The Cuban Maylín Rivero, known on social media as @maydari6, has gone viral after sharing a video in which she speaks candidly about the economic difficulties she faces in the United States, despite having achieved her dream of living in that country.
He explained that when he lived on the island, he dreamed of becoming a resident in the United States to travel to Cuba and help his family. However, he now acknowledges that the cost of living in Miami and daily responsibilities prevent him from meeting all the expectations he had. This sparked a wave of critical comments against him, with some people advising, "Don't complain or go back to Cuba."
The Cuban woman posted several response videos, and in them she makes it clear, one way or another, that: “I will continue living my American dream.”
In a recent post, Rivero asserts that she has always been a hardworking woman and that she doesn’t like depending on anyone. “I go where the dollars are, that’s where I’m headed,” she stated with determination, referring to her desire to work and progress in order to achieve her goals.
His testimony has sparked debate among emigrated Cubans, many of whom identify with the struggles of needing to save to send remittances and support their families in Cuba while trying to thrive in the United States.
