- Cuban amazed reaction to best buy when he enters for the First time ever. From socialist Cuba where, like most everything, technology is "stuck in time" Yoel sees an American electronic store, Best Buy, for the first time leaving since leaving the island.

WHAT SHOULD BE THE NEXT VIDEO?? Food Reaction or Activity Reaction?
How about a food reaction? I have a great recipe for gumbo. Mawmaw taught me how. Still recovering from Ida but I can type out the recipe.
Food 🥑🥝
Activity.. professional sporting event!
Show him some TH-camr channels/ groups, like the Sidemen, Dude Perfect, Mr Beast and teach him how he can turn TH-cam into a profession while watching some fun videos as well
Food reaction is good.
You should take him to Dollar Tree. Curious to see his reaction to everything you can buy for only $1
haha good idea too!
Great idea!
Take him to IKEA.
Nice one
@@YoelAndMari Dollar Tree is a lifesaver for me. I'm poor right now, but Dollar Tree has helped me get things I need without making me even poorer.
It's always eye-opening to see an immigrant's first experiences here in the US. I hope one day all of Yoel's family and all of those in Cuba can enjoy the freedoms and luxuries that we have here.
Thank you Joseph. There’s plenty to come too! So many things we will be doing for the first time. We hope you can join us and subscribe to see more!
@@YoelAndMariWELCOME FRIEND TO THE UNITED STATES 😁😁😁😁 I HOPE U STAY IN THE UNITED STATES FOREVER 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Yoel is not an "immigrant". He's an escapee who is now an American. People who escape tyrannical governments and find freedom here are not immigrants.
From your lips to God's ears!!!!
@@dherman0001 and now he’s an immigrant
I'm a 52 year old American. I had no idea about the history and current condition of Cuba. I learn so much from you kids. You are so sweet. America welcomes good people like you. I'm praying for your success.
thats the problem with our schools and media :(
Thank you very much! Yes most Americans have no idea. But that’s ok.
@@YoelAndMari No.
It's not ok...
@@YoelAndMari I just wish most Cubans stay humble like Yoel.
Thats why people need to get out more u should see the fuckin situation in Honduras 😑
Every time I see Yoel’s reactions to seeing what we have here, I appreciate even more living in the USA!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I would think that's her #1 reason for making these videos.
It really make one reevaluate themselves and appreciate just how damn spoiled we are. This country need a reality check. 👍
It’s like watching a person who couldn’t see, or believe...
thank you for opening our AMERICAN eyes!!!
His reaction never fails to make me shed a tear or two. He always seem to be extremely shocked. 😢
My family is from the Philippines, and yes, I've had "Yoel's" in mi Familia as well. I had the opportunity to grow up in the US, but went back often for vacations. My mom and aunts still send care packages to the Philippines as often as they possibly can, from canned goods, to clothing, toys, electronics etc. Even something simple as candy and chocolate. Yes, they have these things there, but it's cheaper for us to purchase them and it's different coming from the US. I see the wonder in his eyes, and I feel the heartache that you have that your relatives can't share it with you. I pray for continued blessings and success of this channel and for you, Yoel and your family.
Yes! Exactly. I made this point elsewhere here and I’m Cuban American. The big differences are that there is freedom in the Philippines, freedom of movement, and, to some extent, economy.
Kababayan!!! Im here in the Philippines and have relatives there. Current conditions wont recommend travel so I guess I have to get by with getting the US stuff sold in stores here.
@@anamaria2053 It's crazy to think that if politics had went a little differently in the 1800s and 1900s both the Philippines and Cuba could've become US states, perhaps multiple states each.
@@DSiren or, we could have not blamed the Maine on Spain, and Cuba especially would be far different today...Not Becoming an American puppet state likely means no Castro as a result.
@@Solidaritas1 That's a journalist criticism. CNN of then.
Yoel I’m 36 and still play video games. You’re never too old.
Never
I'm 47 and I play everyday
I'm 55 and female will play till I'm 90.
I'm 51 and love to play
I'm 36 and I still play. I know a ton of people in their 60s that play. You're never too old for video games!
Yoel has taught me to count my blessings. I so wish I could give food, clothes and toys to every child in Cuba. So heart breaking
It wouldn't be that way if more people voted Conservative here.
