Hey y'all! We're Chris + Sara (or as you know us, Let’s Be Us), a husband and wife digital nomad travel duo currently working and traveling full time with our pup, Kramer. We've always dreamed of traveling full time, and in May of 2018 we took the leap and made it happen! Today we're balancing work and fun everywhere between the Pacific and Atlantic. From hiking and cycling to tacos and coffee, we're trying to see and experience as much of this world as we can! While our home is currently on wheels in our DIY Sprinter van, our travels take us all around the world.

Chris and Sara, thank you so much for loving my home town. I miss it so much! I have lived in the US now for the last 32 years of my life but when I see videos like your video, I can still smell the trees on a rainy day, taste the street tacos, feel the cool breeze in the evenings, hear the busy streets, and so much more. Mexico City is a magical place where three civilizations met and blended forever. Enjoy!
Daniel, thank you so much for your kind comment! We wish we could send you some tacos and an evening breeze up to you in the US. Your hometown is incredible and we're so thankful your old neighbors have been so welcoming and hospitable. We've certainly fallen in love with your country this month. ❤
Same here! I have lived in the US and Canada for the past 22 years. And watching this video reminded me of the peace and tranquility I would experience growing up in Mexico City and walking some of the streets close to the areas you show in the video. It's hard to describe how such a crowded city can actually feel so easy going. Also - there's a lot of nature for such a large urban area!
Couldn’t agree more!
I also miss it!
Greetings from Chicago USA!
Don’t forget to visit the Chapultepec castle! 🤓✨
Estoy tan de acuerdo con tu comentario, y paisano te esperamos en México nuevamente! Deseo que tú más grande deseo (supongo) que es el poder volver a tu tierra y volver a pisar su brisa, su candor, probar los tacos de puestos callejeros y todo aquello que añoras puedas volver a disfrutarlo de nuevo. Tu México te reclama paisano, a ti y a los tuyos. Recibe el más extenso y genuino de mis abrazos 🤗🤜🏼🤛🏼
@@chrisandsara Hi guys!! Thank you very much for your great thoughts about my loved country, I am and all my people really appreciate your kind words. I see like do You have lil' problems about can't communicate so well here, don't worry guys, in a second chance like do you can make another trip to México, why not you'll contract a translater/ touristic guide? I know, it's more money and lil' expensive, but do you need it guys, it's so necessary. I'm introduce You, am a new subscriptor for your channel. I'm write You and send greetings and huggs from Hidalgo State in México (I'm bilingual). I hope your stancy here do You loved and surprised a lot! If do You want return again so soon for enjoy this Big party called México 🥳🎆🎊🎉🎇🥳🎉❤️ God Blessing You 🙏🏻🤩🥰
Mexico City is my most favourite city in the world.
There was a catch phrase sometime back that went something like this;
Mexico City, the city that the Renaissance went to when it left Europe
@Kai Ikaika YES this its one of the most famouse one. Also México city its knew it as the city of Palaces
ALSO KNEW IT & CONSIDERED AS A LIVING MUSEUM
Mexico 🇲🇽 city. City of contrast. At LEAST. 8 times bigger then Atlanta. I LIVE also in Georgia Mexico city has 16 delegations and the most populated. Has more ppl 6 and helf MILLION ppl then Atlanta
Welcome
That's surprisingly resonant.
One of the most wonderful cities I've ever been (many times). I always tell people that it's the most "alive" place I've ever been. The press loves reporting every bad thing that ever happens.
Agreed. No city is without its faults and struggles, but Mexico City is so much more than what we usually see on TV in the states. Such a vibrant, beautiful place!
asi pása con la prensa, solo cosas malas difunden
@@danielvasquesserrato especialmente de Mexico
Glad to hear this about Mexico City. Definetly is an amazing and exciting city. Unfortunately, our press (and the international one, of course) love to show only the bad things. Welcome also to Guadalajara, my city, in the state of Jalisco. Is an unique and a very traditional place. I bet you all will love it. Greets.
Hi michael, mexico city, is so underrated, is not funny, I sent some friends of mine, from florida two years ago, they love it so much they are going back in april, it is so much to do and see, there is no way you can do it in two weeks.
Me llena de orgullo cuando hablan bien de mi ciudad, en hora buena y gracias por visitarla. Tienes razón al decir que es incomprensible su tamaño, ni yo viviéndola por 48 años la conozco en su totalidad.
Your city is so beautiful, we've loved visiting!
IM FROM MÉXICO CITY. AND O LIVE IN ATLANTA. DO YOU KNOW MÉXICO CITY ITS ALMOST 7 TIMES BIGGER THEN ATLANTA ?? I HOPE YOU CAN VISITED THE HOUSES ON THE AIR. CASAS EN EL AIRE ALSO MÉXICO CITY HAS THE LARGEST GUINNESS RECORD REVOLVING RESTAURANT IN THE WORLD. ITS ON TOP OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER BUILDING. I HOPE YOU CAN CAN GO AND SEE. THIS RESTAURANT. ITS BIGGER THEN. THE LAOUNGE IN ATLANTA AT THE WESTING BUILDING I KNOW BOTH. THE ONE IN MÉXICO CITY ITS THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD REGARDS FROM MIDDLE TOWN ATLANTA
hahahahaha I don't know why they compare it like Peru

