      Our island only seems a paradise for the rich and for the rich colonizers that come here. The locals cant find an affordable home to live in within the medium or lower incomes.
      They say that we live out thanks to tourism but the locals never feel like that a direct advantage in any context.

      @@N40AX tienes razón. Para mejorar nuestras vidas mejor nos ponemos a trabajar y dejamos de quejarnos en CZcams como un par de pringaos. Colonizadores dice, pónganse a trabajar haga favor, que yo y mi familia también vivimos de los que vienen de fuera. Como pa que te pongas a espantar tu a la gente ahora.

    Congratulations! An absolutely outstanding video, both technically and for it's very thorough and varied content. By far the best I have ever seen! My only comment might be your almost exclusive emphasis on socialising with other nomads. As a resident here for many years, one of the single most attractive features of living here, apart from many of the highlights you touched upon, is how warm, friendly and welcoming the islanders are. Other than that, an excellent summary of life here. Thank you for making and sharing.

Bueno es como en todos sitios , ahora si tu idea es venir y encontrar trabajo olvídate a no ser que tengas un enchufe , se te olvidó enseñar los barrios del polígono de San Cristóbal , jinamar , el risco de San Nicolás , las rehoyas o el poligono cruz de piedra ✌️
