Thank you Maddie and Jordan I thought you'd get a laugh at that one. You are the greatest and keep doing what you do it's appreciated by all. Happy new year.
Dogs are wonderful - I was in Mex. leaving the condo and a little black street dog magically appeared from under a car and was DESPERATE and hungry - I was able to give her a can of tuna and took a walk, but on my return she was curled up in the doorway waiting for me. I took her in and had to take local buses back to the border on my return - but I kept her and she's been the most loving and adoring dog EVER - a joy to have her in our lives. She's at my feet now and Princess is always saving some doggy bones in her "bank".
Thank you so much for doing that. When we arrived in Chapala we had our 2 cats we brought from Florida. When we moved back to Florida 1 1/2 years later we had our 2 cats and 2 street dogs we brought back with us. We love spoiling them and they are family members now.❤️❤️
I’m so sorry to hear about your video bomb. I think your content is good you probably need to take in consideration what is going on in the world right now you shouldn’t be so hard on yourselves I love you and Laurie God Bless you both and keep you safe
Yes to the husky! Christmas video: I would guess that most of us were tending more to our own personal celebrations (no matter how small / limited due to covid). Nothing personal, but probably low UA-cam views across-the-board. I still appreciated the Christmas post!
I think some of us would like to watch Lori craft one of those great shirts of yours! ;) Also, are there craft stores there, or can you order items from Amazon? It would be interesting to hear from other expats that do crafts, if they are able to sell them and, if so, where? Happy New Year, you two.
Jerry & Laurie, I enjoy your videos and since you asked, I'd like to see more interviews...ex-pats, tourists and local Mexican people. All would be interesting. I've also liked watching your home tours and hearing the prices of things, also grocery store and farmers market tours. You do a great job and all your topics have been interesting. Happy New Year, Nancy Oh
Thanks for creating this video on Spanish and Go. Learning these simple phrases and building on them is the way to go. I will be attending one of the retreats when available. Thanks so much! And, Happy New Year!!
Jr. Is correct about following Covid Protocols! You and Jim were wearing no mask and sitting inches apart. Please show a little respect by not endangering the health of those around you. I have lived in Chapala for 18 years, the virus is getting worse and we need people like you and Jim to set good examples for your UA-cam followers.
Yes it was surprising to see you two feet away from each other with no masks on. That is very dangerous! I'm glad to hear that you understand that and hopefully will social distance and wear your masks when in public from now on - even outside!. I love your channel and enjoyed your Christmas video, sorry it didn't do well.
As a resident of the area, I fully agree that someone like Jerry and Laurie and Jim should be setting good examples. The expat community (predominately retirement age) here is prime target for the virus, and when we are getting close to a vaccine and hopefully getting it under control it is not the time to get lax about smart safety measures. I'm glad that Jerry responded favorably to your comment.
I think your videos are so professional. You are always so kind and interesting. Love your videos. I was busy around Christmas time. Sorry you bombed. Everyone bombs sometimes.
Have you seen these videos? WHY We Chose Mexico:Jerry & lori ua-cam.com/video/fEKv6enUhTQ/v-deo.html Lori Organic Garden ua-cam.com/video/CVfI_ZS9fYM/v-deo.html
ooo kale...i love gardening too,Lori....one day i want meeting with you,showing your garden and Ajijic... Wish for you the best health and happiness for New the New Year 2021....Feliz anio nueva...
I watched that Christmas day video and I gave you a thumbs up!!!!! How dare that nasty person clicking down. I love seeing you guys and your info ...keep on posting! I'd like videos about places to rent monthly...places with swimming pools. Or activities to do there...which you have already done I know.
Mexico's metro area hospital beds are expected to be 50% beyond capacity in two weeks. UA-camrs must start leading with science and wear your masks while keeping your distance to others, even when outdoors. No dining with others outside your household. This is not policing this is science, in a Pandemic for health sakes. Respect health care workers and others by following Covid protocols at all times. Expats set an example!