Mexico City is one of my favorite cities in the world, amazing food,culture and people.
We agree, it's been such.an amazing experience so far!
Love Mexico city. The different sections are incredible. The Vallie, the Condesa, La Roma, Polanco, Santa Fe etc. Love the art life, culture, design, and architecture. But the people with their warm hearts make it unforgettable.
We agree wholeheartedly!! Such a beautiful country/city!
Gracias por tu comentario tan positivo... 👏👏👏👏💖

Eres bienvenido, todo hermano latinoamericano es bienvenido.
Pues ya vente , serás bienvenido
Eres muy bienvenido hermano!
Explore the entire country and you will find the endless culture and beauty in the people as magical with every corner you round. Viva Mexico!
We will definitely have to come back, there's so much more we need to see!
that is easy to explain, the reason is that there is no mexico, in reality there are many mexicos, several nations can be drawn from mexico.
@@chrisandsara Go to Monterrey, Nuevo León, México.
mexico city is one of my favourite cities in the world. same level of interesting as new york, london, tokyo, moscow, bangkok, rome, paris....
so much history, culture, friendly and educated people, amazing buildings/architecture, great food, great shopping, festivals and super safe at day time. police everywhere.
the place is infinitely safer than colombian, venezuelan and brazilian cities.

Agreed! We absolutely love Mexico City! It has so much to offer that I don't think a lifetime here would be enough to learn all about it. We'll definitely visit again one day to experience even more that it has to offer!
@@chrisandsara i was born 48 years ago, in this city. I'm proud to "know" it very good... And i'm pretty sure that i'm far away from know it all.... it's not just the huge, but the intrincate, like that workshops place you found... CDMX it's a city that it's a little country on it's own
@@benjamindominguezmercado3848 México es una nación de naciones, cada estado incluído el DF es un mundo en si mismo. México is a nation of nations, each state including the capital is a world on it's own.
All of you guys are welcome!!! Mexico City is awesome!
Me gustó tus referencias..tks.por decir cosas positivas
MEXICO CITY 🇲🇽
The oldest capital of North America, and of the Americas.
(Mexico-Tenochtitlan)
Historical capital of four political entities:
Capital of the Aztec Empire
Capital of the Viceroyalty of the New Spain
Capital of the First Mexican Empire
Capital of the Mexican Republic
Nicknamed by the conquerors The Venice of the new world.
Mexico City, is the second city with more museums, in the world, has the Chapultepec Castle, the only real castle in America to be inhabited by emperors.
Besides the Bosque de Chapultepec that is three times bigger than Central Park in New York.
El Paseo de la Reforma is considered the second most beautiful avenue in the world, after the Champs-Élysées in Paris.
The capital has a legacy that mixes architecture, pre-Hispanic, colonial, and modern, making Mexico City a cosmopolitan city.
The ancient Mexico-Tenochtitlan, capital of the Aztec Empire, has been transformed into "Mexico City"
The metropolis of Latin America.