I am right there with you. In America I have next to nothing. In Cuba, I have already had everything.
Give Cubans guns so they can remove the socialists/dictators.
@David Individual if everyone voted conservative homelessness would be out of control.. poverty would be out of control.. alot more ppl would be dying due to lack of healthcare and resources
Seeing through Yoel’s eyes is invariably inspiring, heartbreaking, amusing and simply precious. Thank you Mari and Yoel for sharing your journey. Praying one day Cuba and all other oppressed countries will be free and prosperous.
Too bad we're headed in the direction of Cuba.
By the way the average gamer age in the USA is 35! If you enjoy it Yoel, just enjoy it!
You're never too old for video games, you don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
@@Freeborn88 yep but Hispanics associated games with kids same with anime but gaming doesn't have an age limit just the limit of your imagination and if the game is for adult or kids.
Never ever to old to game
That makes me above average. Yay!!
I'm 36. This is correct
If Yoel ever gets a chance to visit Japan, the technology there would probably make him faint 😂😂
OMG that would be a dream!
Love you guys! Watching your videos has taught me to look at being an American in a different light. I take less for granted and have learned to appreciate what I have much more than I did in the past. Thank you for a lesson learned in each video I watch 💖😘
Thank you so much Michelle. That is our goal, also to show the immigrant story (put a face on immigrants) and also to show Cubans back home what could be. We appreciate your comment more than you jnow
Same ❤️🏆
I agree 160%.
You get different perspectives from different people.
It's kinda like food.
You may have never had escargot before but you're in Calais at a restaurant and you're amazed at the taste for the first time
I'm actually really impressed with Yoel's listening and english comprehension overall you can speak to him fully without any translation and he knows exactly what you mean. You've trained his ear very well he can tell most nuances that's awesome Mari good job!
I really enjoy Yoel’s ‘first time’ reactions…!
Thank you!
I wish we could send toys and food to Cuba too. I’ve become so much more aware of their lifestyles since watching your videos. Welcome to America, I truly hope you love it and fulfill your dreams here.
Roofing paper first. And a metric shit ton of portland cement. Gotta stop the water leaks and fix up the houses!
I'm truly perplexed how anyone in the US didn't know how Leftists destroyed Cuba.
It's shameful.
@@dherman0001 Back in the 1980s my High School Spanish language teachers taught us lessons about the history and cultures of Spanish speaking countries . They gave us lessons about the Spanish Civil War and the rise of Communism and Socialism in Latin America . I can only imagine their reaction if a student showed up to class wearing a Che t-shirt . OMG !
@@victorwaddell6530 I enjoy making people who wear those Tshirts very uncomfortable. I confront them loudly! Zero tolerance for fascists.
@@dherman0001 Well done , Sir .
he appreciates america more than most americans i hope he can stay forever we need more patriots is this country
*There is more to "America" than commercialism.*
Absolutely :)
@@pthesmith Sure thing creep.
@@dherman0001 *So there ISN'T more to "America" than commercialism?*
@@pthesmith Enough with your juvenile games. Do you have a serious question?
You've taken him to the top-shelf name brand stores & should think about taking him to a store for regular dudes like Harbor Freight. It's where you go to buy tools but can't afford to buy the best name brands. The selection and the prices is what will amaze him. If you ever get around to doing it I promise to send Yoel a Harbor Freight gift card.
Yes, he has seen many top shelf brand stores, and come out with nothing, like many of us here who decides to buy at Harbor Freight just to get a tool in our hands.
or any decent flea market
I've never heard of this place before. Thank you, I Google mapped this and found one close by. I'll be checking it out.
Your channel is what the USA needs to see. His amazement should remind everyone of our first world problems. No so problematic, are they? Thanks again, I love your channel and wish you both the success you deserve.
Consumerism isn't what it's all cracked up to be. If you go to the hospital you go bankrupt. Don't let the glitz fool you.
@@Bo55world That’s what insurance is about. Not saying we can’t do better, but I definitely don’t want a government run system. That’s not what our government is supposed to be doing. They can’t even protect our borders much less take care of everyone’s hospital bills.
People share this with friends and family. To many Americans don't know how good we have it. I saw this on business travel in Russia back in the 70's. The people of these countries are great it's the governments that are defective.
Thank you. We hope one day to become TH-cam creators as we love creating content and have been doing it in cuba for 5 years now.
