In this video I'm in Mexico City, CDMX! A huge metropolis with over 22 million inhabitants, it's the most populous city in the Americas! I explore Mexico City and its different neighbourhoods like the famous Tepito market, Xochimilco canals, the historic centre and the Teotihuacan pyramids. I also try some of the incredible food including tacos al pastor, migas soup and tortas de chilaquiles. By the end of trip, I feel that the city and the Mexican people have taught me many important lessons; to enjoy the small things in life, never take anything for granted, and always have a positive nature!

Mexico City humbled me, the people there enjoy the small things in life, no matter how much or how little they have, life feels more real and raw, and more simplistically happy than many Westernised cities if that makes sense. Have you ever been, what do you think of it?

I don't know why, despite creating such a beautiful content, Malini hasn't able to gather views that she truly deserves.
I would recommend and request reach out countries in APAC region.
Keep it up and don't bother. Good things take time.
Best wishes

Mexico changed my life. I had never been as happy and at peace as I was in Mexico.
Where are you from ?
Louisiana, United States of America
CAN I ASK WHY DOES MEXICO CHANGE YOUR LIFE SIR??
I live in Northern California and I felt safer in Mexico

whats wrong with yours
@@chrisbennett6260 We appreciate Mexican Culture but We like ours as well, Culturally speaking Mexico is like Colombia Best friend
@@chrisbennett6260 there's nothing wrong with our culture, Our culture is very compatible with Mexican culture if countries were people Mexico would be Colombia's best friend
I`m from Brazil and lived there in 2018 and the beginning of 2019. I love Mexico City. Lived in Narvarte Poniente y Santa Maria La Ribera. Loved the El Vilsito. Lots of cool Museums, lots of foods, mezcal, cervezas, micheladas, tequilas, chilaquiles, tacos, pozoles, laughter, friends. Extrano muchissimo mi secunda ciudad. Saludos de Brasil.
Seja bem-vindo quando vc quiser! Eu fui pro Brasil de ferias e adorei o carnaval e a galera mesmo, abraço
I love Mexico and Mexican Culture!Love from Italian City Belluno little Town Cencenighe Agordino Dolomiti Mountains Area !🇮🇹❤🇲🇽

Amo L’italia
Tuve la oportunidad de recorrer 43 paises y ninguna ciudad en el mundo tiene la versatilidad que tiene la maravillosa Ciudad de México
Thank you so so much! I am a French Parisian living in London and I adore Mexico City ❤
Mexicans are often portrayed as vilains but we couldn’t be further away from the truth! The most friendly kind and generous people I have ever met
CDMx is a treasure chest that keeps on giving ❤
Of course it has its problems and we are all more than aware but Mexico and Mexico City are a lot more than this …
Little story … During my travels with my daughter I met a couple of Mexicans in Stockholm Sweden I was already very interested in Mexican culture and Mexico, I had to ask them many questions my curiosity got the better of me… We became friends one day they sent me a plane ticket to come meet them in Mexico City they said don’t worry about anything we will look after you! Sure enough they did I fell in love with cdmx,Mexico and Mexicans! Few months later both families joined forces celebrating Christmas in their hometown of Guadalajara ❤
Ever since we keep on going back for more there is so much to see, discover and do! This country is such a Gem and so beautiful! The history, the people the food the culture such a beautiful place.
I actually got hooked on your Chanel because of your Tulum episode … I was fed up to hear all this crap about Tulum … I love Tulum and I loved your episode so much I love the way you tackle places with this intimacy as you approach the locals on all your travels ! I’m glad to see you see what I see in Mexico & Mexicans Mexico is truly magical place!
You ve done a great job once again but there is so much more to Mexico and Mexico City!
I’m hoping you will do more Mexico travels 🙏🏼
Thank you my dear your hard work is much appreciated
Sabrina 🇫🇷🇬🇧
Thanks for sharing your story, Mexicans are the nicest people!! Hope you get to go back again soon

A los mexicanos nos importa un rábano lo que digan ustedes
@@jonathanglzplz894no seas grosero
Nice to hear nice words about my country Mexico and like we say mi CASA ES TU CASA ❤❤❤
People in CDMX work their butts off and know how to hustle. The service from the eateries is incredible. And they dont act entitled.
