While there are organisations actually doing some good where needed, many other non profits purposely omit the beautiful aspects and only focus on the worst, the “poverty porn”, embedding the notion that the entire country is a hopeless slum… This 4 part video series is a way for us to share a more profound and positive kind of help. This country needs the outside world to see its real beauty, not its ugliness. Our goal is to open your eyes to a different side of Haiti, a side of Haiti you’ve probably never seen before, and inspire you to travel to this marvellous and unique country.Learn more about Fondation Seguin at:

Not very kind towards animals, are they? Abuse and exploit.
Sorry for your loss🫶🏾🙏🏿🤟🏽
Indeed thank for giving us a more holistic view of Haiti, so different from what the media gives us.
Beautiful Haiti 🇭🇹
Beautiful video, thank you for sharing the beautiful people of Haiti .
thank you both, so happy to see this version of Haiti…the whole truth! 🐉💅🏾
Wow your mom was cute!
This was very educational, thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this !! I felt honoured watching this .
Thank you! You are an inspiration!
Aww so sorry for your loss xxx
If you come to Los Angeles, I will land you my car!
The Dragon In the Kitchen! Bruce Lee yeah!
I love donkeys, they are the most down trodden of all horses, but probably have given us the most. Always asked of the hardest tasks, they truly are a monumental animal. I would love to give one it's freedom, forever.
I know this is 5 year ago, but I am so sorry for your loss.
I am rewatching your videos and as always they are spectacular and amazing and I believe in what you guys are doing and i hope you guys continue with your efforts for decades to come
I like your video because it gives me a more realistic few of what happens in Haiti. I mistrust the media. In Europe they lie and tell stupid stories about Corona and the world. So I think they do it about Haiti and the Caribbean also. Sven from Sweden

I met a couple of Haitian girls in Mississauga and they were both beautiful !
them boots tho
According to the USGS, the soil lost from the mountains due deforestation follow by erosion reduced the weght on the tectonic plate so much, it popped up creating that earthquake in 2010… man made earthquake.
My condolences and prayers for peace beyond understanding for the people she loved.
Do people from Haiti consider themselves West Indiands?
I am really loving your stretch in Haiti so far. One thing that struck me immediately is how happy everyone is; beautiful, friendly smiles everywhere you go. I’m terribly sorry for your loss, so young too.
jean claude van DAAAN – totally funny! 😀
Heh. Jean Claude Van Dammit. 😉
Your Mum looks like she was a very happy person. So sorry for your loss 💗 Haiti looks amazing, really appreciate the balanced view as you're so correct the media really warp our view of the country.
Why did she die so young?
If the charity the ngo's the media put pretty pictures no one will donate. And they will be out of business or scamming whatever you prefer.
Just started watching you guys. What you did on this episode was brilliant. Exposing the poverty porn addiction of the media and NGO’s. I had the privilege of participating in the hurricane relief effort in response to hurricane Matthew back in 2016. Flying over the county and seeing the deviation as well as the parts not so much effected have me a direct experience in seeing the entire county. Keep doing what your doing and stay safe.
Oh my god!!! I figured it out!! Thank you for the clue. You always looked familiar. When you called Dan, Jean Claude Van Danne. (Funny as heck by the way). I remembered that Van Damme was married to Gladys Portuguese for years. And that is where you look familiar.
(Been watching for awhile but only recently have started from the beginning.)
From the moment I clicked on one of your videos and heard kikas voice, I could tell she was Haitian. Thank you so much for addressing the lies about the country. Lovely video
Poor Haiti. The land and the people have been pillaged.
I just don't see how deforestation won't eventually destroy all the remaining wilds of the world.