¡¡ A ME RI CA !!
@@mrjustix7379 estudia e informate bien. Américas fue el nombre que le pusieron los españoles al nuevo continente descubierto y Norte América es desde Alaska, Canadá, Estados Unidos y México que te quede bien claro. Antes de criticar un comentario hay que mirar si los que estamos en el error somos nosotros.
@@julioperez8662 exacto America va desde Canadá hasta la Patagonia
Sorry men but the oldest capital in every América is Santo Domingo in República Dominicana, it was founded in 1496 and Mexico City was founded until 1521. PD: I'm Mexican.
Mexico is not a country Mexico is another world, a beautiful country with very friendly people.
Nice video guys good job👌👍👍
Thanks, Daniel! And we definitely agree. Mexico is incredibly diverse and holds so many special things to see!
Mexico City is a place that captures one’s heart. Will no doubt go back to this beautiful, unforgettable city
We totally agree!
HOW LUCKY. Mexico City is a real jewel. Such a blend of old and new. Much safer than in years past. Chris and Sara and Kramer.... enjoy your vacation 😊😃
Yes it is, we've loved it so much! Thank you!
Never been but now I want to visit!
Go! You'll love it!
Go for it brother! You will love it.
¡Ciudad de México es sin duda una de las ciudades más impresionantes y vibrantes del mundo! 🇲🇽🌎
¡sí lo es!
Good video on defeating the narrative that gets shoved down our throats about Mexico.. Love it
Best introduction to Mexico city we've seen, and we've watched a lot. Loved the artists area, kind of reminds us of the arts area of Beijing as do the parks and people dancing in the streets. We experienced that every night there. So cool to see Kramer just flow with everything:) loved this first episode (music nailed it as usual) and especially the last few shots.
Excited for the following episodes. Sending Best Wishes and Blessings, James and Kim ❤️
Thank you so much, we really appreciate it!
Mexico 🇲🇽 it’s so beautiful 😍
Yes, we totally agree!
Yo soy mexicano y estoy orgulloso de mi país saludos 🇲🇽🔥
Wow! This video has completely changed our preconceived notions of Mexico City! Beautiful video, great drone shots!
“Breaking News; Famous TH-cam creators detained at airport with large amounts of Avocados” 🤣
Looking forward to the series! -Cara 😊
😂😂 they're just so good!!
This is the type of travel we dream of getting back to. Thank you so much for sharing this. Can't wait to see more!!
Thanks for watching, y'all! Hope you get back to traveling soon! :)
Orgulloso se ser Mexicano y de escuchar hablar bien de mi País. Aquí se les recibe a todos con los brazos abiertos. Vivo en Cozumel, pero soy de la CDMX. Saludos y soy nuevo subscriptor.
Nice! I have wanted to go to Mexico City for a while. It looks so awesome!
It's a beautiful and interesting city!! Definitely recommend visiting when you get the chance. :)
I love Mexico City!
Lots of trees, friendly ppl, and perfect weather. I love Mexico.
We do too, it's been such a great experience!
After living in Dublin and in Galicia, Spain... I appreciated my city in other way. Mexico is such an amazing country, so intense and warm (not only the weather, the people is so close and kind). Of course no city or country is perfect, but I'm dying to move back to my country
Yes we totally agree, Mexico City felt a lot like that!
Mexico City is one of my favourite cities in the world. After watching the opera soap Cómplices al rescate I fell in love with Mexico and Belinda. One day my dream will come true
It's such an amazing city!
This is so crazy! I am staying in Mexico City for a month and have been here for a week too! I am taking Spanish classes with Spanish in the City and love them! Glad I found your vlogs.
That's amazing!! Enjoy your time here, we've loved it so much!
I'm from Tijuana🇲🇽 I speak Spanish😇

