Thank you so much for visiting and showing our beautiful town to the world. I grow up, studied and played on those street. The people there have always been the same, no matter where are you from, they tried to make you feel at home. The town have changed a little with time. Barranquitas was a very active town back then when I was growing up. Students from the elementary school, middle and high school playing and hanging around the plaza eating at the cafeterias en el pueblo and apestillao en la plaza😃. The town is basically dead compared to over 20 years ago when everything was alive. When the mega stores came in all the small business in el pueblo started to shut down. People decide to support those mega stores instead of paying a little more to support our local business. What I love from Barranquitas is the hospitable people, the good food and beautiful women all over. 🙏😀💪

I'm glad that you liked the video. I was debating with myself about cutting some of the video to make it shorter but, I figured, I leave it all in there. I knew someone would appreciate it. 🙂 BTW, I agree with you on the women. I'm single so I'm going to use every excuse I can to go back. :-)

Just so you know: Every town in the island is built in the Spanish style with a plaza in the center, a Catholic Church, and the alcaldía (mayor's office/city hall). All towns are like that due to the Spanish heritage.

Hello hope all is well Luis Munoz Rivera was the father of Luis Munoz Marin who became governor of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. Really nice town but the stairs could kill someone 😅

Yeah, those hills are pretty intense. It really gives the town it's personality. (notice people are skinnier there). I can't help to notice that the town is so clean. Over here in Bayamon there's a culture of people who like to throw garbage on the side of peoples homes out of spite. I'm so glad that's not the case over there.

LMM, the first elected by the people governor of the island. The rest were appointed by the USA. LMM decided to make PR a commonwealth of the USA rather than an independent republic.

I've been learning a lot over the past couple of years. The changes from Spanish rule to USA rule have given us in PR a very interesting legal system. I can't say it's all bad but it's weird. ... and the law, It's kind of hard to explain in one comment but it's like a mutant of Spanish law with US law kind of patched all around it. On top of the weirdness, the whole political thing. There's pressure from the outside as well as from the people. It's hard to explain but really, Puerto Rican people should really support their government. Our politicians have to Bargain with some really sharp US people. lol, too much for a comment, sorry about that. Have a good day. :-)

It sounds like you need to climb those steps once every other day for 6 months, then once a day for the rest of your life.

Lol, every few weeks I keep thinking of going back there. I can't explain it, it's old but... It's still very nice town to visit.
