In this video I'll be sharing my experience being a black man in Costa Rica, the good, the bad, the ups, the downs, and everything in between. Life in Costa Rica was amazing! I never experienced any racism of any kind, I excluded gringo pricing, that's a whole other story lol. There are black expat communities throughout Costa Rica, mainly in Limon and the Central Valley area but other than that, there are very few of us actually living full time in paradise. During my time there I saw a few black people vacationing but even that was few and far in between, however, that is not an indictment on the country of Costa Rica. Costa is an amazingly beautiful and welcoming central american country and for the most part the locals love us! If you ever experience any racism, it'll probably be from another gringo . . . I hate to say it but it's true. I think everyone of all races should travel to Costa Rica at least once. It's a different vibe, a different feel, and a different way of thinking once you step off of that airplane, you can feel it in the air! I've recently learned of the blaxit movement here in the states and I think it's a beautiful thing. For some reason black people (my family included) think that a vacation is sitting at home on the couch binge watching tv for two weeks and then heading back to work until the next vacay, so it thrills me to see like minded people that look like me finally see what I've seen. . . and that's that there is so much more to life than watching tv, eating, and waiting to die. Fear is not real, it's an illusion derived from our own instincts for survival. I want to be free and I want everyone else to be free as well, life is waaay to short to be afraid of living, so get up, get out, and start living. If traveling isn't your thing, whatever you love to do. . . do it!, however, if traveling and exploring is your thing like it is mine, I suggest all black people put Costa Rica on the list of must-go's. The world was meant to be seen and adored by everyone, including us, so take advantage before it's too late. Travel more, Vacation more, Love more, and Hate less. . . and if ya can eat fruit and vegetables lol.
My rules for longevity and happiness.
