    As a Puerto Rican married to a black woman, I can say it is always pleasant to see people from my wife's background visiting my island. The only advice I can offer is to learn Spanish if you do not already speak it. While most people in the San Juan metropolitan area may know English, this is not the case in other parts of the island, such as my hometown of Ponce. I encourage you to explore our island and enjoy your stay.

      Yo, you gotta check out "Las Justas" this weekend! They're gonna have some sick artists and entertainment. It's from the 25th to the 27th in Mayagüez. It's like the sports competitions for the universities, and it gets lit at night. If you're going, I suggest you stay at a hotel 'cause it's like a 3-hour drive. Trust me, it's worth it!

    • @cthulhux6361
      @cthulhux6361 4 месяца назад +6

      Yes, we come in all colors of the rainbow. You can have one blonde with blue eyes and you can have one that is black and everything in between. This is because of our racial makeup. We have African, Spanish, and Taino Indian (a type of Indian that only lived in the Caribbean islands and parts of Venezuela) ancestry. But since the island is so small (the smallest of the Greater Antilles), we are very mixed with all three races.

    As a puertorriqueño, my recommendation to those who are going to visit; come with a blank slate. Try to leave your preconceived notions home. All of our heritage that is indigenous, African and Spanish have made huge contributions to who we are as a nation (yes, we think of ourselves as a nation of people.) Island people don't live in isolation from one another, so we're more open than may be customary or comfortable for continental people who are not Hispanic.

      Let me teaches you something very important to Puerto Rico's geography. Puerto Rico is an Archipielago not an island. You are standing up on the Big Island of Puerto Rico. To the eastern of the island you'll find Vieques Island and Culebra Island. This two Islands are populated as well. If you visit the western of the Big Island you'll find Mona Island, Monito Island and Desecheo Island. This three island aren't populated and are forest preserve but you can visit them with a visit authorization from the DRNA (Departamento de Recursos Naturales y Ambientales). That's what I been told about the western Islands of the Big Island of Puerto Rico. What I know for sure of those Islands, according to the tv news, is that there are always security guards on those islands. That's great because you'll feel in a safe place.

      Drinking in public is not legal. If you get caught you can get a $600 fine. Some places like Placita Santurce have an area where drinking is allowed since traffic is cut off, similar to Fiestas de Las Calles or Las Justas, it depends on the occassion and location, but in the end, no, it is not legal to drink in public spaces. You can drink in the beach, which is public :) but not on the streets.

    Welcome to our precious Island of Puerto Rico the crime it depends of where you go and again if you don’t get involved with the wrong person or stuff if you know what I mean specially if you go by the proyects (Caserios) if you go you have to be respectful not flashy at all don’t show too much money ect.. but if you’re polite and respectful they be real cool to you just be careful and enjoy Puerto Rico

    Congrats on moving to PR bro.. I’m Puerto Rican and been thinking about leaving NY and moving there.. just keep in mind your in San Juan that’s extremely tourist so it’s completely a different experience than going more towards the other end of PR.. you want the tru Puerto Rico experience head towards Agusda, San sabastian etc you will see what Puerto Rico is really about.. but keep in mind Puerto Rico is EXTREMELY dangerous the murder rate and crime is through the roof.. but as long as you don’t get into things your not supposed to be doing you be fine.. just be careful going to bars in random places.. over all it’s a beautiful island I visit all the time and I’m dying to move there.. rent is Extremely cheap in Puerto Rico other than San Juan because that’s tourist capital.. you can get a 2-3 bedroom house for anywhere around $300-$600/month.. as a matter of fact I was going to move last year to this nice 3 bedroom house with back yard, drive way, car port, fenced in, two floors etc for $425/month it was in San sabastian..

    3:01 When I was in the mountains saw a guy driving out of the gas station drinking a beer with an open window, I was a bit surprised because the U.S. at least in the state I live in they are very strict with alcohol. The drinking age in Puerto Rico is 18, you bet I was drinking some drinks over there.

    • @trilleats

      May see someone with open container but if they see a cop they will hide it. And some places you can drink on the street some places you can't at least not in the beer bottle or beer can usually the bar will serve in a plastic cup so it's less obvious.

It's a bit expensive, but sometimes I just get the burger and fries with a couple of their IPA beers because it's affordable. If you are willing to travel to the West, there is a very popular beach spot called "Crash Boat Beach" in the city of Aguadilla. There is even an IPA beer named "Crash Boat," in honor of this beach. ⛱️ Your car GPS should get you there fairly easily. Also, in the West, there is the city of Rincon - another great beach town - with a good restaurant named "Estela."

    Welcome to Puerto Rico, I'm glad you like it here. Just a disclamer is not legal to drink om the streets, most of the police dont care too much about it but it is ilegal so be careful.
