hiii guys happy sunday!! what did you think of this style of video?!
I had to laugh at the beginning of this video, with the descriptions of how some people in the US perceive the dangers of Mexico. If I were Mexican, I'd think twice before going to the US - a more dangerous country by far. Been here five years and have lived in Guanajuato (2 years) and now Mérida. Have also travelled to Campeche, Chiapas, and Quintana Roo. People from the US talking about how dangerous another country can be is a joke.
Jack, I completely agree but Serg is right that even Mexican people in US warn you not to move to MX. I live in a Chicago neighborhood - and just 20miles away we have like 50 murders every weekend, and still my Mexican neighbors got horrified when we told them we move to MX - they keep on trying to convince us not to go :)... I was shocked!!!
Such a fun and informative video - thank you both 💗
Excellent video. Thanks!!!
The only thing i have is that i feel really true freedom in Mexico vs us.
Yes, Mexico is quite cheap compared to other countries! love your videos because you share the positive side of Mexico
Hey great vid guys cheers from Merida Mexico whishing you guys all the best in the new year J&D
Thank you so much! Hope to visit Mérida one day!
i have visited cdmx maybe about 25 times in my life (i have family there and i love it so i just go anytime i can) and i have never been robbed or anything bad happening to me, is all about being conscious of your surroundings, preferably dont wear a purse and not wear any flashy jewelry
Very true! Although, there are areas where people wear designer clothes and flashy jewelry but it's probably best to play it safe if you're not familiar with the area you're in
😹😹 me gustan las recreaciones que hacen, muy buen video para tener un excelente domingo 😸👌🏼, me fascina su canal chicos, son los mejores 👏🏼👏🏼
Haha gracias! Fue muy divertido hacerlos
Yo trabajaba siete anos en un barrio latino en Chicago, y me gusta mucho trabajando con los latinos y practicando mi espanol (Solo tengo cuatro anos de espanol de colegio, y espanol es mi idioma segunda y yo se mi espanol no es perfecto). Yo creo sobre asistiendo mas clases de espanol aqui en America, y despues trabajando en un banco en ciudad de Mexico. Gracias por este video. Yo aprendi mucho.
For English speakers, I said Spanish is my second language and it is not perfect, but after enjoying my time working with Latinos and practicing the language, I sometimes think about taking more classes and trying to find a banking job in Mexico. This video was helpful.
Great tips on staying healthy. Something many people don't consider is washing their hands before they eat. It can greatly reduce the amount of new microbes one introduces to the GI tract. Think of all the things you might touch while walking around before you enjoy those delicious street tacos!
Hola bonito video como siempre
Muchas gracias!
Hello...great vídeo!!!
I like It a lot...from CDMX....!
Thank you!
Beautiful dog 🐕
I thought it was a fun and informative video. The acting was excellent! I do think you can safely eat street food though. I look for places that are busy because they are not holding food. They should always have two people, one handling cash and one cooking with gloves. And I watch them for a few minutes before ordering.
Good tips! Thank you!
Loved the video it was informative. What about healthcare?
Thank you! We should've included healthcare and we plan on making a dedicated video on this in the future!
MUCH OF OUR FOOD HERE COMES FORM MEXICO -WE NEVER THINK ABOUT IT..
Very Informative and fun video. When you talked about not knowing the language I imagined that you would give us a re-creation of what is not likely to happen in Mexico as someone saying, “Como Tsingtaos vienes a nuestro pais y no sabes nuestro idioma “ 🤣😂👍
Hahaha that's true, that wouldn't happen here (except on social media), I guess Mexicans don't feel entitled to other people's knowledge like you see in other places.
Your video's are great, very accurate and not full of fluff like some of the other's I've seen. The 180 visa crackdown is apparently aimed at limiting people are unable to support themselves. I hear they are targeting backpacker types who appear to have no place to live, and may stay and become a burden on the system. They are fully aware of the perpetual tourist, and in fact, there is *nothing illegal about staying 180 days, leaving for a week, and going back. If you are not a resident however, you may be given less time at the discretion of the customs agent, asked for proof that you are not planning to stay like onward travel,. This *just happened to us, they wanted to see our proof of travel, and, gave us 17 days. Luckily we were only planning a 2 week visit that time. If I was planning to be there 6 months, I would have explained that along with where I planned to live, and still provide the proof that I planned to leave.
That's true! Although it may feel a little sketchy, there's nothing illegal about using the FMM tourist card perpetually. It would be nice if they were a bit clearer and consistent about the criteria since many people still don't know and are caught off-guard at customs.
Hey guys !
We are so excited…. We got our temp residency visas yesterday in Atlanta !
But, we retire in 10 months. We are too young for social security but we could show assets so we’re good. Anyway, We were/are planning to go do temp residency part 2 in Mexico, taking 2 weeks off in July or August….head down to our future home San Cristobal de las Casas. But, now we are hearing that it is taking some people up to 2 months in certain cities ??? We have to get to Mexico within 6 month….we will still be working, and two weeks off is max for us. Figuring 2 travel days we’ll have 12 days there in the ground…can we get this done ?
