Isn't Mexico dangerous ?, cartels run that country, I wouldn't live there.
$20 for lunch and $40 for a room in a cheap part of Mexico means you're being charged Gringo prices not local prices. I have friends who spend a couple of months in winter in Mexico, and they pay a fraction of that. One is originally from there, so they clearly pay local prices.
Exactly
$20 for what they were eating is ridiculous.
can you teach us how to pay local price?
yea but if you don't speak spanish thats what they charge they tried doing that to me and i told them no iam mexican don't charge me that and they said ok and charge me the original price
there is no grigo prices there are laws to have prices posted, so no you are just going to the tourist spots but food being cheap in Mexico, if you go to apple bees(weird to see a yank in the part were most non poor people go, whats with the loving misery?) It's only cheaper for some items and way more expensive than u.s. Applebee's, I would rather pay 4 times the price(cheaper than tourist traps) than to interact with the poor, you think we enjoy beggars and people playing annoying music?
Authentic how exactly most of our culture was created post civil war, 1930's, if you dont count the ever evolving Vaquero(original cowboys) culture thats our oldest culture but we are white and you dont like that do you, that would be like you going to live in the u.s. but you only want the projects to have the most authentic eperience, you are just there to feel better about your self we only want the one in Cancun and la condeza any way, the rest of you weirdos are going to get it soon (way more taxes and visa requirements)
Being chilly there at night is a huge bonus because it's great sleeping weather. I CAN'T sleep if I'm hot. This place would be a paradise for sleep.
SLEEPING WEATHER ?
JESUS CHRIST.
Wow, what a trip! I got laid off in 2011 and traveled around Mexico in a bus (up from Guatemala) and ended up in gto. I started my online business in the 3 years I lived there, right down the street from Bar Fly. Shout out to Cafe Tal! That's where I worked every single morning while I built my business. Now I live in Southeast Asia since 2016, traveling all over the world. Guanajuato City is such a gem. No car needed and cheeeeap rent. $240 right in the center of town. I'm gonna get a residence visa in Mexico soon and I'll spend my time mostly in Condesa and Gto city. My two favorite spots in Mexico. Thanks for the vid, love it!
In Italy I pay 200 bucks a month for accomodation
Medical care is zero
I get paid double twice a year
I get paid on sick leave.
Education is almost free.
Food is fresh and healthy...
As a Mexican, I'm on the same exact situation americans are: can't afford decent food nor housing, living in Guanajuato as a student has been one of the best experiences in my life, however, it's been also the hardest.
The views are just beautiful, but I'm literally starving lmao
Cartel trouble?
@@johntemple2347 Really bro?
@@johntemple2347 Elaborate
I mean to be honest it depends on your accent is chicanos in America don’t speak Spanish in our native accents sometimes people mistake me for a Colombian/Salvador sometimes depends on the season I guess and a Central American accent can cause a lot of trouble they littered robbed a lot of cities on their way through.
Yo creo que es triste que ciudades en Guanajuato se estén americanizando y estén perdiendo su identidad mexicana.
Guanajuato es un hermoso estado en dónde se principió el movimiento independista de México en la ciudad de Dolores.
Y el mejor compositor de música nació en Guanajuato, y me refiero a José Alfredo Jiménez.
Guanajuato es hermoso pero se ve que prefieren al extranjero y aunque sea barato para los extranjeros, para el mexicano mismo es bien caro.
haha, with all do respect, if you are talking about moving to Mexico, best to learn that referring to "America" in Mexico and all countries in Latin America for that matter, means the entire American continent. Just say the United States, the U.S. or the States!
It can be used in various ways. And we used it as one of them:
America (əˈmɛrɪkə)
n
1. (Placename) short for the United States of America
@@stayclassyvlog *of*
Come on bro… I’ve been to more than one country in South America. They always refer to me as “American” and from “America”. Not from “the States” like Europeans. Way to be a
Karen ✌️
@@Vorenus875 in English is American but in Spanish is Estado Unidense
Just call them gringos
It's like any place else that Americans with money flock too. The local realtors and everyone else figures out "what Americans afford", and they charge accordingly even if it drives their own friends out of the city. Greedy people are everywhere, and as soon as people figure out you have money, the price goes up.
