I Traveled To Puerto Rico Alone (Staying At A Vegan Friendly Hotel & More)

[@Djlove737]

your interactions with everyone are so wholesome

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Very pleasant!

[@loisneish4261]

Love how real Roberto is about learning and speaking Spanish!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you!

[@loisneish4261]

Love your videos! Such a genuine person!

[@cherokee7411]

I seldom watch AD's because they are annoying, however for you Berto, I got you. It's the transparency for me. Much respect. I also traveled to Puerto Rico by myself several years ago, and I loved it. I love PR especially Old San Juan. Can't wait to go back to explore more.

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

I totally understand that! I appreciate your willingness to do so and support! Yea, Old San Juan is a wonderful place.

This is amazing! I’m vegan and I’m Puerto Rican but I’ve never been. Always say I’m gonna go for my birthday, but this is really inspiring me to go next year, I just don’t want to go alone lol. I want to go zip lining there as well.

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

You gotta make it there on day! I’m sure you’ll have a great time :)

[@Katlady001]

I can’t believe that you don’t have anyone to go with. It would appear that you would have many good friends. I understand the struggle though because I am a Black female with no travel Buddies either.

[@donnam2684]

Hurray! The vegan travel series has begun!!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

😁

[@jenmckinney7887]

I don’t think I ever realized your name is Roberto Clemente, a famous name in my city of Pittsburgh!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Yup! :)

[@yvlani]

Thank you Berto, for the great tour of your trip, so far. Everything looks great & folks were very friendly! . Love your random encounter with someone who once resided in your current neighborhood & they gave your cold, refreshing water! Enjoyed seeing the beach 🏝 Enjoy your trip 🛴🌾🍃🌸🍃🌴🍃🌸🍃🌾Namaste💜

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you so much! It was a great experience and part 2 is coming soon!

*Must watch ADs for Berto* me holding my fingers back 😂

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

🤣 thank you!

[@angelac293]

My mom is from 🇲🇽 when we go everyone also says ‘buen aprovecho’ she told me it is a custom to do that and it is rude to not tell ppl to enjoy their food. I’m assuming most Spanish speaking countries do this :) hopefully I can go to 🇵🇷 soon!

[@farahreynoso1940]

We do.

[@benajminpadilla6360]

It is a welcome greeting and wish. However, it is not considered rude to not say "Buen Provecho". Although, again....it is welcomed.

[@melissarose6328]

I got u - watched ads all the way thru!! great vid !!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

I appreciate it!

[@theetravelhippie]

the hotel is adorable

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Truly!

[@l.2847]

I’m from PR and vegan as well and I must say, your pronunciation in Spanish was very good! 😊👏🏽

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you! I’ve had some years of learning, but never put in the time to speak much

[@nickbrittin7871]

Two things: I loved your response to that brownie. You know it's good when you gotta take a second bite before commenting on it. :) Second, I really like how you appreciate the vintage aspects of your room. You seem to have a respect for honest, old school architecture and beauty. My wife and I are vegetarians, so your video is super helpful.

[@shireenriazikermani1894]

So happy you are finding vegan options around and breaking the language barrier!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you!

[@iamladyblack1188]

OMG, we were just there!!! We stayed in Ocean Park too!!! It was AWESOME!!! And yes! The ppl are AMAZING!!!! As was the food!!!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Yes! It was great!!

[@shinaevans1549]

Hi how long did you stay? Where all did you eat for vegan?

[@jaeblackbird3700]

Was just thinking about what it would be like to travel to Puerto Rico! And I’m sure everyone there appreciates your attempts at speaking Espanol! Better to try than not, even if you feel uncomfortable, right? :) Thanks for sharing!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Agreed!

[@Blurggg]

You should make a list of common words and phrases and have it handy with you when traveling and interacting with non English speaking people. That way you don't feel nervous or on the spot having to remember the word for milk or meat. Less anxiety when you're a little prepared. :)

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you!

[@donnam2684]

I know what you mean about speaking Spanish. I really need to get over my self consciousness and do better. It's important!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Definitely! Just gotta learn through practice no matter how bad it sounds lol

[@inkeater]

Dude the fact that you try is what matters most when speaking Spanish my bf is Irish American and he learned Spanish just to speak to my abuelita bc he loved her food and he learned over 13 years just to talk to her. And it’s my fave thing bout him bc now since abuelita has passed he gets to use it in his customer service job and all the people he encounters tho he doesn’t speak it fluently they love and appreciate that he tries. Can’t wait to see more and damn that food. Love this episode berto always appreciate your content. Stay awesome ✌️❤️ also so jelly of all the passion fruit things 😍

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you for sharing that and for the support! ❤️

I tell tourist all the time in order to get the full effect in someone else’s culture or country, you have to go with the locals. Forget all the tourist popular spots! The locals will show you the purest way. New subscriber from Seattle 📍🇵🇷 be safe my Puerto Rican brother!

