I went to Trinidad with my girlfriend almost two years ago now. Stayed right in Port of Spain, it wasn't THAT bad we wandered around, met some really nice people, even went downtown to the main market street where we were literally the only white people and it just felt like a busy bustling city. We even met some guys while waiting for the Ferry to Tobago who said they were part of some gang, and gave us tips where to not go and stay away from east city. Everywhere you go in the world there will be bad spots and people you don't want to get involved with, you just need to know and follow your gut, obviously going to places like Iraq or Somalia would be dumb, but places with reputations such as this, don't let it fear you.

I went this year and had a wonderful time. Perfectly safe. I think there is a huge class divide in T&T. There are all the middle class and wealthy neighborhoods and upscale malls and restaurants, clubs, parties, all the beaches, nature and countryside etc. Then you have the ghettos of Lavantille, Morvant, Sea Lots and Beetham with a totally different environment. Judging the whole of T&T by those areas would be like judging the whole of the USA by its many violent inner cities and meth filled trailer parks. T&T is the wealthiest nation in the English Speaking Caribbean because of the oil, gas, manufacturing, trade and finance sectors, it does not even have to depend on tourism like other islands (though it gets lots of visitors for Carnival) but there is deep wealth inequality and corruption. There is also unbridled immigration from other poorer Caribbean islands.

***** it doesnt elate my mood as you say. i dont hide my country's problems. every country has problems. if you havent noticed there are comments about it being a shitty country and a black country with black country problems. i would not have ranted about you living here either even without your 'lovely' history lesson about yourself. i could care less if you became a doctor, a pope, or was a drop out as it has nothing to do with your question to me. if i had to hide my country's problems i would not watch this video or comment because id be in great denial. i do live here and deal with this shit every day as well as see its beauty. my comment was in regards to someone pointing out that other countries have flaws as well and all these people that watch this a look down on the country because they think where they live is sadly mistaken. of course my problems would ver be your problems wherever you are and yours may not be mine but at the end of they day they all have issues that need to be worked out. and i for the life of me dont know why i need to know how much of your class was indian. 100% of your class could be indian and it would not change anything i've said so please do explain yourself further if im just too simple to comprehend.

[@alieninthecaribbean]

This is showing one side of Trinidad and Tobago and admittedly it is awful. However, I lived and worked in Wooodbrook for donkey years. As a female, I felt safe walking to and from my office and apartment, even at night. Never had a single incident. My colleagues, friends, old school mates in Blue Range, Cascade, St. Anns, Westmoorings, Trinicity, Palmiste, Sando and Penal, all professionals, family men and women also never had violent run-ins with crime. Minor attempted burglaries and car break-ins which happens even in the US, UK and Canada may happen from time to time. Simply put there are TWO Trinidad divided down the middle by class. They don't usually overlap. If you are not living in the depressed areas or are involved in any illegal activity or Government bobal that can lead to being snuffed out, chances are your day goes on with little incident, save the minor misfortunes that could happen anywhere in the world. It's like judging all of Chicago by just the South Side or all of LA by Compton, which would be silly.