We have lived in Mexico city for the last few months and love it here. The people are friendly and amazing. Our first trip to this city, In the first week we traveled so many diff areas in the city (Centro, Lagunilla Mercado, Coyocan, Roma, Polanco, staying in Juarez/Roma, Doctores, wandering around Escandon, Colonia Napoles, Navarte P., trips to Huipulco, Gustavo Madero). Great food, rich history, warm weather.
Wow that's amazing! We would love to visit all those places while we're here! We've hit a few of them, but definitely not all of them!
México City is such a wonderful place to visit, it has an amazing mixture of culture, food, touristic places, downtown and very friendly people. It is just amazing!!!
We totally agree, we only wish we could've been there longer!
Excelente video y saludos desde Ecuador! 🇪🇨😀✋
Thank you!!
Mexico City is wonderful. What makes it wonderful? The PEOPLE!
We totally agree!
Muy buen video!! México es algo más que Narcos, Drogas o películas de Hollywood ✌️👀
Claro, mucho clasismo, racismo y diferencias sociales bien marcadas impulsadas por el gobierno y empresas extranjeras xD

Loved your first vid of Mexico City. One thing I've learned or at least think, is that young people of the world are gravitating towards Mexico out of curiosity. They hear so many negative things in the media and politicians that they want to see for themselves. I love to hear when they come to Mexico what they find.
I grew up in the USA and all I ever saw about Mexico was desert and crime. With the internet and vlogs I started re-education myself. I went being ashamed to being proud of my Mexican heritage.
I've lived here retired for a year. So many nooks and crannies. It is so great how warm the people are and how they take time to talk with you. They make me feel like a child back making new friends at school. You guys get it. Thanks for this video
Yes to all of this! We totally agree, such a great place to be!
Excellent video! I like that you also talk positive things about Mexico! Since you are here for a visit, I recommend that you go to Bosque Real, a very beautiful and luxurious area here in Mexico. If you like I can give you a tour, it would be a pleasure!
Me alegra que les guste mi ciudad a la gente de otros paises, orgulloso de ser mexicano :)
Yes, we love your city!!
Kramer is living his best vacation life! He's not going to want to leave. lol
HAHAHA He's loving it here lol
Thank you very much to show the real face of Mexico City your channel quality is top.
Thank you so much!! ❤️
Looks like a place we want to go asap! We have been to other parts of Mexico many times and love it. Just a tip, I've heard that other cultures really appreciate even a feeble attempt at speaking their language. You can use an app or get a english/spanish dictionary to just master some basic phrases. Looking forward to more videos. We may go there in October.
Hey Mary! Definitely we're speaking every bit of Spanish we can remember and are using Google Translate to try and learn phrases as we go. Doing the best we can. :) We always try to learn a bit of the language whenever we travel abroad just out of respect for the locals.
Mexicans don’t care trust me 😂Mexicans love tourist lol
👍😍I love Mexico City. Glad you both are enjoying it. Kramer is living his best life in his doggie backpack. 😂 💝
We love it too, been such a great experience so far! Yes, he is loving his backpack 😊🐕

I went for the first time last month and I was blown away. It is huge and sophisticated and the culture is amazing! I can see it is one of my favorite places in the world. I already have tickets to return in the spring.
This was awesome!! You guys have gotten soooooo good at storytelling and editing. Looking forward to more Mexico City adventures!
Thank you!!
Hi yall! We are in Panama🇵🇦 and we did a week of Spanish school & LOVED it! We would highly recommend the experience - We even booked more classes next week to learn more! We are also going to try to make a vlog completely in Spanish about the food here😂 wish us luck!
We will be in mexico in about a month and a half :) Being from Texas, I've actually only been to border towns so Im really looking forward to it.
Oh that's so awesome!! What a great idea, we may have to look into that, good for y'all doing a video all in Spanish 💯

@@chrisandsara thanks and your welcome, you are a very nice sweet Lady, have a blesed day
We suggest go hiking around the city. It can be a bit challenging due to the altitude, but the landscapes are breathtaking. You can start with Desierto de los Leones or Los Dínamos (Cuarto Dínamo). Have a great time!
Such a great recommendation, thank you!