100%!
true that. money eats its own
There once was a bargain expat lifestyle, but not by the the time it gets on TH-cam. It's true of all these videos. Only explorers with some kind of hook-up get these goods.
Many Americans and Europeans are moving to Medellin,Colombia:great people,great climate, good produce and good food:overall good great city
i love San Miquel de Allende, but Guanajuato is definitely the jam. there's nothing like it. it's a gem. i'd definitely move there!
I've been to Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende but I fell in love with Guanajuato the moment i arrived that stunning place. I have good memories there, it has a special place in my heart.
Don't miss walking up and down and all around the stairs there. I wouldn't say Guanajuato is "very safe", It's easy to end up in the wrong neighborhood, let me tell you. Being there for the Cervantino festival was quite an experience!!
$500 pesos is closer to $26 USD, not $20USD. If you paid that for two bowls of poke or “healthy” food then you overpaid. You can get cheaper in the states...
That's what I was thinking. Definitely not a cheap lunch.
lmao premium healthy food in mexico (like poke) is extremely expensive
@@ono2023 and that’s not what these clowns are peddling
I lived in Guanajuato briefly in the mid 80's. I love the place and would go back in a heartbeat.
Ok but get a job that pays in pesos taht way you wont cause gentrification
@@giratinabasado8436 If you only knew me.😂😂😂😂😂👍✌️
(2 of my job descriptions would be useless eater and social parasite, at least in the eyes of some.)
@@giratinabasado8436 people just need to use pesos and not dollars and stop tipping so much thats all
🤗 Enjoyed the video, thanks for posting!
Beautiful video, good commentary. Well done. Thanks!
This is exactly the kind of city I have been looking for, a secluded mountain city with mild mountain weather. Not a hot weather person.
You would love Toluca then.
@@dianabrewer6213 Thanks Diana. Being so close to Mexico City, is it a lot pricier tho?
@@JG-tt4sz From what my friends from there tell me, it is about the same as the rest of Mexico. Actually, MC is not that expensive for such a huge city. It is like most comparable places,ie. NYC, LA, MIA.. You can find your little niche of affordability in these places, but you need to get in there and study it to do so.
it's not really secluded. Leon, Celaya and Irapuato are all within an hour and 15 minutes.
Thank you so much for the video experience!! Beautiful and now I cannot wait to see it in person!
I stayed in Guanajuato for two weeks when I was in my 20’s and I loved it. Seeing those cobblestone streets again takes me back.
I was an expat from 2009-2016 in HCMC, VN (SAIGON, VIETNAM). I lived with my GF outside the city on $1000/Mon. Then my VA retirement came in a yr later. Let's say we were very comfortable then. Got a 2+1 highrise Condo in D5 for $500/Mon secure parking. Our living room even had a big fish tank. Endless City Vistas. And...5 min to D1 Tourists/Expat everywhere. Good food/shopping.
Once the gringos discover this place, there goes the charms and the low cost of living.
So make the most of it….
Never been to Mexico but your videos made me add it to my list of “ must visit”.
I've been there and if you live Centro there's really no cars which means ultimately the gringos won't live there because it requires them to walk which gringos don't like to do 🤣 Spent time in San Miguel Allende as well and for sure this is a better choice in my opinion! It's also a college town which I'm surprised they didn't mention...
oops! They did mention it in passing near the end... 😁 I've been to a lot of places in Mexico and while there other places I would prefer to visit if I wanted to live someplace this would be number one of my list so far
Exactly. The rich took over NY and now it's lost it's diversity and charm. Damn shame so the rich can stay rich
@Oumunfei Holeto ---- Yeah, ....that's kinda like how Americans feel about illegal aliens that come from all over the world.
