I’m definitely considering leaving the US. I’m grateful to have found this video. I’m really interested and have so many questions. I feel like my soul is calling me to leave.
I heard Lisbon was great for black women .I like that she said she feels accepted and that she can grow. I am clearly trying to get out of the United States . It is getting really bad here.
I live in Uganda and it's awesome. The weather, cost of living and they speak English! 😀 The food is tasty, the culture is interesting, animals are amazing Come!
Thank you so much bc as a Black American Woman... I just wanna live in a place where I can just BE! @39:00 - THANK YOU for mentioning the different types of visas!! Had completely forgotten some of those!!
I'm from Barbados, visited Grenada and fell in love, it's beautiful, anywhere you drive is a nice view and the people are genuine and warm. excellent interview.
This post was 11 months ago, so… 🥳Congratulations for retiring! Are you living the dream abroad? I’m 35 and I totally want to drop everything and just live on the road! #NomadLife is calling me, because I’m single, childless, and honestly obligation-less! I’m just so scared to make the plunge! 😬
I am so encouraged and happy to see so many sisters wanting to explore a better life outside the US. This is fantastic!!!! Ladies don't let fear stop you. I'm doing it afraid! Leaving the US in 3 days to Jo'burg SA!!!!!! This is my second time out the country....1st time was 3 months in Jamaica.
I am really appreciating your content. I am a 61 yrs old and spend countless hours dreaming about retiring to another country. I am taking in all of the advice and now have a better understanding of where to start my research. Thank you so much!
Good luck to you. I'm almost 69 years old and am thinking that it's too late for me to leave the USA so I'll live vicariously through you. Keep us updated.❣️
Moving abroad to South Africa this weekend!!! Thank you for your content I just downloaded your checklist so I can double check I have everything together. I'm 54 and disabled.....it's never too late.... believe in the Most High and He will make a way!
@@keepitmovinginternational3367 unfortunately there is so much crime in South Africa and Rape is of women and children is a daily norm and the justice system couldn’t be bothered. I’m a South African and looking to leave with my daughter
Grenada! I was born in the US and I got my Grenadian citizen via my parents too! ❤🇬🇩 I also didn’t like Grenada growing up but learning about its black revolutionary history made my love Grenada. This makes me rethink my countries where I could move to.
seems like a good test would be to spend two weeks at a hotel in that city & if ure not tired of it/ready to leave at the end then u probably wouldn’t mind living there
Thank you for this! Getting different perspectives from different areas of the world from different women is empowering in opening ourselves to new experiences and better lifestyles outside of the US.
Thank you!! I'm a picky black girl who loves to travel too! From your first words you had me.. I saw Black Excellist too.. but are there any countries that are right for ME??? Bless u chile 🙏🏼
I'm enjoying this lady that's from Detroit shout out to her it's my birthday coming Sunday of the new week and I'm thinking about as I stack my money and wanting to get out of Michigan and in a different country that the weather is not always hot nor severely cold. 🥰😵‼️😉✨🎂😘😬 But a place that is reasonable in price where you're not just looked at a target for being a tourist. 📆🎆😇😎🤔🍹💰
Hi Moni! This is Shar, the person featured from Detroit! Happy Birthday!!! I hope it was beautiful. Glad you enjoyed this video. Adalia's content is always so good! Looking forward to seeing more on this topic. Based on what you mentioned that you are interested in, I would look into Portugal.

How is the government laws in other countries? Is there videos on this? I hear people say US government is still better than other government laws but I would like to hear firsthand experiences on it
Loving this channel, I Love what you offer, You cover much needed info in great detail & when you have guest you ask questions that not only are questions i have but you stay on topic & actually get the answer unlike other expat channels i have visited. Thank you.
I am from London, England and I truly want to leave this country. I want to move elsewhere in Europe, to the countryside, not any cities where you're more likely to find a mixed population, but it truly is more of a struggle when you're black because racism exists. I don't want to make such huge commitments only to have to deal with racism from locals constantly and that does happen. I'll keep looking.
Unfortunately we cannot completely escape racism or sexism, we can only seek to mitigate the impact. Lots of Brits have fled the UK post brexit for Portugal. Of all the EU member states, it's one of the most promising , plus cost of living is one of the cheapest and +300 days of sunshine a year. After South Africa, its next on my list.
@@lalabell2 im South African my thought is check out African-Americans youtubers in South Africa,their company called The Real South Africa they will give you the whole information about South Africa.As far is racism's concern they are fewer incidents but media will post them as if its happening everyday,never experience racism since early 90's because white person knows he/she will be put in her right place just calling you with racial profiling its prosecution.More than that you will get it when you are there thank you
linked to this vid by my girlfriend (also 60ish n white)Thank you for making, love the format of people who know a place there speaking directly. at 9 minutes she says the most essential thing about relocating I ever saw on social media
Do you mean the xpat app? Or the word, expat? Expats are people who have expatriated to another country outside of their home country. The Xpat app is for Black people who want to connect with others living abroad or planning to do so.
Looking for some assistance from you with moving to Greece, the most affordable city, where it is not too hot because I have allergies so I need a climate that’s more cooler with humidity not too high humidity but nothing with dry heat I noticed in Greece, etc. income have to be 2000 or more to be accepted there from another country for $24,000 in the bank so if you can Please assist I would greatly appreciate it
I guess, I am not a black person but I do like your videos. And it is true the norm for Mexicans is that only whites move out from USA to live down here , but is good having people like you in Mexico. Hope you are not too picky about how things work in Mexico, see yaa.
@@nymike06 Nope. Not really, to me, race is not an issue. White, Black, Blue, Yellow people are all welcome to México. I was just saying that my neighbours had always been non-blacks from USA. Even centroamericans are also welcome, even so migration has become an issue in Mexico; the transit of so many people across the México is causing some problems. Cheer up!

There's nothing wrong with being a black nanny. If its not for you then its not for you, but that's it. There's no shame in it. Don't stack your own trauma and conditioning on it. In fact lets stop bonding over victimization all together, and just heal with out fetishizing the negative aspects of the black experience.
sorry i don't know why youtube doesn't show me responses to my comments in a timely manner or at all. I can't remember who was expressing shame about being a black nanny now, but I have the same opinion as a month ago about it. No shade, and I appreciate you a lot, but that's what I have to say about that... to whomever might feel as such.
There is a historical context to that employment that most bw appreciate and understand. If you enjoy "the help," good for you but respect the larger view and spare us your lectures.

It's true that being a tourist and actually being a resident is entirely different.
I’m torn between Mexico City and Lisbon!!!!!! By January (when my lease is up) I have to make my move!!!
where did you end up going?
Lisbon is fantastic, Amsterdam even better
What's the cost of living in Lisbon?

Go for it girl you only live once, maybe even try living in a different country for a month and see how you like it, it doesn’t have to be permanent.
I so enjoyed reading your comment! same here, minus the fact that I have one child-unschooling, and loves to travel just like me!

Who is that one hater with the thumbs down? Lol always good stuff thank you.

It’s probably a hard to program person. Not believing their brown skin is “black”. Disgusted by those who do…
What is the process in obtaining a residency in Portugal 🇵🇹? What are the requirements? How long can you stay in the country without residency?
The ladies over at Exodus Summit put on an awesome workshop about getting residency in Portugal. Check it out exodussummit.com/workshops

Glad you enjoyed it!
Brave ladies ❤️