Thank you for sharing your perspective!! Hope you enjoy the rest of your visit as much as the first week. Sending love to the three of you.
Thank you!! We're still loving it here and can't wait to share more soon! Hope you have a great rest of your weekend. :)

Thanks for sharing your experience! I was there in December 1984 and I need to go back and stay a little longer.
Thanks for watching! Yes, you should definitely visit again!
Tenemos todo en nuestra increíble ciudad! Es cosmopolita y moderna, pero al mismo tiempo conserva el sabor de nuestras tradiciones, de nuestra historia, de nuestra cultura, sabor, autenticidad. Saludos desde CdMx
Loved Kramer! He could have a nap traveling in the back, soo sweet!
Mexico city is beautiful
It's so beautiful, we've loved visiting!
Soy local y es impresionante que alguien de haya impresionado con nuestra cultura
We were definitely impressed, thanks for watching our video!
“Garbled nonsensical noises of pure joy” - oh Chris, that had me rolling! So neat to see how they’ve taken an old textile (I think) factory and turned it into a really unique space - artists, coffee roasters, etc. You also seem very comfortable - I guess the city is relatively safe?
Hey Lucas! So good to see you out here! :) Mexico City has become MUCH safer in the last several years. The area we're staying in very safe and clean, which is why we chose it when researching our time here. That being said, the city definitely has a crime issue in parts. We're staying away from areas that we here are less favorable and typically we aren't out at night unless we're Ubering. Honestly, we're traveling the same way here as we would in any other major city in the USA or abroad-- using common sense. :)
Es correcto tu comentario... sólo sentido común.
LOVE Mexico City. One of the best cities in the world. Full of outstanding food, great music and the best vibes. Never felt unsafe!
We loved it too! Can't wait to go back!
Check out our latest video on Merida, Mexico that has just been released! th-cam.com/video/lPK3QQORycE/w-d-xo.html

Chicos gracias por apreciar México , les sugiero ir a Coyoacán, a los lugares turísticos pero pregunten que mas existe en la zona, saludos. Pero sobretodo gracias por poner sub títulos.
It's another world down there. There are really nice areas, great weather, great food, and it really never sleeps.
I have seen many videos of Mexico City, and it is always a pride to know that foreigners like our country, but what I really liked was the mix between the "typical" tourist video and the really professional shots that you handle. A very well edited video, have a new subscriber and I hope to see more content.
Wow thank you so much, we're glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for subscribing!
Thank you for taking me along on your video journey, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I will have to make sure to have Rancho Huevos at the ready when I visit again on your next video. I love that Kramer is so well received there and able to mingle so lovingly with the local habitants. You adventures take me to places that I wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to visit, so I sincerely appreciate you sharing your time with all of us here on TH-cam. Stay safes and stay well. Until next week adios amigos. 🇲🇽🌮
We're so glad you're coming along on our journey via our videos! Thanks for watching!!
AMAZING CITY¡
Every video that shows the BEST OF MEXICO it has my LIKE...............POSITIVE ATTITUDE brings out POSITIVE REACTIONS
Aw thank you so much! We really appreciate it!
I love the doggy backpack, you guys are awesome!
Thank you! Kramer loves it too!
It was fun when you confused the word chamorro with tomorrow and when you said de nada instead of gracias haha it's hard but you will get used to it if you need help with Spanish I can help you 🙋🏻♂️ I'm glad you are having a good time here, lots of tourist have visited Mexico lately and they have been fascinated 👌🏻
Haha, yes Spanish doesn't come too easily to us 🙈 yes, we are loving it here, so sad to leave so soon!!
Stop bullshitting already and learn Spanish. No Mames
This has us so excited to be there soon! Definitely want to visit all of these places. Also, can’t get enough of Kramer in that backpack! 😂
Have so much fun there! I know, he loved it, such a great way to take him all around 😂
Nice to see that you enjoyed Mexico City
Thank you, yes we loved it!
Chris and Sara, thank you very much for this video, I was born here in Mexico City, and after living in California for 19 years, I am now back in my hometown, we are so proud of having you both in our country.
Thank you, we have loved visiting your beautiful home!
What an amazing video! Thank you guys for sharing it.
Thank you for watching!
Absolutely love your videos. The details you provide are always so interesting. Variety of scenery. Amazing!!! Enjoy your trip!
Thanks so much!
Mexico City, one of the world's largest and most populous urban centers, is a captivating mix of history, culture, and modernity. Its bustling streets are lined with a rich tapestry of architectural wonders, from ancient Aztec ruins to colonial-era churches and contemporary skyscrapers. The city pulses with energy, offering an array of culinary delights, world-class museums, and vibrant street art. While it grapples with challenges like congestion and pollution, it's also a place of resilience and transformation, where diverse communities coexist. Mexico City's dynamic atmosphere, deep-rooted traditions, and a constant influx of creativity make it an exciting, complex, and ever-evolving metropolis. Thanks, Chris and Sara!
Watching your video from warm Coachella California. Love how good of a narrative and soft music, makes your video elegant. It's very classy 🍷
Aw thank you so much!
Nice video. It's so interesting that Mexico is so close yet still seems so exotic to many Americans, myself included.
Deberías venir a México!!!
Love it!! Can't wait to see more next Sunday. I don't really have many routines that are a must but making my coffee and watching you guys on Sunday mornings is a never miss. Kramer looked so cute and hip in the back pack just chilling lol
Hey Clay!! So glad we can be a part of your weekend routine. :) That makes us so happy! Kramer is THRIVING in his backpack so I'm sure there will be more footage of him riding on our backs coming soon. lol
Loved it!!!!🥂🥂🥂🥂
Thanks for watching!
México City it's on my Top5 favorite cities in the world. My 1st time here was back in the 90s and it was so much fun. I just went back last year for my 8th trip to this metropoli full of story, nice people, good food and tons of things to do and see. It's never enough when you are in Ciudad de México. Come back anytime. Mi casa es tu casa.
We would love to come back again sometime, there's just so much to do and see and experience here!
Love your music & film choices! I say that cuz I’ve seen sooo many van or travel videos that - just say keeps my attention! Love your dog pack - didn’t know. But, watching cuz I’ve always wanted to go to Mexico City! Love you guys! Los amo! (Hope I said that right)
Thanks so much, we really appreciate it!
La ciudad de México,sobre todo el centro es hermoso,voy todos los días y aun así descubro más cosas muy interesantes
Mexico City is probably one of the most beautiful cities in the world
We agree, we loved it there!
Another great video, team. Kramer had us laughing so much! Thanks for that!
Thanks for watching! Oh yes, Kramer is always the real star of the show!
I am loving your videos. It seems you guys would be so fun to travel with!!
Thank you!
Great video! Would love to explore more of Mexico some day! This made me want to even more! Subscribing to follow along your journey!
It's been such an amazing experience so far, can't wait to show everyone more of it!
When I tell you my mouth watered when you were eating the mango with chilli 🤤
😂 so good, right?!
Thanks for coming!!
Just came across you guys!!! Love the style of vlog..

