Hello, I,m Eduardo, I, am a RUclipsr too, welcome to Aguascalientes, my channel is VOLANDO VOY VLOG, and I have section in my channel , the name is EXTRANJEROS EN AGUASCALIENTES, foreigner in Aguascalientes, I would like to interview you, if you want it. , have good day.
Hi Eduardo, Thank you for the welcome to beautiful Aguascalientes:-). We know of your channel as we have seen a few of your videos ~ nice work:-). Do you have standard questions you typically ask in the interview? You can reach us via our business email to tell us a bit more. Gracias Eduardo.
Invite me to one of your vids!!!! Please I live in aguascalientes !
@@elviraosorio5222 😆😉 Why do you want to be on YT? What would you say to the world?
Zacatecas is pretty but is not safe.😢
That’s what I love about you guys. You want to be a part of the culture and the people. Not force our U.S. ways on other cultures. That’s what it’s all about….being respectful and a part of where you live. Thank you for being real. Love you
Thanks for the kind comment Anita. 🙏
Toda la gente que venga a aportar cosas positivas es bienvenida y que bueno que elijieron vivir por un tiempo aquí en esta hermosa cd.
🙏 Antonio.
I was born here in Aguascalientes, I've been living here 80% of my life, and I want to thank you guys for this fresh perspective of my city, as seen from your eyes.
Welcome, I hope you have a great time here, I hope you enjoy the Feria de San Marcos in a few days, and continue to explore and discover this city.
Thanks for your comment and warm welcome Vertebreaker. 🙏 Nice...so you live here in Aguascalientes. What are some of the things you love, and maybe some things you don't like about the city? We ask as you were born and raised here and we would love to hear your thoughts.
I've been preparing my life to move to Aguas in the coming year. I had a great tour guide spend a couple days with us there and loved the city.
Being born in Mexico and watching you guys showing the people and culture mad love really makes me proud to call myself Mexican. Definitely retiring there in the not to distant future. Keep up the good work, keep doing what you're doing.
Thanks for the beautiful comment and support Gilbert. 🙏 And you should absolutely be proud to be Mexican. The people of Mexico are warm, and know how to prioritize what is really important in this life; it's why we love it so much.
I really enjoyed your video. It was very interesting to watch. I'm a professional musician from California. I have some Mexican friends in Aguas who I have worked with on cruise ships and one friend in particular who moved his family from Queretaro to Aguas a couple of years ago and have talking to him about moving there. So I found your video very informative and nicely done. Thank you so much. Mucha Gracia amigos
Good for you! We chose Aguascalientes as our home a couple of years ago..... almost 33. Our girls grew here and now we are enjoying the best place to live in Mexico with our grandchildren. We'd love to have a chat with you. Please check your mail. Perhaps we can meet here in Aguascalientes very soon. Why not right now?
Keep in mind, there are a good number of Japanese expats, because of the Nissan plant. Maybe they know something about this GREAT city that we don't
Yes, there are a number of Japanese expats who work/ live near the Nissan plant. They predominately live out North. Aguascalientes is pretty spread out and there are very distinct differences/ vibe in the various parts of the city which we will be sharing in future videos.
Hello there! I’m a new subscriber and so excited to see you settled in Aguas. It’s my Papa’s hometown and I am headed there in early March. He never went back home after he immigrated to the US and I fly out on the 11th anniversary of his passing to take him home ❤️ it’s my first journey home as well and will be obtaining my Mexican citizenship while I’m there. My Mama was from Mazatlán! Hope to run into you out there in Aguas. Be well and I wish you all the happiness in AGS.
Hi Lizpdx07, First and foremost, our condolences on the loss of your father. 🙏 What a beautiful thing you are doing bringing him back home. 🌹 We can only imagine the mixture of emotions you are experiencing. It is so wonderful you are getting to see the home roots of your father for the very first time...a very special occasion. We are wishing you safe travels and it is a much smaller world than we think, so definitely possible. 😉 Thank you for your comment and we welcome you to our YT family. 🌹
@@WhyNotNow thank you so much for your kind words. They mean a lot! I am definitely a mixed bag of emotions and really looking forward to the whole experience. Thanks so much for your videos, insight and honesty on AGS. Keep ‘em coming!
