Sure, you love it because you don't have to live there as a Mexican, you look at it from the comfort , protection and abundance of the blessed USA, go and live in Mexico as a Mexican citizen like us, see how much you're gonna love it, we have no freedom, due process, rights, nothing, you don't live here, you can only survive, you should thank G-d you were born in the USA, most of us would give half of our lives to be able to get out of here and be free to have opportunity of a better life
some of the same xenophobic idiots screaming about mexican immigrants coming into the US are now retiring in/moving to mexico because the US dollar gets you more bang for your buck here! *smh*
@@yesihavealastname1562 thats until this new comunist regime takes full force and then it will take their dollars, property and assets and kick them out without any legal recourse to fight back… lets see how much you will love Mexico when you are forced to see and live the real Mexico
Awesome, I was born in Mexico but raised in America recently got my dual citizenship, moving back to Mexico after all these years very excited Cuernavaca here i come!
John que agradable es ver a gente como tú que ha conocido y sigue conociendo México y sólo tiene buenas palabras que decir acerca de México, así como Jordan y Mady. A mi como mexicano me llena de orgullo ver tu comentario. Saludos desde CDMX.
Baby ortega we visited Costa Maya and Belize back in 2006. Absolutely enjoyed getting out of the US. That whetted my apetite to visit Mexico. Especially now that we live in Southern California just some 3 to 4 hours from the border. Love the resorts. Love the natural beauty. But #1? I love and miss thd people!!
I tell people the difference between the USA/Canada and Mexico is that in the North they legislate common sense, whereas in Mexico, you are still allowed to use it!
Am from Canada....Canada is different from the US .....public drinking laws may be similar in some places but ...not at all the same as life in the US. Just saying :)....medical( when u paying for it), college tuition, kindergarten and HS(for citizens and permanent residents)....theyre cheaper and free (for the latter)
@Angelina High school is free thru taxes... i figured thats a given. To be specific, the parents of the students dont have to physically pay for the school/education.
@Angelina, well, that's the labor of society to maintain itself. To educate the young and to take care of the sick and the elderly. All of us capable are supposed to pitch in, as most of us will have children and become old or sick, or both one day. You want roads, public services? All of us paid for them and to have schools and hospitals, community centers, firemen, police and such. Each society decides who takes care of that in the name of others and sometimes we do a very lousy job choosing those people. Yes, I believe we wouldn't be so angry to pay for it if we felt things were fair for us too. Wish you happiness, friend.
Luis Castro Luis Castro se me olvidaba sigue pensando así y postea en todos los blogs de centroamericanos, venezolanos, argentinos, colombianos, coreanos, gringos, japoneses, alemanes (wuero tv), belgas, brasileños, etc que hablan de Mexico para que ya no vengan a mi mexico 🇲🇽 lindo y querido perro víbora del infierno jajjaajaj
Se va a sentir más bonito el día que los mexicanos podamos decir que en nuestro país ya no hay abuso laboral, que no tenemos que trabajar hasta doce horas diarias, que finalmente hay un estado de bienestar, movilidad social, salarios decentes, etc.
@Rodrigo WB yes, there are the Americas, actually three: North, Central, and South. Do other of the Americans, besides the USAm. rather prefer to call themselves by their unique country's name, e.g. Venezuelans, Ecuadorians, Chileans, Brazilians, Columbians, Argentinians, etc. Since the USA is called the United States of America is why those citizens call themselves "Americans". Everybody knows what that means. If I was from Panama, I'd be very happy to say that I am Panamanian. Or from El Salvador, is it El Salvadorian, and Honduran, Nicaraguan, Mexican. If I were them, I would not like to be called "American" as in U.S. Am...
@Rodrigo WB Most of the normal continental north, south, and central Americans probably call themselves by the name of their specific country, not by the continent. I never heard of normal Chinese, Japanese, Hispanic, European, or island nation people say that I am Pacific or Atlantic islander, Asian or European or American. It is most likely they say they are Chinese, or Russian, French, Spanish, not by a continental name, or they say the name of tribal people. Indians in U.S. America will tell you their Indian nation name, even being citizens of US America. They want to keep their unique identity and not be some generic "American". And as I mentioned, U.S. Americans of the United States of America do call themselves Americans because of the name of their country. You believe in your own unique human person, do you not? What are you, do you really know who you are? I myself am one-of-a-kind, a very unique human created by God. Being who I am in the sight of my Creator is infinitely more important to me than any earthly national identity because I am a citizen of the eternal kingdom of Jesus Christ. What do you have that is eternal?
Because United Statesian doesn’t doesn’t really roll of the tongue lol. I guess we could identify by our states but let’s be honest, can people outside of the US recognize the name of every state? It would get confusing... It may be incorrect to identify only US citizens as Americans but at this point it’s how the world knows us and do you really want the negativity that comes along with that anyway?
It will all change, names change, individuals change their names, some nations have changed names, all will change, only Jesus never changes. He is the Same yesterday, today, and forever. BTW, before the Europeans came, there was no such thing as America. Someday there will be no more America.
@Rodrigo WB yes, I have posted before regarding the slaughters of the indigenous Indian peoples of the Americas, and their concentration camps. I hope that one day when the Europeans etc no longer control the Americas that Indians can return to their Earth harmonious life and teach any remaining foreigners to live the same most Earth compatible way. I myself lived in a tent for two years in three campgrounds in Portugal. I was most con-tent-ed.
Just subscribed to your channel and really like you guys. I admire your free spirit and courage to move to Mexico. I have always been under the assumption that it would be very dangerous to live there but you two are proving me wrong. My wife is from the Philippines and I’ve been there twice and fell in love with it. Lots of people advised me not to go but found out for myself it’s much more dangerous here in the U.S. than in Philippines.Mexico is on our vacation plans thanks to you two. Take care and God Bess you both.
It's kinda crazy how the US media tries to convince everyone that other countries are soooo dangerous when conditions within the country are often worse. As you found out firsthand, just because somewhere is unfamiliar or foreign, doesn't mean it's dangerous. Good for you for traveling and finding out the truth. Hope you get to experience all the amazing things Mexico has to offer too. 🤗
So great to know diferent languages. Believe me , I get it. And probably will never fully understand Spanish and all the different variations. To do a full video in Spanish Is not recommended. Like I said, I get it . But as I try to show people here in the states, it gets dificult. Your not trying to share this with Mexicans who could care less, but you are trying to show people around the world that it is not bad where you are. Great job and enjoy. Love your videos. Time is getting shorter. And maybe soon , We Rosa and I with our family will see you in our travels.
I totally agree about the personal freedom. I feel it as soon as I cross the border. It's exhilarating. Also, the laid-back lifestyle. In the U.S., time is money. In Mexico, tiempo es vida.
Life in US us great but time goes by so fast that you feel the weeks as if it were days. In Mexico its all different time feels to move slower and makes you feel like you're actually living
I went to mexico for around 2 weeks and it was the best experience ever and then I returned to the U.S and said I want to go back because of how bland it was here
True.. Went from eating fresh made tacos, seafood, flautas... Got back to USA and eating jack in the box, KFC, even the "fresh cooked" restauraunts food is so genetically modified it tastes the same
That's how it feels every time I return to the US after being in Mexico. The vibe in Mexico is so refreshing and fun, but the vibe even here in San Diego where I live is kinda boring lol.
@@jimkirby9959 I agree but on the other hand at least here in California you can not drink a beer in your own garden while mowing the lawn or just sitting enjoying a cool one.that is considered a crime.you can always sit somewhere far from a smoker.
@@isachar2013 Because in the US everything is over-regulated and the social and culture system in Mexico is inherently corrupt so as long as you don't piss off the wrong person you are safe. In most countries in Latin-America you have 2 options: live by the day like most people. Or make tons of money exploiting the less educated and privileged among you and be filthy rich. The Mexicans crossing the border every day are part of the first group.
Ignorant AI TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES CONFUSE AND CONTROL THE SO CALLED USA OR AMERICA SIMPLY BECAUSE SATAN CURRENTLY CONTROLS THE COMPLETE MKULTRA MIND CONTROLLED FREAKS UNBELIEVABLE WOW
@@jlove7723 you are wrong, times change, now the Mexicans no longer cross the border, if you are updated you will see on the TV news that are the Central Americans, South Americans and others who cross, you stayed in the past, you are stereotyped with the Mexicans ...
Thank you for your kind words about Mexico, your empathy and appreciation for the culture! I really enjoy your videos and wish to travel Mexico more often!
Oh man I so feel you guys. I lived in Asia for 17 years (15 in Korea, 2 in Vietnam) before returning to the States in 2012, and our recent trip to Guadalajara and Ajijic was the first time I had been outside of the U.S. since that 2012 return. It rekindled memories of everything I loved about living abroad, many of which you talk about in this video - escaping the politics of the U.S., being around people who are "present", fresh (not processed) foods, low cost of living, focus on experiences rather than possessions, etc. This is why we are moving back to Vietnam this summer. Oh, and the low cost of travel to other destinations around SE Asia. And nice, 3-star hotels for a quarter of the price of a Motel 6 in the States is also nice. - Scott
We're giving it at least two years, and maybe more (forever?) if we are enjoying it. We'll be chronicling our experience on our UA-cam channel. - Scott I always thought it was just the letters "O-X-X-O". That's how I called it. :-) - Maia
Its crazyhow that ends up being a big deal. Before I moved to baja california all the convos with family and friends revolved on money and who bought what etc. My wife and I have had here in baja mexico so many nights just drinking coffee or eating dinner with neighbors and friends. Little things make a difference.
