The Cuban YouTuber Anita con Swing has celebrated her first year in the United States with a video posted on her YouTube channel, where she reviews the journey traveled, reflects on her life in the North American country, and shares her experiences and learnings since she arrived, highlighting how her perception of the United States has evolved during this time.
Three years have passed since I left Cuba, one year since I arrived in the United States, and also a year since I left Spain behind. This sentence summarizes her journey as an emigrant, highlighting the constant adaptation to new environments and cultures. "I have put my adaptive skills to the test, and to be honest, I do not regret any of the places I have been to or my overall journey. I feel that it is very interesting how it has enriched me with many experiences," the young woman added in her extensive video.
In the video, Anita also reflects on the diversity of opinions that the United States generates. "The United States is a very popular country and everyone has an opinion about it. The most important points are that there are people who have a very negative opinion and there are people who have a very positive opinion, but there also exist those who are neutral, those of us who are a bit more objective in our point of view and can recognize certain good things, certain bad things, and can create a range of opinions, and that would be me."
It also highlights the importance of adapting to the accelerated pace of life in the United States: "The first thing one has to wrap their head around when stepping foot in the United States is the speed at which the system of this country advances, the speed at which everything moves forward, and the speed at which you have to live within yourself." This reflection emphasizes the need to adjust mindset and expectations to the new environment in order to thrive.
Grateful for what has been experienced, celebrating what has been achieved, and taking on new challenges by embracing change and uncertainty as inherent steps towards progress and happiness, the young woman confessed in her video. This provoked congratulations, praise, and applause for her attitude, advice, and her willingness to share her experiences and opinions.
