Beer and soccer, two things Brits and Latinos love!⚽️🍻
My folks are from Hidalgo, Mexico and I am 18% Co blood-lines
Calling football football 🐴🤝🐴
Unless you’re from Texas. Then it’s beer and Boxing for Latinos
@notproductiveproductions3504 . British like boxing too.
@@rockyracoon3233 then why us other countries associate them with KICKboxing?
I am from Brazil. Unfortunately it's not just the Brits, foreigners in general when talking about Latin America remember violence, drugs and corrupt politicians...😢😢😢
Obviously we are much more than that. We are from one of the most beautiful parts of the world. Our natural landscapes are stunning. Latin America's biodiversity is off the charts.
We are the result of the mixture of different people, which gives us a unique cultural richness and diversity. Our food is delicious. There is no country in Latin America that has bad food. Our cinema is vibrant. We have great music and many of the most creative writers and artists are from Latin America.
My wife is latina form peru been to together just under 6 years now , to be fair she was the first South American i ever meet in the UK i knew she was special hence why i got that ring on her finger , i love her culture to very family driven and the food is great . Well i hope the latinas and latinos that have moved to the UK feel welcome here. Lol the last girl you was talking to as soon as she mention time keeping i thought of my wife her time keeping is rubbish , with me being in the army it drives me nuts lol.
ahah cheers bro! 🍺
You're smart for marrying a girl from there. I'm Mexican and if I ever tie the knot it will be with a traditional Latina girl who acts old fashioned. I don't care how sexist I sound but I want a woman who can cook, clean and act like a lady.
Thanks for making one for Latinos
proud english latina here and i can say growing up en londres there was a lot of us. americans never realise we have a strong community in the uk, particularly in south london. only issue is its all brazilian, dominicanos & colombianos but there’s barely any other latinos incl my people (shout out to my nicaragüenses!). loved the video!
Ayyy we everywhere!
I'm half Boricua and Dominican from nyc and I had no idea there were Dominicans over there. That's crazy lol. But I am aware of the large Colombian and Ecuadorian communities over there. Much love from the states to the English latinos and everyone 🇺🇸 🤝 🇬🇧
Great video. Very good of you to share the stories of the latin community which is rarely known in this country.
Hi, representing Miami here. Europeans come and are shocked that 70% of the people are Latinos. We speak English and Spanish. Some of us, like me, have lived 100 years in the US, but I lived 9 years in Ecuador. My father is Cuban. I speak four languages. I am married to a German. Cubans built Miami. I have friends living in the UK, and I have visited London while I was living in Switzerland.
Cubans did not build Miami lol it was already there when mass immigration started there
I'm very proud of my dear compatriots. Over all the Mexican woman who's spreading happiness all around ❤
Thanks it is interesting to learn about Latino ppl ❤
Awesome interview! Lots of different latinos here 👏🏼
Thanks Ryan appreciate it! :) yes i was surprised there are a lot of latinos here, not the case in Korea?
@@ArnaudFromFrance not too many latinos or foreigners in general, but surprisingly many French tourists/students
As a Mexican this is Hella funny 😂, Narcos 😅
J'aime bien ce genre de vidéos car je trouve que c'est intéressant d'interviewer des personnes ayant divers cultures . Tu es un bon youtubeur mais par contre j'ignore pourquoi t'as pas assez d'abonnés .
Merci Jesse pour votre gentil commentaire :) Hesite pas a sugerer d'idee de video, toujours apprécier!
Great video👍
There's a sizeable population of South Americans in Manchester. This is especially true for Brazilians.
The funny thing is the term LATIN AMERICA was coined by a French guy.
It was the French economist Michel Chevalier who first used the term “Latin America” in the 1850s while traveling the Americas as a way to distinguish what he felt were “Latin” peoples from the “Anglo-Saxon” peoples. This idea helped legitimize French colonial activities in Latin America.