🙏
All of those positive human qualities that you possess, you do not need to tell me. They radiate from you both energetically. Just continue to transform and to deliberately create your happiness. Thank you, Steven and Lisa Marie, for all that you are and bring to the Universe...
What a kind and generous comment. 🙏🙏💕 We appreciate your kindness toward us very much. This is definitely one of the nicest things anyone has said. Thank you for the love and support.🌻
🥺🥺🥺👍💜👍🥺🥺🥺
Thank you so much for taking time to showing Mexico 🇲🇽 🙏🙏🙏💜❤️💜🙏🙏🙏
You got my subscribe when you said you don't love the places that are super inundated with tourists. Amen to that! My mindset, too. I like to appreciate the local culture and mix and blend as much as possible.
Aguascalientes is the true geographic center of Mexico (same distance from the extremes, North to South, and West to East), and it happens to be one the the places I spend the most time when I'm in Mexico (because one of my brothers lives here). I'm writing 2 years after your move there. Sorry. I just found you in RUclips, guys, but I already like you. You have a good authentic vibe. Ive seen a couple of your videos from my hometown, Queretaro, and already I can't wait to find out where are you in 2024.
Enjoy your time in Aguascalientes, I was there 4 years ago and absolutely love the city and the people, the summer was one the best I ever have, running at night and beautiful during the day, just love the place, greetings from California!!
Thanks Geraldo. 😊 Saludos en California. 🌹
You two are BEAUTIFUL people.ove how you share a part of your lives with us. My bride of 35 years and I visit Mexico often. We sometimes think about retiring to Mexico. Our challenge is our one and only grand child we don't want to leave. Thanks again for sharing your journey. ✌
Hi ECOPOSO, Thank you for the love and support. 🙏 Your kind words are appreciated. We understand and when the time is right for you, it will work itself out.
Que bonito y que padre se tenerlos aquí muy bien benidos no se van a repetir amigos
Hola my young friends. so excited for you both on Aguascalientes making it your home. When we return in August I'll let you know, so we can come to visit with you in Aguascalientes. Mx. Keep safe and enjoy the peace that surrounds you both. Love momma Ramos
Thanks Mamma Ramos. Sending hugs to you both.
Nice documentary...Aguascalientes is definitely a nice city..and the people there naturally kind people...such a CLEAN city...la ver la we San Marcos is number one in whole Mexico..go visit San Luis Potosi..its just 2 hours away..a little larger city but more colonial .i strongly recommend it..enjoy Aguascalientes.
Thanks for sharing Alex. Yes, we love Aguas. 🌹 We are also looking forward to visiting SLP amongst a few other cities. Thanks for the well wishes. 🙏
So happy you are enjoying your new home city. You now seem rested and happy! :)
Thanks for the support and well wishes. 🙏🌹
I love your channel. Great content
You two are so thorough! Miss your videos 😢
Great video guys. Glad to see that you're settling into your new home base. How are your little perros doing? Looking forward to future videos!
Hi Shari, Thanks dear. 🙏❤ The little guys are doing well. I can tell they are happy to be settled into one place again. They did not like bouncing around.
Just in time to enjoy the incredible feria de San Marcos, the city becomes so different for a month!
love you guys video, cant wait for the renewal video, we are in Tequis.
It's coming very soon Black Beard. 😉 Nice, we were in Tequisquipa last year. You may have already seen our video but just in case, I will add our Mexico travel playlist below which includes the Tequis video.

I was the one you couldn't remember who guessed you were going to Aguascalientes. Really looking forward to your videos on the place. From other videos, it seems a very livable place, with good quality of life. Hard to tell from videos, but I trust you guys will give us the honest truth as you see it. You always do. All the best and happy trails. Retirement places I was considering included Aguas, SLP, Queretaro, maybe Guadalajara, but I think it's too big for my tastes. All those places have nearly ideal weather according to what I like. I am not into extreme heat and humidity, but I also hate cold weather. These places, though they can get cold during the winter, seem pretty close to perfect. Thanks for doing what you do.
Hi RD, 😊 Yes! You certainly did guess. 😉 We appreciate your kind comment and support of our work. 🙏 We will continue to being that same work ethic to you for sure...we have a lot to learn here and we're looking forward to sharing it with our valuable viewers.
Lisa Marie you have the most beautiful smile. I love the way you refer to each other as my wife, my husband. It warms my heart. This was a very clear list and the traffic in the background was not a problem.
