Off the Beaten Path in Colima, Mexico

- čas přidán 25. 08. 2024
- Colima, Mexico is the 4th smallest state in the country, it’s no wonder why it doesn’t see a lot of tourism. In this video, we explore some of Colima’s rural towns. First we visit El Remate, where we have a delicious meal at the restaurant “El Remate, Tradición y Sabor.”
Then, we make our way to La Yerbabuena, the community closest to the Volcan de Fuego de Colima (The Fire Volcano of Colima, one of Mexico’s most active volcanoes).
Lastly, we end the day at La Terraza de Mary, a coffee shop with a great view of the volcanoes.

I did a study abroad in Colima in the mid 90s! My husband and I have been down the past 3 years trying to decide where in Colima we want to start spending winters. We love how authentic Colima is!!
That's awesome! We love it too. The weather is great closer to the volcano where it's a little cooler. Thanks for watching! -Jim
you probably dont give a damn but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Harley Jesiah Instablaster ;)
@Azariah Kason i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Azariah Kason it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass :D
Hola un saludo muy grande desde Canada! Soy brasileño y mi esposa Colimota ai vivimos hermosos 5 años amo este lugar!!
I went to Colima when I was in college during the winter break 1982-83. Loved it!
This might’ve been my favorite video of you guys. It’s really nice to see your family’s and get glimpses into your lives . You guys really are great people I’m so happy I found this channel it’s changed my life.
Thanks, Ryan! That really means a lot. I guess sometimes the simplest videos can be the most authentic. We always appreciate you and your support. We're happy to have you as part of the community. ¡Nos vemos este fin de semana! -Jim
Yay! Soy de Colima, es hermoso y seguro pueden visitar otros lugares, tenemos todo playas, bosques!!
Playas no ríos si

Oooo, El Remate looks like a fantastic place. Colima seems very interesting. Those volcanoes seem scary though. OMG, you guys actually had your parents in your video. May, your mom is adorable.
I'm glad to see you back in Mexico. It was good seeing your families.
Us too! Thanks, Brett! Much more to come soon. -Jim

Colima is beautiful. The drone shot of the volcano was awesome.👌 Thanks for showing off all of the beautiful plants!
¡Gracias, amigos! It's a really beautiful area that doesn't see a lot of traffic. So many delicious foods grow there. We had some incredible fresh jack fruit during our visit.
@@SpanishandGo You're welcome! What a treat!
I love to see the town and meet the people and the culture when I visit another country. Very interesting dishes!
Thank you Angie! We look forward to visiting your home country some day! The food is always one of the best parts of any country. :) ¡Un saludo! -Jim
Hi Jim & May we went with 10 other people to visit Colima two years ago and we spent three days exploring your area. Lori was saying the other day that we should do another excursion and visit Colima and visit you guys. We were able to it's some great photographs of the town and the volcano.Jim & May keep doing what you do it's appreciated by all. I think we turn the corner on the winter season here in Ajijic it's time to get out the summer clothes. We would love to see you guys before you start traveling.
"Nobody really visits here". That's the main reason for travel. To go places nobody else goes. Example:Anthony Bourdain.
I want to visit Colima now! Thank you for the video.
I was in Colima for 3 days in December, its was nice, something different
I love your videos.😍 I am visiting for the first time this week.
That best state from mx my hometown to Colima 🌴
Your channel makes me homesick again again again and again!!!!!!
Great video! Thank you for sharing. I appreciate it! My mom was born in Colima Mexico
So nice to be with families 😊
Thank you

I been looking for my dad and he lives in Colima I haven’t see. Him since he was deported.

