    Love your video! I was born in Guatemala, but spent the vast majority of my life in Canada and now I am considering retiring there, so this is very enlightening and educational. Thank you.

    Coming from a Guatemalan, no we don't sit in circles and play drums at night. I hope that those "ex-pats" don't distort anyone's views on who we are as people. That's just white folks being white folks. Love Guatemala and it's history is riddled with them messing it up for the natives so I just hope they respect already established peoples. Liked the video, I'm just weary because our past. Bless

    • @sergiosala
      @sergiosala  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      good question! i will say Antigua is safer because is a rather small town, and the culture here is very peaceful. even tho there's pickpocketing as such, main income of the city is tourism so they try to care them much. BUT Medellin is still relatively safe, just need to be a bit more careful

    I think you work for Selena and do 'soft marketing' for them and lie that you are not sponsored when they pay you and practically all your videos you end up staying at Selina and giving them promotion and even have coupon codes so they know how much business you are driving to them, why do you have to lie? just tell the truth, you are paid to do marketing for Selena