Thank you for being so kind to us Tammie. 🙏💕 That is a really sweet thing to say. To be very honest, I was never a big "smiler" but have been trying to change that as of recent.
Another positive thing there is it has a HEB Supermarket which is number one in Texas where I am originally from and has a cult following and starting to do so in the northern half of Mexico too.
Half of their foods have always been produced in Monterey and so even if a Texas Company, it's a great selection of Food and other items to choose from.
Yes...HEB. 😉
looking forward to seeing the area in-depth.
be safe.
Thanks E.T.
Looking to know more about Aguascalientes. Thanks for your videos
Thanks for sharing your appreciation Victor. 🙏
You will love it there. Both of my parents are from Aguascalientes and 95% of my family still lives there. I love going back to visit. BTW I live in the L.A. area now, and the weather can be very similar when you compare both cities. Enjoy your time there!
Thanks for your comment and for sharing Everado. 🙏
So happy for you guys you found your city. Be careful at the hot springs it can be a little slippery at least it was the day I went there.
Thanks for the tip and well wishes. 😉
Thank you for your extensive coverage of Aguacalientes!I am wondering how you feel the city would be for a family with small children? We are really loving the area but not sure how family friendly it is. We resonate with a lot of the points you made...especially it being a non expat city and the cost of living there.
Welcome! sorry there is not hotsprings anymore there is shortage of water instead but its a nice safe and people its great almos everybody
I love your insights.
P.S. Take the lady out to a candlelight meal for your anniversary. She is a keeper. (And so are you!)
Thanks for the support I D. 🙏🌹 We may just have to do that one day. 😉
I really love how responsible and mindful you all are of the locals. I'm moving to an area where there aren't expats as well.
Thanks for your comment and kind words Jenny. 🌹
I truly appreciate this video a lot
I'm originally from Aguascalientes and I have to be honest I truly miss living there
Gaaah this video made me homesick
Hi Roberto, Thanks for your comment and for sharing your thoughts. 🙏 How nice...where do you live now, and when is the last time you've visited Aguascalientes?
Es genial que hallan escogido Aguascalientes para vivir un tiempo, bienvenidos. Espero les encante nuestra ciudad que ahora también es de ustedes. Espero verlos por la calle y poder saludarlos.
Gracias por tan amable comentario y cálida bienvenida.
🌹 Estamos agradecidos de ser recibidos aquí. Y sí, por favor saluda si nos ves :-).
Thank you 🙏🏻for choosing🌻 Aguascalientes.💕🥰🇲🇽
Thank you for welcoming us here with such love.
🌹
I appreciate your videos. I have not seen them all but I will have to watch the full Queretaro episode to see why it didn't work out for you. As you say, QRO is top of the list now. I am committed to the San Miguel-Guanajuato-Queretaro triangle because there is opportunity for me there and I know how to work around the touristy aspects. Buena suerte en Aguascalientes.
Thanks for your comment King Commack. Appreciate the support. I put a couple of our playlists in the "pinned comment" but we have MANY more videos...actually over 100. It wasn't that QRO didn't work for us, we wanted to continue bringing our work ethic of transparency to our viewers so we decided to move on. We did a video called "Farewell to Queretaro" that explains it ruclips.net/video/3KrjJKNXzz8/видео.html
You two are just the sweetest.
Thanks for the sweet comment as always Miss Kristel. 🙏💕
You made a very wise choice. Prosperous middle class from so many auto manufacturing plants, other manufacturing - yet just "right-sized" city and friendly people. I was there in June and was impressed about how effective their local Govt. has been at making AG so liveable and nice. Very good traffic routing/control. And, IS in
the middle of everything. 1.5 hours to Zacatecas/ZAC. fascinating city. 2.5 hour to Guadalajara. Short day trips possible to Guanajuato, etc. Good choice too that there
are less expats there. Sorry to discriminate being a Gringo, but that kind cities to live are better.
Thanks for your comment and sharing your thoughts R.C. 😊
Looking forward to a more detailed tour of the area, and how you found you new home an cost
It will come over time for sure Maria. 😉 We have to get acclimated with the different areas first to give our honest thoughts. The apartment tour and new cost of living for this particular living situation, will come further down the road.