@@YoelAndMari You are already on your way. Keep living your dream.
@@damien7157 nope...
@@damien7157 Sorry, but you are incorrect. Your post is just more of the BS taught currently in the US. Socialism and Communism are awesome and if it doesn't work it is somehow the fault of the US. The US currently has sanctions again Syria, Iran and North Korea in addition to Cuba. If you give in to brutal dictators like the Castro regime, then they will take everything. Castro is not interested in fair trade to benefit Cuban citizens. You never have free trade in Communist countries. The government elites keep most of the goods and money for themselves. You could park cargo ships full of food and electronics right on the shore of Cuba and the government would take possession, keep what they need, sell the rest to other countries and give the government officials raises while their people starve in the streets.
@@damien7157 Your words: "It is the only country where the Trading with the Enemy Act is currently being enforced". And my words in my reply: "The US currently has sanctions again Syria, Iran and North Korea in addition to Cuba." Same Enemy Act sanctions are being currently used against other countries.
It's so cool to see Yoel's reactions and to know they are truly sincere. I remember similar experiences when my great aunt and great uncle came to visit my abuela from Cuba in the late 80s and early 90s.
I show these videos to my sons so that they understand that even the poorest people in the US have a more comfortable life than most Cubans. And that we should never take for granted or fail to appreciate what we have.
As a proud American this channel makes me so happy that he got this chance to come here god bless both of you! I grew up in Miami and my best friend was Cuban!
I love your intro sequence explaining the history of Cuba and it's once prosperous and thriving charms and advanced, modern culture and lifestyle. I know because I've studied it, my knowing is also what brings the pain. Yoel is right, need some wallet in that place!
My name is Javier Vazquez. My family and I immigrated from Cuba to the USA in 1980 when I was 4 years old after a 14 year wait. I am the first ever Cuban-born Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black belt in the world. I love your videos. I’ve cried on everyone. People in this country need to see this. They need to see how Cubans live and how truly privileged we are to live in this amazing country. Thank you for your channel and thank you for sharing this amazing story. Blessings to you both Yoel and Mari.
This man ❤ you can see in his eyes the sorrow,anger,resentment he feels against Cuba
Proud to have you both as fellow Americans - thank you for sharing your experiences! I hope many of those born here are able to increase their gratitude for the U.S. as a result of your work. It would be my honor to buy you a beer should you ever travel to the southern Appalachian mountains.
IKEA, You HAVE TO take him to get lost in IKEA 😂
Yoel was so taken aback when he entered. It is such a shame that Cuba didn’t progress with the times because of communism.
Don't you think the embargo hurts more than the effect of communism? The people are well educated. Many Med students from other countries attend school there . They send heath care workers everywhere to assist .
@@karoberts2198 HEY! There is absolutely NO need to attack me like that! Yes, the embargo hurts them too. I was simply making a general comment. Wasn’t aware I had to be more “in-depth” to satisfy a person like yourself. So BACK OFF!!!
@@karoberts2198 The health care workers are forced to go. It's slave labor. You should do some research.
As to the embargo, they are free to trade with any other country and we don't interfere in any way.
Only the government imports things in Cuba. Even if Cubans had money, they are only allowed to buy what the Cuban government imports into the country. People cannot import anything anyway so the embargo has zero effect on them. Also, the Cuban government simply had to restore freedom to Cubans and relations will be normalized immediately. It's all in the hands of the typical corrupt Leftists running the Cuban govt. Send your blame letters to them and get your head out of your arsch!
@@karoberts2198 Sorry Ka... it's the dictatorship. Whenever the people cant vote and have no say in the who's turn it is to lead, its a GIANT EFFING ISSUE.
@@karoberts2198 Haha, no Ka. Any embargo from a foreign state is nothing compared to an oppressive communist dictatorship at home. It's theater and diversion to think otherwise. Cuba is Cuba because the government is oppressive, corrupt, and abusive. The people do not have the freedoms or resources necessary to progress. The fact that people need to "escape" Cuba says it all.
I’ve watched a few of these of him seeing things that we take for granted for the first time and him being completely amazed! He reminds me to stay humble and realize how privileged we all are.
