    I am originally from Trinidad and Tobago and thus have a Caribbean passport. A few years ago I was taking my mom to Croatia (no visa requirement for us in the EU) and I remember immigration holding us back as the officer could not believe that we were neither British or American and yet we needed no visa. She called her supervisor as she was still in disbelief and the supervisor said please just stamp their passport and let them through. Then I realised how fortunate we are. Am happy for you and we open our arms to you and accept you as a Afro Caribbean brother.

      Trinidad and Tobago are in America, my sweet sister, The United States is only one country in America, have you ever heard of the OAS, go and google it and read up on it history on it's own website, and there is a regional financial institution called the IDB, which stands for the Inter American Bank.
      These are the trivial things that we've learnt as children, however in brief mention, as our educator are unaware of what it is they are really teaching us, then there are those government officials, who are trying to indoctrinate us to a delusional existence, because of their horrible experiences growing up and living during the colonial ruling era.
      So now you know, you are America, you are just from one country, in a collective region called the Caribbean, and a wider region called the West Indies, remember these things.

      @@thelivingroom6172 How do you think it's discrimination? It isn't.
      It is just quite unusual for many small nations (citizens), particularly Island nations, to not need a visa to go into many countries, not just re Europe.
      It's only about re where (would think) visas be required, and not. That's all.
      There are some other Nations passports besides British & U.S. Passports that you won't need a visa, for Some countries, but of the 200+ Nations most of those (citizens) will require a visa to visit most countries.
      [Google the 'Countries Passports Index' & best to have (top will surprise), & scroll down to see which aren't so good - there's a few that will surprise, down that end.
      My country's passport can get you into a number of countries without a visa, but my next door neighbour not only got stopped as didn't have visa (when didn't need one), but didn't even get into a country. Definitely no racism. And his girlfriend was ok'd in, as she had a different country's passport as is a Dual Citizen.
      Even when might not need a visa, depends how long will be there, & for my country it's max 90 days (can be non consecutive, but no more than for total of one 6 month period) for 27 EU countries. Other EU, need a visa.
      The U.S. (short-terms) visa waiver program applies to only 40 countries. [Includes Croatia]
      EU's is split into regions, so may need for one region, but not another.
      [I think that may be what caused the confusion for custom's officer].
      Also, while may not need a visa, for some places, very often do require a Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA/ETA) instead.
      Go to your own government's information site/s, find re travel/visas, & it may surprise you where you need a visa for, & where you don't.
      The countries included or excluded re any particular country's passport & if need a visa if coming from there, changes all the time. In 2019 may not needed a visa, in 2024 may
      **My comments Only relate to Staceymet's comment, that you replied to.
      They do NOT relate to the video.
      [As always re international travel, don't use any comment on social media as being great info re passports, visas, etc & of course make sure to check thoroughly requirements relevant]

So I planned an escape for 3 years and execute it. Now I have a US passport. I started travel to get to know my new country and so far I visited 48 US states.

I became very suicidal until one day i opened TH-cam and saw a video from Tayo “Amazing Life of the MAASAI PEOPE of Kenya” changed the direction of my life. I saw a reason to keep following my dreams and live to make myself proud. Tayo has been a big influence to my life. Him documenting his journey has helped me pick up my mobile camera and start creating, learning and developing on cinematic storytelling and skill sets. Thank you Tayo Aina❤️.

      What about trying other countries like the UK, or even a European country like Finland or whatever. Once you live enough in those country to be a citizen, you'll be able to travel to the US or Canada, and try to apply for a job and get residency there.
      I'm not saying that's your case, but in my opinion, some people are sometimes too fixated in one or two countries instead of broadening their horizons.
      There are many immigrants in France that live in the forest and try every single day to illegaly cross the border to England. We have the same standard of living in France but it looks like to them they're in a third world country and England is a first world country and that's where they need to go. I know they have a much bigger community in the UK, but still. Instead of puting their strenght into making a life in France and once they get residency or citizenship they could more easily cross the border and carry on with their lives in England.
      Anyway, good luck to you. But broaden your horizons. I've been to Canada not in the US, but no country is a Paradise. Most first world countries have the same living standard. If you want to stick to your community, like many who come to Europe, the best place is to stay in your country. That's logical.

      As for the UK for being one of the toughest countries to apply for a visa, I have no idea, but I trust you on that one.
      I mentioned the UK just as an example of a possible candidate among other European countries and because english is spoken. I wasn't to say it was easy to get a visa out that he should specifically try to apply for a visa for the UK.

There's this common saying in my place which says "those who had their kernels cracked by a benevolent spirit, should not laugh at others who didn't have theirs cracked" this saying, depicts alot. I have been denied not less than 3times at 3 different countries embassies or visa centres. Once one is born a Nigerian! You are trailing destiny/life/basic needs of life behind with almost 10 goals.

Wonderful thing you're doing! Hope your channel grows beyond your wildest expectations opening up opportunities for you.

    This warmed my heart in no small way. One thing that stood out to me, is how you first got the necessary information you need, then went ahead to work towards it. To your subscribers and followers, you were just putting out content back to back from 2022 - November 2023, but what we couldn’t see was the big picture - to be able to apply for the better passport. That part brought tears to my eye, as I could relate personally. It encouraged me to stay focused on the big picture, while putting in all the necessary work (eg: applying for my Masters, while utilizing all my skills to raise as much money as I can to start my application).
