Woman deported to Haiti describes living conditions
At the beginning of a different video she shared on her TikTok page, she talked about how long she has lived in the US and what she is expecting in Haiti.
Her statement:
"Good morning, my name is Juan, I'm 47 years old. At 5 years old was the last time I was in Haiti. I've lived in the US all my life. I was forced to live back in Haiti due to deportation. My life here is unstable, it's uncivilized."
In another video, she showed her living conditions, including the kitchen and the bathroom she uses in Haiti.
@hatainempress also showed the location where people go to defecate.
Near the end of the video, she showed a place where she was allowed to stay by a woman, pending the time she gets back on her feet, while adding:
"We all sleep on one bed."

She made several statements in the TikTok video, which also carried a description detailing her experience.
It read:
"I was living in the U.S. for 42 years. I left Haiti at 5 years old. I was recently deported. I lost everything. I am so grateful for being alive. I have experienced some horrific, life-changing difficulties since being in Haiti. There is no rest. No security. No jobs, especially for a deported person who is foreign to the culture and traditions. It would mean so much to me if I could get the community's help and support to relocate so that I may find work and eventually return to support my country, Haiti's economy."

Brother G stated:
"Everything happens for a reason, I believe God sent you there to learn a lesson, I’m from Haiti and I don’t know about that life style. I have been living in the united states for 26 years, I can’t wait to go back to my country. That’s where I came from and I’m proud of my country."