Life is different. I have a 12 and a 8 year old. When we are in Mexico for 2 weeks at a time, they forget about their phones, tablets and even the TV. They spend their days playing outside with other kids. What if it rains? They will still be playing out in the rain. That’s life in Mexico.
V Happy actually living in Mexico it’s very cheap, you don’t need to have a big bank account to live there, you will find a way to make a living you’ll be surprised how people there find ways to make a living, you’ll see people selling food, cleaning windshields, selling flowers, food, etc.. but the best of all it’s that it’s all worth it for the peace and freedom that you will experience everyday, with time you’ll learn to avoid dangerous spots, but one thing is for sure that most Mexican people will open the doors of their own homes to welcome you,and you better be prepared to eat not till you satisfied but until they stop serving you food, don’t be afraid and take the risk ✌🏽
That sounds terrible! Like eczema? That was one of my worst issues while in the US and it's pretty much gone here in Mexico. It only seems to flare up when eating nasty stuff, like sucralose or high fructose corn syrup. AKA - processed, chemical-filled, fake ingredients.
I acquired the same thing while in the US, now it’s almost gone after being back here in Mexico. I wonder what it is about the US tho, kinda scary to think about
Joseph .m If it was winter worse, there is a lack of vitamin D/+ vitamin K link to your condition probably. Getting sufficient sunshine usually helps end the itching. Of course in Mexico you get lots of sun time, as you are outside all the time... compared to AC'd, sun excluded, work/car/home spaces.. back in the USA Back in the UK, where bright sunshine is seldom seen, the Govt now recommends that everyone, at all ages, takes Vitamin D supplements ... all year round. Quitting using 'cheap n nasty' industrially produced soaps is another good idea if your skin itches, and showering every other day, rather than every day helps too. I used to shower at least once a day ( and thus consume lots of Proctor Gamble / Unilever stuff) now I only bathe when I need to.. all that showering just strips your body oils and skin off of you! ...Follow this advice only with your partner's agreement... hahaha :-))
Well I, as a mexican, can tell you that is true to yo a certain extent. If you decide to visit Juarez City, Tepito or a place of really low class then dont expect to be save. But I guess you know that is quite obvious. Mexico city is like any other place, with his pros and cons. If you have a career youll do well, if not, then it ll be hard. Being in a place where they sell drugs and kill themselves its quite easy to find, you just have to found a bad place, like in any other country.
@mov1987 as they said at the begining, México is very huge and unfortunely cartels are true but on specific points; the south, east and Center are still under control; specially Yucatán, Campeche, Quintana Roo.
mov1987 still beautiful even with the cartels, that’s why so many Americans visit. it’s a problem the people can’t fix but the goverment, very corrupt government.
@mov1987 well by all means dont go to New York, chicago, LA.. Many cities in USA are the same, many cities in MEX are the same, but doesnt mean either country as a whole is unsafe
I moved to Acapulco one month ago with no real Spanish speaking skills and I absolutely love it here! Keep up the great videos! And come check out Acapulco someday. Vista Hermosa, friendly people and Bonita playas! Lol my Spanish still sucks. Mucho gracias amigos.
You gotta be kidding me right? im from Acapulco and no, if there is a city where all those horrible stories US media says that are happening in México, that is Acapulco.. it´s a hellhole here. Crime is overwhelming, extortion everywhere, decadence, too much poverty etc.
@@christopherneil988 im Mexican , but i hate people saying Mexico is safe, that crime happens everywhere etc.and that includes Mexicans and Americans.. it is just not right .. yes, american media sometimes hype a lot of things, but some cities are just like they(media) say, like Acapulco, Guanajuato, small rural towns etc.. TAKE A LOOK AT THIS PAGE.. it´s about Guerrero state insecurity.. and if it´s not common thing americans getting killed it has happened a few days ago www.lorealdeguerrero.com.mx/2019/07/18/pareja-de-turistas-estadounidenses-son-asesinados-a-balazos-en-petatlan/ month ago another couple of americans were killed they was cooking drugs in Acapulco www.tribuna.com.mx/seguridad/Asesinan-a-estadounidense-en-Acapulco-tenia-un-laboratorio-de-drogas-20190202-0079.html
You two are such a delight. I'm 61, and my wife and I are planning to retire in Mexico in a few years. You're videos are a great inspiration, and very informative. Keep it up.
I think also a less stressful lifestyle has allowed you to eat more foods. In my early 30’s I’ve been getting super sick and all linked to stress. Ready to move out of the US in a few weeks
Tangerine Travels I can imagine! You guys look so fulfilled. I am just wondering if finishing my degree first would get me a better chance at getting temp/permanent residency.
@@Frost-k6e you will be welcome to Mexico..this 2019 will be the year that mexican government start making a big proyects in southern Mexico..the Tren Maya...Oil refinery..and much more..all these things will make a economic boom..i think this year a lot of people would think about moving to Mexico..A new Era to My country just barely started with our new president..viva Mexico🇲🇽🇲🇽
Jose Luis Pichardo Gracias amigo! I did not know about this and it’s great because I want to move to the southern part of Mexico like Michoacán. I hope it is not to difficult to get a visa :) viva Mexico!
@@Frost-k6e that's cool but before moving to Michoacan .you should try to live for afew months in diffents states like..Oaxaca .Chiapas, Yucatan..Puebla..(industrial city..google it you will find a lot of things about it. )..After that you will have a better idea where you want to live...i live in California but i have been thinking to move to a city of southern Mexico and start business and see how the Maya Train and new cities next to the Maya Train route are built.
What I love about being in Mexico is the freedom, friendliness, vibrant atmosphere. People out and about and fellowshipping, enjoying nature and the excitement in the air. Living in the states everyone seems to be locked in their house... no one out and about. Scared & afraid of each other. In Mexico there are so many free activities happening every day. Fun filled & Happy days to be had here!
READ THE ENTIRE MESSAGE PLEASE I HAVE A DOUBT ABOUT YOU AMERICANS hello I had to use a translator to speak your complicated language. It is true that in the United States they do a lot of bulling in schools and that they are disobedient to their parents. Is your house on two floors?
"Living in the states everyone seems to be locked in their house... no one out and abou" Move to a big city downtown here in the USA, it's very different. 🙂
Saving money to get the hell out of the states i don’t feel safe here no more sad to leave your birth country but it is what it is thinking about movie to Monterrey or Mexico City 😇🙏
I heard that to go the Doctor in the USA. You have to make an appointment like a month before. And then fill out like 10 forms each time. In Mexico you go in the same day . No paperwork for a clinic, thell give the medicine and go.
Yep! For most specialists, you have to wait at least a month, sometimes 2-6 months, which is nuts! And for each new office, you have to file TONS of paperwork. The ease of getting medical attention in Mexico is far superior and not to mention so much cheaper. We should have mentioned this!
not really, my mom have some probles in her knees, she needed first to make an appointment actually 2 weeks before to be checked, then another month for the actual surgery. sorry my english sucks
Jordan deserves SO much more thanks than in just one video. I often wonder how and why he stuck with me during all these health issues (still ongoing), but I am so grateful for it.
I completely agree, I’m from Mexico but I have been living in the US for about 10 years and here I started having allergies, Endometriosis, and My body can’t tolerate many things even chicken and meats make me sick I love US but I REALLY missed real Mexican Normal food even the tomatoes have a smell there. here every veggie doesn’t have smell
Unless you cook all of your meals from scratch, food in the US is shit unless you are willing to spend big bucks on the best quality stuff. Hands down food everywhere else in the world is better.
I completely agree with you sir, I am from Mexico and I also love the food of my country because I believe that the people who make food, make it with love, spend time in the kitchen to see you happy and good food with good people is the perfect combination ♥
There are some things we didn't talk about in this video which we absolutely LOVE about Mexico: The people and its history, to name a couple. What are YOUR favorite things about Mexico?
I can't believe you actually said all of that, it really touched me T_T This country may not be perfect (No place is) but I'm so glad you liked it Really hope to see more of you ^_^ (And Laska)
My favorite thing about Mexico is that Mexicans generally don't have any hatred in their hearts for anyone or any group. I'm sorry to say you don't have to dig very far to find hatred in the hearts of many of my fellow Americans.
