Costa Rica is a blessing for African-Americans. CR and Colombia are two of the most welcoming places for black folks. Black ex-pats will never regret moving to Costa Rica.
OMG! This is just what I needed. I am a Black Amerrican here and sometimes I feel a little alone and isolated. The Costa Ricans don't make me feel this way but it is just apart of the experience of adjusting to a new place. I definitely would like to meet this amazing woman and her group for support and encouragement as a new Black American Expat. Thank you so so much for making this video! This really made my day!
You’re so blessed you live in a beautiful and peaceful country. I visited Costa Rica for the first time over the summer and I fell in love! The people were warm and loving. The food is delicious and healthy. I lost weight on my trip as well because of the fresh food and daily walks. I have a lot of respect for the locals because it’s impressive that they can live in parts of Costa Rica that are hot and humid. I stayed in Monteverde for a few days and the humidity was a little intense especially after receiving rain lol
I'm an African American male Looking for another country to move to If you would like to share with me some of your experiences I would love to hear I've recently retired and I'm looking for some place to live that's not here in the US
My son moved to Costa Rica about 8 years ago, he loved it because he just became a part of Junkial a small community on the Pacific Ocean. I went down there last fall, had to meet my new daughter inlaw from Ukrane. I was surprised how many Tico friends he had, the younger kids called me pappa. Not bad for the dad of a total PTSD MARINE that couldent even funtchion in the US .He is now starting a business doing 3 D videos with his drone and 3D camera for a realtor and has the most wonderful wife he could ever hope for.
Thank you Michael for allowing me to get our story out there. The interview was a hoot and I really enjoyed meeting you & D'Angelo in person, finally....LOL See you soon when we get up your way!!
I m Costa Rican and i m very glad that she feels welcome , and even tho i m not black i have never ever experience anything discrimitacion on anyone any color in my life , i dare to say that if there is racism in cr is very minimal , i happen to live close to grecia.
Not YET! I LOVE Costa Rica soooooo much!!!! However as an American those white people coming down their will start the shit sooner than later as they ALWAYS do WHEREVER they go!! I was traveling and passed the Dole farm which crop dusted everyone on the bus with chemicals. I immediately knew what was up because the farm is in the Caribbean ,"darker" area of the country. After 3 seconds of research I learned that it was making men infertile for the past 20 years or so. You simply CANNOT trust them and as soon as you open the door for them to buy up real estate it's the same EXACT time they're planning their take over and it ALWAYS starts by turning the locals against each other and making them rude to white foreigners in which they will pay the police/government to do something about it AKA arrest detain and separate the locals. AKA gentrification. It's unfortunate that seemingly EVERY dark culture around the world takes the "friendly" bate but NEVER remember they are the same people that keep them starving and or fucked them up in the first place. I wish NOTHING but the best for NATIVE Costa Ricans as they are amongst the BEST people I've ever had the joy of talking to and interacting with in my 12+ country travels. PURA VIDA!!!!!!
Hi I’m coming to Costa Rica for about a week and a half. Where do you suggest we stay and go for new years ? We were thinking of staying in 2 places either San Jose, near Liberia, near Manuel or Puerto Viejo. What do you suggest ? Thank you
I really enjoyed this interview and look forward to connecting with Devon. Thank you both for the opportunity to learn more about living abroad in Costa Rica!😊😊😊😊
White girl from the Bay Area, currently living in Colorado caring for my mother, moving to Costa Rica next year. I'm so excited to know of your radio station! I'll check it out! I hope you play Brazilian music as well 💞
Oh great! Lol I’m biracial black and white and want to leave America because of so much racial tension. It’s just waste of life to me to walk on eggshells in the US. I’ve wanted to move to Costa Rica for years! But if I was a white American I’d stay in America. America is mainly safe for and caters to white people.
Great interview. One of your best! This lady is super smart and I would love to meet her one day. Just one comment… Escazu is not Costa Rica. It is too Americanized. I live in the east side of town. Los Yoses, Barrio Escalante, Barrio Dent…no question … the best area of San Jose.. and not that many gringos. 40-50 bars and restaurants, mostly with with local people. Super safe. Close to downtown. Awesome neighborhood. I highly recommend.
Hi Natasha!! My name is Dawn and I am currently deciding which country to relocate to! We are the same age and I don't know about you, but I am excited and nervous.