Greetings from California 🖖🏼
Thanks for watching, we've had such a wonderful time here!
chamorro! ... tomorrow? LOL I'm glad you love MEXICO TENOCHTITLAN!
Haha, thank you!
Hello Chris and Sara, it is a pleasure to greet you and to know that you liked Mexico City. I am a Mexican from the state of Guanajuato. As you say in your video, you have only traveled a very small part of Mexico. They need to know a lot about what this Huge City has to offer. If you allow me, I would like to recommend that you visit the Palacio Postal de Correos, the Casa de los Azulejos, the Chapultepec castle, the Inbursa aquarium, the Soumaya museum, the Cathedral, the Basilica of Guadalupe, the Palacio de Bellas Artes, the Torre Latin American, the zócalo, Presidente Mazarick Street, Madero Street, Parque la Mexicana, City Market in Las Lomas and many places that exist and will be pleasant. I am already one more subscriber on your channel and I thank you for your nice comments and signs of friendship, which you have had with our Mexican people. Mexico is YOUR HOME and we are waiting for you in the state of Guanajuato. My name is Fernando and they have one more friend, here in Mexico. Greetings and Blessings to both.
Hello Fernando! Thanks so much for your comment and all your recommendations! We truly thank you for subscribing and following along with our travels. We would love to visit more of Mexico and will definitely have to add Guanajuato to our list!
@@chrisandsara Thank you for your response, we will be gladly waiting for you, so that you know what this beautiful state offers. no doubt you will love it. Greetings to both and a hug with affection, your friend Fernando.
Nice video. Try south of the city. From Colonia del Valle to San Ángel, Coyoacán, Chimalistac. Different but interesting vibe than Roma-Condesa.
Thanks for the advice!
Same here, I knew I was going to like CDMX, but I had no idea. It’s my new favorite big city. I can’t wait to go back.
It's so amazing!!
Thanks Chris and Sara for exposing the true side and images of Mexico .
Thank you so much for describing Mexico City so beautifully!!
Thanks so much for watching!
As a mexican myself, sometimes I wish I could know and understand how USA people actually think we are before they come down here..how they imagine México..I´m saying this cause, well we are a stil developing country, with typical "third world" problems, i mean we are not special in a development way, yet they end up super surpised by Mexico wich tells me that they haver veeeeeeery low expectations and really think we live i the dark ages down here jajajaj
too much Netflix that's why lol
I’m A Chicana from the East Coast (Washington DC) and I can tell you for a fact, that the majority of gringos are super ignorant about Mexico. Hasta los gringos que son “buena onda” son muy ignorantes sobre Mexico, aunque sea sin querer. Por ejemplo, cuando les comentaba a mis conocidos que iba ir a Mexico para visitar a mi familia, automáticamente suponían que iba ir a la playa. Les explicaba que no era el caso porque mi familia es de un estado del centro de Mexico y los gringas se quedaban sorprendidos que Mexico tenia estados 🤦🏽♀️. Piensan que Mexico solo es playa o desierto; lo peor es que opinan sin haber viajado a Mexico ellos mismos. Yo creo que esa ignorancia se debe a la mala educación en las escuelas públicas de USA, porque lo único que nos enseñan (muy brevemente) es sobre la Intervención estadounidense en México.