My faves are similar to yours. Freedom to just be yourself, is amazing. Everyone goes with the flow. Even traffic is merging and flowing. I don't think America will recover her voice and the right to personal opinion. Second fave? Touching each other without the fear of being considered weird? It's okay to hug a stranger that you enjoyed a memory moment with? You can still hold kids without being considered a kidnapper! Third, I love the curiosity and helpfulness of everyone and the freedom to also be curios and helpful. Fourth, my kids and their new found independence and desire to explore. They never want to return to the USA. And of course the food!!!! I have lost 14 pounds eating anything I wanted. No GMO? No counting carbs! What? I feel set free. My kids feel better! Hoping this year is a year of health and joy for both of you.
Yes! Housekeepers, no laundry, and great food and margaritas without breaking the bank! No need to drive! It's walking, taxis, and collectivos. Our way of living has upgraded major. Healthcare!!!! We also never wanted to be rich. We do like being freed up financially to help others when we see a need. That is bliss. :)

Your comments are well thought out and I agree with them entirely although I might phrase some of them slightly differently. I first started traveling in Mexico back in the early 1990s, around 1991 or 1992. I feel in love with the country and its people. I bought a condo in Puerto Vallarta in 1996 and since then I have spent at least part of the year there each year. I have found the people of Mexico to be kind, generous, and loving. If given the chance they will embrace you and make you a part of their family. They are loyal beyond measure. But it is a different culture and things move more slowly in Mexico than they do in the states. I try to explain this to frustrated expats who try to live in Mexico in the same manner that they do in the states and discover it really does not work well. The Mexicans are shaped by their past history and the rich tapestry of cultures which have blended together to make them what they are. It is not that one manner of doing things is superior to the other, it is simply that they are different. I enjoy the Mexican manner of doing things. They are hardworking people but unlike life in the states, they do not live to work. They have time to laugh, love, enjoy, joke, and spend time with family and friends. One thing I discovered was the one you commented on about in this video, in Mexico you can walk out of the house with no identification in your pocket and never need to worry. There is a great deal of personal freedom in Mexico. Sometimes this can be annoying for some people, especially at Christmas when the neighbors on the next street over have a posada and the party includes a mariachi band and a DJ and goes until 4am. You either keep some cheap earplugs from a farmacia on hand or you crash the party. But you can sit in front of the house with a few friends and have a little chat and a beer and no one is going to be calling the cops on you. Your life is not overly regulated in the same fashion as in the states. There is also a big difference in food. The Mexican diet is not dependent on processed foods in the manner or extent as it is in the USA. So much of the food one eats there is fresh-made daily from fresh fruit and veggies. The tortillas are delivered daily in the morning and no person living in the states has ever had the experience of eating a fresh tortilla right off the griddle. The same is true of the bread in the bakeries. It always amuses me how confused the gringos are when they go into a Mexican supermarket like Mega, Comer, Soriana, or the like and see that there are virtually no frozen veggies. Only Walmart has any significant amount. One of my close friends has a small restaurant which serves breakfast and lunch to people in downtown Puerto Vallarta. He shops daily in the morning for the produce and such he needs. Everything he sells is made on site, nothing comes from a can, box or bag as a mix or processes food. The aguas, the salsas, the chicken tinga, carne asada or carnitas, everything is made by hand and not processed food. We do not see that in the states. The truth is that Mexico is not a perfect place. It has its troubles just as any country does. You are right to warn of issues you encounter when you do encounter them. It is true they can happen everywhere but if you encounter someone using a taxi fare scam, it is good to warn others to be aware of this possibility and that they should do research before they travel somewhere. But the fact is that the good things about Mexico far outweigh the bad. BTW I am in the process of doing the permanent residence visa as I will be retiring completely later this year. I will be interested in seeing how the process works for you on the temporary visa. I know a number of people who did that and everyone had a slightly different experience but all were glad they had.
It's nothing like what u describe in tijuana and been living here 10 years. And because of this..im definitely to go back to the states! At some point..lol
The Vegas videos brought me to your channel and I’m staying! It’s refreshing to watch and listen to the reasons why you’re in Mexico. You guys are such a great young couple! Keep up the great work on your channel!
I wish I could have loved this video not just liked it!!! Because of your videos my husband and I want to go to Ajijic and, possibly move there!! We love each and every video you put out!! I have health problems and where we live in northern Nevada it's becoming harder and harder to live because of it. Watching the two of you has been like watching heaven!! Thank you so much for making your videos for all of us to see!!! And Madee Congratulations on being able to eat real food again!!
Shauna Reay. Ditto for me! I want to find a long-term base for extended trips to Mx. Ajijic, San Miguel, & Queretaro looking promising. I've now added Puerto Morelos to the list.
That means so much to us, thanks a lot, Shauna! Ajijic seems to have a way of helping with people's health, we hope you're able to find that a place that allows you to heal 🙂
@Shauna Reay Hi, Shauna! I'm Mexican and I can tell you that most of the private specialists and subspecialists in Mexico charge around 20-80 dollars per consult, with the average being around 30-45 dlls. Having a quality living in Mexico is possible and is indeed great for retirement, because you can do and receive more for far less money. E.g., if one retiree receives a minimum of 1,000 dlls per month will barely be able to pay for the rent, utilities, food, let alone medical bills... but in Mexico just with that minimum of 1,000 dlls a month your margin and options stretches far more. Now, if one or two persons are receiving 1,500-2,000 per month, with that amount you're definitely on the other side for an excellent living in Mexico, a quality living that over there wouldn't be possible for the same price, since it would multiply around x2 or x3 times or even more. Research for the best options for your needs.
Thanks for the great vid! I'm a proud residente temporal de Mexico. I can't agree more that getting away from the frankenfood in the USA for wonderful Mexican natural and real food. Being vegetarian down here is so much easier and I must say, much tastier too! ❤️ 🇲🇽🥰
México país de libertades!! Identifiquen los símbolos de respeto e integrense a las comunidades, colonias y pueblos que visiten, por qué tienen origen prehispánico y esos valores conforman el alma de México y si lo entienden será una gran experiencia en sus vidas como ahora lo explican y los reafirmará como seres humanos en este mundo y así harán su aportación para un mundo mejor. Sean felices.
One razón l stoped going to concerts in usa where people don't even enjoy any more and everyone is just caring about recording with cell phones & taking pictures of drinks and food vs in mexico we danced and enjoy music at parties at least in small towns without having to worry sbout likes on instagram and Facebook thanks guys for your honest l enjoy your videos so much gracias por su respuestas
SO TRUE! It's crazy how it's "not okay" to eat/do things in the US anymore without documenting it for Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, etc. etc. etc. It's one thing to take a picture or video to record a memory, but it's almost like people are just doing it to create this fake online life to show off to others. We LOVE how that's not usualy the case in Mexico. People put the phones away and talk to each other. They dance. They walk around and enjoy the nature or the town.
@@TangerineTravels wish you a great year whether you continue living or traveling in mexico we love your videos keep posting we do enjoy your videos and your happy life gracias por todo
@howzit3000 you have to earn between 1500 and 2000 dollars per month average. For permanent visa. If not ypu can live in Mexico Tourist visa but you have to go to the US and come back every several months.
It is incredible that products or items of high monetary value abroad are accessible to some extent here. At least that got my attention and I find it interesting. Good video!
Delightful videos. I've traveled all my life, been all over the world and experienced many things I would never have otherwise. Your stated reasons for being glad of your decision to move to Mexico are interesting, eye-opening and extremely insightful. It is also quite heartwarming to see two young people through UA-cam that obviously know themselves so well, know each other and clearly care for each other so much.
@Vaxen 805 when produce crosses the boarder. They go into war houses and are sprayed with chemicals. Your probally allergic to these chemicals.Im sure it causes a lot of sickness.
I was so surprised to hear her talking about that! Maybe it'll happen for me, too! Even "organic" stuff in the states gives me an allergic reaction. [Not TRUE organic, as in "grown by an individual or small farm," but the new definition of organic which was apparently co-opted by Big Ag and in fact, doesn't mean organic any more at all!]
And something else.. the festivities are amazing. I love Christmas, the posadas. You can feel it in the air. Amaizing video!!! I love the life in Mexico
Thank you for this video, my husband and I will be Canadian snowbirds this Nov 2019 for 6 month and your video has confirmed we made the right decision. I especially love your speech about the freedom you experience and feel in Mexico regarding individuals being free to be themselves and respecting others rights and freedoms. Keep up the good work!!
You are both so brave. I am wanting to retire to Mexico. Although with the pandemic, I'm going to have to wait. Now I am just watching all videos about moving there. I enjoy yours very much.
Have faith, let go of past pains, felures, negative experiences, write them down, eat as healthy as you can (avoid bread, pastas, fried food, soda pop, salt and refined sugars and canned and processed food, wieners), save your money and energy, look for a YMCA or church group
Wendy Besse your health issues if not wrong is due to the way of eating (food in general). Is not fresh and all processed. Is a way of controlling and get into that whole diet, gym business.
every country has its problems but, belive me México is another world I tell you because I know México and The US the US is like a desert you can be aroud many people and you feel like abandoned ....
