    Please check out Bianca Graulau's story about Oaxaca. I don't recommend visiting there with everything going on with the mistreatment of the native people there, all to accommodate tourists. The money they gain from tourism doesn't even go to help the citizens there. Instead, tourism only hurts the native communities there.

    Great video and the scenes from Hierve del agua is insane 19:39 I recently spent 2 weeks in Oaxaca and Hierve el agua was one of my favorite places.

    You know, you can change the radio in your car so it has bluetooth, CarPlay, and ability to play music from USB drives. 😊. I did that with my 2003 Subaru Outback which originally came with a CD player when I bought the car brand new. Anyway, I enjoyed your video as always. Terrific presentation and love the joyful energy both of you have.

    • @nicoleandmico
      @nicoleandmico  4 месяца назад +1

      Yes we actually considered that upgrade when we were back in Canada. However we wanted to make the car as stealth as possible and we didn’t want anyone looking inside to see anything of value so ultimately we decided against it. Thanks for the suggestion though. We certainly do miss having a more modern radio and nav setup haha 😂 thanks for watching 😊

    Hey, kids! Nice overview of Oaxaca de Juárez. The place where you stayed, hosted on AirBnB is titled "Bright studio with mountain view and 500 Mbps" and if you click on the host, Marcos, you will see his mezcal listing and two other properties. Your video has prompted my wife and I to consider a visit, since Europe is so expensive and crowded.

    Do not spend money in Oaxaca until workers start getting paid a fair wage. Water is cut off to the small outposts where workers live and transit 3+ hours in order to supply to $1000/night hotels for tourists

    So sad how tourism has destroyed this town for the people who live there. They have water only twice a week and they are paid so poorly despite the money the resorts make. Maybe you should organize a group to go there and protest for fairer conditions for the people who live there. That would be worthy of making the money the money from RUclips instead is becoming part of the problem. 🤔

    go away tourists. This type of tourism is making life impossible for locals. If you're gonna post, get informed about the social and environmental problems that tourism is causing here. Have you notice that everyone in the city has limited water? did your airbnb limited the use of water to you or at least recommended to use it wisely? People is suffering here, the reality is contrary to what you show here all pretty stuff.

      Este comentario no es productivo. Yo naci y creci en un lugar turistico, y lamento que es cierto que muchas veces el turismo irresponsable es dañino para los locales y la naturaleza, pero pienso que ellos viajan con mucho respeto por los lugares que conocen y no merecen este trato. Si vivis en Mexico y tu pais (tu gobierno) no se ocupa de los deberes que le corresponden, no controla correctamente el turismo como politica de estado y ademas muchos locales se benefician economicamente con este turismo, no le heches la culpa a los turistas que van de buena fe a visitar un lugar del que no saben OBVIAMENTE los problemas que tienen los locales. Enojate con quien les alquiló el airbnb, ahi lo tienes, enojate con el turista que va y tira basura, pero es una estupidez este comentario😂 guys, I love your videos, keep going!

    There's no water in Oaxaca, water is trucked into the hotels and resorts from communities outside Oaxaca, members of the communities have to compete for water with the hotels. The majority of the city only has water a few hours a day, a few days a week or they are forced to buy water.
    Locals have to commute sometimes several hours each way due to dramatic increases in housing costs in the city, an employee in one of the hotels earns $75-$100 a week and can not afford to live in Oaxaca because wealthy Mexican investors (one a particular family) are exploiting Oaxaca.
    Journalists are now being punished for reporting on these matters in Mexico and the US.
    Nicole and Mico have no business not telling you the truth about places they visit and the problems locals face having to deal with tourists and tourism.
    In general tourist are not well liked and are only tolerated because of the vast sums of money they spend.
    BTW, I have some advice, 'never vacation in a third world country'.

    See the natives dying of thirst while your hotels pay to pump out the local aquifers. Oaxaca is suffering drought, and is in the future killer heat belt of global warming. Do not worry about that, spend the money, burn the jet fuel, waste the water, human civilization is short.

    With all respect, your husband looks a lot like Erasmo Catarino, the winner of a music contest similar to American Idol. And this confirms my theory that indigenous people have Asian Ancestry. I am 100% indigenous and everyone has always mistaken me for Malaysian, Indonesian, Philippine, or Thai. Because of my very brown skin no one has ever mistaken me for Korean, Japanese or Chinese but everyone thinks I come from where the brown skinned Asians are from. And also tons have told me if I am Hawaiian or a Native American. So, I think there’s so missing part of the story that nobody has told us and the truth is that way before the European conquest in the Americas, Asians and Black people had inhabited these lands previously already. Proof of my theory is the Olmecs which is one of the most impressive ancient civilizations that inhabited the Americas way before the Europeans arrived and they got African features. If you mix a black person and an Asian the result is me. Someone that looks like a Native American / Indigenous . But of course, the real story was manipulated to make us think other story that just doesn’t fit.
