Port-au-Prince is definitely a place that plays no games. Thanks for joining me on this trip, looking forward to bringing you along as I journey through this wild country that is called Haiti. It’s going to one hell of a ride. Much love to all the Haitian people. I just published a fresh photo from Haiti here: instagram.com/indigo.traveller/ Thanks for watching 🇭🇹

@@sharonthebaron88 Wrong. There is no difference. It's still reportage. It doesn't have to be print for it to be journalism. The broad definition of journalism as seen by traditionalists is that journalists attempt to present the viewer or reader with objective facts. High-quality documentaries also attempt to present the viewer with factual information on a specific topic. Ergo, documentary filmmaking is journalism.

I travelled solo and independently to Haiti in October 2009 for four days (three months before the large earthquake). Living standards were, at the time, very low, but gang activity was minimal. It was safe enough for me to walk around Port-au-Prince and Petion-Ville without a guide. The people I met were lovely, and although very poor, seemed upbeat about the future. It is absolutely heartbreaking to see what Haiti has become.

This was far from great reporting. It was chalked full of click bait and sensationalism for views. Haiti is actually one of the safest countries in the Western Hemisphere and has some of the lowest crime rates. There is only one pocket in Port au Prince that has violence and anyone who generalize Haiti based on this area is a fool. But per usual the media influences everything people say or feel about Haiti. If I went to the heart of south side Chicago where violence is prevalent and that is where I mainly hung out, then sure I'd probably think all of America is unsafe and breeds violence. People watch channels that don't have an agenda that report on 3rd & 4th world countries. This channel isn't one of them.

@@IndigoTraveller do better. You can't seriously be this uninformed. What's worse is the fact that you spread misinformation for views. You went to the worse area and then act as though that one small area is all of Haiti. That small pocket in Port au Prince where violence happens is so insignificant to the whole island. It's the media and youtubers like you who want views who spread misinformation. I can't image how you sleep well at night knowing you spread lies. Jamaica's violence is actually 10x worse than Haiti. If you don't believe do the research.

I believe Haiti will bounce back. When that happens, I will go enjoy the culture, music, food, and landscape of my mother's country as an adult.

as a woman of Haitian descent, I am feeling very warm at how this video is making an effect on you guys. Also, all the wishes for Sean and for his safety are very kinda but I want you guys to remember that these videos are filmed in the ghetto parts of Haiti. Sean may very well live in the actual good parts of Haiti.. like Upper Delma or the places a lot of your celebrity favs visit. Instead of feeling sorrow, just donate :) and, while you’re looking at all these rough videos of Haiti, take the time to search up the nice parts as well

I am Haitian living in the US. I left Haiti 18 months ago so I'm a fairly new immigrant. I was a Primary Care Physician over there, came to the United States to do my Master in Public Health and started proceedings to stay permanently. I am from a privileged background so I cannot say I have experienced the full force of poverty and violence. I went to the best schools, traveled, studied abroad. I love my country and there is nothing I would want more than to go home, reopen my private practice and serve the population. However my home is three houses down from where the President lived and was assassinated. I'd be in fear for my life every day and this is no way to live. I have people dear and near who have been kidnapped and killed. I myself was kidnapped and freed after my family paid a ransom that ruined us financially. Still, I speak English and I am highly educated. I am in a better position than most Haitians to hire an immigration lawyer and come to the States the legal way. I still miss home and long for a day when we can safely return. ❤️🇭🇹

He thrives on spreading fear and causing people in "developed" countries to believe that they're superior to those in "lesser developed" nations. Show your students Drew Binsky, Bald and Bankrupt, Ace Live, Jay Cee Max, or any of the other hundreds of KZbinrs out there. Some videos only have around a 100 views but give an objective perspective rather than highlighting just the bad. As an example, just compare how Jay Cee Max portrays Honduras to the way Indigo did. Jay Cee's videos only got around 40k videos, but at least it was an honest perspective rather than just clickbait.