All my pain, my health issues disappear every time I spend a good amount of time in Mexico. It’s a healthier life style. Including the food. More natural, more organic. I’m retiring next year and we already preparing for our big move.
my parents have 2 houses in guadalajara and like 4 in the state of zacatecas. we live in houston tho....maybe i should just go to mexico....too much stress here
I havent seen my country in over 6 years and watching your videos has made me feel comfort to see how lively it still is. I miss it so much, enjoy it for all of us. 🇲🇽
Your experiences of eye opening differences in culture from Europe to the US ring true to me. Working as tour guide I've met people born on six of the seven continents of planet earth. Every other 1st and 2nd world person I've met, other than Americans including myself, spoke more than one language. I've come to the conclusion we Americans have been shortchanged in education, language the metric system as examples. Yes travel has expanded my world view and engaged my mind in ways staring at a video screen will never do. From these experiences I can truly appreciate you two and your courageous approach to living your lives. Bravo to you both.
We both strongly wish that we would've grown up learning multiple languages at an early age, we'll definitely do that for our kids when/if we have some~
You guys seem to be like fun. I like the fact that both of you are so young and experiencing new things out of your comfort zone. Congrats on that. I’m thinking of doing the same thing but in Peru. I lived in NY for so many years and retirement is coming for both my wife and I. Good luck with both of you.
Thanks for sharing guys! We found it really interesting to hear your perspectives on why you moved and how you've found life in Mexico. We travelled through Mexico at the beginning of the year and before our trip we were binge watching your channel. Your videos were so useful for us in planning our travels. Now we're living in Nicaragua due to the pandemic and we have found a lot of similarities between life here and your experiences of living in Mexico. We can definitely relate to the excitement of having a breakthrough with Spanish when you have a whole conversation and don't totally muck it up.
Great video as always Jordan and Maddie..your channel is my favourite one. LOVE YOU GUYS! I am glad Maddie is now able to eat almost anything in México. GOD BLESS YOU! :-)
Thanks Fernando, that means a lot to us! I think health is the best gift she could've asked for. It's easy to take your health for granted until it's gone.
@@TangerineTravelsYou are right Jordan !! nothing in life is enjoyable if you don´t have good health...you can even be a millionaire..but if you were stranded on a bed or on a wheelchair...or having an oxigen mask for breathing...whatever....nothing would be worth it , nothing matters most than having a good health. May God keep you both always in good health. Blessings my dearest friends ! :-)
Omg, I just found you guys last night & here I am today watching more of your videos, I've already been sharing them, I'm praying to move out of the us. Love your honesty & helpful insights.
I lived in Mexico for 4 years, and it has way more culture than the U.S. Even the little towns in Mexico have life. They feel like mini cities. In the U.S, even the big cities can feel generic ( Houston, Dallas, )and lifeless with the exceptions of New York, San Fran, New Orleans, D.C and a few others.
Joshua LeonardoASMR I live in Dallas & spent the month of July this year in Mexico , I agree with you in Mexico I felt alive with freedom , over here in Dallas I feel like I’m living everyone else’s life smh
Tour NYC from above, below, and on level ground in the John Wick films, with JW4 coming in 2021. Afterwards, you will be even happier in Mexico and just about in every other country around God's wonderful world.

What does Laska think about the move to Mexico? Are squirrels and pigeons more fascinating and/or challenging? Are hydrants much harder to find? Is the food too spicy or not spicy enough? Does Laska enjoy the weather? I would like to know. Thanks guys.
This made us laugh! 😂To this day, we still wonder if she has a hard time communicating with the other dogs here. She does seem to be a big fan of all the smells across the country and Mexican food scraps at the very least.
Miss Mayflower. In Jalapa, Vera Cruz, very few cars or trucks. Stayed at a coffee plantation. But, in Mexico City, COULD NOT BREATHE!!! Depends on where you stay.
I am from Mexico, I love Mexico but there are a differences that make me prefer USA, the main thing is the POLICE in Mexico nobody respect the police, here in USA is very different that Mexico I think that is the reason many people is in prision.

This is the determining video that has made me plan to move to México soon. I completly agree with all you said about living in the US. We have a very materialistic culture and I do feel limited in how I can think- and I feel like culture tells us to stay within the boundaries and "follow the rules," and do things this certain way which I think definitly limits us and makes us stupid because we can't think for ourselves. That's just me but I plan to move to México City in September 2020
I moved to mexico in 2008. With when you get residency buy a house or if you youre married to a mexican citizen buy a house. Bought my house in 2012 and it appreciated 40% in 2020. Im in baja california. Life here has very similarities to the US im surrounded by 3 walmarts and a costco for example and lots of people speak english. I even joined the rotary club. I have to girls now and theres bilingual schools for example montesory type teaching. While these are private schools theyre really similar to the ones in the US with cafeterias gym etc. If you have family that already livethey can help you make the transition. I would also recommend you stay in mexico a month or 2 and do the day to day routine or even air bnb a house for a month or two see if you like it.
One thing I like is all the neighbors now my name and I know them. When we vacation we can leave our dog with our neighbors and we do the same for them. During holloween the block we live in gets together and we organize a party for the kids for after they come back from trick or treating. Something I didnt have back home. Back in california non of the neighbors talked to eachother. Everyone was in its own world.
Antonio Sciorra I agree. It doesn’t teach slang words or abbreviations 😂 you’ll stick out unless you learn the local Spanish from your area. Not everyone speak Spanish the same
Going to another country will almost always pose the risk of getting sick from unfamiliar bacteria and all that. It very well could also be the f’d up food though.
Your opinion is really interesting, because it is not only from a couple who come on vacation to Mexico and spend a week, but they really left their lives behind to live in the country, so their opinion has more arguments and great courage. Thank you for talking about Mexico from your perspective, without any prejudice.
Me too. In fact I've been thinking that a lot in the past year. We need to get a lot of people educated this way and FAST. Even if we just required a week long field trip to a neighbor country (Cananda / Mexico) it would change our own country. Too many people in the US live in fear of the outside world.
Haha the U.S. government doesn't want us to realize that people in other countries are not inferior to Americans, and that those countries are not inferior to the united States. That illusion has to be preserved to keep us divided and to perpetuate the myth of 'American exceptionalism" and that the U.S. is the "Land of the Free"
The food in the US has been making me sick for years too. Thank goodness the foods making me sick (gluten, white sugar, dairy, meat and basically anything that was not certified organic) were also the foods that were making me fat. I lost a buttload of weight when I changed my diet and I feel so much better. In America it has become the have's and have nots, there is no in between anymore and most people just gripe about it but accept it as the way it has to be. It's so nice to hear young people validate things I have been saying for years and consequently been getting hated on by a lot of "good Americans". Thank you for another wonderful video. Belly rubs for Laska❤
Great questions. I wonder how ppl do it. Do they woke up one morning and say hey let’s pack and move to Mexico and leave a life behind and start a new one? Sometimes I go through challenges when I move from an apartment to a different community here in the states. 🤪
I am obsessed with getting out of where I live..Arizona or Florida was my first choice, until I watched your videos. I have been to Mexico on a cruise and we ported at Cozumel and I only spent 5 hours there and fell in love. Please do more videos and tips on moving to Mexico. What about jobs there etc
There is a lot of gringos working in Mexico as well from Europe people And they love it.... Claro Mexico es un amigo 😀 Y necesitas in Poco de español y amigos will be easy to learning in Mexico Lindo y querido 😁
Good information. I'm about 12 years away from retirement so there is no sense in leaving AZ right now but I have been looking for a new location. I've been re-searching many locations in South America and this is one place I had not heard about until now. Thanks again.
So glad that Maddie' health got better and her diet was more ample because to only be able to eat 5 foods, what were the 5: cauliflower, red cabbage, rice, olive oil and ......forgot the fifth!
Thanks Joe! Me too. When my health was that bad, life was miserable. And the only thing from the 5 you missed was spices :P If it weren't for those, I probably would have gone for-real crazy!
@@TangerineTravels, I just learned rice has a ton of mercury in the US and it's worst if it comes from China. I don't think Mexican soil is that polluted...

I tell people the difference between the USA/Canada and Mexico is that in the North they legislate common sense, whereas in Mexico, you are still allowed to use it!
What a great way to put it!
Am from Canada....Canada is different from the US .....public drinking laws may be similar in some places but ...not at all the same as life in the US. Just saying :)....medical( when u paying for it), college tuition, kindergarten and HS(for citizens and permanent residents)....theyre cheaper and free (for the latter)
@Angelina High school is free thru taxes... i figured thats a given. To be specific, the parents of the students dont have to physically pay for the school/education.
@Angelina, well, that's the labor of society to maintain itself. To educate the young and to take care of the sick and the elderly. All of us capable are supposed to pitch in, as most of us will have children and become old or sick, or both one day. You want roads, public services? All of us paid for them and to have schools and hospitals, community centers, firemen, police and such. Each society decides who takes care of that in the name of others and sometimes we do a very lousy job choosing those people. Yes, I believe we wouldn't be so angry to pay for it if we felt things were fair for us too. Wish you happiness, friend.

I noticed the freedom in Mexico. We Americans (US Citizens) have over regulated ourselves to death!