Your videos are humbling and inspiring. I don't know either of you, but I love you both so much 🥰🥰
I got so emotional about the Lego. It reminded me of the last time I went to Cuba with my father in 2001 and brought small Lego sets for a bunch of my little second cousins there. They were so excited when we gave them out. I remember even more, the little boy who I brought a bucket of 100 farm animals to. Two years prior we had visited and he was so proud to show me his little collection of glass bottles and cans that he used as a mama pig and baby pigs and other farm animals to play with. So 2 years later when I brought him the bucket of animals his little mind was blown. It was a great feeling.
Again thank you for the video. I grew up not 'dirt poor' but 'poor'. We had rotary dialed phones way after touch tones came out. Had a black and white tv (tube) set many years after color came out. Worked 2 paper routes so the 4 kids could buy our own bikes and clothes. Got tired of hand me downs from uncles family etc. I built my own ham radio units out of spare parts and kits. I know somewhat he feels. Going over to friends houses that had color tv was fantastic. Then this was in the late 60's way before all these electronic life's we have today. I wouldn't trade it for anything. God Bless to the both of you and your families. Take care Spin
I remember those days. We didn't know how good the hard times were, did we.
@@sharondavis9541 In a way I knew we had it better. My late Grandmother use to tell us stories of the 'Great Depression'. Their large back yard was made into a garden. So it was 50 ft x 45 ft they traded produce for eggs from the next door neighbor raised in the city. (try that today) Granny was a tough lady - raised 6 kids alone after her ex-hubby skipped town. Lived to 90 and smoked like a chimney till the day she died. RIP Granny... miss you.
Yoel cries, you cry, and I cry for you. You are correct, we do not appreciate what we have which is why it is so easy to pretend life is "rough" here.
Bless you and I wish you all the best.
I really love his excitement over seeing what we take for granted. Maybe one day Cubans will be free. I hope so.
We pray for Cubas freedom every day. And everyday we are getting closer to it.
Yoel is always so amazed and happy to see what we in the US have access to. It makes me appreciate what I have even more. But I wonder sometimes if he doesn't get a little angry that we have so much and Cubans have so little through no fault of their own.
He does - but that is fault of Cuba not america.
Him hugging the PS5 is legit. I've been trying to get my hands on one of those since launch day. By the way, I'm in my 40's and still play video games. You're never too old, Yoel. 😊
Yeah seriously, it's so hard to find one of those. Yoel could seriously make some money reselling that on the market if he wanted.
Same here, I am 34 and I play video games every weekend. I was able to get my PS5 in December. But it took a lot of effort to get one , I was able to get one in a Target 5 AM drop. Without Twitter it would have been impossible. I even stood in the cold at 4 am outside of a Walmart in 2 occasions and barely missed the cut both times.
Thank you guys for reminding Americans that we live in paradise. I hope that you are happy and well here in this country all the days of your lives.
As a Canadian with Cuban husband I would like to see how Yoel is looking for a job and how he helps at home. My husband's reaction was exactly the same + he wants to but everything for his family in Cuba. I also took him to the museums on Toronto, Ripley's Aquarium, Niagara Falls etc. but I had a problem to teach him how to look and apply for a job.
Greetings from the Netherlands, Europe!
It's beautiful and humble to see Joel's reaction to all the things he's experiencing and for me it's cool to see what America has to offer.
I hope that a positive change is gonna come for all the families in Cuba soon and that they can enjoy all the beautiful things the world had to offer!
And for you...a humble thank you for allowing us to be part of this beautiful journey!
Thank you Peter. We hope to visit your beautiful country one day!
@@YoelAndMari you're more than welcome to visit! I would love to give you guys the full tour!
I am from Honduras, living in the US. My father, who is 81, still talks about listening to Cuban radio when he was little. Cuba was indeed the standard of advancement in Central America at the time.
Hello from Sydney, Australia!
Really enjoying watching Yoel's journey. He seems like a very humble person.
Thanks so much Sydney!!!! Wow. We hope one day to go there
I'm sad to see what your country has become gohypo :( hope things get better soon.
@@YoelAndMari hey, Sydney is a placs in Australia, not this person's name. I hope this helps 😁
It would be interesting to see his response to a thrift store. I honestly have no idea what he would think. Garage sale as a permanent business
We did garage sale and thrift store but it was shot vertically. So it’s not the best. Should we release it?