Very true
And they.never.beg for tips or expect 15 20 30 40% like in the US even they deserve it a lot more...
Service is very entitled word by the way😉

The most underrated Metropolis in the world. The culture, people, and diversity are unmatched. A must see for any traveler.
Soy Pedro de Querétaro. Me encanta. Que a ustedes les gusta mí México, disfruten de nuestro México
Qué hermoso fue ver a mi México a través de tus ojos. Pocas veces valoramos la belleza y simpleza de nuestro México y la damos por sentada sin darnos cuenta, que como tú dices, importa poco lo mucho o poco que tengamos, todos en México vivimos en un enorme paraíso lleno de gente hermosa.
Love ❤for Mexico and CDMX ,beautiful people beautiful country love from Egypt. P.S I married a jarrocha 20 years ago best decision of my life.
Jarocha * mate she from Veracruz
WITHOUT A DOUBT MEXICO IS BEEN CLIMBING THE RANKS VERY TALENTED PEOPLE THEIR FOOD IS WORLD RENOWNED AND THE PEOPLE.. VIVA MEXICO FROM NEW YORK.. I WANT TO RETIRE THEIR.. AND THE WOMEN OF GUADALAJARA CHIHUAHUA ARE BEAUTIFUL TOO❤❤
As a Mexico City local I can say that the research behind this documentary is amazing. You stayed away from the tourist version of the city and straight to the real heart of the city. I was actually very impressed. Also those Xochimilco's morning shots.. wow! beautiful. Congratulations for the outstanding job!
Mexico is something else. When I went there for a friend's wedding I came back to Australia
(I'm of Spanish and Peruvian heritage) and immediately told my wife I wanted to move there. Unfortunately, we couldn't leave because of Covid.
Love and happiness in Mexico are more sincere than it is in the US 🇲🇽🤘🏾
Incredible short documentary, I lived there for over a year in two periods in the mid 2010s and I'm planning to go back later this year. On another note, the editing, music, B-roll was fantastic, and just the type of independent docu-making I'd like to do in the future. Keep it up Malini and partner!
Glad you enjoyed it!
By far one of my favorite destination! Viva México, thank you. 🙏💕
Mine too!
I am happy that finally after so many decades Mexico City is being recognized as a reference. Chilangos are some of the most resilient societies in the world because we live in an asphalt jungle, experiencing life amidst infernal traffic, earthquakes, and crime. Despite how challenging life can be for many, you will always see people with a smile and the best disposition. We are a city of bizarre and friendly people, the capital of a country so surreal that Salvador Dalí said he would not return to a country more surreal than his paintings. It's hard to believe that about 20 years ago, Chilangos had to make the greatest effort to convince people to visit our city, and now we even feel overwhelmed by so much tourism and digital nomads, but well, it's the price of success. As a famous radio announcer from Mexico City would say, welcome to the apocalyptic Mexico City. Lastly, I quote Roberto Bolaños and his book "The Savage Detectives," which said: "when all civilized world disappears, Mexico will still exist, when the planet fades or disintegrates, Mexico will still be Mexico."
Well said! 🤍
Mexico is such a Vibe🎉❤
MEXICO ONE OF THE BEST CONTRY IN THE WORLD. HAVE EVERYTHING GOOD POEPLE GOOD FOOD. THE BEST.
Super excited for this. I lived in CDMX until I was 8. My mom was born and raised there. Forever in my heart!
Your enjoyment of food and drink is phenomenal and you are always among the common people.👏🏻Your episodes always make me hungry!🙂
Haha, thank you, I do love good food and drink 😊 and hanging out with the locals!
@@Malini.Angelica You have an awesome job!🙂
¿ de cual pais eres Malini?
Excelente e interedante video felicidades
Tu pronunciación de los nombres en náhuatl es perfecta! 🎉 Incluso muchos en México no pronunciamos correctamente! Felicidades por tu trabajo!!!! Saludos desde. Veracruz!
Gracias!
Ditto
Fell in love with CDMX many years ago on a whim of a road trip (all the way from Chicago LOL) and it still calls me- hopefully I can go back someday soon. Thanks for this Malini! Viva Mexico!
I hope so too!