Maybe that information is missing from the video, but Guanajuato is the 3rd city with most US population in México (only after Chapala-Ajijic and San Miguel de Allende). So, we already have a lot of gringos here. But they have adapted very well, and haven't change a lot the beautiful environment of our city.
Friends and I were attacked in Mexico, so there is definitely that element. Others we know have been shaken down by authorities with threat of jail.
Where? In a big city, right?
sounds friendly to me wtf!
@@GregMoress No , smaller coastal town and shake down by police was same town
crime exists everywhere, you physically can't stop everyone from committing bad things
ATTENTION!!!! Where will you go when you die? Heaven or Hell??? We can not hide our sins from GOD. Repent and accept Jesus as you Lord and Savior before it is too late. Jesus loves us and He can forgive us of any sins that we have committed. HELL IS REAL!!!! THE LAKE OF FIRE IS REAL!!!! MATTHEW 3:2 REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.!!!!
I'm one of very few people whom although raised and lived in the US since I was 11 months old, I've maintained the ability to speak, read, and write Spanish as well as someone who's been living in Mexico their entire life.
When I've spoken to native Mexicans here in the US in Spanish, they get shocked when I tell them that I've lived in the US practically all my life and still sound as though I were a native Mexican who recently arrived to the US. My diction and pronunciation in Spanish is as clear and identical as a native.
They would never know this about me until I later tell them.
Very quaint and nicely done! Thank you I learned alot.
You are a brilliant video editor. Very entertaining content and pretty informative too!
Thanks so much, Luke! Appreciate it!
Considering buying real estate in Mexico as a foreigner? A few important things to know:
1. Cash only purchase: As a foreigner “extranjero”, you cannot get a mortgage for a house; only Mexican citizens and residents are allowed loans.
2. Property title: you DO NOT hold the title to the Mexican property as a foreigner if you buy 50 kilometers (about 30 miles) from the coast and 200 kilometers (about 125 miles) from the border. What you get is a “fideicomiso” which is essentially a trust held at a Mexican bank, and the bank holds the title for you. Sounds dodgy, right? Like, what if the bank defaults or goes out of business? That was our biggest fear. But! Fideicomiso is the legal way they do real estate in Mexico, and it’s the only way to buy RE as a foreigner near the ocean and/or borders.
3. Residency: Mexico recently upped their financial requirements for becoming a resident, and it’s absolutely insane: $180,000 USD in your savings account!
Not trying to deter anyone from purchasing RE, just trying to inform and educate :)
I regularized during the Covid scare; the government didn't charge me too much, and now I have a permanent visa in the cheapest country on this side of the planet. Oh, my income is nearly nothing, only SS payments. So there's the "official" way to do it, and there's the actual way.
@@Pimp-Master Thanks for sharing your story! Always so interesting (and inspiring) to hear success stories from expats, especially in non-conventional ways. So happy for you :) What city do you call home now?
You need to look into getting the retiree visa -- then there is not $180k saving account requirement.
@@boink800 I’m only in my 30s 🙃
@@velourialamour Look into Ecuador, as Ecuador is a much better deal.
I lived in Tijuana Mexico for 3 years I lived on $50 a week food the fish was 275 a kilo that's $2.75 for two and a half pounds the beef was $2 a kilo I ate fine my rent was $400 a month and that was near the beach beautiful apartment
I hear a lot of people are to Tijuana a lot cheaper than San Diego CA.

@@amchapo oh ya, but the millions of Latinos going across the US border is fine right? Mexico and Latin America are very lucky that people with money are coming into their country and raising the standards of living here. The US, Canada and Europe are not so lucky with the migration they are experiencing.
@@RedroomStudios raising the standards of living for themselves and other white immigrants all while kicking the locals out
@@RedroomStudios diffrence being when Latinos go to the US we get treated like human garbage. Why should we take estadounidenses with open arms?
