You did good!I'm a 60 year old black male and I just started traveling solo 5 years ago,so it's never too late for the older crowd.Thanks.....

She's beautiful

I'm Brazilian, I'm half black, I lived in Europe for about 8 years and let me assure black travelers: BRAZIL SHOULD NOT BE ON THAT LIST. I'm not crazy about Paris either. London should be on top of the list.

I agree about Tokyo! I had a great time there. You should try Finland as well!

Tanzania is now on my list along with Ghana for my African continent trip

Woow....TANZANIA.its great to see my country on the list.

First of all: I love your blog and I'm totally addicted to reading it! I'm Brazilian and I got a bit shocked when I saw BR in your list of best places for black travellers. Brazil is a very racist country for afro-brazlians... We do have a reputation of being really welcoming for tourist. When the Haitins migrated to Brazil after the earthquake they were so poorly welcomed by the population (and still are) that broke their illusion of ''the nice Brazilian''. Interesting debate that. I love your blog.

Awesome! You were short, yet still very detailed in explaining the reasons why you chose those top 5 places for African Americans to visit. You did brilliant and articulate yourself well.

I lived in Brazil and had an amazing experience. I can see how afro-Brazilians are not treated the same, but as an American I didn't have any issues. Costa Rica is awesome as well.

Wow this guy's voice sounds like Tavis Smiley.

I'm a teacher from Detroit, Michigan. I just starting traveling during my time teaching Spain. I hope for my KZfaq channel and travel blog to be as inspiring as yours. You are a great role model to brown female travelers everywhere!!

She’s wonderful young lady But you forget Rwanda Somalia Kenya

I have been to 3 of the countries you mentioned. Dubai/Abu Dabi with the Navy and I lived in Japan for 10 years and loved it. I am seriously considering living in a country outside of the U.S. but japan is too expensive.

Black men get treated terribly in a lot of countries.

if your travelling to the north of lreland stay on the catholic side, many of our murals are deciated to the african american struggle for civil rights with our own, but its really cold so bring 50 coats lol

*look at God! What a true inspiration. Thanks so much Oneika for sharing!*

The journalist was condescending towards African Americans throughout the discussion, his little comments about learning common phrases and getting a visa is unnecessary. Also he said get a passport, a passport is nothing without a visa. If he don't sit his pretentious self down, if you have the money you travel, if don't have the money you don't go. It's not complicated.

Nice, I’ve actually only been traveling for two years now. I have been to a lot of places but I think my friend is trying to get us killed on this next trip we’re about to go on next year if this pandemic lifts before March 2021. This fool has booked us a freaking trip to Dublin, Ireland 🇮🇪 Now as a black man, is that not a suicide mission, or what? It’s looking like we’re going to be only two day’s there and then leaving for Rome for another 5-6 days. Pray for me y’all, because not too sure about Dublin.

I will have to check her blog out I have been traveling for about 9 years as a leisure soloist traveler. I don't do group travel too well as I like to go off the grid but I do encourage people to NOT JUST do the norm. Live life and I always felt safe and I am just as conscious to my surroundings as I am in America cuz we are just as savages to what we "deem" to be "terrorist" shit I seen them daily on the street and at work 😕.

Spain and the Netherlands were comfortable places to visit in my experience. Thanks for sharing this list. I love traveling and learning languages!!

Why would anyone dislike this video? There is nothing negative about it. Some reactions are perplexing!!!

I had to stop watching after seeing Brazil. Why would you want to take me back to 1960s USA?

I want to go brazil, tazania and toyko!!

Been travelin Solo, love it.

Great video

Check out Malaysia. Malaysian & Indian have much respect for us black American

And Haïti. ? it's more beautifull island in the world .

to foreignors reading this cross U.S 🌎 off your list

So far for the European countries: You should visit Portugal and Spain also (Barcelona and Madrid) And Cuba

South Africa is amazing too! Cape Town is so scenic. So much history of Mandela there. We also did a safari at Kruger. Check out our travel documentary. Love to see our people traveling! 🙌🏾

Very informative thank you

I would like to go to South Africa it has the most black millionaires, it has a pretty decent government and freedom for its people and it's Erica's largest economy

What about west Africa, in general? The mother land. You can experience the authentic culture if reconnection is what you desire.

I have been to Paris and Dubai. Paris is dirty but beautiful. Both places I was treated very well and really enjoyed myself. I will personally suggest South Korea, Canada and Germany. Good food and very nice people.

Paris is a beautiful city culture, art, architecture, food. I also recommend enchanting Fes Morocco, Amsterdam, Madrid (Delicious Tapas). Had a bad experience in Rome but the city itself is awe inspiring, monumental ancient roman structures. Travel Fill your live with memorable experiences...Just get a cheap Flight and Go!

Congratulations!!! You did a great job!

Thank you. Loved it

Tanzania...🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿

Japanese also wear dreadlocks and travel to Jamaica

Great video sis. I've been many places except for Africa. I want to move out of the usa. Any suggestions about a great location for a african american to move too?

Dubai still follows elements of Sharia law. Look up the laws of the land concerning alcohol, traveling with controlled prescription medications and even spending a night with the opposite sex who you are not married to. Bonus, also look up what happens if you get rapped and you end up reporting it to authorities. I just don't want anyone to get caught up in any legal issues.

So sad this video even has to be made.