My wife is originally from Nicaragua and we’ve been married forever so Spanish is the easy part. ……we are stressed.
We did this because of the tourist visa issue, not getting 180 days plus we plan to be there for years.
question and maybe you’ve already this in the comments. you spoke about the limit of days which literally just happened to me last weekend while going to Mexico City. So I’ve been planning on moving to la condesa for about 6 months now. What would be the visa or things I’d need to actually stay there? I tried hitting on your consulting link but it has expired or it’s not working. How much money do I need in my savings to be able to say, yes this is the time to go?
Serg, where do you get your shirts though?
Do you have any tips or advice for a tourist traveling to Mexico city?
Hello! I am so glad I just watched this video, because I am in Mexico now, & did not look at the amount of days I was granted in my customs form…. I looked & it says 11 days!!!! I was planning on a month 🙈what will happen if I overstay?!
Probably nothing. I broke my leg and my 45 days have expired. I did everything to get it extended. Doctor letters. Hospital records and even hired a lawyer. They finally said don’t worry
This is correct, that fee is around $35 USD
I never checked 😱 but I'm come from mexican ancestors & (never shown tbh) have mexican nationality as well😂
I'm curious about water and also Visa. I'm a gringo and always heard the water is not safe to drink. Can you get a water filter that would protect you from that?
What American bank do you use?
where are you both from and why did you two choose Mexico to move to ?
I don't know about 45% (I'd say 10%-15%) but it's definitely growing.
Hola Sergio. I broke my leg five days before returning to Atlanta. What an experience. Ouch. Think about a video on healthcare. I had to have surgery. I lost my flight home. I’m now an illegal in Mexico despite trying desperately not to let my 45 day visa expire. Etcétera etcétera. Plus the money. And they want cash! I’ve spent about USD$20,000. So far. Hopefully my insurance will reimburse me when I get home but I’m glad I had the money. What do poor people do?? Thank God I will get better but what an experience. Think about doing a video on healthcare. I had no idea??
Oh no. I'm really sorry to hear that! I know my US insurance does reimburse (on paper, I've never had to use it) so I wish you luck in that regard. Fortunately, as a citizen or resident, free healthcare is a right so if you were in that position, you'd go to a public hospital to be treated. We've added a healthcare & insurance video to our backlog so we'll make one for the future. Best of luck to you!
Had you ever been in the west part of Mexico?
I’ll be out in CDMX for about a month, I have two questions. 1) Do you recommend that I get a Mexican SIM card for cell service? 2) is it common to tip in cash in mex or does card work as well?
Hi! For just a month you can get a prepaid sim card at a convenience store for very cheap. That's what I'd do. And yes, tipping is also done by card (at restaurants or delivery services) but it's still nice to have some change for tipping some things like grocery baggers
My husband is going to be deported so we will be moving to mex.. do u think it's better to not take my car there
What about medical insurance?
We probably should've included that. We've added a dedicated video to healthcare & insurance to our backlog for the future. Thank you!
Hi what american bank do u have??
Just our local credit union but you can just look up "banks with no foreign transaction fees" for a list of the big ones. Lots of people use Chase or Charles Schwab
Hi Have you ever been in Mexico Estado de México?? At the north area as Cuautitlan Izcalli as invest to retired , it is so close from Mexico city and have everything to give the american retired people good quality life... I visited Mexico City and I think that this place need some invest it could be cool for retirement and heritage a land with value ... principal is in the Valle of Mexico and I can drive to many differents towns, and its not too expensive as buy in Mexico city
It feels like smaller city vibe... not many foreigners. Check vids here in youtube. It's up to you. It takes like 1 hr in car from Mexico city but it might be worth it if you like the vibe. Check Azcapotzalco in Mexico City or Tlalnepantla in Estado de Mexico. For close & bigger cities. Or let me know what kinda vibe you looking for
What are the best websites to search for apartments?
we have a video on this on our channel (:
Todos lo extranjeros. No entienden eso... You can't drink water from the bean. Because the drinking water that reaches your house arrives in water tanks that are on the roofs of the houses and usually they are not very clean, and it reaches your taps.
How many encounters did you have with MS13?
Likely none. Not anywhere near the neighborhoods they live in.
Hi! You look like Millie Bobby Brown 💖
¿Ustedes likes los chapulines con o sin chile?
Bad things and experiences happen to people because of their demons aka sins aka negative energy..... remember you create your own experiences....
if you are freed from Sin aka demons there is nothing to fear nor worry about bad experiences.
👽👽👽
nice acting lol
I’ve never heard in my entire life of a purse being stolen wtf are you talking about. You are spreading shit same as CNN. Unsubscribed.
This friend of mine had his wallet stolen. But it was in a sketchy looking area of Tijuana at 3:00 a.m.
He showed me the area and I said I wouldn't come here in the daytime let alone at 3:00 a.m.