I really enjoyed the interview. I want to move to Costa Rica in the future. I studied abroad there over the summer and I fell in love! I have yet to convince my husband because he’s so glued to the states, as for me I’m so over it lol I wanna hear more from the black community in Costa Rica please find more black interviewees 💕
I am looking forward to coming and spending time with you all and fellow neighbors.. Good opportunity to go and experience different things outside the USA
Another excellent guest providing helpful information. Michael, you never fail at providing great content for those of us interested in Costa Rica. Thanks again! 👍🏾 🇨🇷
Thank you Michael for all that you do. I watched your channel and joined Devon’s group as part of my research before moving to Costa Rica. This is now my second year here in Grecia.
I love this interview! I didn't realize she have a RUclips channel called "Black Expats Living Life Abroad." If that was mentioned in the interview.. sorry I missed it! I appreciate your content and the honesty in your videos!!
Lady COSTARICAN Black people are very United compared to USA 🇺🇸 Blacks in USA. 🇺🇸 are very very divided amongst their own self . They are so divided Omg. 😧 Please please please don’t bring negativity to my beautiful Costarica. Because I am Native Costarican and can’t wait to come back to my Beautiful Costarica am. a American Citizen as well as I naturalized years ago here in USA and I had a terrible culture shock here in USA We in Costarica are humble loving and please don’t mess up our beautiful country anyone want to move need to get rid off racism if they gringos and in the case of blacks they need to get rid of backstabbing their own black people ❤️Black people in Costarica don’t have the slavery stigmatized most of us don’t even feel black. So please leave the selfishness in USA 🇺🇸 BTW if anyone want to ask me about Costarica ?? Ask me because I can tell you about both countries better than anyone that just moved to my country. As I am real Costarican and unfortunately moved to USA 🇺🇸 years ago thinking that it was great but it wasn’t greater than my COSTARICA. So now all I need is to retrieve my retirement and head the hell back to my Beautiful loving Costarica 👍
That's not what black Costa Ricans told me when I was in Limon. Everything you said was racist, btw, including, that black Costa Ricans don't feel black. What does that mean?
I have been following Devon first with her blog and now through FB for many years. I have visited CR several times as a tourist and as I near retirement am thinking of staying at least part of the year.
This is a very impressive video....informative, interesting, and very easy to listen to. It's a really comfortable conversation between two very good communicators with good rapport. I loved it.
I am a single 67 year old woman and I want to make a change when I retire but a little worried about making move and not anyone. Hopefully finding this page will help me make a decision. I am now working but seriously want to start planning. Thank you sharing
I was in Guanacaste and the people in the area look like my cousins. I didn’t feel out of place. Now in the resort/tourist areas, they did not look like me. I still received the same treatment as the other gringos. So I understand her completely.
Thanks for sharing this great interview. Many of the things Devon talked about are so important for anyone wanting to move abroad. No matter what country you decide to move to.
@@bevtrue6937 Yes and it is is NOT the most affordable place to live however, it totally depends on "where" you are coming from. Compared to the Bay Area or places like NY, Costa Rica is super deal!!!
@@urbandoggs thank you for doing this interview. I've been to Costa Rica several times first, up in the mountains in La Fortuna and secondly and Guanacaste. I'm pretty sure I want to move there. But I have a very specific questions. I'm young and I'm a mom. I'm trying to find the links to your blog or podcast but it doesn't seem to populate here. I would love to learn more by following your info. Thanks
Thanks for sharing this. Costa Rica has been on my list of places to relocate to for several years. I'm finally visiting this year to explore and see what it's like.
I am SOOOOO GLAD that she said that though we are Black.When we see Blacks of a certain country i.e Brazil,Mexico,,Costa Rico, even Africa, Etc. WE are still seen as Gringos.Not meaning white but American, and they see us in relation to the US money.
Sorry in Africa Afro people does not identify as Black . No matter how dark a person is no one is calling themselves blacks. Keep that disgusting label in USA creepy label that only sees a human complexion. The rest of us Afro people are not calling ourselves blacks.
This was a great interview and I am very interested in visiting for due diligence prior to expating. I was considering MX, but wherever i go I want to be able to comfortably start my business there and that changed for me with my last visit to mx after we were extorted by the MX police and later learned of the cartel extortions of thriving businesses. So Costa Rica is our next stop!
Glad I ran into this vid. Me and my family want to leave Hawaii and move to Costa Rica. We both are retired and we’re thinking of Grecia as a place to raise our baby.
