I’m a gypsy and going into the shops or hairdresser is totally different for us compared to country people | The Sun

A TRAVELLER has shared the one thing that 'country people' (non-travellers) are able to do that she can't do easily.

Charlotte Ann shares videos to her TikTok page where she answers questions on what life is like for gypsies and the cultural differences between them and 'country people'.


In one video, Charlotte Ann replied to a comment from a fan which read: "Is there anything from our culture (non-travellers) that you would like to be able to do?".

Replying to the comment whilst relaxing on a sunbed on holiday, the 29 year old said: "I thought this was a really good question.

"I'd just like to be able to walk into shops and walk into hairdressers and just not be judged or followed."

"People just assume that I'm going to do something wrong."

@charlotteann00 explained that whilst there are "bad gypsies and travellers", there's also white British people that "commit crimes everyday", but they can walk into a shop without any stigma attached to them.

She said: "I don't want to be treated the same as the bad people in my ethnicity. I just want to be seen as me and only me.

"I wish I had the freedom to just be me without any stigma or stereotypes attached to me".

Charlotte Ann said that this is the one thing that she is jealous of and added that she doesn't think that people who have this privilege know what a 'luxury' it is.

TikTokers rushed to the video's comments section to sympathise with Charlotte Ann.

One user said: "I totally get this. I’ve worked in places where they automatically think (travellers) are gonna steal. It’s so wrong."

Another user added: "I've heard of venues cancelling weddings/events just day before because they’ve found out they are travellers."

A third added: "This made me sad, I'm very sorry that you get judged. it's not fair. I was always taught by my Irish Father not to judge or listen to anything negative."