I've been living in Guanajuato for 16 years now, and I can tell you I pay $75 USD per month for my rent. And it's a furnished aparment (all services included) in a very nice area of the city, with parking spot. Since it's mainly a student city, the costs stay low for everybody, including tourists, retired foreigns and professional workers from other cities (like myself). In your video you guys said you didn't see tourists, but well, probably it wasn't a weekend when a lot of mexican tourists come to our city to party. Or maybe it wasnt vacation high season or holidays, when a lot of foreing people come to visit the city. BTW, in October we host the BIGGEST artistic festival in Latin America, and 3rd biggest in America (Festival Internacional Cervantino), which this year just happened to be its 50th anniversary. That's when we get tons of people from every part of the world, and the city main income (tourism) gets its best benefits. Thanks for the video!
Ooooooh a Parking Spot !
Can you share info/link so I can get similar accommodations as you have, thanks
You won me at $75.
$75 per month??? 😮 sounds unreal.
@@skunkie110trust me, latino countries are way cheaper.

If You liked Guanajuato so much,then you should visit the city of Taxco in the state of Guerrero and you'll fall in love with it too!
I love Taxco! All the silver, the town square...beautiful!
The sad thing is that the same people moving there are actually buying places raicing up the prices and at some point locals will not be able to afford living there.
This is not true if the construction industry builds enough homes to meet demand. Prices are going up because incomes in the country are going up. Maybe learn some basic economics before sharing your foolish opinions.
Great video minus the eeirie museum.
Thank you for sharing your fabulous experience.
What lovely folks you are and great video.❣
No. I live in SMA and it is an incredible -- and incredibly close -- place to visit. ( And like your observations.)
That looks like a really beautiful town peaceful with so much character. 😍 if I went there I would be looking for some nice silver jewelry.

@@donHooligan shut up. It's not about stealing for people like me. If it wasn't for colonies millions of people would not have found Christ.

Stop fooling why would you come if all of you Americans discriminate us and mistreat us why would you love my country Mexico if you despise us, Im saying because Ive watched the news of how all of you yell,insult, discriminate, and bully us because of we are Mexicans and when you hear us when we are speking Spanish with our familiars Im tired of people who pretend to love a country and its people when you deep inside you despise us all.
@@JoseSanchez-fp3mp Wow! Peace be with you.
THAT FAITH PRAISING WAS AWESOME THAT'S WHY THAT PLACE IS SO NICE!
Locals need to prepare for higher housing prices in the future. Maybe encourage visiting for tourism vs gentrification.
Already happening
San Miguel de Allende is exploding and really don’t need more promotion like this video. There are hundreds of videos about San Miguel. Give it a break. Talk about the water problem instead of promoting why people who earns dollars or euros should come live here. You need to show both sides of the medal. And we’re not talking about how locals can’t afford to live in their own town.
what is wrong with gentrification? it has way more positives than negatives. somehow it's a human right that people should be allowed to live in run down decaying buildings? instead of worrying so much about gentrification in Latin nations, you should worry about the destruction of US cities and towns by millions of undocumented migrants who have no money, no work and too often a criminal background. the US is being absolutely overrun and destroyed by the migrant crisis, but somehow that is virtuous.
@@marilou4960 as if the number of videos is the cause. people are leaving wealthy western countries in droves because of the corrupt Marxist agendas they are pushing on their citizens. people have to go somewhere and San Miguel is one of those places. there are dozens of other magnets for people in Mexico. why is it that you dont express concern for the US being overrun by undocumented migrants with no job prospects and that have a high rate of criminal activity? clearly brainwashed by leftist ideology. it's somehow only the brown people that are always the victims.
@@RedroomStudios I'm pretty sure the US is the one bringing in immigrants because of how much money it brings to the country, and how lazy the people who live in the US are. They need a larger work force of people who do real jobs that actually contribute the maintenance of buildings, electricity, utilities, and farming, it's the only way the economy can thrive.
Either way, the other commenter has a right to worry about his own country just as you do about yours... you shouldn't be mad because they don't give you special privileges when you visit their country.