I say release it, but I am just one vote
@@YoelAndMari definitely release it, still be awesome to see, also, if you have the chance, and happen to be at one again, and looking at things, just record, even if on a phone. Always down for your vids. They are awesome.
@@YoelAndMari Yes, release it. What Americans give away because they are bored or want something new, would floor most people. Especially when you have a child once obsessed with Roblox but now wants to get rid of his shirts or pajamas, so off it goes and we take another trip to Target and Kohls.
Yes, good 💡
My friend met and married a lovely young lady from an Eastern Block country (in the 1980s) and brought her here to Canada. Her reaction to western shops was just about the same as Yoel's. The first time she went to a big supermarket the poor thing just went into shock and broke down in tears. So it is fascinating to see Yoel's reaction and how he feels bad for his family stuck back in Cuba. Love your channel and best of luck to Yoel.
you guys are amazing its like seeing a baby surprised by a toy or place. you lift my spirits. i lost my daughter a few years ago and when i came across your videos it really warmed my heart to see the excitement. keep them coming much love
If only the massive, themed Fry's Electronics still existed... Yoel would have been even more blown away, but they sadly exist no more. Once again, watching Yoel's reactions are a reality check for those of us that have always lived here.
There still exist Micro Center!
I just adore both of you! Again you have humbled me and made me grateful for everything I have. I look forward to the day Yoel can actually buy the things that amaze him.
If Yoel represents the personality of the people in Cuba, then Cuba is filled with amazing people. It is really fun to experience America through your eyes. Great channel, keep it up.
I appreciate seeing Cuba, both old & new, through your eyes. As much as I can tell that you love it, your sorrow is just as palpable. It hurts my heart!
As imperfect as America is, I'm so happy it's been good to you, that you've made a home here, & are helping us make it even better bc you two know, _first hand,_ how things can go very, very wrong.
We do. And thank you very much. It’s definitely a very hard struggle. Loving and hating it at the same time.
It would be amazing to have both of you go on a tour and speak in elementary schools about what the people in Cuba suffer through and to show these young kids how horrible communism is and how great this country is. Y’all need to see if you can get this going. There is no better people than you two to speak out against communism and socialism.
Yes! It's important for Americans to know how prosperous Cuba was before socialism.
Hopefully like liberal colleges those morons should be glad they get free money to pay stuff and have laptops and such to study in Vietnam you must pay a lot to pay fees and such you usually don’t get laptop to study because either the family is extremely poor or the technology is out of the budget to get one.
Seeing him in Best Buy reminds me of the joy of going in Toys 'R Us when I was a kid.
We never grow up. Our toys just get bigger, and more expensive.
I love just how big your hearts are. Anytime you sees things, it's not about "I can't believe I can buy this" it is always thinking about that still back in Cuba. For the ones who can only dream. Well hopefully one day those dreams become their new reality.
Well said!
I'm an American and I get all excited when I go into Best Buy....I can only imagine the level of joy and emotion Yoel feels going ther for the first time.
You are both beautiful, grateful, and kind. AMERICA IS LUCKY TO HAVE YOU. stay true to yourself, humble, strong, and kind.. Much love from Indiana ❤️❤️❤️ 🇺🇸 🇨🇺
I love the history you put into these videos. Educational and entertaining to see him with so much joy and appreciation
Another great emotional moving vlog. Mari, I don't where you get those video of Cuba. They are amazing! Yoel I want to hear more of your singing!
Searching TH-cam actually!!
I'm so glad you two go see ordinary things for Americans that are extraordinary for Cubans. I wish your Cuban family members and friends could have these things and that we Americans could appreciate more completely how fortunate we are. I pray that one day Cuba will be a free nation again. One more thing, we used to live in Miami and moved in 1991. I enjoy seeing how it is in MIami now. Many friends and acquaintances whose homes were destroyed in 1992 by Hurricane Andrew. I always cry when I watch your videos, tears of joy for you and of sadness for the good Cubans who may never have this experience.
I love his reactions! “Hasta se les ven los mocos a ese hombre!” 😂 I’m glad he’s a free man that can see all Cubans have been lied to about and denied throughout the last 60+ years. We can just hope that we see a free Cuba 🇨🇺 in our lifetime. His English is great by the way!!
