We're not going to be available this weekend so you're getting this week's video on Thursday instead of Saturday! Until next week's video, check out this playlist of all the videos we've made together: th-cam.com/play/PL_1iJW4YPFcMH9qYICC1ohjgiHqUmJDhv.html
My wife and I thought May was so shy at first, but holy cow - she's really opened up! Such a pleasure to see how comfortable she's gotten making these videos : )
Next step..cover body with tattoos. Just like the woman before her. She is watching tips on being a "you tuber"..all of the waving hands, the big expressions with hands and mouth. Watch her hands..just like they tell nervous people to do in a TH-cam video.😂🤮
I was touched at how she explained the “stages” of expressing love and moving from dating to boyfriend-girlfriend. There was a sweetness about it and it just seems so right.
Mike Wood: You are falling into the Lie TRAP. She is romanticizing Our Latino Culture. The Latino Culture well, I am LATINA; and is Not what She Says. Latino Men don't DO everything She Says. They are Not formal like that when dating; and they would easily Go inside her pants without Asking for permission; without Spending $ Mexican Peso on her!!! In the USA, it's called Rape; but in our Latina Culture; it's expected from Our "men" and WHY do you think there are SO MANY SINGLE MOTHERS in LATIN AMERICA?? Think FOR A MOMENT. Just look at how OUR CULTURE behaves; and then you'll know the REAL TRUTH.
I’m Mexican American and my parents raised me with Mexican customs. I was laughing at the cultural differences you mentioned because they are soooo true!!! Love to see you guys so happy together. Best of luck!!
This is my favorite video so far. So authentic, funny and heartwarming at the same time. It’s great to hear about these cultural differences and watch the two of you laugh about these discoveries.
This was by far the cutest and most endearing video from the entire Tangerine Travels channel. I salute you both Jordan and May for being so candid and open about the nuances of being in a cross cultural relationship and despite all the differences, that love wins! It’s content like this that makes TH-cam worthwhile! Thank you both!
@@lindaroserichardson5383 Oh, but it is about living in Mexico... Do you merely want to exist? Or do you want to truly live? Jordan is living the life of 'Riley and May is also living the life of Ms. 'Riley. Perhaps you'd prefer to live the life of that other person?
Got to admit...............this is one of my favorite videos you guys have published. I love seeing new places in Mexico, but this one is golden. Love seeing May come out of her shell.
Okay, I am from the US and I totally agree with May on the “no feeding pets with the same dishes that we eat from , also no, I do not return items unless they are shipped and are broken or damaged upon receipt.
Oh my gosh!!! Maya described all the weird things my husband do, and there is still so many things that you need to know, like parties only lasts until certain hour, but us Mexicans we party until next day 😆,,, or they eat ice cream with fudge, marshmallows, candies, m&m, sprinkles, and every sweet you can imagine, and if you haven’t try those licorice or red vines candies? People love them here in the USA but they taste like plastic 😵💫 There are so many cultural differences, but my husband and I always find balance after 16 years of marriage 🙎🏼♂️❤️🙍🏽♀️
This video is so funny and interesting. My wife was born in Guadalajara and raised in Nayarit. There is so much that I relate to with the cultural differences and the experiences we went through. However, we are still married and together after 45 years.
My husband is Mexican and we have had some of these same cultural differences… a good compromise with the shoes in the house is to have a pair of house shoes or sandals that are only worn in the house 💕
For us, things depend on where we live. When we lived in Mexico we ate the main meal at 2pm and wore huaraches in the apartment. Here in the US we don't wear shoes in the apartment and eat dinner at 6pm. I just found out his true opinion of lemons though! lol
@@janjimgar918 You are correct. Mexico is diverse because of Spanish conquistadores 1531, then France invaded Mexico around mid 1800’s, Mormones went to Mexico when US government persecuted them. There are Chinese, Arab, black immigrants, you name it! Unfortunately many Americans think Mexicans are all brown and short
This was such a cute and funny video, I really enjoyed it and saw it twice. I am Mexican by birth and grew up in the US and seeing the culture shocks in you guys have made me realize how both cultures are a part of me now.
You guys, I literally burst out laughing when Jordon spit out his water the first time! This was such a great video. I also could relate being married to a Mexican and being an American. Your videos keep getting better and better. Also, we all love May.
Very interesting and useful. I live in Ecuador as a foreigner from Canada and I can relate a lot with you guy. I litterally live barefoot and my cats always finish my plates. I learnt a lot about LATAM culture in this video.
I am the same as you. My MIL stir her dog’s food with a folk or spoon that we use to eat. 😱. I love my two dogs and her dog too. But sharing dishes and silverware with them is a NO!!!!
Fantastic Video, really enjoyed it. I can relate when I met Rosie, my Mexican wife, for the first time and we started dating before we married and moved to Mexico full time.
I enjoy watching and hearing about other international couples talk about their learning experiences when the two cultures collide in a relationship. I married my beautiful wife who is from Mexico City almost three years ago. I love her dearly, and she's the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life. It's definitely a learning experience. I think it helps a lot when both couples can communicate well with each other in at least one language. Unfortunately, when my wife and I got together, she hardly could speak English, and I was still at a low intermediate level in Spanish. So, that made things difficult, trying to understand each other and understand cultural differences on top of that. Luckily, if you have a lot of patience, love, respect, and a desire to understand, that's all you need to have a healthy relationship. I enjoyed the video.