Also, it's surprising how many Americans are misinformed by media... You should look up this scientifically reviewed article:
Source:
Stowell, Jacob I., Ramiro Martinez, and Jeffrey M. Cancino. "Latino crime and Latinos in the criminal justice system: Trends, policy implications, and future research initiatives." Race and social problems 4 (2012): 31-40.
SUMMARY:
- Media portrayal and public perception often overstate Latino involvement in crime.
- The increase in Latino incarceration is partly due to policies and enforcement programs like Operation Streamline and enhanced border security.
(You can blame your politicians for creating fake media here in order to fund things that they want)
- Using data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the study found that higher Latino concentration is generally associated with lower homicide victimization rates.
(This finding contradicts the stereotype that increased Latino populations lead to higher crime rates.)
- Regional analyses focused on border states showed that counties near the US-Mexico border do not have significantly higher homicide rates compared to non-border counties.
National analyses revealed that states with the highest Latino population growth did not experience increased homicide rates; in fact, they saw sharper declines in homicide rates compared to the national average.
Its so nice that you make it really expensive for the locals. Dont get me wrong, youre welcome but I wish people thought more about their impact where they land.
Visitors and tourists don't make it expensive. Greed makes it expensive. If the people who live there raise the prices, then they're the ones who make it expensive, and sometimes who force out their own fellow countrymen. Please don't blame visitors for rising prices. Blame those who raise the prices to gouge the visitors.
Exactly, gentrification and people don’t realize they’re doing it but that’s what happens. Sad
@@gsanchez5116 I don't think it's reasonable to blame visitors for locals raising prices. It's more reasonable to blame the greed of those who are raising prices to gouge the visitors.
People need to take more responsibility for admitting that they're irrationally greedy, and that they don't actually care about how their choices may negatively impact others. Only then will 'the problem' be identified at its root cause. And only when the root cause is identified can an effective solution be created and implemented.
You should go to Patzcuaro, you will love it too and it is not that far from Guanajuato; like 3:30 hrs.
Nice work bro!!!!
We already relocated to Morelia, Michoacan. Few expats. Great culture, and wonderful people, low cost of living!

Hi Guys!
First the translation of "what he said" at the end of your video. "For everything bad, Mezcal, for everything good, the same, AND IF IT DOESN"T HELP, THEN (drink) A LITER AND A HALF. Cute saying!
Loving your Mexico vlogs. I lived and went to school in Guadalajara from 1978 to 1982, and it got into my soul. I loved it. The people, the food, the climate, todo. I visited Guanajuato back then and bought some great boots. I've been following you since Portugal which I finally visited this past September in part due to your vlogs
. We loved it, but not enough to want to live there. Now we want to check out the Costa del Sol area of Spain. However you have me thinking about mi Mexico! Keep up the good work. By the way, Guadalajara is a great city that has everything except beaches/ocean. The medical care is excellent, which I don't know would be true in Guanajuato.
Thanks for the translation! Happy to hear you’ve been following us sincr Portugal. Good luck on your Spain adventure! ♥️
Drove from California all the way to the Yucatan in the mid 70's and saw most of the country and loved it and had no problems stayed for 2 months.
I used to see Yucatsn from far away on a drill ship. Looking at the beach lines with binoculars. 1 day I'll make the trip over there and visit.
Guanajuato is my favourite place to visit in Mexico, isn’t it amazing!!! We have amazing memories from Guanajuato!! Sorry I guess I’m enjoying another video of yours. You two are so interesting. 🤔 I think so 😉

HEY TRAVELERS! Here's a tip: bring your own container or thermos when you purchase a drink. That's so you don't use one-use throwaway containers and add to the garbage problem. Same with bags when shopping for groceries. Bring you own. A little mindfulness goes a long way amigos.
Seriously this should be done everywhere: but every morning for years I see coworkers come in with their coffees.
Bought at Tim Hortons etc.
