How do you make money in Haiti? What do you do for work? Did you have it set up before you moved? How would you recommend people make their money in a way that doesn't take an opportunity from a Haitian, but rather adds to the development of the community/nation?

Are there certain things to do to ensure your safety with all of the unrest that takes place? What do you do for work in Haiti if you don’t mind sharing? Have you partnered with any U.S. based organizations like USAID or the embassy with your development background? What was your Creole proficiency when you first moved vs now? Thank you cause I know that’s not even half the questions I have 😂

Just found that I’m part Haitian Creole… my grand father was from Haiti but unfortunately this information wasn’t given until he’s gone so much of the culture wasn’t passed down and entire family just walking around saying they’re just black… learning this about my bloodline made me find understanding of myself tho all of my interest talents and religious/spiritual views resonates that of the Haitian Culture and made me no longer feel weird or random lol I thank my ancestors for leading me to the truth of who I am… I look forward to learning more and restarting the passing of culture and history to my children to pass to theirs and most of all feeling that “I’m home” feeling you spoke of… I’ve recently moved from Missouri to Florida and I feel like I’m getting closer to that feeling the more I closer to the water… and it all makes sense…. I also have Italian and Irish blood from my moms side still have to learn of her fathers side as she wasn’t raised with him but as I said before I resonate more so with my Haitian roots… I’m just proud of all of who I am and thanks again for sharing 💙🌴🇭🇹

You see this is exactly why I want to go! I am older now and soo upset that I dont have a sense of tradition or understanding of my roots. From a young age I was told if I dont behave they'll send me to Haiti and so I associated it with punishment. I have been solo traveling and realize how much I have lost not being connected after seeing other cultures so proud and having all these traditions. I have fallen in love with just researching the history and watching videos on youtube of Haiti in the 40s, 60s etc. I can't wait to go I dont know how or when but Im going and going to educate my future children of my country.

@Tai J... The message is "Always take your children with you" as Ruth's parents did. The best gift you could give them is "Summer Vacation" not in Port-au-Prince. Port-au-Prince is not Haiti as some pretend. It's only 20% of the territory. Cap-Haitien (the old capital) and its surrounding provinces have the safest environment right now. I left 40 yrs ago & I think now is the time to go back and reconnect with the land. I hope the professionals could go en masse to rebuild this heroic nation.

I understand exactly how you felt. I was born 56 years ago and my father was Guyanese at 6 yes old my dad took me to his homeland, and it became my home, not the UK where I was born.. It set the foundation of my spirit to embrace my dads dream of going to retire and die in his home of his birth. My mother was a Jamaican (love Jamaica and it is also my home). My father instilled in me, that I was multi cultured and the UK is where I was born, my homeland is diverse. It lovely to see so many of your era embracing and moving to their parents homeland. Blessings to you. I looked at your channel via Miss Jemmia.

Hi Rutty! I really enjoyed your video! Below are my questions: 1. What was your move to Haiti like? What did it entail? (i.e., apartment hunting, job hunting, etc.) 2. What were some challenges/difficulties? 3. What are the pros regarding the move? 4. What would your advice be to someone who’s interested in moving back to Haiti but doesn’t know where to start? 5. How did you meet your husband? (any cute couples video would be 👌🏾but if you want to keep your relationship separate from your KZfaq channel, I completely understand. I’m finishing my last year of law school and I’m just trying to figure out how I can give back to Haiti…not just financially but substantially. I want to move to Haiti and actually do the work necessary to advance the nation as a whole. Sorry for the lengthy post 🤔

Violence/political issues happen not only in Haiti but everywhere everyday but however the difference for ex: the US have many resources/structure that help individuals with crime that take action etc (not saying it 100% the best) but Haiti does have it but not to that degree which makes it a bit hard to come back and stay...

That land and the people are amazing. Ayiti is such a magnet. The reason we hear so much about crime in Ayiti nowadsys is due to the fact that once upon a time it was like a paradise and crime was nonexistent. I always tell people to not believe the hype! Growing up before moving to Jersey as a teenager, no one used to close their doors and gates when leaving for school and the local market. So go figure....

Hi Mss Rutty My brother earned a Ph.D in Business Administration and is preparing young haitian minds in Haïti for a prosperous and better future. I praise the courage and the risk you have been taken, leaving behind the *country of milk and honey, to go back to Haïti with the sole intent to contribute, through conjugating efforts, in the struggle of making Haïti a better place for us and for the new generation. I know to reach this noble cause is far from easy, because of those corrupt self-centered politicians in common accord with the cupid olligachts, motivated by sordid gains, who are taking the country to the wrong direction, but as for you, a true daughter of our ancestors, whom vision for all of us is to carry on higher the torch of liberty and freedom before all nations, specially those oppressors who still now barricade our roads leading to success. I am proud of your great haitian spirit. I wish more Haitians, like yourself, who love Haïti, the land of true democracy and freedom, don't allow this moment of tribulations take away the great dream de FAIRE D' HAITI ENCORE LA PERLE DES ANTILLES, PREMIERE REPUBLIQUE NOIRE LIBRE.