@Rodrigo WB yes, there are the Americas, actually three: North, Central, and South. Do other of the Americans, besides the USAm. rather prefer to call themselves by their unique country's name, e.g. Venezuelans, Ecuadorians, Chileans, Brazilians, Columbians, Argentinians, etc. Since the USA is called the United States of America is why those citizens call themselves "Americans". Everybody knows what that means. If I was from Panama, I'd be very happy to say that I am Panamanian. Or from El Salvador, is it El Salvadorian, and Honduran, Nicaraguan, Mexican. If I were them, I would not like to be called "American" as in U.S. Am...
@Rodrigo WB Most of the normal continental north, south, and central Americans probably call themselves by the name of their specific country, not by the continent. I never heard of normal Chinese, Japanese, Hispanic, European, or island nation people say that I am Pacific or Atlantic islander, Asian or European or American. It is most likely they say they are Chinese, or Russian, French, Spanish, not by a continental name, or they say the name of tribal people. Indians in U.S. America will tell you their Indian nation name, even being citizens of US America. They want to keep their unique identity and not be some generic "American". And as I mentioned, U.S. Americans of the United States of America do call themselves Americans because of the name of their country. You believe in your own unique human person, do you not? What are you, do you really know who you are? I myself am one-of-a-kind, a very unique human created by God. Being who I am in the sight of my Creator is infinitely more important to me than any earthly national identity because I am a citizen of the eternal kingdom of Jesus Christ. What do you have that is eternal?
Because United Statesian doesn’t doesn’t really roll of the tongue lol. I guess we could identify by our states but let’s be honest, can people outside of the US recognize the name of every state? It would get confusing... It may be incorrect to identify only US citizens as Americans but at this point it’s how the world knows us and do you really want the negativity that comes along with that anyway?
It will all change, names change, individuals change their names, some nations have changed names, all will change, only Jesus never changes. He is the Same yesterday, today, and forever. BTW, before the Europeans came, there was no such thing as America. Someday there will be no more America.
@Rodrigo WB yes, I have posted before regarding the slaughters of the indigenous Indian peoples of the Americas, and their concentration camps. I hope that one day when the Europeans etc no longer control the Americas that Indians can return to their Earth harmonious life and teach any remaining foreigners to live the same most Earth compatible way. I myself lived in a tent for two years in three campgrounds in Portugal. I was most con-tent-ed.
Just subscribed to your channel and really like you guys. I admire your free spirit and courage to move to Mexico. I have always been under the assumption that it would be very dangerous to live there but you two are proving me wrong. My wife is from the Philippines and I’ve been there twice and fell in love with it. Lots of people advised me not to go but found out for myself it’s much more dangerous here in the U.S. than in Philippines.Mexico is on our vacation plans thanks to you two. Take care and God Bess you both.
It's kinda crazy how the US media tries to convince everyone that other countries are soooo dangerous when conditions within the country are often worse. As you found out firsthand, just because somewhere is unfamiliar or foreign, doesn't mean it's dangerous. Good for you for traveling and finding out the truth. Hope you get to experience all the amazing things Mexico has to offer too. 🤗

Oh man I so feel you guys. I lived in Asia for 17 years (15 in Korea, 2 in Vietnam) before returning to the States in 2012, and our recent trip to Guadalajara and
Ajijic was the first time I had been outside of the U.S. since that 2012 return. It rekindled memories of everything I loved about living abroad, many of which you talk about in this video - escaping the politics of the U.S., being around people who are "present", fresh (not processed) foods, low cost of living, focus on experiences rather than possessions, etc. This is why we are moving back to Vietnam this summer. Oh, and the low cost of travel to other destinations around SE Asia. And nice, 3-star hotels for a quarter of the price of a Motel 6 in the States is also nice. - Scott
Enjoy it! Are you just going for the summer or planning to stay there for a long period of time?
We're giving it at least two years, and maybe more (forever?) if we are enjoying it. We'll be chronicling our experience on our UA-cam channel. - Scott
I always thought it was just the letters "O-X-X-O". That's how I called it. :-) - Maia
Hi from Guadalajara
Its crazyhow that ends up being a big deal. Before I moved to baja california all the convos with family and friends revolved on money and who bought what etc. My wife and I have had here in baja mexico so many nights just drinking coffee or eating dinner with neighbors and friends. Little things make a difference.
As an older person....what I like about watching your videos is that there in Mexico it seems like you've gone back in time to a simpler time
Life is different. I have a 12 and a 8 year old. When we are in Mexico for 2 weeks at a time, they forget about their phones, tablets and even the TV. They spend their days playing outside with other kids. What if it rains? They will still be playing out in the rain. That’s life in Mexico.
Welcome! Been out here for 4 years now. I love the people! I married into the culture. Be safe be free
What do you do for work ?
I want to move to Mexico but my bank account isnt too big lol
V Happy actually living in Mexico it’s very cheap, you don’t need to have a big bank account to live there, you will find a way to make a living you’ll be surprised how people there find ways to make a living, you’ll see people selling food, cleaning windshields, selling flowers, food, etc.. but the best of all it’s that it’s all worth it for the peace and freedom that you will experience everyday, with time you’ll learn to avoid dangerous spots, but one thing is for sure that most Mexican people will open the doors of their own homes to welcome you,and you better be prepared to eat not till you satisfied but until they stop serving you food, don’t be afraid and take the risk ✌🏽
wow really awesome

I had xtreme dry skin with itch like crazy specially worst in the winter , i spend one year in México and i can say i am cure like 95%
That sounds terrible! Like eczema? That was one of my worst issues while in the US and it's pretty much gone here in Mexico. It only seems to flare up when eating nasty stuff, like sucralose or high fructose corn syrup. AKA - processed, chemical-filled, fake ingredients.
I acquired the same thing while in the US, now it’s almost gone after being back here in Mexico. I wonder what it is about the US tho, kinda scary to think about
Smogg
USA killing it's citizens, , fact
Joseph .m If it was winter worse, there is a lack of vitamin D/+ vitamin K link to your condition probably. Getting sufficient sunshine usually helps end the itching. Of course in Mexico you get lots of sun time, as you are outside all the time... compared to AC'd, sun excluded, work/car/home spaces.. back in the USA
Back in the UK, where bright sunshine is seldom seen, the Govt now recommends that everyone, at all ages, takes Vitamin D supplements ... all year round.
Quitting using 'cheap n nasty' industrially produced soaps is another good idea if your skin itches, and showering every other day, rather than every day helps too. I used to shower at least once a day ( and thus consume lots of Proctor Gamble / Unilever stuff) now I only bathe when I need to..
all that showering just strips your body oils and skin off of you!
...Follow this advice only with your partner's agreement... hahaha :-))

@mov1987 decriminalize, and regulate drugs.
Well I, as a mexican, can tell you that is true to yo a certain extent. If you decide to visit Juarez City, Tepito or a place of really low class then dont expect to be save. But I guess you know that is quite obvious.
Mexico city is like any other place, with his pros and cons. If you have a career youll do well, if not, then it ll be hard.
Being in a place where they sell drugs and kill themselves its quite easy to find, you just have to found a bad place, like in any other country.
@mov1987 as they said at the begining, México is very huge and unfortunely cartels are true but on specific points; the south, east and Center are still under control; specially Yucatán, Campeche, Quintana Roo.
mov1987 still beautiful even with the cartels, that’s why so many Americans visit. it’s a problem the people can’t fix but the goverment, very corrupt government.
@mov1987 well by all means dont go to New York, chicago, LA.. Many cities in USA are the same, many cities in MEX are the same, but doesnt mean either country as a whole is unsafe

Tangerine Travels I can imagine! You guys look so fulfilled. I am just wondering if finishing my degree first would get me a better chance at getting temp/permanent residency.
@@Frost-k6e you will be welcome to Mexico..this 2019 will be the year that mexican government start making a big proyects in southern Mexico..the Tren Maya...Oil refinery..and much more..all these things will make a economic boom..i think this year a lot of people would think about moving to Mexico..A new Era to My country just barely started with our new president..viva Mexico🇲🇽🇲🇽
Jose Luis Pichardo Gracias amigo! I did not know about this and it’s great because I want to move to the southern part of Mexico like Michoacán. I hope it is not to difficult to get a visa :) viva Mexico!
@@Frost-k6e that's cool but before moving to Michoacan .you should try to live for afew months in diffents states like..Oaxaca .Chiapas, Yucatan..Puebla..(industrial city..google it you will find a lot of things about it. )..After that you will have a better idea where you want to live...i live in California but i have been thinking to move to a city of southern Mexico and start business and see how the Maya Train and new cities next to the Maya Train route are built.
What I love about being in Mexico is the freedom, friendliness, vibrant atmosphere. People out and about and fellowshipping, enjoying nature and the excitement in the air. Living in the states everyone seems to be locked in their house... no one out and about. Scared & afraid of each other. In Mexico there are so many free activities happening every day. Fun filled & Happy days to be had here!