Quiero viajar en Sudamérica haciendo vídeos como tú. Recientemente ha empezado a aprender español y a hacer vídeos de mi progreso ✌🏻☺️
¡Súper! Ojalá que puedas viajar pronto. Sigue practicando. ☺️👍🏻 -Jim
I really like seeing you 2 in Mexico again!
What a wonderful casual video! It was great seeing your parents, too. I’d love to visit there sometime. Between your CZcams channel and your Spanish and Go membership with the weekly practice group online, I feel like I’m getting to know you and it’s been awesome, thank you 🤗
Thanks so much, Jennifer! We're glad you enjoyed it. We almost didn't release this video because we mainly wanted to try out our new camera, but it was a fun way to show what Mexico is like away from touristy areas. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday! ¡Un abrazo! 🤗 -Jim
It’s nice to see you guys again! Are you going back to Puerto Rico? Nice part of Mexico. Would like to see more of it. Thank you guys.
Awesome
OMG you are from colima, my tiny hometown.
Una vez vinieron a Comala en un festival de día de muertos y nunca lo subieron :"( ni a Instagram 💔
Would love to visit there!
Beautiful!
I need to know what places are good to stay and be nice to have someone to be a guide.😀
It seem like its cool in the evening.
Enjoy & stay safe.
I'm in Jalisco but im from Colima. 👍
Comala is a nice place to stay. Hotel Posada Comala is a good choice with basic amenities near downtown. From there you can visit the volcanoes, try the local traditional beverages like tuba (you can watch our video about some of them here: czcams.com/video/kCnM0OWOfbM/video.html), the local coffee, and excellent food. Colima is fairly hot until you get up by the volcano. Thanks for watching! -Jim
Hotel Posada! I’ve been staying there for years now. Clean,basic and there is a little cafe on the premises.
Beautiful video!
Muy interesante, este episodio!
Puede ser un poco difícil cuando se reúnan los papás de la apareja! Pero qué bueno fueron la cena y las vistas de los volcanes!
Saludos desde el estado de Guanajuato! Tenemos unos volcanes dormidos cercanos: las siete luminarias.
Such a fun day!❤️❤️🌞🌴
It was!
I noticias that you guess always have something to criticize when you go anywhere in PR but when you are in MX everything is hunky dory!
I think you've only seen a few of our videos if that's the impression you get. We just tell it as we see it. Mexico has its own problems too. -Jim
Nice country
Colima 😍😍😍😍 muy buen video !!!
I lived in Colima for 4 months, recently. Very authentic but very unsafe for such a small city. People going down every single night ! The news there always end with.....The suspects never were detained.
Full of reatauranta per capita, it is insane ! I suspect it ia from money laundering...Visit the Volcanos (de Fuego y Nevado) while you are there..Comala, Manzanillo, many lagunas to visit.
You will feel the poverty the poverty comparing to Guadalajara.
Colima en estos momentos esta pasando una crisis de inseguridad la estan pasando muy pero muy mal
I’m sure you guys have answered this already before but why did you move to Puerto Rico?
You're right! We talk about that in this video: czcams.com/video/KgfFDTeuu40/video.html
Thanks for watching! -Jim
@@SpanishandGo awesome thanks for the info. Crazy immigration process! But I’m glad you guys are figuring it out. Thanks so much for your content guys! I’m finding the podcast so helpful and enjoyable and I just want to thank you so much for all your work. Btw Jim, did you record the song “yung gravity” cause that song is a low key slap lol.
Keep it up guys!
Huitlacoche suena más mejor que ‘corn smut’.
😂 ¡Estoy de acuerdo, Rob! 😂 -Jim
Ohh wow u guys travel...would give u NYC tour for free if u ever here...Tours by Chef Gabiel at NYC..free for yall
Cidade mais violenta do mundo?
Nobody visits because it's on the DO NOT TRAVEL list.
I’m so scared I’m shaking in my boots.
@@SpanishandGo You should be another American was kidnapped there today. The US govt does not have this state on the Do Not Travel List for nothing. Smarty Pants.
There were were 51 school shootings in the US last year. Just under 350 people under the age of 21 have been abducted by strangers in the United States per year, on average. While tragic, Mexico is the 13th largest country in the world and you’re concerned about a few kidnappings of u.S. citizens. You’re blowing the news out of proportion.
@@SpanishandGo Imagine not understanding the concept of "per capita." It's literally THE most violent place on the planet outside of a direct warzone. I love the old "durr America has school shootings" cope. First, most of the "school shootings" you see listed were not "school shootings": they were unrelated, targeted shootings between hostile acquaintances that happened on a school property, usually gang violence and generally in a secluded parking lot, not shootings that were a danger to the public at large. The number is inflated, because only America lists these as "school shootings" while other countries don't.
53 known school property shootings out of over 120,000 school, colleges and universities. 44 victim deaths, 21 of which were from a single attack, the 3rd worst ever, not a pattern. 18/23 remaining deaths were targeted shootings, almost all between mutual criminals, that happened to be on a school-owned property, where the school location itself was not a primary factor. Almost all were after school hours, most after a night football game where local criminals and gangs fight in parking lots. Calling these "school shootings" would be like calling all public shootings "sidewalk shootings", when the sidewalk location itself is not at all important to the crime.
I'm from Colima
