After traveling in Mexico for almost 2 years, we visited Oaxaca City, Mexico for Dia de Muertos. In this travel vlog, we experience one of the most important traditions in Mexico.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS MEXICO VLOG? WE...
- Visit multiple cemeteries in Oaxaca;
- Encounter unexpected Day of the Dead festivities;
- Experience "Comparsas" in the streets of Oaxaca City
- Watch Coco, the Musical;
- Try delicious Oaxacan street food;
- See the elaborate and colorful Dia de Muertos 2019 decorations;
- and more!
If you're wondering what Dia de Muertos 2019 was like, we hope our vlog helps you experience what it was like in Oaxaca City, Mexico. This city has one of the biggest Day of the Dead celebrations in the whole country. An incredible number of people traveled to Oaxaca to get a taste of the magic and we're thankful to be some of them.
ABOUT US (MADDIE & JORDAN)
In January 2018, we sold everything we owned in the US (except our husky Laska & what fit in our tiny, tangerine Prius C3) to travel the world-starting with Mexico. Since then, we've been making travel videos about our life in Mexico and the new experiences we encounter while traveling the world.

A LOS OAXAQUEÑOS NOS GUSTA COMPARTIR NUESTRAS TRADICIONES ASI QUE NO LO VEMOS IRRESPETUOSOS SIEMPRE Y CUANDO GUARDEN LAS FORMAS.
i live in the USA and all i can say is that this tradition has officially crossed the border and Americans like it and start to celebrated too
Hola Yo soy de Camboya 🇰🇭, and I love México 🇲🇽.
And mexico love you back Iand I love your food. Btw
❤️
Me encanta que cuando están en Mexico comen de todo por que la comida es deliciosa!
Si y la comida se be atractiva muy bien presentada, deli.
Hola estás muy guapa ♥️😘🌹

She did a great job with the face paint.
Thanks Gerardo! I'm biased of course, but I think she was the most talented painter on the entire walking street! :)
I agree!... Some people from overseas, when they get their face characterized, they go to a dark phase and they get a creepy look instead of fun and mesmerizing.
Her face paint and flowers 😭😭😭😭😭. So beautiful I feel like I'm watching Coco the movie.
My Mom fell in love with Oaxaca (sp?) some years ago. She wants us all to go there with her one last time. I’m sold on that idea now. 💕
One thing I've learned over the years is that moms really do know best most of the time! ;) From where we're standing, you should have no hesitation to visit Oaxaca City (as well as the surrounding towns which have unique cultures of their own) Hope you enjoy it as much as we have!
How i miss my beautiful state of oaxaca ...
This video is awesome!!! In full disclosure, I love them all 🥰
You need to go to Guanajuato specially by the Cervantino festival calendar 📅
I’m from Oaxaca and you helped me experience my favorite holiday in Oaxaca through your video! Thank you so much! I love the video and Oaxaca.
Thanks Carlos! So happy to hear you liked our video 🧡
0:40 that's mazapán, the most famous dog in Oaxaca. He's always there when something important happens.
Ese es mazapan !??
Si, lo pintaron para el día de los muertos.....
My wife and I want to move to Mexico in a few years and I really appreciate your videos!!!
Thanks Jerry! We're delighted to hear our videos have been helpful for you. :)
You and your wife will be more than welcome Jerry!
@@oswrodriguez thank YOU
@@unusuario5173 not true still will be in my 40s and walking and climbing. Love Monterrey but my wife wants beach.
Jerry Williams you’ll be welcome
You are the best northamerican neighbors in my Beautiful MÉXICO!!! 🇲🇽 👏
Que hermosa es mi tierra mi Oaxaca y me siento orgulloso de ser oaxaqueño viva oaxaca bien venidos. A mi hermosa tierra oaxaqueña
Eso. que Viva Mexico
Todos los oaxaqueños estamos orgullosos paisano!
This face paint is a work of art!
Maddie thank you for being so conscious of showing respect for the families at the cemeteries. It was touching and showed a good heart.
Since both of you love the city so much would you consider living there? I've checked one of the hotels with 1 bedroom apartments and they were just under 500US for a 4-5 month stay in centro. Good buy?
I'm in the beginning stage of a new business I can run from the Net. Given it proves out I'll be moving to Mexico and probably Oxoaca or San Christobal in about a year. Thanks for all the videos. They are intricately cut and produced.