I'll be eagerly waiting for your tours of SLP and GDL, GTO, as well as AGS! Eager to see what the art scene is like there also! Love your vids and glad to see that you feel good about this place. I'm in Oakland, so I got the swivel down. You can be sure about that ;p
Hey Darkk Star, Thanks for the constant support and love. 🙏💕 I know you have to have that swivel down in Oakland no doubt...😉
I admire the fact that you chose a city which is not on the best places to retire list. I know that you try to speak Spanish, which is very positive. Sadly, most Americans have no interest and many of them even are against the learning of a foreign language. Less than 1 percent of American adults today are proficient in a foreign language that they studied in a U.S. classroom. Some people are even attacked in the U.S. for speaking a foreign language.
Thanks for your comment Ray.
Always I Love your videos ❤ …
Thank you so much 😀
You guys have a great reasons to stay in Aguascalientes... But I'm completely sure once you learn more about this town you will love it more
Make sure to eat at La Meztiza Yucateca. This is one of my top 5 restaurants in all of Mexico.
Thanks for sharing Noel
Vibe is the key to me if I am going to feel at home in any place.
Understand that Laura, it has to "feel right"...like "home". 😉
i agree having visited mexico ans guatemala several times, blending with the locals is essential keep up the good work. ive seen the gated communities expats flock to just like back home. that really rubs me wrong and they have the mentality they are doing the locals a favor by spending their dollars there ans hiring them as maids and gardeners
I recommend giving your temperatures in Celsius as well as Fahrenheit, since it is the most common way to measure temperature outside the U.S. There are few countries that use the Fahrenheit scale: the United States, the Bahamas, Liberia, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands. You can also use Fahrenheit but Celsius (centigrade) should always be included if you want to be international. Few people outside the U.S. have any idea of the value of a Fahrenheit reading.
I think you have a good point Ray. I will include both going forward.
Cool couple. Straight shooters. Thankyou.
Love it
Good video. OK, if there is a Nissan plant, there will be some ramen and tempura places, for sure. Looking forward to your report...
Thanks Jim. Maybe so...but to be honest, we don't eat out a whole lot (my place is our "restaurant" as I cook all kinds of food at home). 😉
😍
Hello guys! I was born in California and raised in Calvillo, Aguascalientes. I moved from Ags to Las Vegas two years ago. You should visit my home town Calvillo. Greatings!
How nice Jorge. Yes, we absolutely plan to visit Calvillo in the near future:-). Saludos. 🌹
Hey Steven and Lisa😘🥰
Hey Candice ❤️
Thank you
🙏 D Walker
I just spend 3 months in Aguascalientes. Nice 👍🏾 People!
Nice Kevin. 😁
Talk about their 2 Nissan factories. How big and central the churches are. How no one offers drugs. How they always held elections in sunday when people have more time to vote.
I lived in aguas prior to moving to chgo 30 yrs ago. I am planning on moving back there in couple of yrs
ack
Aguascalientes is an amazing city. It is truly La tierra de la buena gente. gracias por ver
Your video in 4K Looks beautiful....
🙏 Gaming Zombie
Excellent overview. I've also heard low risk of Earthquakes there?
I miss your videos!
This is so funny because this city just popped on my radar due to a cheap flight from ATL, but I was like I may only spend 2 days there until I work out transportation to GTO or SMA. No me pienso pasar mucho rato alli. lol It just seems like a sleepy town and I'm not feeling that. I really didn't even care for QRO over GTO or SMA because I like the hillside views where you can go up on your rooftop terrace and get an unobstructed view of the neighborhood. I haven't checked out a lot of your QRO videos, maybe they have those neighborhoods but it looks too flat for me. I totally feel you guys on the humidity, I'm in the Augusta GA area so I hate to step out early in the morning and it's already hot and muggy. Merida would've been a good spot for me due to cheap flights into Cancun but again that humidity turned me off. I went to Trinidad a few years ago and it was that dry heat so as long as you were in the shade and a nice breeze was passing thru it felt comfortable. However, we're definitely trying to get out of here by June, heading to the land of eternal spring Antigua and then Mexico in the first week of September. I want to spend half the time in SMA just for the novelty of it, but I like hanging with the locals and immersing myself in the language and culture that's where GTO wins for me as a future base, SMA seems too gringolandia. I've watched enough of your videos that it just makes sense to finally sub. lol If you guys in still in AGU went we get there hopefully we can meet up.