Excellent video!! One of the best ever!!🎉🎉 Learning more USA/ Mexican culture could help us all. Jordon, take Mai to Minnesota in January to teach her ICE FISHING ETIQUETTE 😂😂😂😂
These videos are above & beyond anything you recorded a couple years ago. I am enjoying both of you so very much! Your’e both respectful of each other when talking.
Love this video. Working through cultural differences with LOVE is awesome to see. I had to do it myself....been married almost 30 years. I wish you both the best!!
Very informative. I enjoyed learning about the cultural differences that have surfaced during the development of your relationship. And your ending (rock, paper, scissors) was one the funniest I've ever seen. Congratulations of finding each other.
THE BEST BAR NONE!!! LMAO! The initial cross-cultural (or idiosyncrasies) discovery about each other we all can relate to! You DEFINITELY need to do a PART 2 reverse Pet Peeves! I’m Asian-Am and have a cognitive dissonance about shoes in house! I tell people, “after people walk their shoes onto public toilet floors, would you feel comfortable laying on your carpet/rugs?” Common People! Excellente! You’re on a roll guys!
Wow, one of the most entertaining videos! I love hearing both perspectives and it was not at all dull at any point. It kept me engaged through the entire video! Loved this one, great chemistry you two!
I am glad May and Jordan have found joy and happiness together in Mexico. I am Mexican American having lived near Los Angeles for 55 years. Grew up listening to the Beatles and Elvis. Drifted away from my Mexican roots over the years and was raised speaking English. Met a real Latina who became my wife 20 years ago. Became reacquainted with my Mexican roots. Many vacations throughout Mexico home of my parents and grandparents. Enjoyed Mexico’s culture, food and music. Enjoyed listening to Pedro Infante, Joan Sebastian and Senora Dimanita. My wife changed my life from normal to amazing. Hoy hablamos espanol, bailamos cumbias y comer caldos de 7 mares. Como Mexico no ay dos.
Now this is adorable. Dating beyond borders 101. 😂😂😂 I agree with Jordan on many cultural aspects except for the dog eating from the same plate as we do. If I did that my girlfriend would act like a can of Pepsi does when you shake it up. 🤣🤣🤣
My first impression of this video v.s. the original FIRST videos made together-impressions was/is: "Oh no. No. Not that. Not this. Getting a "sinking feeling" here now." 🤐🤔🤨😒 Will see how it all plays out, longer term.
Now you gotta do the “Weird things my Mexican girlfriend does” video. I can mention so many being married to a Mexican. The ketchup on the pizza and the chile and lime or salsa on everything. Those are just 2 of the many things I found weird at the beginning. 😂
May is so natural on screen. She’s wonderful for Tangerine Dream! aaahhh..and of course wonderful for your life, Jordan! Enjoy every moment..life goes fast. Oh and everything DOES taste better with butter.
THIS THIS THIS is it! I NEVER re-watch videos and I have this one. I loved to see May come out of her shell. She is so expressive and beautiful =) The way you guys are so flexible and gracious with each other is a beautiful, rare thing. I think this could be a new type of video where you discuss and explore the complications of an American Mexican relationship. I loved "and then I died!" HYSTERICAL. Does May cook? I wood love to see a video of her filling that fridge with REAL salsa not that trashy stuff =) Stay cool guys =)
Jordan & May!!! That was the best video you guys have done together because it really shows everything you both went thru to be together and highlighted the different cultures which is very important! Muchos Gracias!! Wish you both the best and looking forward to the next video! Salud!!
You guys are so funny, I loved this video! 🤣 Hearing the differences in the two cultures, they sound like small things, but they can make a big impact on the other person.
Tacky Midwestern cultures vs Upper Middle class conservative Mexican culture…. Typical! Props to Jordan for immersing into Mexican culture. You finally stopped being a tourist. Still a culture that eats corn and puts lemons on their tacos… not for me. My tacos are lemon free. Great video! Great find, Jordan. Now that’s marriage material.
Fun video! Jordan, I totally understand wearing shorts all the time. Dress code here in Hawaii: casual...shorts and t-shirt; dressy...shorts and aloha shirt; dressy...aloha shirt and long pants. I haven't had long pants on since 2019!
I love this video! It's fascinating to learn about the cultural differences. I didn't know about the ' no returns' thing. And that is good to know about lemons and limones. And to use fresh salsa.
Hey guys! I really liked this video!!! I laughed a lot 😂😂😂 Yo también dije: y quién le pone limón amarillo y salsa Cholula a los tacos??? That is a crime!!! 😂😂😂😂 Y en México!!! OMG!!!👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️
My Latina wife introduced me to lemons and limes. We use lemons at home for teas and daily fresh lemon juice. Limes are used in daily dishes and for disinfecting poultry. Lime juice is added to guacamole, salads, tacos, flautas, sopas, fresh fish and cold cerveza. Limes also add additional flavor to most seafoods, especially ceviche. Favorite dessert, lemon meringue.
I grew up in California and my family culture was most like May’s except we all left home at 18 and we enjoyed pancakes with butter topped with bacon, eggs and topped with real maple syrup. Our daughter lived at home with us along with her boyfriend until she was 27 after they had finished college and were married. Now that we are older, she is selling her house and buying a house with room for us to live with them. It’s not common here in the US but we are very close and I think after living with us when they were younger, it makes sense for our family. AND WE NEVER LET THE ANIMALS EAT OFF OF OUR DISHES! GROSS.