There really isn't a strong amount of evidence of that. There's a lot of debate as to the origin of that word. Including words like "Ladino" and was used during the Spanish empire. That existed way before any french colonization. Regardless, the term is based on actual logic. Lets keep it real, the majority of Latin America is mixed with people of southern europe, so it's not like there isn't actual truth to that. Please stop propagating that this comes as the French as a fact when it's only one of the possibilities(which is pretty unlikely).
But french is more germanic
Mexico is not in South America 😂
Exactly, she was making a joke. Poking fun at the fact people think Mexico when she says South America.
I don’t think she was making a joke but ok whatever floats your boat buddy.
She said she was from Venezuela
You should make a video about “what’s it like being French in the U.K.”, it would be cool to watch
yes good idea, i'll do it thanks! 😉 Speaking in French or English?
@@ArnaudFromFrance -
Thanks and you’re welcome! I’m interested in seeing that video! Speaking in French with English subtitles would be nice
I wonder if there is hispanic/latin-american who were raised in the USA, now in europe. As oppose to the video only interviewed people who are from latin america.
I’m an American girl with Mexican heritage that will be moving there for my bf once we get the spousal visa and passport stuff done
@@Mochicat90s cool
My friend from south Texas moved to the UK to be a with a girl he met online. He's also a brown haired red bearded mechanic. She's scouse I think. I know people who moved to Colorado, Japan, Canada, Germany and Croatia. All from the same small towns. Were everywhere. I really want to travel the world and go to the UK or the Netherlands. Ironically I've met people who moved from Ghana, South Africa, the Philippines, Tennessee, and various latin counties.
@@johnindigo5477based. Im mexican raised in texas, moving to UK to marry a scouser ,
😂
Hey can you make a vlog or interview in Newcastle upon Tyne city because there are lot of international students there
Hi harry, thank you for the idea, i will see how i can make it happen :) are you living there?
@@ArnaudFromFrance nah i am planning to move there in future
I somehow got a Mexican accent I don’t know how
Ajajaja i thought i was the only mexican in UK, people tell me I'm lying all the time
No, no lo eres paisano 😂
These blanket Mexico security statements are annoying. I’m sure there are areas in London she wouldn’t walk alone at night.
Absolutely when I go to London with my husband he always says be careful with your bag your phone 😮 the Romanians are dangerous 😮not only them obviously. And he tell me where we shouldn't to go.
im not mexican but my gf is and when we were in her home city we walked late a night and nothing happened - i felt safe there
5:46 my parents are from Michoacan
Same
ill be opening a Michocan ice cream parlor with my Mexican wife soon
I walked at 3 am drunk in Mx 😂 hi I’m alive have not been kidnapped or killed
I don’t believe he really grew Up in mexico 😂
well if you grew up there obviously see it differently
@@devilishirv im not mexican but my gf is and when we were in her home city we walked late a night and nothing happened - i felt safe there
The Colombian guy said , I'm from Colombia, and most people say , Pablo Escobar, drug's, violence , and I totally agree with him, not just Colombia, but all Latinoamérica were more than drugs and violence , but sadly and sure Latinoamérica is not a great place for nobody's especially in poor Ares, and especially for women
Saddest part is that Latin America is the most dangerous region in the world
How come you cant pronounce the letter r?
I'll be in the UK in 2 years :3
Hey Arnaud, I posted this as a reply, but I want you to see this comment so that pdcdesign's comment doesn't mislead you. There's a lot of debate as to the origin of that word Latino. Including words like "Ladino" and was used during the Spanish empire. That word existed way before any efforts of French colonization in Latin America, and highly probably the actual origin of the word. Regardless, the term Latin America is based on actual logic. Let's keep it real, the majority of Latin America are southern Europeans (Latin people) mixed with indigenous (Americans) people, so it's not like there isn't actual truth to that. It's possible that France tried to appeal to the term to gain favor and contributed to some degree to popularizing, but I think the impact overall would have still been very little. The word "Ladino" was used similarly to the word "Mestizo" which I think contributed to the fast acceptance as the acknowledgement of being mixed race is something that is omnipresent in Latin America.
