What’s It Like Being a Jamaican Living in Brazil?

In this episode of “Jamaicans to the World”, Jamaicans.com founder Xavier Murphy speaks with Kristopher-Jon Samuel. He is a Jamaican who has lived in Brazil for 10 years. We discuss the food, culture, customs, the people, things to do, the language, music, and adjusting to living in Brazil as an expat. Xavier asks what are the must-eat foods and must-visit places in Brazil. #WeJaminate #Brazil

    As a Brazilian, I am in awe by this video. I love my country and have always loved Jamaica and its culture. I have been living in North America for almost two decades now and this video brought me so many cherished memories. Much love to Jamaica 🇯🇲. Thank you for sharing your experience in Brazil. God bless you all.

    Im from the state he was talking about, Maranhão. Reggae became a part of our culture here. There is no consensus about how we came in contact with reggae music. The most accepted theory is that it came in the 80s throught foreigners in the port of the state's capital, São luis. From there , reggae gained a lot space in São Luís and neerby areas. I grew up listening to a lot o reagge in são luis, as anyone who lives here.

    The continent of South America was roughly divided between the two Iberian colonial powers of 🇪🇸 Spain and 🇵🇹 Portugal. The Spanish half would break up into various countries like Ecuador, Columbia etc. The Portuguese area held together as 🇧🇷 Brazil. Later other European powers would chip off parts of the Portuguese northern territory on the Caribbean coast. They formed countries of British Guiana now Guyana, Dutch Guyana (Surinam) and French Guiana. Brazil is Portuguese speaking and has the largest black population living outside of Africa.