I am Mexican but i have been married to a white boy for over 25 years and he still does things that surprise me. His top mistake was when he tried to eat tamales with the husk still on...lol. My white boy loves the culture so much we plan to retire in Mexico. Great video..keep them coming.
What fun! There are so many small things I have always loved about Mexican culture. Too many people travel or even live in another country and don't make an effort to learn the different ways of doing things. Lots to appreciate.
Thanks for this totally enjoyable and humorous video. You guys are so cute together. I remember hearing a funny story about how to get rid of an unwanted guest who doesn't get the hint that they have "overstayed" their welcome. After finishing your meal, make a point of letting your dog "lap the dishes clean" and then clearly let your "unwanted guest" observe you as you put the "freshly cleaned" dishes directly into your cupboards!😱🤣. This is guaranteed to get your "guest" to pack up and leave immediately. If it doesn't work you have got a serious problem. 🤣🤣🤣
LOL Team May on sitting at the table, talking, and enjoying the meal. Older generations used to hang out for a long time telling stories and talking after a meal...even playing cards or something after the meal. So happy May's personality is emerging now! : )
This video rocked! Very enjoyable and funny in a good way. We are getting to know May and Mexican culture better. I did not realize how American I am. LOL. Btw, I also put butter on pancakes, waffles, bread, rolls etc. I love an American breakfast out of scrambled eggs, pancake and bacon all on the same plate. I like to take a bite of sweet and then one of salty. Also love real maple syrup but I have to say I do not like it too much on my egg. Great video. Keep them coming.
Hey there Jordan your new lady is making you glow and your looking younger nowand days, looking like Babyface. It's all with good intentions brotha. Keep up the great content. Keep flowing with the greatness. Your girl is keeping you young. 👍🙂
Wow! With this video you got me hooked again. This is your best ever. It really shows how much you guys like each other and May’s great personality comes out. She is so adorable and I can see that love in your eyes for her which is so inspiring. I will share this with some couples I know that are gringo and Mexican or Venezuelan to see if they can relate. Thanks again - this vid made me smile so much!
I'm from the U.S. but hearing Maya talk about Mexican habits has me thinking..."That makes more sense actually. Why aren't Americans doing this?" Except the shoe thing. I have separate pairs of shoes for outside the house and pairs for inside the house. I also have a pair of shower sandals that I only use when I travel.
May reminded me of when I used to work at an insurance co many moons ago and our Hispanic clients would bring their whole family of 10 just to make a monthly payment. I mean.., that's where the census bearou needed to be!😆
I loved Tangerine Travels from the beginning, then you broke up and I was conflicted. Then Mai came in, and at first, I was as apprehensive as she was. I understand her reactions and "HER" conflictions. I am Mexican American, and I was in boarding school for 3 years In Mexico City you can speak the language and still not get it. I'm beginning to like you Mai, Con Carinio.... I love the respect and traditions that Mexicans have. It's beautiful. quiero regresar... I'm loving Mai after this video, she was open and more herself.
Really loved this video. First, really interesting to me from a language learning perspective! I knew that one could say either "te quiero" or "te amo" to express love but I never realized that there was a subtle nuance between the two in terms of the type or depth of love. This reminds me of something that I didn't know for quite some time when I began learning Spanish, and that was the difference between using "caer" versus "gustar" when expressing that you like someone or they like you. Also funny... the differences in the time to eat. When I was in Spain for about 6 weeks earlier this year, it didn't take me long to change up my eating habits to be more in line with theirs, because in many places the restaurants and shops are simply closed during siesta time in the afternoon, which can range from between 1:30 or 2:00 pm until 5:00 p.m. so you kinda have to adjust or starve.😊
I agree with Jordan more✨🙌🏻 because I grew up in the US but I'm Mexican and currently living in CDMX🇲🇽. I laughed 😂so hard at the "Sobremesa" part, it is much better to hurry up and eat and have the "SobreMesa" in the living room, instead of the hard chairs at the Dinner table.
Lmao....Jordan I can so relate... a girlfriend had to straighten me out as well and point me in the right direction ...especially clothes but eating as well.
What do you think of this one May... First time walking down the street together and "he" walks on the "inside of the sidewalk". I was so offended!!! LOL… In Mexico, girls must walk on the inside of the sidewalk and men on the outside of the sidewalk. Right? LOL!!!
I found myself agreeing with May on several subjects. I was born and raised in US in the 60s by Mexican raised parents (although dad was also ½ Italian). Very conservative folks. I believe that led to positive lifestyle for myself and my own family. Although I love the US I don't like the constant push toward liberalism bcs it has led friends toward toxic lifestyles. And good for May... I agree, the US has blurred the "we're exclusive part" and it leads to much confusion and unhappiness especially for girls. In US women are constantly pushed to be liberal types... which really just devalues us as a person. (Easy come easy go...don't do it ladies...hold off!)
I’m a liberal, US Born, married to an American. Both parents very conservative. I am the bread winner, husband does not work due to illness. The old customs in my experience, Women were not allowed to drive, not allowed to work and then the men just go around cheating and the women are supposed to be all obeying. You want to know why women become liberal because Men no longer are the gentleman men the mothers raised. Mexican Women are fed up with this conservative culture. I still respect my parents religious views but I can’t respect when a priest tells a women in Mexico to stay married to a cheater or beater.