I love this! I’m also Puerto Rican (half) and vegan, but have yet to visit, but seeing this really makes me wanna go!!Thanks for sharing this and goodluck with the spanish learning journey, I barely speak any either, but want to learn as well:)

[@maimaz2910]

So travel blogs and scenery mixed with culture is so your thing dude! This video captures you artistic ability so well. And how wholesome is that look on your face when you experience new cultures and surroundings! Travel, culture and vegan food and not a common trio and I think you would do it such justice on your platform! Travel and food. Travel and culture. Travel and vegan food. But rarely all 3! Wish you so much success!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you so much! Trying to keep a balance, so it’s a good experience for everyone including myself. I appreciate it!

I watched this and smiled so much. Fun fact I stayed in the exact room in October of 2020 and in two weeks I’ll be calling Puerto Rico home. Your video made me that much more excited. ❤️

Great video Berto. I've never been to PR so I really enjoyed seeing your footage. Don't trip on the negative comments because at least your trying to get better at speaking Spanish.

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you! Not tripping, just a part of the process. I appreciate it!

[@tamcon72]

I've learned that a run-down neighborhood is not necessarily a bad neighborhood. It's good that you were willing to explore and that you had such positive experiences in doing so. This looks like a wonderful, friendly, interesting place to visit. ThanksForPosting!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

I appreciate that! I love to hear the feedback especially with these new adventures, so thank you!

[@ginacastle2407]

Ok, this is the kind of video I am sooo soo into- seeing people taking in the local vibes and not just doing the typical touristy stuff. The best experiences are going off the beaten path and just exploring and eating at local stands. I can’t stand seeing people just follow other IG trendy must see’s, just to show you were there. Yes, to cat footage, and hearing you speak Spanish. I agree that you have to keep trying even if it obvious you aren’t a perfect Spanish speaker. Try to starting with all the basics, always say these in Spanish, not English. “Soy vegano, gracias, buen provecho (to others), soy de Brooklyn, mi llamo Roberto, permiso, donde es el bano, la cuenta por favor, cuanto questa..” Looking forward to seeing you in Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala! I think this travel series may be your calling!

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Thank you! More to come for sure!

[@mikelugo8983]

i love that u try.

SUCH a fun adventure! I have traveled alone to explore a city/area only once and I must say, I enjoyed it a lot but sharing experiences with people seems so much nicer to me! Also, I have never been to America (neither north nor south) so this is really interesting to watch not only from the entertainment point of view but also in terms of culture! . Anyways, thank you for sharing this with us! Cannot wait for more to come! Lots and lots of love Berto! Stay safe and have a great week ahead!

I'm in Puerto Rico now, I also don't have strong spanish. It's all practice practice. Children learn languages well because they have no shame in their mistakes. We must make mistakes to learn! You should def come to the west side and the Rincon area...it's a lot of fun and very lively, yet more chill and touristy than the San Juan area. Amazing farmers markets & nightlife. However, my fam lives in the hilly areas of the country side. Very serene.

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Love it! I definitely want to go to the west side. Next time I’m gonna need to rent a car because there were many places that I wanted to go!

Great video! Thanks for sharing your travels. My husband and I were traveling through Europe a couple of years ago and we had the same experience with restuarant hours being all over the place, especially for vegan restaurants. We'd google a place and walk/drive there only to find out it was closed even though Google said it was open for business lol. Can't wait to visit PR. San Juan seems amazing and everyone seems so nice ❤

Yea, it’s tough lol had a great time!

I have always wanted to visit Puerto Rico; it just looks so beautiful. Now I just need to decide when I am going. I've been trying to learns Spanish for 30 years, lol.

I love to travel and Puerto Rico is on my list. My favourite way to get around is on foot as well. I feel like I get to see all the little thing that you would otherwise miss. I’m Canadian and everything here is far apart, so when I get to a smaller country, it is such a joy to find a city like Rome, for instance that is totally compact and walkable. Do you ever use an app called Happy Cow? Have a wonderful trip, and I will definitely watch all the ads for you. Peace out.

I want to go to PR again! I went with my bf before we went vegan. We mainly stayed in San Juan and we went to old San Juan for one day. But funny part of our day in old San Juan was that I saw a cute, colorful little area down by the beach and I was like omg we should go over there and check it out. We get down there and there was a dude tryna sell us some green but I don’t speak Spanish so I had no idea. I was super oblivious and was taking pictures of the houses and the stray cats. Turns out we weren’t even supposed to be down there and my bfs family and even the people we rented from told us AFTER we went. And then one day we tried to get into the rainforest but we missed all the tours and didn’t have a car. We started walking down a road with a few houses. Out of no where we see one big ass dog standing there and it starts running towards us. I’m a huge dog person but I thought we was about to get eaten. But it just wanted some love. Then MORE DOGS start running out of this house at us! They definitely knew we were dog people LOL

[@whatsgoodberto5426]

Omg 😂 I’m not sure if I would’ve caught that either.

And the dog 🤣 I saw plenty of cats
