[@ciarad.8417]

Went to Poland a few years ago with my mom; one of the best experiences of my life. The people there were unsurprisingly curios lol there’s little to no people of color but I did see some while I was there. I met some adorable and extremely curious polish school kids in the salt mines. I felt safer and more relaxed in Krakow than in my home state. The clean streets everyday was something I wasn’t used to especially being from NY.

[@borzmir9326]

they are happy cuz there is not much multi culti

[@sucram1018]

You mean multi-ethnic? Being of a different race doesn't inherently mean you come from a different culture. Millions of black people are born and raised in France, speak French, have been part of French society, and know everything French. There's no multiculturalism in that case. Only multi-ethnic.

[@annettebist]

Hey I want to tell you something, I just found your channel 2 days ago and watched your majority of videos and really enjoyed watching them.The reason why he is able to CATCH IYAH'S PRANKS easily (reference:SCANDALOUS OUTFIT VIDEO) is because HE IS A HSP or highly sensitive person which is a rare PERSONALITY TYPE(20% found in a species) and I can tell this for sure because I am a HSP too and I can relate with his reactions, behavior and way of observing the world ,environment and stimuli in great depth and detail,taking out the all the mini and micro details from surroundings e.g. 1.the way he described how Iyah is while going outside in the SCANDALOUS OUTFIT VIDEO at 06:46 2.Being shy on camera 3.Sweet and gentle but gets into argument when you have got no logic in your opinion (Judges scientifically) but angry only for a while and then comes down 4.Pure commitment to your loved one 5.When being on his own like playing games ,he won't listen to anyone and can't be distracted easily . The bond Raefel shares with Iyah is the same which I share with my Mom(not to be misunderstood, I am a girl ,Mother-Daughter Relationship).My Mom's like Iyah I am like Raefel(in personality terms) Lots of love to you guys from INDIA🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

[@ragnargrabson1287]

I totally agree with Rafał - Iyah is a beautiful woman indeed and equally charming with an amazing smile. She is also an American and it makes her special too because Poles generally like Americans.