Beautiful presentation & video . Namaskar from an Indian city !😊
Im so happy you came to visit our City. I mean is crowded, an loud and full of colours but I swear I havent found another place in the world with such a good sense of humor. And thats why I love my Mexico City so so much 🇲🇽
Some of the rural areas don’t even have potable water to take showers 😂
@@josem.2909 In the United States it is the same, many areas do not have basic services.
Thank You Malini ! this is the true Mexico
Absolutely!
My heart is full of joy knowing that you like my chaotic city. We are friendly and kind people like you said. We have a lot of culture, places and gastronomy throughout the country, each state is like a different country. 🇲🇽🔥 I love my entire country.
Graciasb
Ahuuuuua!! Thanks for your video, I've been living in UK and Europe for 6 years, so refreshing to have a glance of my people, my sunlight, my food and reminding me that you can find party vibes even in the cue for a torta in the corner.
Thanks for sharing!!
So glad you went straight to the soul of Mexico, the everyday spaces, and not the usual posh and digital-nomad lifestyle places. You will be blown away for the other Mexicos too, the other states.
Mexico 🇲🇽🇲🇽 is one of my personal favorite countries to try both visit and live in someday coming from the Philippines. 😊❤
I love how accurate what you said about the people of 🇲🇽
Malini you cease to amaze me ….what an awesome presentation on Mexico 🇲🇽….Love this video and Thanks for sharing….until next time ……Alex🇬🇷
My pleasure!!
You wonderfully captured some of the biggest reasons why I love DF - the people, the food, the energy. Thank you for going deeper than the surface level beauty of La Roma y Condesa or the danger of the cartels and showing the world why this city is such a special place
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 🙏
Im from Mexico city, grow up complaining about it until i move out …. Then i miss it terribly, and when a traveled around the wold I realize how great the city actually is , a must see for any traveller , just plan it very well , place is huge and theres so much to see,honestly will take you a life time to know it all. Highly recommended
Great video, so vibrant and colourful. Love the music! Bringing back memories of being in Mexico. Very creative and beautiful work from you two. It just gets better x
Thanks for watching Diana! I hope everything is going well in the IOW xx
Thank you so much for showing our beautiful Mexico City and our culture so much love and support, it is greatly appreciated it very well done! Gracias!!
You’re welcome!
@@Malini.Angelica Thank you 🙏🏼
You keep raising the bar of your storytelling, photography and editing. I love your aura. Lovely - thanks! 🙏🏼☮️ Netflix, or whomever, should really give you a series! I have been to Mexico City, and loved it. Your video reminds me I need to visit again. So much to see and do there. 🇲🇽
Thank you so much!
You really did a great job, i usually hate this kind of videos from foreigners saying “OMG is so cheaaapp and looks like europe but hotter, i will definitely consider this as my retire cityyyy” but you impressed me 👋🏽
Glad you enjoyed it!
El mejor video que he visto de viajeros en MX tuvsi sabes capturar la esencia y sencillez de la ciudad y la gente felicidades.
So true. She real embraced the mystical side of CDMX.
What a vibe . What a place. Just awesome
eating all day and getting lit every night. this lady is about to do big numbers.
THANKS FROM MÉXICO!!!...YOU'R BEAUTIFUL LIKE MY CDMX...
Thank you too!
Such a beautiful, life affirming film. It made me so happy yet also moved me to tears. Thank you, both of you. You are stars xxx
me dio ternura cómo se comió su taquito al pastor como si fuera chalupita 🥹
Amazing tour, really symbolic places, Pulqueria the best experience , real mexican.
The best!
My favorite city 🙌🏾
I visit Mexico City every year…
I love it! Great video by the way. Great video
Awesome! Thank you!
New subscriber here. I was hooked watching this video from the very first minute with your beautiful videography and narration, with your beautifully pronounced Nahuatl names and the accurate historical information you shared being just a BIG plus! And I’m excited to be in Mexico City for the second time next week! More success and safe travels for you!!
Awesome, thank you!
I was born in Mexico, but a US citizen and I used to be embarrassed of the vaccine scar I have on my right arm, but going to Mexico often has made me proud of who I am ❤
Beautiful vlog full of honesty and a genuine heartfelt love of amazing Mexico…. Very well done …. Wonderful to watch 🇲🇽❤️
Thank you so much!