@@gladysnajar2254 @Gladys Najar I'm sorry you have an ill husband and you have to be the main bread winner especially if he's not contributing in some way at home. The Bible tells us to be equally yoked. (It's why Christians recommend counseling before marriage...it helps point out character flaws and weeds out bad matches...such as cheaters). Unfortunately, love and attraction are not always enough past the honeymoon phase. Re liberalism, you are generalizing that all men are cheater...there are plenty of women who are cheaters too. I agree men and women deserve equal rights but women should not behave like men...to avoid getting used then be hateful toward all men. Unfortunately, when God was taken out of classroom morals went down the toilet...in both men and women (especially those without any Godley influences in the family). That's why we see so much dysfunctional lives. Personally, I would never stay or suggest that a woman stay with a man who cheats or beats her. I know I won't. Perhaps Catholic priest tell women to stay in such conditions...but being a Christian I go by the Bible not individuals. (The new Testament does permit divorce). I hope those women choose better men next time but studies show abused women choose abusive men types over and over. Lastly, liberalism is a losing ideology. Most of the Christian world is abandoning it bcs it's anti God, anti family, anti children, too close to communism (nobody wants to be controlled), it calls for no boundaries, consentual life styles, yet denies privacy and reject any opposing opinions. Sure doesn't sound appealing to me!
@Fauci is-a-liar The only bitter folks I know are liberals. They make life choices based on emotion not common sense and when things don't add up they get upset.
This has been my absolute favorite video you have made. Thank you for the laughs. I am currently living in Taxco Guerrero, and I have already experienced some of these cultural differences. Ps, you two have incredible chemistry.
This was by far most insightful video to ever come out on this channel that I have seen, and I must have seen most of your videos. Bravo, and thanks! I always wondered about the shoes inside the home thing. Living in cold countries like Canada and Russia, you definitely do not want to track mud and snow into anyone's home, taking shoes off is a must. And here we also have the same thing about avoiding freezing your feet (and catching a cold or worse) by changing into house slippers when we get home, and maybe bringing a pair of clean indoor shoes when we visit someone else's home and want to be fancy. I gotta say, though, letting pets eat out of human dishes is a HUGE no-no, and not just in Mexico. And there is a solid medical reason for keeping these things COMPLETELY separate, including the dish rags: there is a number of parasites and pathogens that dogs' and cats' systems can handle fine and are accustomed to, but human system is not.
Mai is adorable, it is kind of hard to believe that she is in her early 30's and not married already! You are a lucky man and you both together are very compatible and we can see the love growing between you two! Congrats on a bright future together.
My comment was directed to Mai being so wonderful, that you could assume she'd have lot's of men after her affection. As for you being in your thirties and not married, I have no opinion.
We were just talking about the eating schedule with our Mexican daughter in law just yesterday. Awesome video guys, so many excellent cultural points of view.
Wow todo lo que dijo May es verdad con todo me sentí muy identificada me alegra mucho ver que may le enseñé a Jordan nuestra cultura y costumbres me encanto este video
Tuve la misma experiencia cuando me casé con mi esposa mexicana. Hay unas diferencias culturales. No son grandes, pero diferentes. Aprendí mucho, y aún estoy aprendiendo todo el tiempo. Lo más importante es el amor. Si los dos tienen bastante respecto y el amor para el uno con el otro, es todo que necesita una persona.
@@stephenwrouton Muy Exigentes con los hombres Extrajenros; pero Sus propios hombres las tratan como Mier da, porque NO las Respetan; las tratan como Mier da; pero Cuando estan con un Extranjero les EXIGEN lo que NO pueden hacer con Sus propios hombrecitos mexicanos que NO les hacen Caso. JA, JA, JA.
I can’t even imagine how you two are staying so calm early on in the video with all that thunder going on. I’d be hightailing it inside until it passes then I would resume the video.
Just wanted to say that May I think is her name is a very beautiful woman and you sir are a very lucky guy, treat her right and don't take her for granted and you'll have an amazing woman there :)

OMG, Jordan You have a Gem of a traditional Mexican woman.
They "reside" together ({IN}) Mexico ... Not so "'TRADITIONAL"'
Moral values are different.
Be careful because marriage is for Gringos like a picnic.
That is very true
My wife is so cute and exactly the same way 🎉🎉 Happy Valentines Luv 😊
I'm American Catholic and want to find a traditional Mexican wife but most of the girls I have met are not like this at all. How can you find one?
Okay, I am from the US and I totally agree with May on the “no feeding pets with the same dishes that we eat from , also no, I do not return items unless they are shipped and are broken or damaged upon receipt.
Agreed, we gave my dog leftovers growing up on a different plate.
Jordan and Maya...Love you both!! Excellent vid!!! I agree with Maya on the Laska eating from the dishes. Thats a definite NO.
Oh my gosh!!! Maya described all the weird things my husband do, and there is still so many things that you need to know, like parties only lasts until certain hour, but us Mexicans we party until next day 😆,,, or they eat ice cream with fudge, marshmallows, candies, m&m, sprinkles, and every sweet you can imagine, and if you haven’t try those licorice or red vines candies? People love them here in the USA but they taste like plastic 😵💫
There are so many cultural differences, but my husband and I always find balance after 16 years of marriage 🙎🏼♂️❤️🙍🏽♀️
I remember trying to get our friends in Mexico to try an ice cream float, they thought I was crazy!