My heart it so happy but so heavy watching your videos. I’m so happy you made the decision and shared it with us. I cry so often when I think about my country. I moved to the US at 11 but used to go back every summer until maybe 9 years ago or so. My mom and grandma still lived there until a couple of years ago. My childhood, my home is in Fontamara. But if you know what’s going on in that region of PaP you’ll know why we can’t go back. I feel like I’ve been exiled from my home and that is so painful. I imagine bandits going through my family home (since they took over the region and all of our neighbors and us have been forced to leave our homes) and just destroying everything. Just writing this is making me cry again. Petro Caraibe, Jovenel’s assassination, another earthquake, I mean what else are you gonna throw at us God? I miss my country, I hate the insecurity, I hate what the US has done, what France has done, what these social elites in Haiti have done. I’m just so tired of it all. We deserve better. I went to do a project abroad in Uganda in 2018 and I remember thinking the whole time…this looks like my country, why am I here, why am I not in Haiti doing a project there, why am I not with my people?? I went all the way across the world to help people instead of right there to Haiti to help my own. I’m a public health veterinarian, I remember being set on helping to reestablish the veterinary profession in Haiti. I visited all the primary veterinarians in PaP, my uncle included. Now I don’t know what’s going on with my plan. It all just…stopped. I want to connect with people, I want to do something. Despite having no home there right now, and the insecurity. I want to start somewhere. Thank you for helping me get this out and find a little determination I had lost to try again to get involved and do my part. I hope I can connect with other Haitians in the US and can make something happen finally.

It's breath of fresh air to listen to your story about Haiti. Just like I grew up in America but now I leave in Haiti. Sometime it's hard when Im trying to explain to them on their ways of thinking about changes they have to start with the self discipline. For this country to change it has to start with the people not the government. They have to understand that have the power to initiate those changes. I love and appreciate you for your passion. More blessings to you. Bless

I praise you for your love, determination and your desire to bring your contribution and expertise to Haiti, a country that we love in spite of all the negative things and stereotypes associated with our country. Just like some African countries such as Ouwanda, Ghana, Kenya and others are becoming a role model for underdeveloped countries such as Haiti. I believe we can make a difference by following their steps. It's time to count on ourselves not to others to help us getting out of the under developed country or the poorest country in the hemisphere. All we need is the determination, will and a vision. One of my teachers asked me why don't you haitian students as smart as you are go back to change Haiti. My answer was they will not give us a chance to do so, they even call us diaspo as if we are no longer haitians. Good luck my dear and be blessed❤️💙💛🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹

This, I love this video! Thank you for sharing. Both of my parents are from Haiti (I’m from The Bahamas) but besides my close family and friends my experiences as a Haitian has always been limited. The only time I went there was as a baby. For different reasons, including the conditions of the economic and political state of Haiti, I’ve been discouraged to go when I became old enough to do so (currently 22). through the stories my family told, I fell is love. While everyone obsessed over traveling to the US, Dubai or the Maldives, it was Haiti for me. Gratefully I can speak (not 100% fluent), read and understand Haitian Creole but I want more you know. I have dreams of temporarily living in Haiti and when I do I want to offer help as well. Haiti won’t get better if everyone’s leaving and not banding together to build up the country. It’s such a beautiful country with so much potential. I want my children to be able to experience and enjoy it as well. I can’t wait to go 🤍, if I wasn’t currently pregnant I would’ve been there enjoying my summer!

I was taken out of Haiti as a child and I still go back. I don’t give a hoot. We have similar thoughts and experience. I still stay close to most and all family. I love the mountains and hiking to see family. I’ve been to a few countries and Haiti is my favorite for environment and culture. Ayibobo!

I salute your courage! That’s inspiring me. If you could do that, many of us can do it as well. I am fed up with the prevention that we are all living lavishly which is contrary to the US reality. I want to simplify my lifestyle and live modestly. Some places in Haiti can be suitable for that peaceful modest lifestyle which can lead to a longevity. Housing in the big cities is not affordable and the gas price is escalated. In fact, there is insufficient energy left to work two jobs to pay bills. I guess it’s time to go back to the island and contribute to the development of human capital.

Hi Rutty B., I am so proud of you for loving Haiti-Hayti deeply. I also complimented your Dad for teaching you about the history and culture of Hayti.I am also a lover of my country, all my desire is to go back to my hometown Les Cayes that I left at the age of sixteen to pursue my studies in Port-au-Prince. As you said, no one can’t stopped me from going back to my homeland soon. Thank you for sharing your insights with us. Your determination, your love and your vision will make a great impact on Hayti. I would like to meet you when I arrive, so we can talk about our expertise and how we can work together for the well-being of our beautiful country. May God bless you and yours abundantly!

What a beautiful, inspiring story! I wish you well great lady! May you succeed in you endeavors and be safe! However, I become sad to think that some of us against our wills can’t make such move. While reading the comments I heard the cries of Stephen-Anne D. and it brought tears to my eyes knowing she isn’t the only ones experiencing such tragedies. Well, let’s keep hope alive! We love Haiti! We miss our Motherland! Maybe the younger generation, the Millenials will take us back to our homeland. We are praying for deliverance. It will come one day! Be of good courage! Go for it!

I just got back after spending the whole of July… I honestly can say the issues is in the heart of the capital . They need to create more Street markets like marche Solomon for the merchants/street vendors. It would reduce traffic and lessen the trash on the streets. Furthermore, the bridge President Martelly built very good idea! The roads need to be constructed ( paved - cemented). I was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY but Haitian blood runs through my veins… My children enjoyed they visit as well! Thank you for giving it a positive light… Haiti so terrible yet the planes are booked everyday… it’s a mystical place with lots of culture , love….
