Driving to Mexico (subtitulos en español)

  • Today we're crossing our first international border while driving the Pan American Highway as we cross in our truck camper from the USA to Mexicali, Mexico. Heading into our first border crossing we were a bit nervous because people tend to hype up the stress that comes with the process, but truthfully, our experience was really positive. The people were friendly (like they almost always are in Mexico!), it went quickly, and we made it through without any hiccups! Lesson learned: have all your paperwork ready to go and show up with a smile!

    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.

    I've been following you since you came to Brazil, two years ago.
    I like your style: soft and elegant (but Sara speaks so fast sometimes that I can't fully understand 🤣).
    I wish you all the best in this intracontinental trip.
    Big adventure!
    I admire your boldness!
    It will be an unforgetable and nice experience, I am sure, entirely proportional to the size and reward of those who dream big.
    Have fun!
    (If there's a chance, do stretch the journey a little bit towards Brazil.
    You will be most welcomed again).

    Wow, so strange!! I hadn’t watched your channel for a while and decided to look for your video on Rio de Janiero because I had remembered that you flew there with your dog and was wondering how you managed getting him on the plane since he is a little bigger. We have a 1 year old poodle puppy that has grown quite a bit - she’s about the size of Kramer.
    And I was thinking as I was looking for you “I wish they would drive in a caravan all the way down the coast of Mexico thru Central America down to Argentina - would love to see that.” And here u are doing it!! - how strange is that? You are very brave to do this!! We travelled up the coast of Australia from Melbourne to Port Douglas in a caravan during the pandemic and then decided to move to Mexico with our 3 dogs in January 2021. We and our dogs were in the caravan for 5 months - and that was long enough as it starts getting claustrophobic. We are interested in possibly flying to Buenos Aires with our small dogs in the future and are living in Puebla Mexico at the moment.