We're LOVING this! My Wife and I are laughing our butts off!
This video is so funny and interesting. My wife was born in Guadalajara and raised in Nayarit. There is so much that I relate to with the cultural differences and the experiences we went through. However, we are still married and together after 45 years.
Congratulations on 45 years together. I know someone who just celebrated 50 yrs together.
Omg May made me laugh so much! It's so nice to see you both trying to find the common ground and also bring forgiving of each other. 💕
❤️

Very interesting and useful. I live in Ecuador as a foreigner from Canada and I can relate a lot with you guy. I litterally live barefoot and my cats always finish my plates. I learnt a lot about LATAM culture in this video.
I agree with May, I love my puppers but they DO NOT eat from my dishes!😳
I am the same as you. My MIL stir her dog’s food with a folk or spoon that we use to eat. 😱. I love my two dogs and her dog too. But sharing dishes and silverware with them is a NO!!!!
I find that disgusting as well
My frenchies are the pre-rinse for my dishwasher
Fantastic Video, really enjoyed it. I can relate when I met Rosie, my Mexican wife, for the first time and we started dating before we married and moved to Mexico full time.
This was great, I haven't laughed so hard in a long time - all the unspoken cultural differences you learn very quickly cause there's no choice!
Haha! It's also entertaining 😁
I enjoy watching and hearing about other international couples talk about their learning experiences when the two cultures collide in a relationship. I married my beautiful wife who is from Mexico City almost three years ago. I love her dearly, and she's the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life. It's definitely a learning experience. I think it helps a lot when both couples can communicate well with each other in at least one language. Unfortunately, when my wife and I got together, she hardly could speak English, and I was still at a low intermediate level in Spanish. So, that made things difficult, trying to understand each other and understand cultural differences on top of that. Luckily, if you have a lot of patience, love, respect, and a desire to understand, that's all you need to have a healthy relationship. I enjoyed the video.
I was in shock Maya is 31 😲 All this time I thought she was 25 ...she is beautiful, witty and funny ....A keeper for sure 😊
I love her personality. She is so educated and sweet
Excellent video!! One of the best ever!!🎉🎉 Learning more USA/ Mexican culture could help us all. Jordon, take Mai to Minnesota in January to teach her ICE FISHING ETIQUETTE 😂😂😂😂
These videos are above & beyond anything you recorded a couple years ago. I am enjoying both of you so very much! Your’e both respectful of each other when talking.
Love this video. Working through cultural differences with LOVE is awesome to see. I had to do it myself....been married almost 30 years. I wish you both the best!!
Very informative. I enjoyed learning about the cultural differences that have surfaced during the development of your relationship. And your ending (rock, paper, scissors) was one the funniest I've ever seen. Congratulations of finding each other.
THE BEST BAR NONE!!! LMAO! The initial cross-cultural (or idiosyncrasies) discovery about each other we all can relate to! You DEFINITELY need to do a PART 2 reverse Pet Peeves!
I’m Asian-Am and have a cognitive dissonance about shoes in house! I tell people, “after people walk their shoes onto public toilet floors, would you feel comfortable laying on your carpet/rugs?” Common People!
Excellente! You’re on a roll guys!
I agree on shoes i even have sprayed me with lysol my house is clean the outside world..not so much.
I laughed so hard. You guys are made for each other.
Wow, one of the most entertaining videos! I love hearing both perspectives and it was not at all dull at any point. It kept me engaged through the entire video! Loved this one, great chemistry you two!
Guys,this is sweetest video! You are born for each another.I am 87 years signora who wish you everything best of this world.
I am glad May and Jordan have found joy and happiness together in Mexico. I am Mexican American having lived near Los Angeles for 55 years. Grew up listening to the Beatles and Elvis. Drifted away from my Mexican roots over the years and was raised speaking English. Met a real Latina who became my wife 20 years ago. Became reacquainted with my Mexican roots. Many vacations throughout Mexico home of my parents and grandparents. Enjoyed Mexico’s culture, food and music. Enjoyed listening to Pedro Infante, Joan Sebastian and Senora Dimanita. My wife changed my life from normal to amazing. Hoy hablamos espanol, bailamos cumbias y comer caldos de 7 mares. Como Mexico no ay dos.
Fun fact most of the modern Mexican music isn’t really Mexican. It’s German. At least most of the instruments are really German rooted.
Now this is adorable. Dating beyond borders 101. 😂😂😂 I agree with Jordan on many cultural aspects except for the dog eating from the same plate as we do. If I did that my girlfriend would act like a can of Pepsi does when you shake it up. 🤣🤣🤣
You should both have a "how to" make home made salsa recipe video!
My first impression of this video v.s. the original FIRST videos made together-impressions was/is:
"Oh no. No. Not that. Not this. Getting a "sinking feeling" here now." 🤐🤔🤨😒
Will see how it all plays out, longer term.
You guys are so cute together. I am learning a lot about the Mexican culture and food and I'm loving it.
Enjoy the food!! 🥰🥰🥰
Good,it's good to be knowledgeable about other culture's Never stop learning!!
I am a 70 y/o who is back in the dating scene after my wife dies a few months ago. I am as awkward as anyone, but love is love.
Hearing May talk about the Mexican culture makes me remember how proud I am to be a Mexican
You guys are great and have an amazing culture.
@@ChannelOwnersASMR thank you that is very nice of you
@@ChannelOwnersASMR Wow we almost never hear that, most people only insult us thank you for that it made me so happy.