Love that doggie💝 he looks so sweet😃missed that clip! Wish I could have seen it on xmas! Good cooking outside👍very nice looks like they are opened up again! Restaurants open!😱 such warm weather you have there, it's so cold up north here❄️❄️🌲🌲🌲nice to have a good Spanish teacher👍 are hotels open too?
Happy New Year to you both. I like when you highlight other businesses services that would be of value to expats. You do an excellent job of introducing us to the nuts & bolts of expat necessities. It will be while before I can come back due to the pandemic, but when I am there, I love to take classes. How about teaming up with some cooking classes and artists? I’d like to what you can learn, how long a class or series of classes might be and what the approximate cost might be. I love the idea of the immersion Spanish experience. Restaurant reviews are also appreciated with perhaps and idea of what some of the menu items are. I learned how to make Aguascalientes Fresca from you tube videos. If any of the restaurants or food vendor might be willing to show you how their specialty is made, that might be fun. Also, consider setting up a way to make one-time payments. I love your videos & would like to contribute, but I don’t want to sign on to a monthly expense. Keep up the good work, & here’s to a happy & healthy 2021!
Happy New Year to you and Lori.Thsnks to you I found an apartment for 297 in Merida.It was fate I ran into you.I will be starting my business soon.I am making sure I can comfortably proceed.
I own a small law firm in Ajijic and we specialize in expat questions and requirements. Most of our service is free, I've retired here and and am spending the rest of my life giving back to the community and the people here. If you are new to the area or plan to move here, my team at SEVEN SPANISH ANGELS would be glad to help. We are located across the street from Lake Chapala Society, long known for its service to expats. Find us on Facebook. Buenos Dias.
Love your videos!!! We enjoyed the Christmas video. What a difference a year makes.....Lori I just love your dresses and the fabric is sooo colorful.It makes me happy. Jerry my husband enjoys your hats. Do you purchase the in Ajijic or are they purchased everywhere you travel? Here’s wishes you happy video adventures and excellent health! Happy New Year too!
A good place to visit is the Bernabe artisan pottery store in Tonala. The history of their family & craft is amazing. I was introduced to them on a Charter Club tour and have since brought other Americans and our Mexican driver there. All were thrilled with the experience. Like many other artisans, they face being undercut by Chinese mass produced knock offs. Highlighting the local artisans is important to the continuation of their art.
I’d like to see you and Lori grocery shopping and showing the costs. Maybe another garden tour. Also cost of restaurant meals. For example you are at a restaurant in this video and could share what the cost was.I hope Lori wasn’t picking someone’s plants 🌱 oops 😬Cooking class good idea.
love you guys! have been watching you for a few months now. My question is due to the pandemic how safe is it down there right now? I live in WI and have a few years before I retire (3?) but would like to come and begin visiting- checking things out...
Sorry to hear about your Christmas video. I did watch it, but it wasn't within that three-hour UA-cam window. That sounds awfully restrictive in terms of a video's popularity. For the record I enjoyed the Christmas video, and recognize the work put into it. In terms of a suggestion, as a gay man thinking about retiring in Ajijic/Chapala an interview with a gay person or couple would be nice. I have visited Ajijic and spent a number of days there and I think I know "a little" about the gay community there. I'll grant you that this sort of video may likely appeal to a small demographic.
Excuse me for butting in but to roughly figure out the Mexican exchange drop the last zero ($500 to $$50) then take half . So $500 pesos is about $25 depending on exchange rates that fluctuate daily. Hope this helps. Happy New Year!
Yes 500 pesos is $25 that was a very generous gift so now with our match we will have $50 to give back to the poor Mexican families through our Patreon account. You're interested you can check it out here. Patreon: www.patreon.com/jerrybrowntravels
You should definitely adopt that husky immediately. If it's a boy, name him Lasko lol
Thank you Maddie and Jordan I thought you'd get a laugh at that one. You are the greatest and keep doing what you do it's appreciated by all. Happy new year.