Every. Morning. Most of them.
For years.
I never do.
It pisses me off. Along with wasting water taking two showers a day and etc.
Guanajuato is beautiful and affordable!! I stayed twice at Hotel Edelmira. Right across the street from the yellow gold cathedral landmark is a cafe that has amazing food! Crazy to say but the best club sandwich I've ever had. I say that because it was all real meats not sliced processed. Actually that was the norm across the city, amazing food! Esp the real homemade ice cream vendors too. It feels like you're in 16th century Spain which I believe is when it was built by the Spaniards. Absolutely beautiful!
Do your research the Spanish after invading didn't build it they forced the Indians that lived there to build it, under penalty of death or imprisonment and stole all their gold, silver and gems and took most of it back to Spain. Believe me the Indians didn't get paid anything to do it either. Do you actually believe the Conquistador's or the Catholic priest built those church's, Cathedrials and buildings? They didn't! Read how the Spaniards treated the Native people worse then the white European's treated the American Indians.

The song the guys are singing at 11:29 (Chan Chan) is Cuban. Great song, and they sound great.
Looks like a great city.
Love the video.
That bowl of delicious looking food they were eating was not inexpensive. $20.00 ! I live in south Florida. Not a cheap place to live. That's what I pay for a simple lunch here.
I was thinking the same thing, and today's exchange rate it is really $26. Was she talking 500 pesos for 1 meal or two?
My thoughts exactly. Lunch at my local Mexican joint runs about $15 after tip.
My family is from Guanajuato. Nice to see others moving in and enjoying such a beautiful place
Please tell me how I can move there step by step and how much it costs and can I find a job there or do I need to work remote and is they internet good
I spent 4 days before I went home from visiting SMD. I had a blast! Stayed in an Airbnb.. I hope you do at least for a little while!
Thanks a lot, you two. Now you just went and added another city to my lists of "want to check out" places. Hehehe
It looks like a really great place. We live in Ouray CO (touted as the Switzerland of America); which is just below 8000 feet elevation. So, the Guanajuato attitude would be no problem. We were in Mazatlan in August and September; felt it was too hot for us. I doubt that would be a problem here.
Safe travels
Hahaha hahaha 😂😆 I had to watch this video 3 times cuz the frozen dog caught me off guard. I couldn't stop laughing 🤣
Great video and info once I could actually pay attention 😜☺️...Thank you for sharing.
Gr8 vid !
Thank for appropriate respect for the beautiful local culture.
Mexico is a beautiful country 😍 ❤️
Beautiful but horrible horrible language that gives me a headache after 2 minutes . Too bad Mexico and South America aren’t English speaking then all those countries would be 1st world instead of 3rd world l
@@HectorGarcia-nb2ld You forgot Central America and Spain
6:51 that's the hotel I stay when I go there. It's very descent and clean. About $50 USD a night and it's called Hotel Real Guanajuato ❤ they have 3 floors and a roof top where you can hangout and take amazing pictures of the city.
Such a nice place to live and enjoy.😊❤.
The food is another reason.😊❤
When I was 14 I went camping all over Mexico. 27 some time in the Yucatan. And, I miss it at 66. But, I'm here where I am probly forever, but that's okay. Yes, I would move to Mexico--in the city that's hard to pronounce especially. But, I'd learn Spanish first. Thanks for the video.
Did they still love you when you were 64?
@@deller5924 Probly not.
That is not cheap for food. I live in Thailand and I could spend $20 and eat five times. Y'all paying American prices lol.
$20 is not Mexican prices either. You can easily eat very well in Mexico for $5 or even less.
Excellent work~
i've never been to mexico but i lived in nevada for 2 years and a lot of my close friends were mexican as well as most of my co-workers (i did construction) , im from Hawaii so i am used to people of all races, and i felt comfortable around them cause they look similar to Filipinos and i grew up in a filipino town. I love everyone , and i want to go visit mexico one day!