What part of Mexico where you born in?
@@thepatriot9969 guadalajara
Now you gotta do the “Weird things my Mexican girlfriend does” video. I can mention so many being married to a Mexican. The ketchup on the pizza and the chile and lime or salsa on everything. Those are just 2 of the many things I found weird at the beginning. 😂
@@jesusguerrero439 I always understood it as Pitsa! 😁
This is a great idea.
It's the lime everything for me , now I luv lime in it's right place , but lime juice lime tea , lime salsa
Ketchup is a thing in pizza in China and Korea too. I don't get it 🤷🏽♀️
A mí también se me hace raro que le pongan ketchup a la pizza! Porque? Nooo, eso es un crimen 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
May is so natural on screen. She’s wonderful for Tangerine Dream! aaahhh..and of course wonderful for your life, Jordan! Enjoy every moment..life goes fast. Oh and everything DOES taste better with butter.
Tangerine Dream is a band XD a very good one btw, but this is Tangerine Travels 😁
THIS THIS THIS is it! I NEVER re-watch videos and I have this one. I loved to see May come out of her shell. She is so expressive and beautiful =) The way you guys are so flexible and gracious with each other is a beautiful, rare thing. I think this could be a new type of video where you discuss and explore the complications of an American Mexican relationship. I loved "and then I died!" HYSTERICAL. Does May cook? I wood love to see a video of her filling that fridge with REAL salsa not that trashy stuff =) Stay cool guys =)
Jordan & May!!! That was the best video you guys have done together because it really shows everything you both went thru to be together and highlighted the different cultures which is very important! Muchos Gracias!! Wish you both the best and looking forward to the next video! Salud!!
You guys are so funny, I loved this video! 🤣 Hearing the differences in the two cultures, they sound like small things, but they can make a big impact on the other person.
Tacky Midwestern cultures vs Upper Middle class conservative Mexican culture…. Typical! Props to Jordan for immersing into Mexican culture. You finally stopped being a tourist. Still a culture that eats corn and puts lemons on their tacos… not for me. My tacos are lemon free. Great video! Great find, Jordan. Now that’s marriage material.
That was the best video in the entire history of Tangerine Travels! It was interesting, funny and endearing. And you both look happy and healthy!
Your best video yet. May is such a natural.
I absolutely love Mai, she’s beautiful, humble, and intelligent ☺️
Fun video! Jordan, I totally understand wearing shorts all the time. Dress code here in Hawaii: casual...shorts and t-shirt; dressy...shorts and aloha shirt; dressy...aloha shirt and long pants. I haven't had long pants on since 2019!
Dude upgraded big time , Right on man !
I love this video! It's fascinating to learn about the cultural differences. I didn't know about the ' no returns' thing. And that is good to know about lemons and limones. And to use fresh salsa.
Yeah, I bought a t-shirt in a nice shop in Vallarta and they wouldn't take it back with a receipt.
Hey guys!
I really liked this video!!!
I laughed a lot 😂😂😂
Yo también dije: y quién le pone limón amarillo y salsa Cholula a los tacos???
That is a crime!!!
😂😂😂😂 Y en México!!!
OMG!!!👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️
🤣😂🤣
Lol the part where the grandmother would say if you walk barefoot that you will get sick reminds me of my childhood lol.
May is really getting good at being in front of the camera. She's a great TH-camr!
That was awesome! I live in Mexico and these perspectives are invaluable
My Latina wife introduced me to lemons and limes. We use lemons at home for teas and daily fresh lemon juice. Limes are used in daily dishes and for disinfecting poultry. Lime juice is added to guacamole, salads, tacos, flautas, sopas, fresh fish and cold cerveza. Limes also add additional flavor to most seafoods, especially ceviche. Favorite dessert, lemon meringue.
I grew up in California and my family culture was most like May’s except we all left home at 18 and we enjoyed pancakes with butter topped with bacon, eggs and topped with real maple syrup. Our daughter lived at home with us along with her boyfriend until she was 27 after they had finished college and were married. Now that we are older, she is selling her house and buying a house with room for us to live with them. It’s not common here in the US but we are very close and I think after living with us when they were younger, it makes sense for our family. AND WE NEVER LET THE ANIMALS EAT OFF OF OUR DISHES! GROSS.
I am Mexican but i have been married to a white boy for over 25 years and he still does things that surprise me. His top mistake was when he tried to eat tamales with the husk still on...lol. My white boy loves the culture so much we plan to retire in Mexico. Great video..keep them coming.
😆😆😆
Hahaha, I thought everyone knew to take the husks of tamales! But then again, I grew up in Texas.
\\\\
You should've let him eat a bit of the oja 😂🎉
I'm Mexican and have never used sandals in the shower in my life. Weird. Public showers yes, at home no.
Yo he usado sandalias para bañarme toda mi vida, tengo 55.
What fun! There are so many small things I have always loved about Mexican culture. Too many people travel or even live in another country and don't make an effort to learn the different ways of doing things. Lots to appreciate.