Can you find Puerto Ricans there?
no they are rare in london
After a couple of interviewees, it came to my mind how hard it is for French not to kiss people once living in the UK haha
ahah 100% 😂
Sar
And the British are more than ‘tea’ and ‘the queen’ but we don’t complain when everyone in the world brings it up
We Mexicans are still stuck with drug trafficking, I asume a couple of years more.
Literally never heard anyone bring that shit up around Brits lol. You can hardly compare a string preference for tea with a dirty business that has corrupted Latin America to the core.
So yeah, Latin Americans can complain, because most people who don’t know much associate those things as part of you culture, which is incredibly wrong.
This guy sounds like Ronaldo speaking English 0:44
I love your videos, man. But is it okay to produce a video interviewing English women if they like latino men? Could you please do it,for me and my kind? Please senor france. VIVA MEXICO!!!!!!!
Thanks for the comment! Yes i will ask that question in the next few days :) cheers!
@@ArnaudFromFrance Gracias Señor France
@@josueguzman5414 u like white english women? my gf is mexican
They're not from Latium?!
Para ser justos es culpa de los franceses ya que ellos no llamaron "latinos" antes que los estadounidense (para ellos los hispanos eran considerados blancos hasta los 70/80
Disappointed NONE of them have a British accent
A tually, I noticed that some of them pronounce their English words like the British do. Especially the girl from Colombia.
Womp womp
Ah those from Venezuela. I have never understood your need to say "oh my parents are from Venezuela but my grandparents are from Germany" and in many cases it is not even true. Why aren't Venezuelans proud of their race? In all of Latin America (except Argentina, who believe they are Europeans, literally) there is the concept that if your father is Venezuelan and your mother is Peruvian, but you were born and raised in Venezuela, you are Venezuelan, period. But Venezuelans never seem to be able to be proud of their origins. You always want to bring up a relative from outside the American continent and many times that is not even true.
So both of my parents are Mexican-born, they came to the states young, I was born in the states. I can’t say I’m Mexican? Just because I was born in a certain country means I have to ignore my background and how my parents taught/raised me based on that culture. Seems quite a dumb statement for you to say.
What's it like to be Latino and hunted by a racist group in Scottsdale Arizona 11500 east Cochise Scottsdale Arizona.
What does that mean?
The US isn't as racist as the media likes to make it look
"British food isn't the best" Because he can't get grasshoppers. 🤣
U will eat bugs and love it!
😂😂😂
It’s a novelty snack only eaten in certain places. Mexicans don’t eat that shit as a staple food lol. He was probably trying to be funny. And yeah… Mexican food is easily one of the best in the world. It is renowned for being so, and there are some very good dishes in the UK, but there’s no real comparison.
😂 getting dark at 4:00 pm or before it's depressing :( hahaha don't like it yes shops close f*cking early and some pubs close at midnight wtf? Well it depends where you live because I'm living in a small town haha but pepople is really friendly here in Wales ❤ There's something I don't get it why some people wears shorts in the winter?😂wtf? Love the people, pubs 🍺beer football 💙 ⚽. I know that about being friendly when i see people that I know or they just introduced me I still give a
kiss and a hug 😂 sorry . I must admit that i love the attention because pepole give me that look 👀 wondering where I come from 😮when i talk to.them they are interested about my country my culture lots of questions about The Day of the Dead and some of them they have been there 🇲🇽. I miss my mexican food because it's more tasty and fresh ❤
i feel safe comfy and happy. Thank you UK🇬🇧 you're very kind and nice with me xxxx
Me parece menos extremo vivir al sur del Reino Unido porque es un poquito más lejos del polo. Menos condiciones climáticas extremas jaja Sabes algo?
