A Cuban describes living in a house with 11 people in Mexico: "Before brushing my teeth, I must run to the stove."

The Cuban has turned her daily life in Mexico into a hook to attract followers on TikTok.


A Cuban currently residing in Mexico has transformed her experience of living with 11 other people into content for her social media, depicting the challenges she faces while trying to make her way in that country.

The young woman, known on TikTok as Yosme (@yosme956), shared a video illustrating the challenge of making breakfast when she shares her rent with many people.

"Every awakening is a new beginning, so I would like to show you how mine has been," the young woman started the video.

“The rent I pay is shared with 11 other people, and believe me, before I brush my teeth, I have to rush to the stove to prepare breakfast or get a head start on making food; otherwise, I’ll have to wait my turn,” he noted.

Additionally, in a humorous tone, she mentioned that since she and her husband are “good runners,” she managed to secure one of the top spots: “While he was making breakfast, I was tidying up our little personal space.”

“It’s not a princess’s house, or luxurious, but I believe it has the basic and necessary conditions for living, or at least that’s how I see it,” the young woman said, highlighting the challenges Cubans face when they decide to emigrate.

Finally, he noted that that day was a source of joy, as it had been over 15 days since the water supply had been restored: “And hearing ‘Sir, the water has arrived’ was music to my ears.”

In another video, the young woman also advised those planning to reside or just passing through Mexico that it is not a good idea to do so illegally.

He indicated that, in his experience, the first thing to do is to present oneself at COMAR 1 (Mexican Commission for Refugee Aid).

After registration, you should wait for a notification email with the appointment to appear at the COMAR 2 office.

"It's a long process, it requires patience, and you will not avoid the long lines," he emphasized.