Thank you for the compliments, Stuart! That really means a lot to us :) As for your question - We haven't done enough rental searching in Oaxaca to know whether that's a good price for the location, though it does seem like it to me. You'll often find that prices are double (or more) on Airbnb, so that might be a good gage for you. We also recommend joining a local Facebook group for Oaxaca City and searching or asking there. Hope this helps!
@@TangerineTravels Surely helps. Enjoy the travels. We, the viewers, will for sure.
PS: Shortly I'll be getting the TangerinVPN.
Can you update us on your move?
@@cjhere2224 with the pandemic and all...everything is on hold. When I do go it will be for a 6 month sampling of a few places. Then settle somewhere for awhile. I figure it will be another year before things are better.
@17:34 thank you for respecting our culture and the people celebrating. You guys did the right thing. Dia de muertos was not meant to be as commercial as it is becoming. It's meant to be intimate, just you with your family, both living and departed. Anyone is welcome to join us and come watch or take pictures and video but only as long as you respect the people and the dead. What you two did is how all tourists and visitors should go about it.
Lots of vloggers covering this but you guys did it best!! 😀 I feel like I was there. So many thank yous
What a big compliment, thank you Jaen! We worked extra hard on this video, so we're delighted to hear that showed through 🤗
Like si eres de Oaxaca.
This video really touched me. The look of love on the face of the man playing the trumpet at about 32:50 is etched into my head. The whole video reminded me that after we die, we will rise again.
Maddie, you look fantastic as a Catrina ! What a wonderful video you made, guys. Thanks for showcasing our nation in such a loving and fun way. Our best US neighbors ever, you guys.
“Life IS something to celebrate.” Probably my favorite line in any vlog I’ve watched. Bravo.
If I could give this video a million likes I would. Oaxaca looks amazing and you two actually understood the real meaning of Dia de los Muertos. It's about celebrating life. By far my favorite video. I better start saving for next Dia de los Muertos! 🙂👍
My husband and I would love to move to Mexico one day, I watch your videos to learn more about my Mexico, where to go, what to do and what not to do. So ty you guys.
It is always a pleasure watching you two lovely people, but this was truly exhilarating. Even more, it was insightful, not just in a travel sense but philosophically. Yes. I am of the age where friends, associates and clients are passing away. The fear and mystery of death is compounded by the Anglo American Northern European Teutonic concept of death as fearful and dark and cold and grim and final, further exacerbated by the deterioration of the family and loss of spiritual heritage. Of course we have been separated from our spiritual heritage by modern mechanistic materialism, the "man is nothing more than a lumbering robot" philosophy. Contrast the celebration and participation that you are witnessing. Tight family cohesion and traditional spiritual life full of color and celebration; not cold and not final. Look at American Halloween, where it is all about me me me and kids consuming large amounts of sugar. And what is on the media for Halloween? Murder in various forms. Brutal bloody movies about slaughter. You have provided some true insight. You are special folks.
Heeey !!!! Just let me tell this to you......
I think your mouth is full of TRUTH !!!
..keep it up , just want to said that.
Completamente de acuerdo .
Yes, here in Mexico death is a motive for celebration. Some people even consider it a saint of protection.
I loved your words Stephen, and make feel proud and happy of being mexican, and have this way to see the death, to remember the ones that has gone, and to feel peace when aging. God bless you.
Yeah for sure
Look up happy indexes and where the US places on it compared to other so called undeveloped countries
To say nothing of the fact of how you two consistently capture the spirit of Mexico so consistently...no, wait. Let's acknowledge how so often you capture that invisible something that forces you to release your selfish sadness and experience simple joy in Mexican villages hidden in towns...I better shut up.
Amazing production values. The video is stellar.
My husband and I were there that weekend, it was awesome. As you show!
@11:48 that's a children's game called "La víbora de la mar" or "Rueda de San Miguel". It's very common throughout Mexico and Central America. It's basically the equivalent to a nursery rhyme and follow the leader in one. As children we used to hang on to the person in front of us and he or she would run in one direction and then change and since we were all hanging on to one another the trick was to not let go no matter how fast and how quickly we all turned, and as we all ran in a circle or a serpentine, we would all sing the song "¡A la víbora víbora de la mar, de la mar por aquí pueden pasar, los de adelante corren mucho y los de atrás se quedarán...!"
Only in here the song the band is playing is actually the melody of that song and it's adults doing it for fun. Lol
Awww.. your happiness is contagious, you made me feel happy and warm inside. I miss my Mexico so much. Gracias por el lindo video.
This brought tears to my eyes - it's so sweet. Thank you.