Don't go, it's not that great trust me.
what are you talking about?..im Mexican and i dont look like Filipino guy
Filipino?! Are you kidding? LoL
Find a reason to visit. Because making or not making the step is what holds people back.
We are not an experience, we are people.
We want to experience the people, at least I do. I'm sick/embarrassed of what my country has become. I yearn for a beautiful place with a slower pace of life, friendly people etc. My culture, American culture, is sick, not all aspects of it, but, enough to really make you think twice about raising children here, or retiring here.
A Good People too...
@@Johnpaul-vu8tn American culture will be present so long as you remain east of the pacific ocean, west of the Atlantic and anywhere between Alaska and Cape Horn... Just as Asia, Europe, Africa are continents, America in itself is a continent made out of 57 countries (fifty seven)
@@Johnpaul-vu8tn your country has been looting ours for generations so stay home and fix it before making a mess in ours by driving up housing prices
@@JoseGonzalez-kr8gg lol, just like all the people from Mexico/South America rushing the southern borders of the United States, I don't want to/can't fix the problems at home, and no longer want to be a part of it.
Beautiful area! I could probably live there! How far are the from the serious problem areas is what my main concern would be!
Thanks!
🤎 Guanajuato.. one of my favorite places
You two are the best! This was really interesting. We’ve discussed moving to Mexico and I’m grateful for your footage and narration. But seriously- you would never leave Portugal, right?
I would check out Antigua Guatemala are Leon Nicaragua
6:05 It does kind of look like vids I've seen of Brazilian favelas -- from a distance, but much less scary up close! 😍 Joining Vancouver on my bucket list 🤔
My dad was from Guanajuato 🇲🇽 very beautiful and colonial… Spain 🇪🇸 made a beautiful city! And their is many more in Mexico.. I live in Los Angeles and to be honest I would rather stay in America than to stay Mexico. It’s too unsafe I will rather pay more for my safety.
they only show the good not the bad I guess they learned that lesson from Brazil videos it's all about views to them not the real world... I'm about to leave this channel.....
@@RaeganNunes what happened in Brazil?
Imagine that. Los Angeles is in the 9th percentile for safety, meaning 91% of cities are safer and 9% of cities are more dangerous. Says a lot about Mexico.
It is one of the most beautiful cities in Mexico. The food is incredible and the people very nice. I recommend…
I'm sorry but the food is not good in Gto hahaha
Cartels are nice to? Lol 😂
I agree with Marcello - this city is AMAZING and fun, too. I stayed in Centro and thank the hotel for managing parking for my big SUV - parking is difficult in Centro, but everything was economical and we loved one shop that made fruit shakes (Vitaminas). I found some mechanics for fixing our electric windows ($30 each) and we had a water pump replaced for about $200. Food has been fine everywhere in Mexico, but I'm not a fan of eating your way through travel - I merely eat to live and do not live to eat!!!
@@GamingforNostalgiaForFun yes! They are! Do you want some...mmm...come on, you know what I mean. Do you want some? Yeah, you want it!!!!! Dont be shy!
Guanajuato center of Mexico!!!! It's wonderful. The person who I met at the gym is from there Guanajuato She was using a machine at the gym in a different way then most people use that so I asked her what that was good for... All I hear is ... At first I didn't understand so I asked again ... And I hear is... Hablas español. ???? Fortunately I speak Spanish fluently. I stopped going to the gym thus the pandemic (I do keep in tone with my stuff at home though up to now) but thanks to her I've shaped up better cuz she taught me a few exercises.
She comes from a wonderful place and she still has her mother there. She has her husband and three children who are barely adults so she has her life here last I know but I haven't seen her since before the pandemic so I don't know.
I love in your thumbnail for this video, you have Bryan Cranston in 2 very different roles. He's such a versatile actor.
Mexico is underrated AF, has sooo much diversity in people and climate, been all over the world and Mexico is one of my favorites easily
@@imagineme6406 I don't understand what Mexico being close to the US has to do with how great parts of Mexico are..