I served as a UN peace keeper in Port-au-Prince in 1995 during Operation Uphold Democracy. A ravished country with beautiful people. So sad to see this. The corruption is its downfall. Wonderful people, many talented artists. Their University Hospital is like stepping back in time. Our unit repaired their MRI and anesthesia machines, and we cleaned up the pediatric ward. I wish more people could see the good side of Haiti; it’s people minus the gangs of course. We lived at the Light industrial complex near the airport. The public transportation trucks are called “tap taps.” The running joke is, “how many people can fit into a tap-tap? One more.” They are called tap taps because the passengers ride in the back of the truck and tap tap on the roof to let the driver know they need to stop and let them off. We visited an orphanage up in the hills. The children were so sweet and well-behaved. They showed us the orphanage cemetery where their passed friends were. So sad. The world can do better for Haitians until they can do for themselves. We were supposed to be there for a humanitarian mission, yet we were discouraged from sharing fresh water with the kids on our compound. These kids would shine our boots for us. We would slip a dollar, a bottle of water, and a snack into the boots. They always brought the boots back. Most Haitians are honest people who have no tolerance for crime. As there are few police, Haitians will handle thieves themselves with street Justice. It’s the only way to maintain some sense of order. Some of my colleagues donated money to send kids to school, since most families can only afford to send one child to school. We brought food staples to the University Hospital to help feed patients. We were told to deliver it to Administration. I KNOW none of that food ever made it to Haitian patients. Corruption.

A few years after the disasterous earthquake, the son of some friends was offered a 2 month job in Haiti, during his Summer break from University. He was one of a team sent to source sites for mobile phone masts. He was accompanied by security guards every day and managed to sign up numerous sites. He made a lot of money but could see that the country was sinking into a dangerous mess. A well known mobile phone company was determined to have the most sites. He saw mountains of food aid products on sale on the streets. This was aid sent by countries to feed the population. Corrupt Government officials sold the aid to street vendors. It's sad to see such poverty in the most beautiful of countries.

@@IndigoTraveller Why do men and women focus only on money together instead of on each other directly in the mind? It’s really obvious human beings are psychic. It’s cowardly and a distraction to focus on the material instead of love. No amount of money or material development can help with a bad mood. Only honesty in the mind of someone else can help raise our moods and emotions, and we can only see honesty when we show honesty first. Why are men allowed to be authoritarian socially, violent socially to each other, and violent towards women without question? Is there a specific type of facial feature or body type or skin color or amount of money or religion that gives men a free pass to act like violent and aggressive douchebags and wild animals? Why are these behaviors still popular and socially acceptable in the mainstream? Why can’t men and women focus on telepathy and friendship openly and directly together, which is love, instead of on things, stuff, religion, money, reputations, careers, government, politics, and authoritarianism?

In my country Greece we also have economic problem but its because of my politics and usually most countries have problems responsible are politicians... I just say that!!! Now here in my city i met and became friend with a Haitian guy and because i like learning new language he managed to help me learn Creole which is the official language of Haiti no matter if i couldnt learned because it was hard for me!!! I really thank him and i wish in future all the best for his country Haiti and its people because they dont deserve all those problems they have and ofcourse as i said earlier i love Haiti and its just me but i have one more reason to do because Haiti was the first country that Recognized the Republic of Greece!!! So... I wish all the best to that country and i wish in future Haiti and Greece to become very nice friends and improved our relations... Stay strong my friends!!! God bless all Haitian people because they deserve all the best i hope all your problems will stop some day and if my policians are good they should stop help Turkey which they dont respect or like my country and insult every day my people and me also and better send help in future to countries that they are need help for sure... Unfortunatelly some people looking for their pockets and their own selfs when there are lot countries out there and its people that asking for help and cant get any support for no one!!! Thats sad to me because we are all humans and we need all to be united and have good relationships because life is short and every human needs to help other humans but all we do is nothing...

