurate 👍
Pastelon is done with yellow plantain that are fried. Pasteles are mind os like tamales and they are done using green bananas , potatoes, pumpkin,green plantain sofrito and people used different combinations.of this ingredients, etc.
Sorry for the typos
❤❤😁😁🇵🇷🇵🇷👍👍 the island is beautiful
I love how much puerto rico loves its flag xd
---------------------------------------------------------
Me encanta cuanto puerto rico ama su bandera xd
😲 I'm amaze how you had everything to the T. Except, I do not recall the horses😂😂😂.. Thank u.. Excelente..
He did the coqui perfect! 👍🏻
It's not crocodile, Puerto Rico doesn't have crocodiles. We have Caimanes which is a variation of the species, smaller bodies, thinner snout and smaller teeth
I'm from Puerto Rico and i really HATE flat roofs, ugh.
We have the Puerto Rican Boa constrictor.
9:21 Yes! A LOT of people have dogs or well more like abandon dogs that the community has more or less kinda of collectively taken care of. But the thing is, it's better if you learn to walk with a walking stick. Something wooden and strong, lots of people will tell you, they walk with large sticks for the sake of the dogs. Now I'm not saying to go beat every dog you see in sight but if one gets too aggressive and/or close use the stick to ward them off.
U have some Puerto Rico in you, lol
Im from PR and i dnt like morcilla ,i wonder if he tried mofongo, almost all tourists try it
Wepa! It was fun hearing it from your perspective. 😛 thank you
I'm seeing y this and i feel proud. You have to come to the west side and the south west next visit to the island.
The real Coquí is a lot smaller than he pointed out, more like the size of a thumbnail.
The dogs that he mentioned are called "Perros Satos" (Muts) or Perros Sadnoso( Mainged dogs).. they will chase and bark but 99 percent of them will not bite they just want you to go away. 🤣🤣🤣
Or they welcome you with a cup of coffee not even in the house.yes thank you for showing respect
Correction hahaha coquito means small coconut, coquito is the name of the beverage
Hi
Don't feel bad, I'm 100% Boricua and I don't like Morcillas either. By bicycle was also stolen lol. Everything else I love it!
I do not know who you are. Great job. Thank you. 🇵🇷
Yes he did. October 2020
This was a great video. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico until the age of 16 and then moved to US in 1990 and he is right about the stuff he said. He speaks good Spanish too! Is he Mormon and how long did he live in Puerto Rico!? Question for the person who uploaded this video