READ THE ENTIRE MESSAGE PLEASE I HAVE A DOUBT ABOUT YOU AMERICANS
hello I had to use a translator to speak your complicated language. It is true that in the United States they do a lot of bulling in schools and that they are disobedient to their parents. Is your house on two floors?
"Living in the states everyone seems to be locked in their house... no one out and abou"
Move to a big city downtown here in the USA, it's very different. 🙂
Saving money to get the hell out of the states i don’t feel safe here no more sad to leave your birth country but it is what it is thinking about movie to Monterrey or Mexico City 😇🙏
Dhehsh Shajja you should check out Mazatlan Sinaloa is a great place to live lots of people from Canada and the US have moved there also 😊
Thanks I will check it out this coming week 😁
Same I want to move to Monterrey.
I'm from Monterrey and I can tell you for sure you'll be welcomed here.
You're welcome in Mexico City as well it's huge!
I heard that to go the Doctor in the USA. You have to make an appointment like a month before. And then fill out like 10 forms each time. In Mexico you go in the same day . No paperwork for a clinic, thell give the medicine and go.
Yep! For most specialists, you have to wait at least a month, sometimes 2-6 months, which is nuts! And for each new office, you have to file TONS of paperwork. The ease of getting medical attention in Mexico is far superior and not to mention so much cheaper. We should have mentioned this!
Not true. I can see the doctor the same day in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Oscar Falco what you say is partially true. That happens in Mexico if you go to private medical services. Not in public health services.
not really, my mom have some probles in her knees, she needed first to make an appointment actually 2 weeks before to be checked, then another month for the actual surgery.
sorry my english sucks
no debt But you pay too much!
Nice of her to publically thank him for standing by her through the food allergies catastrophe taking over her life
Jordan deserves SO much more thanks than in just one video. I often wonder how and why he stuck with me during all these health issues (still ongoing), but I am so grateful for it.
They use pesticides in Mexico because here in California we get a lot of vegetables from mexico...
totally agree with the food part , when me and my wife go to Mexico same thing happen to us. we love the food there.
I completely agree, I’m from Mexico but I have been living in the US for about 10 years and here I started having allergies, Endometriosis, and My body can’t tolerate many things even chicken and meats make me sick
I love US but I REALLY missed real Mexican Normal food even the tomatoes have a smell there. here every veggie doesn’t have smell
Unless you cook all of your meals from scratch, food in the US is shit unless you are willing to spend big bucks on the best quality stuff. Hands down food everywhere else in the world is better.
I completely agree with you sir, I am from Mexico and I also love the food of my country because I believe that the people who make food, make it with love, spend time in the kitchen to see you happy and good food with good people is the perfect combination ♥
moving there this summer...I can't wait.
There are some things we didn't talk about in this video which we absolutely LOVE about Mexico: The people and its history, to name a couple. What are YOUR favorite things about Mexico?
I can't believe you actually said all of that, it really touched me T_T
This country may not be perfect (No place is) but I'm so glad you liked it
Really hope to see more of you ^_^ (And Laska)
I love everything about Mexico :3
My favorite thing about Mexico is that Mexicans generally don't have any hatred in their hearts for anyone or any group. I'm sorry to say you don't have to dig very far to find hatred in the hearts of many of my fellow Americans.
My faves are similar to yours. Freedom to just be yourself, is amazing. Everyone goes with the flow. Even traffic is merging and flowing. I don't think America will recover her voice and the right to personal opinion. Second fave? Touching each other without the fear of being considered weird? It's okay to hug a stranger that you enjoyed a memory moment with? You can still hold kids without being considered a kidnapper! Third, I love the curiosity and helpfulness of everyone and the freedom to also be curios and helpful. Fourth, my kids and their new found independence and desire to explore. They never want to return to the USA. And of course the food!!!! I have lost 14 pounds eating anything I wanted. No GMO? No counting carbs! What? I feel set free. My kids feel better! Hoping this year is a year of health and joy for both of you.
Yes! Housekeepers, no laundry, and great food and margaritas without breaking the bank! No need to drive! It's walking, taxis, and collectivos. Our way of living has upgraded major. Healthcare!!!! We also never wanted to be rich. We do like being freed up financially to help others when we see a need. That is bliss. :)
Yes! The food in other countries is so different! I can eat anything while in Mexico but not while in the U.S.
I only " found" your travels last week so I am binge watching your channel. You bring me such good memories of the quiet of Mexico.
Welcome! If you haven't found it yet, here's a helpful "Binge Watch Everything Tangerine Travels" playlist to make your life easier: ua-cam.com/play/PL_1iJW4YPFcOC0-nOx5H5bzk7OZ76ZNoC.html
Your comments are well thought out and I agree with them entirely although I might phrase some of them slightly differently. I first started traveling in Mexico back in the early 1990s, around 1991 or 1992. I feel in love with the country and its people. I bought a condo in Puerto Vallarta in 1996 and since then I have spent at least part of the year there each year. I have found the people of Mexico to be kind, generous, and loving. If given the chance they will embrace you and make you a part of their family. They are loyal beyond measure. But it is a different culture and things move more slowly in Mexico than they do in the states. I try to explain this to frustrated expats who try to live in Mexico in the same manner that they do in the states and discover it really does not work well. The Mexicans are shaped by their past history and the rich tapestry of cultures which have blended together to make them what they are. It is not that one manner of doing things is superior to the other, it is simply that they are different. I enjoy the Mexican manner of doing things. They are hardworking people but unlike life in the states, they do not live to work. They have time to laugh, love, enjoy, joke, and spend time with family and friends.
One thing I discovered was the one you commented on about in this video, in Mexico you can walk out of the house with no identification in your pocket and never need to worry. There is a great deal of personal freedom in Mexico. Sometimes this can be annoying for some people, especially at Christmas when the neighbors on the next street over have a posada and the party includes a mariachi band and a DJ and goes until 4am. You either keep some cheap earplugs from a farmacia on hand or you crash the party. But you can sit in front of the house with a few friends and have a little chat and a beer and no one is going to be calling the cops on you. Your life is not overly regulated in the same fashion as in the states.
There is also a big difference in food. The Mexican diet is not dependent on processed foods in the manner or extent as it is in the USA. So much of the food one eats there is fresh-made daily from fresh fruit and veggies. The tortillas are delivered daily in the morning and no person living in the states has ever had the experience of eating a fresh tortilla right off the griddle. The same is true of the bread in the bakeries. It always amuses me how confused the gringos are when they go into a Mexican supermarket like Mega, Comer, Soriana, or the like and see that there are virtually no frozen veggies. Only Walmart has any significant amount. One of my close friends has a small restaurant which serves breakfast and lunch to people in downtown Puerto Vallarta. He shops daily in the morning for the produce and such he needs. Everything he sells is made on site, nothing comes from a can, box or bag as a mix or processes food. The aguas, the salsas, the chicken tinga, carne asada or carnitas, everything is made by hand and not processed food. We do not see that in the states.
The truth is that Mexico is not a perfect place. It has its troubles just as any country does. You are right to warn of issues you encounter when you do encounter them. It is true they can happen everywhere but if you encounter someone using a taxi fare scam, it is good to warn others to be aware of this possibility and that they should do research before they travel somewhere. But the fact is that the good things about Mexico far outweigh the bad.
BTW I am in the process of doing the permanent residence visa as I will be retiring completely later this year. I will be interested in seeing how the process works for you on the temporary visa. I know a number of people who did that and everyone had a slightly different experience but all were glad they had.
It's nothing like what u describe in tijuana and been living here 10 years. And because of this..im definitely to go back to the states! At some point..lol
John Petry beautifully worded.
Bond James Bond exactly. The places near the border are always dangerous.
@@expatatlarge5286 - I have been to TJ but as others have pointed out, border towns are not good places in most of the world.
John Petry, i really enjoyed to read every word!
The Vegas videos brought me to your channel and I’m staying! It’s refreshing to watch and listen to the reasons why you’re in Mexico. You guys are such a great young couple! Keep up the great work on your channel!
You are the coolest Americans I've seen!!! Your videos bring a smile to my face and I'm sure to many others as well ❤
Ruso i love your videos, send me a kiss and give me a like 👍🏽
I watch you're videos all the time you and your mother are so cool I'm glad you like this channel too.
If we can help put one more smile in the world every day, that’s mission accomplished. Thanks for such high praise RR! 🤗🤗 You are always so sweet.
That's true and is because they live in Mexico
When do we expect a vlog video of you guys in México?
Would love for you to visit.
I wish I could have loved this video not just liked it!!! Because of your videos my husband and I want to go to Ajijic and, possibly move there!! We love each and every video you put out!! I have health problems and where we live in northern Nevada it's becoming harder and harder to live because of it. Watching the two of you has been like watching heaven!! Thank you so much for making your videos for all of us to see!!! And Madee Congratulations on being able to eat real food again!!
Shauna Reay. Ditto for me! I want to find a long-term base for extended trips to Mx. Ajijic, San Miguel, & Queretaro looking promising. I've now added Puerto Morelos to the list.