I love these videos, and love to look at our world through Yoel's eyes, but now it's getting sad. Tell Yoel that you can rent games from the library. (Maybe take him to see one.)
Ok no fair now you both have me crying!!!! Thank You both for the reminder to be grateful for what you have.
I love that you always speak English to him. He’s deff very fluent and can understand almost everything but you build his confidence and push him to speak it. It’s a skill that will take him further speaking the language and you know how important it is. You’re too awesome.
I am so happy you are both in this country! It made me quite emotional watching both your reactions in the store. Have you thought about taking Yoel to a shopping mall? I bet that would really overwhelm him!
It's too bad he couldn't have seen Best Buy in its glory years.
Haha I remember. When people used to camp out for weeks
@@YoelAndMari What do you mean remember? People are still camping out for GPUs overnight right now, thanks to the pandemic supply shortages and Cryptocurrency boom.
I think a fun project Yoel can do in the future is learning how to build his own PC! Perhaps try and reach out to a Tech TH-camr and see if any are willing to assist Yoel with building his own PC? Or maybe reach out to a big tech company like MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte, Razer, etc, for some sponsorship so he can finally get a gaming laptop?
@@matasa7463 i haev 0 knowledge of gaming or PCs. DO those companies sponsor?
@@YoelAndMari yeah they do a lot of sponsored content for youtubers. Give it a shot and reach out - the big gaming brands do a ton of outreach and sponsorship.
Best Buy is my husband’s favorite store! His favorite section is the video games too! Great video!!!!
Haha I think all men turn into boys in that section!!
@@YoelAndMari 👍🏼😂😂😂
The sweetest thing is when he said " I love these legos" it's like a kid in a candy store. What a sweet guy
Been watching all your videos which makes think how these videos should be played on a loop everywhere here in the US, so everyone can learn gratitude for all the freedoms and opportunities we have and compassion for those who don't. Seriously we all need to see this
AND American politicians want to praise socialism so government can provide everything! My heart goes out to those that lack the same freedoms we have here in the USA.
American politicians DO NOT praise Socialism.....but many are critical of the disparity between the rich and poor here. It was recently reported that the wealthiest 1% of US Citizens have avoided paying over 130 Billion dollars in taxes for the year 2020 alone. Demanding they pay their fair share (like I do...like you do) is simply demanding them to stop being tax cheats.
@@goobfilmcast4239 Are you kidding. Look at Washing state. There are literally socialists in governmental positions. They absolutely have politicians praising socialism. Our form of government guarantees equal opportunities, not equal outcomes. That is up to the individual.
The top 1% wealth holders are billionaires, and so many of them don’t have to earn income. Therefore their effective tax rate is comparable to mine (about 15%). I’m quite sure my 15% is nothing compared to theirs. What is their fair share? And if they are simply taking advantage of the benefits the system gives them, that’s not illegal or cheating. If it were, the IRS would go after them.
This whole channel shows how unappreciative some Americans are with the everyday luxuries we take for granted. Our nation isn’t perfect, no nation is. But the negatives are overwhelming overshadowed by the positives. Someone like Yoel shows how someone who has had nothing understand how amazing our nation really is.
Imagine there are Americans really want America to be more like Cuba.
It's frightening. Fighting for your idea of change is one thing, but idolizing an oppressive dictatorship while living in one of the freest countries on earth is another. It's insanity, really. Very dangerous and toxic leftism is the cause.
Thank you both for reminding those of us fortunate to born in this great country just how much we have. Also, thank you for showing how advanced Cuba was before the communist regime of Castro took over. God Bless you both as well as your families. You should have well over a million subscribers, this is what more people in the USA need to see and experience through your eyes. Again, thank you!!!!!
Your purpose to open the eyes who have never seen, to educate us who did not know. And to celebrate life together. I think you both are beautiful people. Glad to be apart of your journey.
Thank you so much
It's wonderful- all of it. Yet they are just material things. Never more important than those we love and care about!
Good Afternoon from Las Vegas. Been following from your early days...I am originally from South Florida and some of my best memories are at my friends house, his parents came from Cuba. His Mom made us frijoles y plátanos and arroz con pollo (?)....was delicious....sorry for the google translation.....I enjoy your content....Glad you are here....bienvenidos
I just love how much Yoel is excited to do/try any and everything. We'd all be much better off if we could keep some of that excitement and wonder.