I can’t believe I have been following you channel for over a year now and I just finally gonged that bell hahahaha
Great video, as a mexican, I enjoy so much watching you enjoying my culture. Spending a Dia de Muertos en Oaxaca is literally being on Mexico’s heartbeat.
Thanks for joining the "GONG squad" Adrian! Welcome to the Tangerine elite! lol :) I absolutely LOVE how you phrased being in Oaxaca, Mexico's heartbeat. Couldn't have put it better myself! ~Maddie
Great video guys! It looks like you had an absolute blast in Oaxaca. I especially liked face paint and timelapse. And you hit the pepitas jackpot! They're my favorite snack in Mexico. Do you ever hear them call the semillas de calabaza "pepitas" instead? We can't wait to explore Oaxaca - hopefully on during Day of the Dead. Well done. I can really tell you guys put a lot into this one and it paid off! ¡Saludos desde Puerto Rico! -Jim
Looks brilliant, with the shirt and the makeup, Maddie!
Thank you! I loooved it!
Yeah, I love how awesome Maddie looks!!!👍👍
I'm from Oaxaca and I'm so glad you liked it cause I love how we live all of our traditions, there's party and celebration the whole year so whenever you want to comeback Oaxaca will be ready to surprise you guys ❤
Thanks for your love towards our Mexico and now yours too!! You are a wide window for the rest of the world see what Mexico is about, our traditions and honor them. Un saludo desde la CDMX
This was my favorite episode ever! I lived in Mexico for six months (in Querétaro) and the fiestas and food are what I miss the most. I can tell how hard you worked on this! Keep up the good work! So joyous!!!
"Cangreburger" is Krabby Patty in the Spanish translation. El Bob refers to SpongeBob ;)
I knew what the translation was, but I had no idea it had to do with Spongebob I thought it was just crab meat patties/burgers 😂😂😂 You learn something new everyday, thank you
🤣🤣
Maddie & Jordan thank you so much for all the exuberance, joy.....and integrity, you bring to your TH-cam channel and experiences. This was awesome! I absolutely love how you embrace my culture with so much positivity. I’ve tried watching other channels; but you are the best, in my humble opinion. I am all smiles when watching (and re-watching) your videos. Try not to let the naysayers get you down.....you two have met your calling and you are great at what you are doing! 🥰. Peace and blessings for all of your future travels.
What a wonderful video! Thank you so much for being so mindful and respectful of the families celebrating their loved ones in the cemeteries and not being “those tourists.” Un abrazo fuerte!
You guys did a great job on this video! It was almost like being there but without the exhaustion. Thanks for the video invite. I appreciate y'all doing this video while you were trying to enjoy yourselves during the festivities.
Thanks for noticing, amigos! Although this was an immensely enjoyable and memorable experience, it was hooo-eeeyy tiring, all the same lol :) It makes it all worth it to know that our efforts were appreciated ❤
@@TangerineTravels yes, give yourselves a pat on the back. You guys deserve it! ❤🐺🤟
Thank you so much for your awesome videos! After watching ALL of them, from the beginning, I am now addicted and can't wait for the next one. You both have grown so much in so many ways along your journey. It's so fun to watch you experience the wonderful country and culture of Mexico. Hope to see you there next year - moving to Oaxaca in March; planning to visit Puerto Morelos after settling in. Be safe, and God Bless! Que les vaya bien!
This is the best video of Dia de Muertos made by bloggers that I´ve seen so far. Congrats!
Comparsas, processions, face painting demo, marigolds, mercaditos, eloteras, calabasas, altars, cemetary tours, leche quemada, bunjelos, learning so much about Mexico from these videos, love it! Such a cute look too with the flowers, loved this video so much, sharing this!
Sometimes it's good to just be along for the ride. Save the learning for the next visit.
In our experience, it's almost better to have that "along for the ride" mindset because then we can keep an open, malleable mind about things instead of trying to know everything from the get-go.
Thank you so much for your Dia de Muertos adventure. You must have spent hours editing! We appreciate your hard work behind the scenes, as well as your engaging presence on screen. 😊😊😊
This is my favorite TT video so far! The face paint was so cool! My wife and I love Mexico and this has us wanting to go to Oaxaca!
After watching most of your videos I must say that you two put out the best travel videos I've seen. You offer so much information that is important to future visitors and you state both good and bad opinions in a fair and balanced manner that I appreciate very much. Jordan and Maddie are a lovely couple who are not afraid to try drinks and food that many of us would be reluctant to try. So thank you very much for this. I have traveled by automobile fairly extensively throughout Mexico limited only by time contraints and am envious of you two who have made your home there. I am Mexican-American 1st generation and I traveled in order to see where my parents originated. I no longer have family there so it has been quite some time since I've been back.