Thanks for this totally enjoyable and humorous video. You guys are so cute together. I remember hearing a funny story about how to get rid of an unwanted guest who doesn't get the hint that they have "overstayed" their welcome. After finishing your meal, make a point of letting your dog "lap the dishes clean" and then clearly let your "unwanted guest" observe you as you put the "freshly cleaned" dishes directly into your cupboards!😱🤣. This is guaranteed to get your "guest" to pack up and leave immediately. If it doesn't work you have got a serious problem. 🤣🤣🤣
LOL Team May on sitting at the table, talking, and enjoying the meal. Older generations used to hang out for a long time telling stories and talking after a meal...even playing cards or something after the meal. So happy May's personality is emerging now! : )
Loved the video. And I can feel that love is in the air in your relationship.
This video rocked! Very enjoyable and funny in a good way. We are getting to know May and Mexican culture better. I did not realize how American I am. LOL. Btw, I also put butter on pancakes, waffles, bread, rolls etc. I love an American breakfast out of scrambled eggs, pancake and bacon all on the same plate. I like to take a bite of sweet and then one of salty. Also love real maple syrup but I have to say I do not like it too much on my egg. Great video. Keep them coming.
Loving the videos of you both together and so funny!
Hilarious! Thanks for sharing Jordan and May. Really interesting to learn about some of these cultural differences.
Hey there Jordan your new lady is making you glow and your looking younger nowand days, looking like Babyface. It's all with good intentions brotha. Keep up the great content. Keep flowing with the greatness. Your girl is keeping you young. 👍🙂
Wow! With this video you got me hooked again. This is your best ever. It really shows how much you guys like each other and May’s great personality comes out. She is so adorable and I can see that love in your eyes for her which is so inspiring. I will share this with some couples I know that are gringo and Mexican or Venezuelan to see if they can relate. Thanks again - this vid made me smile so much!
I'm from the U.S. but hearing Maya talk about Mexican habits has me thinking..."That makes more sense actually. Why aren't Americans doing this?" Except the shoe thing. I have separate pairs of shoes for outside the house and pairs for inside the house. I also have a pair of shower sandals that I only use when I travel.
May is a very classy lady. And I can see the love in Jordan's eyes. Adorable couple, adorable video.
Favorite video ever!!! May is pretty funny! And the tortillas… lol‼️
May reminded me of when I used to work at an insurance co many moons ago and our Hispanic clients would bring their whole family of 10 just to make a monthly payment. I mean.., that's where the census bearou needed to be!😆
I loved Tangerine Travels from the beginning, then you broke up and I was conflicted. Then Mai came in, and at first, I was as apprehensive as she was. I understand her reactions and "HER" conflictions. I am Mexican American, and I was in boarding school for 3 years In Mexico City you can speak the language and still not get it. I'm beginning to like you Mai, Con Carinio.... I love the respect and traditions that Mexicans have. It's beautiful. quiero regresar... I'm loving Mai after this video, she was open and more herself.
*** Oh yea, Atun = Tuna, Limes = limones, Lemons = limas... I like you better Jordan because of Mai. Buena Mujer
May def grows on you..imo ❤️
Having lived in Mexico for 15 years i find all these conversations entertaining as I've been through all of this.
Quite a telenovela
Three years in boarding school in CDMX ? Benemérito ?
Jordan your giant and ever-present smile and laughter throughout this video was a nice change. Great to see you happy and in love with each other.
This video was more funny than I've expect 😂😅
Really loved this video. First, really interesting to me from a language learning perspective! I knew that one could say either "te quiero" or "te amo" to express love but I never realized that there was a subtle nuance between the two in terms of the type or depth of love. This reminds me of something that I didn't know for quite some time when I began learning Spanish, and that was the difference between using "caer" versus "gustar" when expressing that you like someone or they like you. Also funny... the differences in the time to eat. When I was in Spain for about 6 weeks earlier this year, it didn't take me long to change up my eating habits to be more in line with theirs, because in many places the restaurants and shops are simply closed during siesta time in the afternoon, which can range from between 1:30 or 2:00 pm until 5:00 p.m. so you kinda have to adjust or starve.😊
The best video so far! You guys are Sooooo cute together and that tortilla challenge at the end made me laugh so much.
I agree with Jordan more✨🙌🏻 because I grew up in the US but I'm Mexican and currently living in CDMX🇲🇽. I laughed 😂so hard at the "Sobremesa" part, it is much better to hurry up and eat and have the "SobreMesa" in the living room, instead of the hard chairs at the Dinner table.
Lmao....Jordan I can so relate... a girlfriend had to straighten me out as well and point me in the right direction ...especially clothes but eating as well.
What do you think of this one May... First time walking down the street together and "he" walks on the "inside of the sidewalk". I was so offended!!! LOL… In Mexico, girls must walk on the inside of the sidewalk and men on the outside of the sidewalk. Right? LOL!!!
I just loved this video, I laughed so hard! I'm a big fan. Keep it up! I'm so glad you can laugh at the cultural differences.
I found myself agreeing with May on several subjects. I was born and raised in US in the 60s by Mexican raised parents (although dad was also ½ Italian). Very conservative folks. I believe that led to positive lifestyle for myself and my own family. Although I love the US I don't like the constant push toward liberalism bcs it has led friends toward toxic lifestyles. And good for May... I agree, the US has blurred the "we're exclusive part" and it leads to much confusion and unhappiness especially for girls. In US women are constantly pushed to be liberal types... which really just devalues us as a person. (Easy come easy go...don't do it ladies...hold off!)