What a beautiful documentary you have made! You just caught the perfect moments that describe the beauty of Mexico! Very well done!
Thank you Malina for showing my country through your perspective. Everybody is welcome to enjoy our country and culture with respect.
Gracias por enseñar mi paid ante el mundo…..thanks for sowing mi country to the world.🌹🇲🇽
you are right angelica, the city looks angelic🎉
America’s long lost brother???? No way!!!! This country has something USA has tried to buy with money: CULTURE!
Mexico city looks like it's packed full of good energy and the mexican people are so happy embracing their traditions I think it's fair to say it's a must visit destination. 🫶
It really is!
Este vídeo es muy diferente al promedio de otros canales
Mientras estos últimos realizan vídeos más comerciales, este vídeo es más íntimo, artístico y espiritual.
Hoy reparé en el mundo mágico y alegre de las trajineras de Xochimilco, comparadas con las aburridas e insípidas góndolas de Venecia. Ambas son parecidas, pero irónicamente, a años luz de distancia entre sí.
Another brilliant video, the places you go to are most certainly off the beaten track, thank you so much for being brave and exploring!
Me gusto mucho tu video como presentaste nuestro Mexico, y el toque que le diste con tus encantos. Gracias!
Nadie nunca explicó tan bién la caída de un meteorito. Ni tampoco nunca se ha mostrado un lago tan mágico de forma tan interesante.
Es mi video ( no musical)... favorito de UA-cam. Es mejor que muchas películas.
Gracias 🙌🙌
Who say's they're all struggling? A lot of people have money there, own homes, businesses, are professionals. Also a chilango is someone who moved to Mexico City from another state. A person who was born in the city is a "Capitalino" and someone born in the state of mexico is a mexiquense...
Great comment. Thank you.
I don’t think anyone said that.
Excelenteeee Video !!! Viva Mexico !!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Saludos desde Miami!!!
Nunca había visto a esta mujer... woww está guapérrima!
from Tijuana B.C man its a beautiful video! Top #1 you have won a new subscriber
Thanks for the sub!
La Ciudad de México es Impresionante!!
Si!!
Somehow before you said it I knew you were going to Xochimilco…. I also have the song Cielito Lindo as my favorite ❤️
This is another such a great video from you .
Thanks 💕⚘️💕⚘️💕⚘️
Thank you so glad to hear you enjoyed the video, thanks for commenting! 🤍🤍🤍
Angelica: congrats for this short documentary wich perfectly captures the soul of Mexico 🇲🇽 and Mexico City.
I Lived in Mexico City for 7 years and as your video accurately portrays: it is full of colors, flavors, music, dance, and life all day, everywhere. Life never stops there.
And the people, they are really the most solidary, helpful nice and welcoming towards foreigners and visitors.
God bless and long live Mexico 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽.
And Regards and welcome to all our brothers from Latin America 🇨🇴🇧🇷🇦🇷 and The rest of the world 🇪🇸 🇨🇳 🇪🇬 🌍.
23:20 you really went for it, didn't you? "drinking history" was comedic perfection.
😅
the filmmaking, cinematography and editing is extraordinary!
Thank you 💙💙
Que bonito es mi México querido. Me siento orgulloso de ser mexicano y de nuestra hermosa cultura.
Mexicans are awesome!!! Loved it. Thank you so much! Viva Mexico cabr......nes!!!
Wish you'd talked to that giant man in the bar. That dude is huge! Looks like an owner or manager.
I did, he spoke great English, but he doesn’t work there
Primer video que veo de tu canal... i loved
Muchas gracias 🙏
The US lacks what Mexico has. A soul
Absolutely.
As an American living in the UK, the US is to the the UK, what Mexico is to the US.
Soul? Have you ever been to New Orleans?
? Tell that to the tens of thousands of migrants coming in to the US daily. Please
Mehhh, USA has all it's own music trends, and sports 😂 we're always gonna do our own thing
🐀😎🦾🔥🇺🇲
Good afternoon Malini Angelica ❤️🇲🇽🦾😇🌹👋
Malini, this was superb! And, it ended on such a positive note but also mystical and mysterious. Thank you so much for bringing these stories to life.