Nice dog. Usually those dogs are very well socialized and behaved.
I’m so sorry to hear about your video bomb. I think your content is good you probably need to take in consideration what is going on in the world right now you shouldn’t be so hard on yourselves I love you and Laurie God Bless you both and keep you safe
I agree with Mary! I also consider it was released on the holidays which would have been a competing factor!
I love to see the streets of Ajijic like this video thank you Jerry
Thanks for another great video. Beautiful dog.
Happy New Year to you and Lori.
Thank you too
Maybe do a video on buses between Ajijic and Chapala and to the old central bus station in Guadalajara.
Last Christmas was a bummer for a lot of friends and families. To a better 2021. :)
And I loved your interview with Jim. And I love Maddie & Jordan and Laska too!
Laurie you’re so cute and resourceful
Yes to the husky! Christmas video: I would guess that most of us were tending more to our own personal celebrations (no matter how small / limited due to covid). Nothing personal, but probably low UA-cam views across-the-board. I still appreciated the Christmas post!

Nice to see the cross-pollination among the different Mexico UA-cam influencers! Fun!!
The best!
I like when you show rentals that allow pets. No pets. No go. Lol.❤️🐾

That would be very interesting to see you a create a video on harvesting Lake Chapala edible plants and herbs from the streets and mountains!
Great suggestion!
Yes Lori - cooking classes - please!
You got it!
Great video. I especially like the ending.
Glad you enjoyed it
Happy New Year to you and Lori.Thsnks to you I found an apartment for 297 in Merida.It was fate I ran into you.I will be starting my business soon.I am making sure I can comfortably proceed.

I took Spanish classes with Nadia Chavez, Calle Constitucion 75, and she is excellent. You two should try it.
Maybe you didn’t get much response on Christmas because people were busy with their families and not on line!
Just subscribed
Love your videos!!! We enjoyed the Christmas video. What a difference a year makes.....Lori I just love your dresses and the fabric is sooo colorful.It makes me happy. Jerry my husband enjoys your hats. Do you purchase the in Ajijic or are they purchased everywhere you travel? Here’s wishes you happy video adventures and excellent health! Happy New Year too!
Thank you for those nice words. My hats are all from Mexico and all of my shirts are custom designed by Lori and I and Lori does the sewing.
A good place to visit is the Bernabe artisan pottery store in Tonala. The history of their family & craft is amazing.

We enjoy going to Tonala and when our friends come to visit we always take them there.
Thank you Jerry, I'll check out for my kids! And would you do a video on the requirements to be able to rents?
I have two husky in lomita California
I’d like to see you and Lori grocery shopping and showing the costs. Maybe another garden tour. Also cost of restaurant meals. For example you are at a restaurant in this video and could share what the cost was.I hope Lori wasn’t picking someone’s plants 🌱 oops 😬Cooking class good idea.
Great idea!! Will put that on the to do list thank you
Lori I think those were collard greens love.
love you guys! have been watching you for a few months now. My question is due to the pandemic how safe is it down there right now? I live in WI and have a few years before I retire (3?) but would like to come and begin visiting- checking things out...
The pandemic is spreading here in Mexico. As an example we are not doing any traveling in Mexico at all.
Art galleries please
Sorry to hear about your Christmas video. I did watch it, but it wasn't within that three-hour UA-cam window. That sounds awfully restrictive in terms of a video's popularity. For the record I enjoyed the Christmas video, and recognize the work put into it.
In terms of a suggestion, as a gay man thinking about retiring in Ajijic/Chapala an interview with a gay person or couple would be nice.

How much is 500 pesos? Jerry
Excuse me for butting in but to roughly figure out the Mexican exchange drop the last zero ($500 to $$50) then take half . So $500 pesos is about $25 depending on exchange rates that fluctuate daily. Hope this helps. Happy New Year!

How about food or Laurie cooking.Restaurant food.
I see you & Lori are dining out at a restaurant patio in this video. Feeling a little more confident on being out and about these days?
You're choosing restaurants that are outside.
Happy New Year! That so doesn't look like kale to me...not like what we get here in the U.S. I wonder if it's a type of chard?.And...yes to the husky!
Happy new year!
I never saw....though I will say you don’t respond to me like others.
I love having breakfast there. I miss it this winter.
So good
No masks???
DOGS PEE ON THAT!
WHY NO MASKS ?