Great interview! I am of color, and have lived in Guanacaste for 9 years. Being a beach person, I could not pass up buying a beachfront home. I have enjoyed every minute of living in Costa Rica! However, to be frank, what no one likes or feels comfortable to talk about. When it comes to the vast majority of expat communities and Indigenous Tico communities. You do see and feel the economic and racial differences, to various degrees throughout Costa Rica.
I would love to video Costa Rica but have chosen to retire in Rwanda, Africa. We visited for a month and love the people. IMO, Africa is the best place for black people.
Very nice, interview, I lived in the SF. Bay Area for 40 years, Oakland, and Richmond, Originally from DETROIT. I just did an interview with Mrs Charlotte Van Horn, because now I'm in Panama. Stationed here in the early 1980's I was treated pretty nice, but that was 40 years ago, and now the millennials are not the same. I'm also thinking of coming to Costa Rica in July, for a conference, and I've put out 7 CD's over the internet. A very nice interview.
New subscriber here! :-) Michael, you are the real MVP here, for this video🌷👍🏼 I thank you immensely, for I too I'm ready to move to Costa Rica, and need all the information I can get from reliable sources. I'm on day 19 of my Spanish lessons and emptying my house. I hope to meet Lady Devon one day soon, and maybe you as well! I am definitely putting blaxit com on my social radar, looking forward to listening to it while I'm in CR making my morning coffee. 💜
Black expats doesn't say where you come from there are black people in costa rica already in a general sense when people move from one place to the next, national origin is commonly used to describe expats. Its like saying black expat living in martinique when the island is full of them already, although they would be alot different than americans, assuming you are one
I always ask them why they think that word black is only unique to them. And why they do not choose a colour green instead to remove this black label . And give themselves a unique identity that is only for them.
Got me to subscribe to the channel! Great interviewer and interviewee! Sad to know there is discrimination on the Caribbean side. Looking forward to checking out the radio station!
This is so great to see! I'm glad RUclips recommended this video. I'm looking for a Spanish Immersion school that hopefully isn't too expensive in Costa Rica, do you have any recommendations?
I don't know as a Costarican I don't believe we discrimante our black people. What happens is what happen s most places where black people live, they are more racists than white people treat them like. I fact I have so many good, very good friends here that are black people and I doin't feel any diference with my white or black friends. Skin color to me as for many of my friends has nothing to do with us.. Every body is more than welcome to our land as long as they come in peace and willing to share with us.

Costa Rica is a blessing for African-Americans. CR and Colombia are two of the most welcoming places for black folks. Black ex-pats will never regret moving to Costa Rica.
I don't think so,ticos are very racist......
Colombia is too dangerous due to extreme poverty.

Michael, you are the real MVP here, for this video🌷👍🏼
I thank you immensely, for I too I'm ready to move to Costa Rica, and need all the information I can get from reliable sources. I'm on day 19 of my Spanish lessons and emptying my house. I hope to meet Lady Devon one day soon, and maybe you as well! I am definitely putting blaxit com on my social radar, looking forward to listening to it while I'm in CR making my morning coffee. 💜

Black expats doesn't say where you come from there are black people in costa rica already in a general sense when people move from one place to the next, national origin is commonly used to describe expats. Its like saying black expat living in martinique when the island is full of them already, although they would be alot different than americans, assuming you are one
I always ask them why they think that word black is only unique to them. And why they do not choose a colour green instead to remove this black label .
And give themselves a unique identity that is only for them.
Where would you recommend staying to see if i like it to check out everything.
I am from Costa Rica ! Black and white , Asian Are the same !
Got me to subscribe to the channel! Great interviewer and interviewee! Sad to know there is discrimination on the Caribbean side. Looking forward to checking out the radio station!
Thank you!
Towards who? You guys are the americans you guys would be the ones receiving discrimination
This is so great to see! I'm glad RUclips recommended this video. I'm looking for a Spanish Immersion school that hopefully isn't too expensive in Costa Rica, do you have any recommendations?
I don't know as a Costarican I don't believe we discrimante our black people. What happens is what happen s most places where black people live, they are more racists than white people treat them like. I fact I have so many good, very good friends here that are black people and I doin't feel any diference with my white or black friends. Skin color to me as for many of my friends has nothing to do with us.. Every body is more than welcome to our land as long as they come in peace and willing to share with us.
Excellent!!