That means so much to us, thanks a lot, Shauna! Ajijic seems to have a way of helping with people's health, we hope you're able to find that a place that allows you to heal 🙂
@Shauna Reay Hi, Shauna! I'm Mexican and I can tell you that most of the private specialists and subspecialists in Mexico charge around 20-80 dollars per consult, with the average being around 30-45 dlls. Having a quality living in Mexico is possible and is indeed great for retirement, because you can do and receive more for far less money. E.g., if one retiree receives a minimum of 1,000 dlls per month will barely be able to pay for the rent, utilities, food, let alone medical bills... but in Mexico just with that minimum of 1,000 dlls a month your margin and options stretches far more. Now, if one or two persons are receiving 1,500-2,000 per month, with that amount you're definitely on the other side for an excellent living in Mexico, a quality living that over there wouldn't be possible for the same price, since it would multiply around x2 or x3 times or even more. Research for the best options for your needs.
Thanks for the great vid! I'm a proud residente temporal de Mexico. I can't agree more that getting away from the frankenfood in the USA for wonderful Mexican natural and real food. Being vegetarian down here is so much easier and I must say, much tastier too! ❤️ 🇲🇽🥰
wow the freedom statement is curiously accurate about the US. I am now mid 50's and things have changed so much. I am ready to move!!
Welcome!
@Poison Ivy may be you'll find him there!!!never know..give it a try!!🤠🤠🤠
I wish that I could move there also.
@Poison Ivy lets Go im sooo READY!!!
Ann Raybon go for it¡
Well I’m proudly Mexican who loves Mexico yet I love the USA as well
Every country has its cons and pros
Have a Great Day
You are very right! No place is perfect :)
I agree
Food in méxico is cooked with love my friends, so what you are exoeriencing is real love
México país de libertades!! Identifiquen los símbolos de respeto e integrense a las comunidades, colonias y pueblos que visiten, por qué tienen origen prehispánico y esos valores conforman el alma de México y si lo entienden será una gran experiencia en sus vidas como ahora lo explican y los reafirmará como seres humanos en este mundo y así harán su aportación para un mundo mejor. Sean felices.
One razón l stoped going to concerts in usa where people don't even enjoy any more and everyone is just caring about recording with cell phones & taking pictures of drinks and food vs in mexico we danced and enjoy music at parties at least in small towns without having to worry sbout likes on instagram and Facebook thanks guys for your honest l enjoy your videos so much gracias por su respuestas
SO TRUE! It's crazy how it's "not okay" to eat/do things in the US anymore without documenting it for Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, etc. etc. etc. It's one thing to take a picture or video to record a memory, but it's almost like people are just doing it to create this fake online life to show off to others. We LOVE how that's not usualy the case in Mexico. People put the phones away and talk to each other. They dance. They walk around and enjoy the nature or the town.
@@TangerineTravels wish you a great year whether you continue living or traveling in mexico we love your videos keep posting we do enjoy your videos and your happy life gracias por todo
You guys have such a positive vibe, I love it. I'm Mexican and I feel very happy that you feel welcomed in our country.
Tkank you! Soy fan de tangerine y me agrada saber que si leen los comentarios
Yea up
My plan to retired back in Mexico around 45-50years old I’m still here in the states working saving all the money I can
Best thing to do, save all you can.
@howzit3000 you have to earn between 1500 and 2000 dollars per month average. For permanent visa. If not ypu can live in Mexico Tourist visa but you have to go to the US and come back every several months.
Como mexicana, es muy lindo escucharlos hablar de lo bueno de nuestro país y que disfruten tanto su vida aquí. Saludos from Mexico City!
I'm fascinated to hear about the food intolerances in the U.S. vs Mexico! Wow!
I’ll be on my way there , my retirement is one year and 3 months .
I have my house buildup already .
Saludos
Congrats! You must be counting down the days with excitement :)
I could hear his excitement through his comment lol
It is incredible that products or items of high monetary value abroad are accessible to some extent here. At least that got my attention and I find it interesting. Good video!
I'm happy for you guys. Hope to bump into you guys on my travels through mexico next month
Maybe we'll see you soon!
Delightful videos. I've traveled all my life, been all over the world and experienced many things I would never have otherwise. Your stated reasons for being glad of your decision to move to Mexico are interesting, eye-opening and extremely insightful. It is also quite heartwarming to see two young people through UA-cam that obviously know themselves so well, know each other and clearly care for each other so much.
Yeah everything i eat in the US destroys my stomach. Once i ate in Mexico i could eat everything!
Ay man we Mexicans make fat stuff but still good and make em by heart
@Vaxen 805 when produce crosses the boarder. They go into war houses and are sprayed with chemicals. Your probally allergic to these chemicals.Im sure it causes a lot of sickness.
I got sick eating food in mexico
I was so surprised to hear her talking about that! Maybe it'll happen for me, too! Even "organic" stuff in the states gives me an allergic reaction. [Not TRUE organic, as in "grown by an individual or small farm," but the new definition of organic which was apparently co-opted by Big Ag and in fact, doesn't mean organic any more at all!]
@@teddee4572 We call it "vaccination". After two or three times you become immune.
And something else.. the festivities are amazing. I love Christmas, the posadas. You can feel it in the air. Amaizing video!!! I love the life in Mexico
U guys are awesome, with an open mind n open heart. It fills me with joy to see u guys enjoy our beautiful Mexico! #vivaMexico
Thank you for sharing your travel journey so far! You two are amazing and it is wonderful to see a happy, thriving couple enjoying life together.
You’re so sweet Sasha. Thank you!
You guys do look happy. I’ll be there in a month :)
This city made us both happy from the day we arrived!
Why do Americans prefer to live in Mexico and not in Canada?
Thank you for this video, my husband and I will be Canadian snowbirds this Nov 2019 for 6 month and your video has confirmed we made the right decision. I especially love your speech about the freedom you experience and feel in Mexico regarding individuals being free to be themselves and respecting others rights and freedoms. Keep up the good work!!
Gypsy life style
You are both so brave. I am wanting to retire to Mexico. Although with the pandemic, I'm going to have to wait. Now I am just watching all videos about moving there. I enjoy yours very much.
You make Mexico sound like the promise land.
With my health issues, I dream of a better lifestyle.
Look into San Miguel De Allende or Chapala
Have faith, let go of past pains, felures, negative experiences, write them down, eat as healthy as you can (avoid bread, pastas, fried food, soda pop, salt and refined sugars and canned and processed food, wieners), save your money and energy, look for a YMCA or church group
Wendy Besse your health issues if not wrong is due to the way of eating (food in general). Is not fresh and all processed. Is a way of controlling and get into that whole diet, gym business.
every country has its problems but, belive me México is another world I tell you because I know México and The US the US is like a desert you can be aroud many people and you feel like abandoned ....
All my pain, my health issues disappear every time I spend a good amount of time in Mexico. It’s a healthier life style. Including the food. More natural, more organic. I’m retiring next year and we already preparing for our big move.
my parents have 2 houses in guadalajara and like 4 in the state of zacatecas. we live in houston tho....maybe i should just go to mexico....too much stress here
I havent seen my country in over 6 years and watching your videos has made me feel comfort to see how lively it still is. I miss it so much, enjoy it for all of us. 🇲🇽
Your experiences of eye opening differences in culture from Europe to the US ring true to me. Working as tour guide I've met people born on six of the seven continents of planet earth. Every other 1st and 2nd world person I've met, other than Americans including myself, spoke more than one language. I've come to the conclusion we Americans have been shortchanged in education, language the metric system as examples. Yes travel has expanded my world view and engaged my mind in ways staring at a video screen will never do. From these experiences I can truly appreciate you two and your courageous approach to living your lives. Bravo to you both.
Cliff P. I so agree with you!
We both strongly wish that we would've grown up learning multiple languages at an early age, we'll definitely do that for our kids when/if we have some~
In fact, in Mexico, the largest number of Americans live outside of the United States in the world.
The US is like a prision taxes taxes and more taxes....
Taxes are much higher in Mexico, people are just really good at figuring out ways not to pay.
That's why everyone wants to come here.? Come legal or stay away.
No entendí
@@119jle Everyone wants to come where? To US? :D Are you joking?
With that logic every country is a prison lmfao and btw almost every european country taxes more than USA
You guys seem to be like fun. I like the fact that both of you are so young and experiencing new things out of your comfort zone. Congrats on that. I’m thinking of doing the same thing but in Peru. I lived in NY for so many years and retirement is coming for both my wife and I. Good luck with both of you.
I like your videos and you are right in the US the freedom is a lie
A big one! And we didn't even realize it until we came to Mexico. That's how bad it is!
YEAH I WORK 10-12 HRS/ DAY 6 DAYS A WEEK.
I moved to Belize ., and it's the best thing I ever did., thank yo for making g this video
Thanks for sharing guys! We found it really interesting to hear your perspectives on why you moved and how you've found life in Mexico. We travelled through Mexico at the beginning of the year and before our trip we were binge watching your channel. Your videos were so useful for us in planning our travels.
Now we're living in Nicaragua due to the pandemic and we have found a lot of similarities between life here and your experiences of living in Mexico. We can definitely relate to the excitement of having a breakthrough with Spanish when you have a whole conversation and don't totally muck it up.