The commentator sounded a little jealous. SO WHAT ABOUT JAPAN....it was like he was rushing her thru the interview....and one upping her. Like..yea y'all better learn how to say hello and thank you...i mean dude we understand language.

OUR RIGHTEOUS WAY OF COMMUNICATING IS NOT ARROGANCE AND ILLEGETATE!

yay! A video from you. I need to see you more! Great video.

I am so jealous now.

That was great 😄

Great job! Can you please tell me your sign?

Your a doll face!... This was informative for me. I plan to start vlogging my travels as well. I did notice that there aren't many black travel vloggers and the ones that I do see, don't have too many views. I wonder why this is. I'm not too concerned with that mishap since I plan to just do it for my own entertainment and share the experience with others. One more thing, great job on your interview! Question....in order to get opportunities such as interviews, sponsorships, etc...do you have to reach out to them or do they contact you?

How did you go about preparing for your trip? I have a passport going to waste.

great interview!!!

Did you travel by yourself or did you go with a group? My uncle told me that I needed to do some traveling, because I'm growing a tech company and I'm very stressed. So I set aside 6 weeks to travel outside the United States.

So pleased that you are travelling. However,how could you not have London on the list?Best place in Europe for non whites to visit.Culture,food,Naomi Campbell,Anthony Joshua,Lewis Hamilton(almost),Black British Londoners. You didn’t mention anything about Black French people,there’s loads. No mention of visiting Canada,easy for a visit, nearby and safe.Caribbean islands,especially Barbados,Jamaica. Rwanda is a much better choice for Black Africa,clean safe and affordable. My credentials? 62 year old Black British,speak 5 languages, multiple visits overseas since 1972,high end hotels to park benches,Afro down to buzz cuts. Please do yourselves a favour, get a passport,insurance and choose a destination and enjoy. Btw Dubai is full of Z-list British celebrities.

I am not sure if I agree with you on Paris. I work in the traveling industry and been to Paris quite a few times over the years and still traveling there. And when I look outside of tunnel vision and look at how the treat Africans and Muslims, I was far from having the same outlook as you. I went with a coworker to a club there we were both black and his friend was Muslim and we were both let in, his Muslim friend was not without explanation. I guess at that point I could say they love me so they must love blacks? If you discriminate against one you will discriminate against all. Also have not paid attention lately but look at all the back artists videos, all their leading ladies are white?! Please look through the eyes of others to make a fair judgment on racism

which place should I visit ireland or scotland. which place would be great to visit at end of oct.

i love it

polished

Tokyo ? Really. Like the most xenophobic cultures of all time.

“Brazilian and African culture are one in the same” Aww hell no, if you lived there you’d see.

The interviewer talks more than you. Very annoying 🙄

I was a tither for years and then stopped for many many years. Test God Promises through Tithing and Offering. Im going to Trust God . I dont care if I have $.50 cent or 5million. This country can be turned around through Obedience to God in areas where we turned astray. The enemy doesnt (the True enemy Satan to God the Father, the Holy Spirit and the Lord Jesus Christ ) . God will unlock doors and areas . This World isnt ready for that

PEOPLE THAT ARE BORN IN THE USA THAT ARE OF JAMAICAN PARENTAGE ARE JAMAICAN AMERICAN

Really Paris? I've been watching a documentary that was explaing the mistreatment of Black people in Paris France.

This her opinion don't be deluded

Awesome Get those passports people 🇫🇷🇪🇸🇮🇹🇷🇺🇬🇧

Hello Obeika, why not any Countries in Africa or Mid-East?

have you been to ireland or scotland. trying to decide

If her family is West Indian, how is she is said to be African American. My family line came over on the first slave ships. Which where not all Africans. Some where Isrealites and some where Arab. If I was to go to West Indeans, I will still be called African American. Likewise, other races of people who come to American do not transplant into the cultrue to loose their origin of ethnisity. Except where black people from other cultrues are not clearly defind as to their ethnisity as it defferentiates Black Americans. Who are the true Black Americans. Most of all, where are they gone. It is important to know. For the sake of humanity, the World needs to know. You would not want to be intertaining what you thought was a harmless, non-threatening sect, and find out too late, that it is not the case.

Yeeee nej no!!!

This is stupid.. Why just you travel whatever place in the world, learn from good and bad experiences, and stop preventing yourself from knowing new things just because of race, you should change that mindset

Again!!!! Wrong!!! I traveled to both Dubai and Abu Dhabi alone and love both places Abu Dhabi a bit more because less people and tourists but I would not exactly tell black people to run there, walk maybe but definitely go and not fall under the false belief that is put in our heads in America but with that said, they thought I was probably there for prostitution because I was black and traveling alone even though I dress nothing like one but because apparently a lot of Africans go there for prostitution., they see me as black and think I am from Africa as well. I felt a little less than because my ass spent years in school to pursue 4 degrees and to be judge that way. I do not think the same would be if I was white and keep in mind I was back at my hotel at 7 each night because I do not drink or party so my actions did not align either but again loooove both places and would recommend everyone going. Also I had no problem going through immigration there, so I do not think they thought I was going there for service exchange 😄 better treatment than I often have coming though immigration in the country I live in. So my heading would be “ being punished while traveling black and alone in the Middle East”😊

Good video but u kno african Americans don't have funds to travel like that come on now