Maddie, OMG the face paint with the jewels and glitter! I think I would cry while washing it off! So pretty!
I am happy you are living this after all this time. You have come a long way since the start of Tangerine Travels.
I have been binge-watching your videos and this one is def one of my faves. You are both amazing. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventures! I love you guys. Take care! :)
What a vibrant festival! Such a nice way to remember loved ones and celebrate their lives.
I enjoy all your videos! This one perfectly captures the excitement and festivity in the air. Just amazing! Well done!
You guys are extraordinary people. Now since you are so open to other cultures you now can experience the foods Mexicans love! A whole new world literally, very entertaining content here.
Your videos makes me want to travel all around Mexico, thank you for that, i am Mexican and i only know few places like Cancun, Ciudad de Mexico and my town Monterrey but i really appreciate the effort you guys put on each video to show the good and the bad things of each of the places you visit, that means a lot when you gotta know what you will be facing when you get to any of those places
What a great celebration. I would love to have been there I have to say I'm envious. Thanks for letting us go along.
Hola chicos, soy de OAXACA y me da mucho gusto que vengan a mi ciudad y promocionen todo lo que tenemos para mostrarle al mundo. Siempre son maravillosos sus videos; mucho éxito y espero que vuelvan pronto.
Your enthusiasm is contagious!
Perfect face and dress for Tangerine Travels, BTW!
Thank you for this video! My first thought when I saw it was 40+ minutes was that you should have split it in 2, but I'm so glad you didn't. Well done guys!
I'm glad Jordan decided to go out again. I enjoy watching all your video, but especially because you both seem to make a great pair. Thanks for sharing your travels and your life, wishing you both all the best and much happiness!
me alegra mucho que disfruten nuestras tradiciones, y ala vez los envidio un poco porque mejor ustedes an podido conocer mucho mas a mexico que muchos de nosotros. Gracias por seguir mostrandonos mi mexico desde de su perspectiva!
42 minutes? it should be titled "Tangerine Travels - The Movie" lol. Greetings from Mexico City.
Omg omg omg!!! 😍♥️I live in Oaxaca and I would have loved to see you around specially because we were in the same spots almost at the same time. Your video shows pretty good how big "dia de muertos" is here. Also, I completely agree with you about Xoxocotlán. it's a huge party that has gone a little off rails and the last few years have been difficult for the families that honor their loved ones there, I mean they were used to the visitors before but right now it's all so crazy that it seems impossible to get the real feeling there. That's the reason I prefer going to the "panteón central" which is a much older cemetery where the atmosphere is completely different because most tombs there are super old and sometimes the families that you see gathered around the tomb are two or three generations away from the person buried. I think you missed the part of the cemetery where "la tumba del muerto olvidado Is" It has a great story to tell and the spot itself is beautiful. But okay, maybe next time😉Btw, the market around the cemetery is only there during the festivities.
I've been binge watching your videos for over a week now. I love them all, this one is my very favorite so far. I can see how much energy you put into it. I love that your eyes, Maddy were painted tangerine. I keep finding myself snacking while watching because you're always making me hungry 😁.
LOVED this video. You guys had soooo much fun. Thanks for sharing.
I've watched lots of Oaxaca and Dia de los Muertos videos and Tangerine Travels does them best! Love these videos, they make me feel like I'm there eating pumpkin seeds!
Thank you for such a big compliment! This really made us smile 😊
Great vlog guys so interesting I must add this to my bucket list 👏❤️
You guys are just the sweetest couple, wish you all the best and wonderful travels luv the pics .
I’ve always wanted to go Oaxaca during Halloween week. It gets so festive during that time because we remember our ancestors because no one ever dies.
Maddie i love your voice!! Sooo relaxing 🤗 and Jordan i love the way you explain everything a little bit shy
I like your videos guys!! So much
Im so happy you enjoy my beautiful and warm city! I hope you came soon again!!
I love your videos. I'm glad you liked Mexico so much. Hugs.
Really great job on the video. Thanks for sharing your amazing journey!
Yes, it was fun to watch. Learned a lot from you. Your hard work is very much appreciated. Love it.
Me parece increíble que una mujer que cuenta que toda su vida tuvo problemas con alergias pueda en México comer como lo haces sin muchas preocupaciones, y en verdad que se ven felices, me da mucho gusto que hayan encontrado lo que buscaban, a ustedes mismos y un hogar alterno.