OMG! Mexico has been “Very Very Good” to you! Love your out look... Keep up the great times!!!
Great video as always Jordan and Maddie..your channel is my favourite one. LOVE YOU GUYS! I am glad Maddie is now able to eat almost anything in México. GOD BLESS YOU! :-)
Thanks Fernando, that means a lot to us! I think health is the best gift she could've asked for. It's easy to take your health for granted until it's gone.
@@TangerineTravelsYou are right Jordan !! nothing in life is enjoyable if you don´t have good health...you can even be a millionaire..but if you were stranded on a bed or on a wheelchair...or having an oxigen mask for breathing...whatever....nothing would be worth it , nothing matters most than having a good health. May God keep you both always in good health. Blessings my dearest friends ! :-)
Why do Americans prefer to live in Mexico and not in Canada?
@@fernandom6724 Warmer climate; cheaper prices.
Omg, I just found you guys last night & here I am today watching more of your videos, I've already been sharing them, I'm praying to move out of the us. Love your honesty & helpful insights.
I lived in Mexico for 4 years, and it has way more culture than the U.S. Even the little towns in Mexico have life. They feel like mini cities. In the U.S, even the big cities can feel generic ( Houston, Dallas, )and lifeless with the exceptions of New York, San Fran, New Orleans, D.C and a few others.
My small California city rocks.
Joshua LeonardoASMR I live in Dallas & spent the month of July this year in Mexico , I agree with you in Mexico I felt alive with freedom , over here in Dallas I feel like I’m living everyone else’s life smh
Tour NYC from above, below, and on level ground in the John Wick films, with JW4 coming in 2021. Afterwards, you will be even happier in Mexico and just about in every other country around God's wonderful world.
Joshua LeonardoASMR obviously you haven’t been to cali Lmao
@@123abc8027 I have Cali full of traffic, crazy drivers, long lines for everything and same people that only care about cell phones and being rich or "appearing" rich.
What does Laska think about the move to Mexico? Are squirrels and pigeons more fascinating and/or challenging?
Are hydrants much harder to find?
Is the food too spicy or not spicy enough?
Does Laska enjoy the weather?
I would like to know. Thanks guys.
This made us laugh! 😂To this day, we still wonder if she has a hard time communicating with the other dogs here. She does seem to be a big fan of all the smells across the country and Mexican food scraps at the very least.
Miss Mayflower. In Jalapa, Vera Cruz, very few cars or trucks. Stayed at a coffee plantation. But, in Mexico City, COULD NOT BREATHE!!! Depends on where you stay.
Lovely comment I couldn't said it better. Go laska go run run
We had thought about the DR but I have a baby like y'all do. 7pds of fluff. What all did y'all do as far as papers for her?
I'm Mexican and this makes me happy and motivated to move there someday
Don't wait. MX is a big open door.

Estamos contentos de estar aquí en México y libres de cualquier causa que haya causado los problemas en los Estados Unidos. ¡Saludos!
This is the determining video that has made me plan to move to México soon. I completly agree with all you said about living in the US. We have a very materialistic culture and I do feel limited in how I can think- and I feel like culture tells us to stay within the boundaries and "follow the rules," and do things this certain way which I think definitly limits us and makes us stupid because we can't think for ourselves. That's just me but I plan to move to México City in September 2020
Welp, are you still gonna make that move next month? Or did this Covid shit mess that up
I moved to mexico in 2008. With when you get residency buy a house or if you youre married to a mexican citizen buy a house. Bought my house in 2012 and it appreciated 40% in 2020. Im in baja california. Life here has very similarities to the US im surrounded by 3 walmarts and a costco for example and lots of people speak english. I even joined the rotary club. I have to girls now and theres bilingual schools for example montesory type teaching. While these are private schools theyre really similar to the ones in the US with cafeterias gym etc. If you have family that already livethey can help you make the transition. I would also recommend you stay in mexico a month or 2 and do the day to day routine or even air bnb a house for a month or two see if you like it.
One thing I like is all the neighbors now my name and I know them. When we vacation we can leave our dog with our neighbors and we do the same for them. During holloween the block we live in gets together and we organize a party for the kids for after they come back from trick or treating. Something I didnt have back home. Back in california non of the neighbors talked to eachother. Everyone was in its own world.
Maddie, so glad you're better... my goal is to acquire a retirement sweet spot in MX soon!
Selling my house and packing right now!!
Welcome!!

Enjoy Mexico, "the navel of the Moon", its sunny beaches, friendly people, great food, and rich history.
Welcome to Mexico, glad to hear you guys are enjoying living over here😊
You are both great ambassadors, thanks for the tour.
I recommend Duolingo! It's free and it's a really good way to learn Spanish! Trust me! Everyone like so they can see!
Duolingo and Pimsleur together work a treat.
Antonio Sciorra I agree. It doesn’t teach slang words or abbreviations 😂 you’ll stick out unless you learn the local Spanish from your area. Not everyone speak Spanish the same
Andrew Armijo as a Latino I’m learning Japanese it’s actually working for me
I always get sick when I go to the United States... maybe there IS something in the food.
Going to another country will almost always pose the risk of getting sick from unfamiliar bacteria and all that. It very well could also be the f’d up food though.
I use to go and stay in the US 15 days a year. I have never got sick. But food is flavorless. Veggies and berries taste nothing.
@@tonyiznaola True. Veggies and fruit aren't as flavorful. Ironically, every time I've gotten sick going there is because the vegetables
I have a wheat allergy.. I swear it's all the additives. Population control.. Haha
Nano silver.
Your opinion is really interesting, because it is not only from a couple who come on vacation to Mexico and spend a week, but they really left their lives behind to live in the country, so their opinion has more arguments and great courage. Thank you for talking about Mexico from your perspective, without any prejudice.
i've always thought that USA should make it a requirement to do study abroad during highschool senior year or right after.
100% agree.
Me too. In fact I've been thinking that a lot in the past year. We need to get a lot of people educated this way and FAST. Even if we just required a week long field trip to a neighbor country (Cananda / Mexico) it would change our own country. Too many people in the US live in fear of the outside world.
@Tammie Pulley , exactly!
Haha the U.S. government doesn't want us to realize that people in other countries are not inferior to Americans, and that those countries are not inferior to the united States. That illusion has to be preserved to keep us divided and to perpetuate the myth of 'American exceptionalism" and that the U.S. is the "Land of the Free"
Noo, please, not all Americans are good people,
The food in the US has been making me sick for years too.
Thank goodness the foods making me sick (gluten, white sugar, dairy, meat and basically anything that was not certified organic) were also the foods that were making me fat. I lost a buttload of weight when I changed my diet and I feel so much better.
In America it has become the have's and have nots, there is no in between anymore and most people just gripe about it but accept it as the way it has to be.
It's so nice to hear young people validate things I have been saying for years and consequently been getting hated on by a lot of "good Americans".
Thank you for another wonderful video.
Belly rubs for Laska❤
Wow, your commentary on food was an eye opener for me. Freaking scary! Happy for you both that things are better.
I want to move out of the US. Do you have a video that talks about what you did work-wise? Did you leave jobs and work fit yourselves, etc?
They have videos of what they do, which is pretty much youtubing. Very cool!
Welcome to Oaxaca Mexico. 🇲🇽
Great questions. I wonder how ppl do it. Do they woke up one morning and say hey let’s pack and move to Mexico and leave a life behind and start a new one?
Sometimes I go through challenges when I move from an apartment to a different community here in the states. 🤪
On line job, business or sell your property, things and investments and buy something cheap in Mexico and make it a bed and breakfast
You can literally live like a millionaire in Mexico with American money
I am obsessed with getting out of where I live..Arizona or Florida was my first choice, until I watched your videos. I have been to Mexico on a cruise and we ported at Cozumel and I only spent 5 hours there and fell in love. Please do more videos and tips on moving to Mexico. What about jobs there etc
And that would be my question too.
There is a lot of gringos working in Mexico as well from Europe people
And they love it....
Claro Mexico es un amigo 😀
Y necesitas in Poco de español y amigos will be easy to learning in Mexico Lindo y querido 😁
i want to move there too let's move together! hahaha lol
My guess is there aren't many good paying jobs there. Why else would Mexicans be coming to the U.S?
@@tbaker4171 no but with little money you open a business
Good information. I'm about 12 years away from retirement so there is no sense in leaving AZ right now but I have been looking for a new location. I've been re-searching many locations in South America and this is one place I had not heard about until now. Thanks again.
So glad that Maddie' health got better and her diet was more ample because to only be able to eat 5 foods, what were the 5: cauliflower, red cabbage, rice, olive oil and ......forgot the fifth!
Thanks Joe! Me too. When my health was that bad, life was miserable. And the only thing from the 5 you missed was spices :P If it weren't for those, I probably would have gone for-real crazy!
@@TangerineTravels, I just learned rice has a ton of mercury in the US and it's worst if it comes from China. I don't think Mexican soil is that polluted...
