You won't get shot walking in Laventille. I don't know whose putting the narrative in your head but I wish you would continue to expolore with an open heart, mind and good intentions. Laventille has mainly lower and middle class people, and they are not savages compared to the recent narrative trying to be pushed on the internet. As you explore my country, I hope you get to experience all that it has to offer. No place is perfect but my country welcomes all...is the trini way.

The problem seems to be that they are not doing any research or watching local KZbinrs' videos before they come. There is public transportation all over the island. There are buses and a ferry to San Fernando. He is a traveller. He should be able to explore on his own. I learned so much about south Trinidad when Sandy's Backyard Kitchen came to Trinidad. There was even a big Indian festival going on. It might have been a festival of lights. They seem to be coming without doing any research. They should also invest in tour guides. Trinidad is not a tourist island with everything put on a platter. I am not a KZbinr, but I am a solo traveler and that is what I do.