Buñuelos! Yes, my family eats them too. They’re soo good!
I was born in Mexico and been in the US for 47 of my 50 years, so it’s real nice to see México through a beautiful couple like yourselves 👍🏼
You two are the best .... what a lovely couple you are. You should be congratulated for really capturing the real Mexico. Awesome, awesome video!
Jordan, where's your face paint? 🤔 Adding visiting Oaxaca City during día de muertos on my bucket list, it looks amazing 🎉
its a color you relate to..you marigolders matching the tangerine mode of transport....looking great with flowers in your hair!! what a great place to travel to
You got it! 😅
Is so cool that you two are having so much fun in Mexico. I am glad you two enjoy our culture, best wishes on your next endeavors!!!
Gracias x visitar Oaxaca y más en esas fechas tan bonitas esperamos y vuelvan el otro año
Maddie looks super beautiful! What a great video! You guys make me miss my country even more! Greetings from Toronto! 🤗
Such a beautiful vlog!! Plus the make-up on Maddie looks stunning!
I love your videos, and you really outdid yourselves. This was a masterwork of things I'm dreaming of experiencing some day.
It was wonderful. As are all your videos. Thanks for bringing Mexico to us.🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
I'm only on 7 minutes of your video, and I think this is my FAVORITE yet! Felicidades! y estoy celoso que estaban en Oaxaca. jajajajaja

Awesome 😎 video !! Guys, I’m from Oaxaca thank you for sharing this.
What a great video, guys. I'm just watching it over a year later. Such happy times, you guys seem so happy. It's a real boost watching it, especially now in the middle of the pandemic. Thank you. I'm watching all your videos.
Maddie your face paint was AMAZING. MY Parents are from Oaxaca. And im glad that you liked it there. Seeing your videos makes me want to go visit during Dia de Muertos. Oh and YAY! for long videos.
Thank you for the compliments, zemly! Glad you liked our long video!
At 30:11. "How cute is this? They dressed up the dog to look like its parents." LMAO. Nailed it Jordan.
16,000 views on this video and finally someone gets my humor. Thank you!

You make day of the dead look 👀 so festive and I want to be there feeling you articulate everything so as I can taste the food and feel what you guys are feeling thank you for taking me along 🌹👻🇲🇽
Awesome art on your face 🍊 😍
ive been watching your channel for years. i learn so much and it is so exciting going around mexico like this without paying for airfare or dealing with airports and crooked cab drivers and all that in a pandemic. it is like you feel my travel bug while i am safe and under the covers in my warm bed here in snowy new england. so i love your channel and love what you guys bring to me. it is fascinating and fun. i don't say it enuf. i love you both so much and admire your hutzpa, your bravery to live outside of the 9-5 work for someone else culture wow so brave. i am in awe not just of your product and how you deliver it but also because of who you guys are, brave and visionary and delivering an amazing product that people want. i have learned so much about mexico from you guys, you are my teachers. love love
This video was 42 mins but didn't feel like it I should have been an hour 😁 had a week off of work (elbow injury) and binge watching older videos and they helped me get thru painful sleepless nights. Love the channel!
Love your videos guys! 0:39 Mazapan appears! It's a very famous dog in Oaxaca, because he love to dance in calendas. Please keep doing videos! You are awesome 😃
25:18 cangreburger : Krabby patty. Literally Sponge bob’s burger 🍔 🤣
Hi, I am from Oaxaca and I really appreciate your love to my city and our food , traditions and people ...
You two are so adorable and seemingly perfectly compatible in being able to travel together! I wonder if these travels deepens your bond as there are always lots of decisions that have to be made on trips like this, sometimes quick decisions. In 1980 for 4 months I traveled solo all over Mexico & Central America, Oaxaca was one of my favorite cities. I was actually in Guatemala for the day of the dead way up in the hills and the celebrations were so interesting, as well as all of the tombs - some were elaborate of all sizes, some not fancy but you could feel the love and appreciation of the family's adornments of respect, and some huge and beautiful like you saw. Glad I found your channel. I'm still considering moving to Mexico - got to be near the beach and there are so many beautiful ones.
That!! Was!!! AWESOME!!!!! And yeah, I would have been EXHAUSTED after all of that! Hahahaha!!! Glad you guys had such a great time!
Really cool videos, Im from Mexico and Im glad to see you enjoying this beautiful country. Keep it up with the videos, now you have my subsciption to your channel.
Simply amazing! (6:53) It was an excellent idea! You could even appear in a magazine, newspaper or TV show!
I'm speechless! WoW!
