Subsequently, the influencer, who is dedicated to traveling the world and already has visited almost 50 countriescriticized other parts of the country: “The roads here suck. There are no fenders, there are no lights and between town and town it can take 3 hours and there are no gas stations. There is not even coverage in the whole countryIf something happens to you, you can’t call anyone and you can’t communicate”.
“As much as they say that this is Argentina and it is a developed country, this is still South America. This is a third world country, don’t be fooled“, she continued to expand visibly angry and mentioned that on her journey from Bariloche to El Chaltén she played twice on the same day, something that “had never happened to her in her life.”

“I’m not making anything up and I’m not criticizing for criticizing. I’m just telling the truth,” the tiktoker began to explain and said that all those who criticized her sayings are “quite ignorant”both by those who told him to go to other countries and by those who told him that his criticisms don’t matter because “we are World Champions”.
In this sense, he explained: “This is the 49th country that I visit and in each country that I go I tell the reality of what I see, as I did in Cuba and as I do everywhere. If I can’t say that everything is rosy in this country, I’m sorry, I wish I could. All I say is to see if it improves, to see if someone listens to me”.
“I have traveled more than 7 thousand kilometers in this country. I have done the country from north to south and now I am doing it from south to north. You are not going to tell me that I am talking about things that I do not knowI’m talking about what I know and what I’m experiencing every day”, he continued in response to those who told him that “there are routes that are very good”.

“You tell me to go to my country, of course I’m going to go to my country. What do you think I’m going to stay here? No, thanks. I’m not going to stay here to live, but you are the ones who go to Spain to livemore at this time”, he retorted to those who told him to return to Spain.
In this sense, he expanded: “Can’t a Spanish woman come here and talk about the country? Here there is freedom of expression as in all places, I can talk about what I live every day and it seems to me that from what I am experiencing many things are not normal”.

You who will continue to live in your ignorance and with your super government making everything perfect as you think it is and that it is a model country, great, do what you want, but I say what there is,” he added in a clear criticism of the current government management.
In any case, he clarified that Argentina “it is a beautiful country” and that “the people are wonderful”, at which point he highlighted places such as Perito Moreno, the Quebrada de las Conchas, the Cueva de las Manos, Córdoba, Mendoza and La Rioja. “I wish you the best and the criticisms I make are for you to improve”sure.
