I Visited the Poorest Country in North America | Four Facts About Haiti 🇭🇹
Haiti 🇭🇹 A country that has been on the news for almost a decade only because of negative things. The earthquake in 2010 from which the country never fully recovered. Gangs controlling the capital city of Port u Prince. More than 1000 kidnaps since January of 2021 to date, and more recently the assassination of their president Jovenel Moïse.
Traveling across the Dominican Republic all I heard was "Don't cross the border, those people are animals", so I wanted to see this with my own eyes. And guess what, the place is spectacular.
Haitian people have a very different way of behaving, their human interactions are just different than what I am used to and to be honest it took me some days to get used to it. but after that, I discover a world of the most loving and awesome humans.
Haiti feels like being in Africa, and there is a reason for that, they are essentially Africans, and the fact that the country has been in such a difficult political environment for so long, means people leave the country but almost no people come to live there, which translates into an untouched culture.
I discovered a hidden world, from the music, the culture, the language, their spiritual beliefs, Voodo, voodoo priests, and voodoo traditions.
I wish I could just recommend everyone to visit Haiti, but the truth is that it is still a dangerous place (for now), even though there are some areas that feel safer, such as Labadee, the Citadele Laferriere, and Cap Haitien, all extremely beautiful and interesting places to visit.
I wish the best to Haiti and to its amazing people, and I hope I can return soon