Eso de tercer mundo es usado en la politica gringa para subestimar a otros paises y lo usan como una arma para obtener poder y ganancias .. dejate de esas cosas y que te valga queso lo que tengan que opinar los gringos, arabes, chinos o europeos etc... no busques aprovacion de nadie
hope all ppl were as adventurous, open minded and willing to embrace new cultures as you guys do. Intercultural exchanges would be easier for all of us.
There's many Mexico Cities inside Mexico City, there is Centro, Roma, Condesa, Chapultepec, what is the main turistic-historic, most gentrified part of the city, there's Tlatelolco little northern this areas, an ancient cite from the mexicas (aztecs) that was turn into the greatest proyect of public housing, and where students protesting where massacred by the government in 1968 (just before the Olympics) in Plaza de las Tres Culturas (Plaza of the three cultures) known as it because of the meeting of the three cultures of mexian history: the ancient ruins, an old colonial church, and the modern progressive construction of the complex (1950s).
On the south you can dive into the old colonial towns that got eaten from the city like Coyoacán Centro and San Ángel, where you can find museums (as Frida Kahlo's or Trotsky's house), very old churches form the XVI century, lots of handcraffts (Bazar del Sábado), and the most traditional mexican restaurants (recommend Fonda el Morral, and Mercado de Coyoacán).
Even southern there is Ciudad Universitaria (C.U.), the campus of the National University of Mexico, known as a world heritage place with murals from Orozco, Siqueiros and Oghorman, and a plain field to sit on a tree and chill with your dog.
The most important museums I recommend: MUNAL, Bellas Artes, Museo de la Ciudad de México, Frida Kahlo's house, Trotsky's house, Castillo de Chapultepec, Museo Nacional de Antropología, Museo de Arte Moderno, Museo Tamayo, Soumaya, Museo Jumex, Cineteca Nacional, the aztec ruins behind the cathedral, Casa-Estudio Frida y Diego, and much more!
Don't get scared to use the metro, it is actually safe and most of the terror is because of the stigmatization of it (mostly bc racism and clasism), theres security guards in every station, just take care of your belongings bc the most that can happen is getting pick-pocketed. Also try to avoid the peak hours bc it gets very congestionated.
It's important to know that not all CDMX looks like Condesa or Roma or Centro, there's many realities inside the city. There are american like suburbs, there are poor and segragated parts of town, lots of public housing complex, as lots of private luxurius appartments. Mexico City is still a very divided city although its history of blended cultures. Loved the video. :)