Recently, I've seen disparaging comments that Haitian descendants have made toward African Americans. I've always wondered, other than wanting their family to join them in the US, how do the Haitian immigrants in the US and their children help their native homelands? As a Black American, I am thankful that our people continuously fight for change. It seems like the most forward-thinking in Haiti leave and never look back.

This is the first video I have watched on your channel. I was hesitant to check it out when it was suggested in my feed. I decided to try to listen to it while I was cooking my dinner. A few minutes into the video I had to turn it off and finish cooking so that I could sit down and watch it with my full attention. I was very impressed with my first impression. Extremely captivating and very informative. The lack of fluff and the amount of genuine interaction with common citizens expressing their realities was refreshing. I finished this video feeling like I had a small grasp on the actual conditions and hardships of the citizens of Haiti. There was no narrative, agenda, or propaganda of any kind pushed at me. It was simply a survey of normal people in everyday life and I am grateful for the information I have received from it. I am about to subscribe and I am hopeful the rest of your videos contain similar content. Thank you!

All the corruption and insecurity is based in the capital. I spent 4 years in university in now what you can considered as one of the worst part of Port-au-Prince. It’s called the “bicentenaire”. Since 2018, things went from bad to worse and now this is and absolute war zone. Like you said, these guys don’t play games down there.

It's the combination of corruption and disastrous foreign meddling, honestly. I still feel as if we have no idea what went on with the assassination there this winter. People say Colombians and gangs, but Colombians don't just up and fly across the Caribbean to assassinate Haitian presidents without being ordered to. Gangs probably don't either. Who paid them? Who wanted him dead? To me at least all fingers point, or should point, once again at the US government. The last thing he did was refuse to force vaccinate the people at exactly the same time as Joe Biden was trying to force vaccinate Americans. That's my take. He was killed for not toeing the US/WHO line. So when they get that sort of stuff on top of everything else, society collapses. It's the exact opposite of helping. If we want to help, or perhaps "help" like the last few times, we need to first open our eyes and send anyone other than US or European politicians. Nick made himself more useful in Port au Prince than Hillary Clinton ever did just by making this video. I know it's not a political video, but he should have asked the locals about her or Obama. I think he would have gotten many colorful replies.

I'm retired U.S. Army and deployed to Haiti for 6 months in 1994, Gen Raoul Cedras had just fled the country. Back then Haiti was exactly where it is today, poor and totally corrupt. During my time in Port au Prince we restored power, clean water, and repaired infastructure to get the country running again. The U.S. brought back President Aristide from exile to run the country, untold amounts of foreign aid and money have been thrown at Haiti for what we see today in this video. It really saddens me to see this, nothing has changed and no amount of money will fix this until the corruption is stopped. Haiti's problem can only be fixed from within, the Haitian people have to decide how they want to live.

Yeah, and the US toppled Aristide a few years later and kidnapped him into exile in the Central African Republic during the Bush administration. Just last year the president was assassinated by Colombian and Haitian-American mercenaries, most likely over drug trafficking revenue. The US involvement in Haiti is shady to say the least. CIA and DEA are corrupted agencies. The common poor Haitian has very little influence over the international drug trade and its concomitant corruption. Haiti is a narco state completely exploited by its own elite and international organizations be they governmental or non-governmental.

I've spent many months in Port-au-Prince. It had been about 4 years since I was last there because there has been to much unrest. I have a dear friend, Leonard Isidor, who was shot and killed outside his home just before I visited the last time. There was one time I saw a dead body with caution tape around it, laying uncovered with his legs sticking out into the main road, just outside of the airport. There was a time that we had guns drawn at us at the gate to get out of the warehouse district when our car was full of bags of rice and beans we had just bought. Our friend Leonard saw the gun and got us away with his quick thinking. There are plenty of other crazy stories, but I also have many wonderful memories. I have been to many Haitian weddings, met awesome people and friends, and seen the love that Haitians have for God and for each other.