Gracias por tu video documental, It was excellent!
Just another excellent presentation, Malini!
What straggle? They are more happy than ever. As Mexican I know that part very well
Thank you Malini, love your style keep it up. Will follow you for ever
Enjoy the Americas!
The thing is that europeans, in México, mixed with natives therefore, we developed our culture keeping our native roots. Whereas, in the US, natives were either killed or separated. That is why we are so different.
Interesante!
WOW...!!! Quite a good video you are a true traveler and a great social communicator... Very very very good job, you captured the soul of this great city,.. congratulations and my best regards...🇲🇽
Thank you very much!
Yes, I too share your thesis on what Mexico can teach the US; however, you cannot force-feed knowledge to anyone. The US as a whole does not want to learn. They are all convinced they have the formula for greatness and the monopoly on happiness, even when confronted with clear evidence to the contrary. Great job on the video and the storytelling--I subscribed and look forward to exploring your other videos! Cheers!
Thanks a lot!
I’m surprised how many views this channel gets because most travels today are not authentic.The videos they put out are very cheesy and more of the same thing.But when I watch this UA-cam channel I always learn something new that I didn’t know before I always gain knowledge and that matters the most more than anything else.
Thank you and happy to hear you enjoy them!
Absolutely brilliant & beautiful video Malini! Me encanta Mexico!! En mi cuerpo soy gringo pero en corazon y alma soy de Mexico - Viva!!
It’s not hard to fall in love with Mexico!! Thank you 🙏
Thank you for displaying the Mexican culture and the Mexican people in your channel. I love your videos and how professional and serious you are about your journalism. Great job!
Thank you so much!
Malini, your video opens with " 22 million people struggling to survive everyday in Mexico city" .... yet people looked so happy, you were even singing along cielito lindo .... What I find very interesting is how foreigners have a set mentality of Mexico, and despite the fact Mexico as a country and Mexico city is doing and performing by far way better than London city or the UK as a whole, the idea is that Mexico is a country where people are in the daily struggle to survive .... But I do see you had the time of your life in Mexico city, and I am happy for you. cheers.
If you heard what I say at the end of the video, it’s a beautiful will to live, however if you have been to Mexico City and Mexico in general then yes you will absolutely see that most people do struggle to make ends meet, you cannot compare it to the UK at all, but even with very little compared to what people have in the UK, they are content people. It’s not a mentality of foreigners, it’s very much a reality.
Viva México Lindo 🙏🌹🇲🇽❤️🙏
I LOVE THISSSSSSSSSSSSSS I HAVE BEEN WAITING THIS VIDEO SINCE I KNEW YOUR CHANNEL
Gracias por hablar tan bonito de este maravilloso país. Ahora visita los 31 estados restantes llenos de historia.
What a great urban and cultural documentary! Very well structured, in depth in-cultured review of some popular aspects of Mexico City, using a superb narrative in a very well spoken English and also with some Spanish Mexican slang. Congratulations Angelica!
Just a respectful historical and conceptual clarification: New Spain was never a Colony. It was a Viceroyalty, concepts that are quite different, one from the other.
New Spain had indigenous representatives in the imperial court in Madrid.
It was a large economy, a set of continental provinces, captaincies, over seas provinces (such as the Marianne Islands) with judiciary, military and legislative representatives coordinated by a Viceroy.
Not a mere Colony but a large nation strongly affiliated and relevant part of the Spanish empire.
Thanks for sharing!
Another great video, Malini and crew. Mil gracias. Living in CDMX many moons ago taught me the deep meaning of hospitality and social generosity. People invite others in all around. Your pronunciation of Nahuatl words is excellent.
Our pleasure! Thank you
Great video!!! Thank you very much for your awesome narrative it makes me want to go
Glad you enjoyed it!
MALINI IS THE BEST
Hermoso documental. Esto es el México real
Gracias 🙏
Hermoso tu video, tu exposición de la gran Tenochtitlan,CDMX y Hombligo de la Luna. Felicitaciones
Muchas gracias!
I enjoyed this video, I will plan to visit Mexico City, Gorgeous voice and very nice looking, Malini. (From the U.S - Atlanta, Georgia, C W)
Have fun!