I’m a liberal, US Born, married to an American. Both parents very conservative. I am the bread winner, husband does not work due to illness. The old customs in my experience, Women were not allowed to drive, not allowed to work and then the men just go around cheating and the women are supposed to be all obeying. You want to know why women become liberal because Men no longer are the gentleman men the mothers raised. Mexican Women are fed up with this conservative culture. I still respect my parents religious views but I can’t respect when a priest tells a women in Mexico to stay married to a cheater or beater.
@@gladysnajar2254 Totally agree!
@@gladysnajar2254 @Gladys Najar I'm sorry you have an ill husband and you have to be the main bread winner especially if he's not contributing in some way at home. The Bible tells us to be equally yoked. (It's why Christians recommend counseling before marriage...it helps point out character flaws and weeds out bad matches...such as cheaters). Unfortunately, love and attraction are not always enough past the honeymoon phase.
Re liberalism, you are generalizing that all men are cheater...there are plenty of women who are cheaters too. I agree men and women deserve equal rights but women should not behave like men...to avoid getting used then be hateful toward all men.
Unfortunately, when God was taken out of classroom morals went down the toilet...in both men and women (especially those without any Godley influences in the family). That's why we see so much dysfunctional lives.
Personally, I would never stay or suggest that a woman stay with a man who cheats or beats her. I know I won't. Perhaps Catholic priest tell women to stay in such conditions...but being a Christian I go by the Bible not individuals. (The new Testament does permit divorce). I hope those women choose better men next time but studies show abused women choose abusive men types over and over.
Lastly, liberalism is a losing ideology. Most of the Christian world is abandoning it bcs it's anti God, anti family, anti children, too close to communism (nobody wants to be controlled), it calls for no boundaries, consentual life styles, yet denies privacy and reject any opposing opinions. Sure doesn't sound appealing to me!
@Fauci is-a-liar The only bitter folks I know are liberals. They make life choices based on emotion not common sense and when things don't add up they get upset.
Ayyy que linda May! I agree the dog needs its own bowl. 😂
After 9 months in Mexico….. I am finally on Mexican meal time! It’s funny. It took me a while to understand. Love you two together 💕
Most countries have totally different meal times that what is standard in the USA I learned that many many years ago
5-6 maybe 7 is fine 8 and up is way to late 😂
This has been my absolute favorite video you have made. Thank you for the laughs. I am currently living in Taxco Guerrero, and I have already experienced some of these cultural differences. Ps, you two have incredible chemistry.
This was by far most insightful video to ever come out on this channel that I have seen, and I must have seen most of your videos. Bravo, and thanks! I always wondered about the shoes inside the home thing. Living in cold countries like Canada and Russia, you definitely do not want to track mud and snow into anyone's home, taking shoes off is a must. And here we also have the same thing about avoiding freezing your feet (and catching a cold or worse) by changing into house slippers when we get home, and maybe bringing a pair of clean indoor shoes when we visit someone else's home and want to be fancy.
I gotta say, though, letting pets eat out of human dishes is a HUGE no-no, and not just in Mexico. And there is a solid medical reason for keeping these things COMPLETELY separate, including the dish rags: there is a number of parasites and pathogens that dogs' and cats' systems can handle fine and are accustomed to, but human system is not.
Made my day ;) so fun to watch you guys having fun together. Viva Mexico baby!
This was so funny, I really enjoyed it! Please keep going!
Mai is adorable, it is kind of hard to believe that she is in her early 30's and not married already! You are a lucky man and you both together are very compatible and we can see the love growing between you two! Congrats on a bright future together.
?
I'm 34 not married .. what's the issue with that
@@20maxilo there's nothing wrong with that, but in México it's normal that women get marry on their 20s
My comment was directed to Mai being so wonderful, that you could assume she'd have lot's of men after her affection. As for you being in your thirties and not married, I have no opinion.
I don't no but everyone thinks they are such a cute couple. I don't see it but it's none of my business.
We were just talking about the eating schedule with our Mexican daughter in law just yesterday. Awesome video guys, so many excellent cultural points of view.
Wow todo lo que dijo May es verdad con todo me sentí muy identificada me alegra mucho ver que may le enseñé a Jordan nuestra cultura y costumbres me encanto este video
Tuve la misma experiencia cuando me casé con mi esposa mexicana. Hay unas diferencias culturales. No son grandes, pero diferentes. Aprendí mucho, y aún estoy aprendiendo todo el tiempo. Lo más importante es el amor. Si los dos tienen bastante respecto y el amor para el uno con el otro, es todo que necesita una persona.
Si, la tipica Mexicana; MUY EXIGENTE con lo que Ustedes NO reciben de sus propios "hombrecitos" ja, Ja, Ja, Ja, ja.
@@stephenwrouton Muy Exigentes con los hombres Extrajenros; pero Sus propios hombres las tratan como Mier da, porque NO las Respetan; las tratan como Mier da; pero Cuando estan con un Extranjero les EXIGEN lo que NO pueden hacer con Sus propios hombrecitos mexicanos que NO les hacen Caso. JA, JA, JA.
I can’t even imagine how you two are staying so calm early on in the video with all that thunder going on. I’d be hightailing it inside until it passes then I would resume the video.
Loving the chemistry you guys have 🌝☘️
Just wanted to say that May I think is her name is a very beautiful woman and you sir are a very lucky guy, treat her right and don't take her for granted and you'll have an amazing woman there :)
May went from camera shy to entertainment Queen in record time! I was totally cracking up!! The butter splats 😂🤣🤣 And the tortilla slap game… 😅🤣 Fun!!