I'm obsessed watching your channel. It's beautiful watching him like a child just learning life. Blessings to you both.
Bring him up to Alaska sometime, it's an incredibly beautiful state.
Makes me appreciate things more and more how privileged I have been
I am addicted to your channel. I really enjoy Yoel experiencing with new eyes, things that many of us take for granted. It is so eye opening. We sure are blessed in the United States. I pray that someday your family will be able to come to America as well. I dont think those of us who are born here will ever truly appreciate the freedom we have like those who come here having lived without it.
Thank you so much! We are so glad you enjoy it and comment and engage with us. It means so much to us.
I’m tearing up as well. Yoel’s reaction is what makes America great. We need to appreciate what we have.
Don't feel ANY shame for crying please... I'm a born American and a combat vet...and your videos bring me to tears EVERY TIME. PLEASE keep doing what you're doing! GOD BLESS you 👊❤️👍
These videos show me how Socialism really works! It sounds so good when our government talks about it, but never truly appreciated what it does to a country and its people! Thank you for making me realize just how fortunate we are!
cuba is run by a communist government.
Always happy tears in these videos for me!! The wonderment in his eyes, I don't speak Spanish in but understand the emotional words and expressions he makes.
My Mom has a play station. She like Assassin’s Creed. It’s her favorite! I love watching these videos. It makes me appreciate what I have on a daily basis. Sometimes we forget because we are used to having everything. We forget that there are people who don’t.😢
Another reason we make these videos. So many don’t realize
Your videos are always a lesson in humility, thank you for that, and I wish you both the best :)
Thank you for watching!
I always cry during your videos. Love them.
You guys are doing more to honor America than I think you know! Thank you ❤️🇺🇸
what is sad is how easy it also is to take for granted the gifts we have in this country and later regret it. Cuba had everything and everything can be taken away. wake up America and give God thanks for all you have been blessed with before its too late. GOD bless America! Viva Cuba Libre!!!
Y dilo!!!! Por eso rezamos cada dia
Since he's in America now he needs to go to his first MLB baseball game
A Miami Dophins or Tampa Bay Buccs NFL game.....Ooooooooooooh, that would be nice. :)
This man has me in tears 😭
Thank you for sharing your story! All these videos make my heart so full for yoel that he gets to experience prosperity! Viva America!
I feel you mari!
Best Buy has always been my favorite store, and it’s so cool to see Yoel’s reaction to it! It’s even an amazing store to me, an American! 😂
Yoel as well as other Cubans appreciate everything thet have here. This is the main reason we go ballistic when Americans support socialism ( communism) obviously nothing they know about or have had to live through. Wishing you the best.
Take him to bass pro shop near 95 north

@@YoelAndMari The flagship Bass Pro Shops is in Las Vegas, if you ever go there; it is massive.

42 year old white Texan male here, I cried. That was poignant
Thanks for not only for the fun culture shock videos but explaining the harm Socialism did to the people of Cuba.
When my siblings and I were able to afford a new flat screen TV for our dad, he cried. We bought him a 75” Samsung flat screen TV and he watched all his shows there in awe of the big tv. We had the 50” inch bulky TV that our Aunt gave to us for 10 years. We came to this country bankrupt, despite being rich in our previous life in the Philippines. Our business went down, but our family didn’t. We’re still so blessed. I hope you guys stay safe and God Bless!
I love how you give the history of how at one point in time Cuba we’re at the forefront of the innovation. The first to jump on board with technology
For the same reason we are. We see and feel your joy you're amazement or happy you get to be here and see this.. and may God continue to bless you for sharing this with him and all of us
Hey Yoel like seeing your appreciation for what we have here…yes you work hard and you can have it all …I have been to so called “ unfortunate countries “… and I come back and I’m really feel fortunate being an American 🇺🇸…..you will run across people that don’t appreciate our freedoms here but don’t let them discourage you of your dreams …👍🏼
The singing/audition part had me rolling! Yoel, los Estados Unidos te da la bienvenida! Mari you should take him to try all sorts of different foods, sushi, mexican, japanese, korean bbq, vietnamese pho etc. I love his reactions.
Mari I really enjoy all the time and effort you put in in all of your videos and at the same time you entertain us and educate us with all of the interesting information about Cuba and all. Thank you both.