Take your time and explore and you will find what feels right fot you no doubt. It sounds like you are doing just that. Wishing you safe travels and a joyful time exploring Mexico. You likely already know this, but we have a playlist with our "Mexico travels" ruclips.net/video/JCqF0CRDC1E/видео.html and one of our "Queretaro neighborhood tours" ruclips.net/video/2M4UKYTN_Lg/видео.html (Milenio sits up higher). These are just some of our videos as there are over 100 in our video library. 😉
You need to visit: El Crist Roto en San Jose de Gracia , Calvillo, Presa de Malpaso( Calvillo municipality) and go on a hike on el Cerro del Muerto
We plan to Jazmine:-).
@@WhyNotNow yay! Thank you for taking the time to respond
@@jazmine1265 Of course Jazmine. 😊
I tried QRO last summer (good, but not yet sure for me) and plan to try AGS this summer (based on my research). Appreciate local culture and food and fear QRO might now be too exposed and expensive. so trying to get off expat radar further in AGS. Not UNESCO like QRO and many other cities, but still think might have pleasing slice of local culture
You will find the place that works best for you. 😉 Take some time to try a few options if possible to compare. Queretaro is still a great city in our opinion.
@@WhyNotNow spent 7 days in AGU in August. liked it better than QRO. less touristy. nicer plaza. better food. visible security presence. less stressed people. shorter direct flight back to u.s. plan to go back next july to further study if fit for me
also considering morelia, since more rainfall so perhaps more lush and more stunning architecture, but can't pursue due to security risks at this time. so will focus on AGU until security status changes

Is it a green city? I would love a tour of some of the parks in Aguascalientes and where you walk your doggies. Love your channel!
Hi Jane, We personally would not refer to it as a "green city" however, if you live out in the North, you will have some access to green parks. As for walking the dogs, you just make it work wherever you are like locals who have dogs. 😉
Several vloggers have suggested Querétaro as not "too expat," but still expat friendly. There are several vloggers who live there.
I was thinking about going there. Found out there is radioactivity in the ground there. I passed on that one. Google "pollution" and "name of city" and it will come up.
Oh wow… Thanks @DebbieHarry I was planning on moving there and will be visiting soon, so this is really good to know.
My birthplace and what a beautiful city and wait for the Féria de San Marcos 30 days of fun fun fun
😊
When is it?
@@biancapadilla146 April 16 to May 8 this year.
On a previous video you guys mentioned a problem with ticks in Aguas, was that just an isolated issue? Thanks for your great videos!
Hi Bryan, Thanks for your comment and glad to hear you enjoy our content. As we mentioned in that video, we can't say if the tick situation came from that Airbnb, or that area outdoors where they used the bathroom, and possibly walked into a nest. We always recommend pets stay on a good flea, tick prevention (and possibly heartworm especially if in certain climates). Thankfully, we havent had that experience again.
Please Visit Zacatecas,,you will like it...
Hey folks, could you comment on the cleanliness of the city. We currently live in Queretaro and as beautiful as it is there are definitely a number of areas that are littered with garbage, plastic containers etc. A good example is Parque Queretaro 2000. This a really nice park but there is a lake within the park that has a lot of garbage floating along the sides. It rather sad and disgusting.
Hi D M, Tha nks for your comment/ question. We know what you are referring to in the lago in Queretaro 2000 Park because we did a video there and towards the middle of the video, showed that ruclips.net/video/2AsiWnFQvfc/видео.html. I will be very honest and tell you that just like in Queretaro (which is a city we love), there are clean/ unclean areas here as well. Unfortunately, that is life no matter where you go in this world (some places are worse than others, Queretaro isn't one of them to be honest). We always see the people in Mexico cleaning their communites on a daily....they show the pride and love they have for their properties/ country but sadly, there will always be a small handful of people who just don't care. We sometimes pick up trash on our way to the dumpster but every now and again some knucklehead will show no regard and litter again.
Hola Amigos visiten Calvillo Aguascalientes es muy bonito Saludos
Gracias por tu comentario Graciela. Absolutamente visitaremos Calvillo en un futuro próximo
Damn I thought mazatlan was cheap at least to me and my girlfriend thought so and she is from Mexico was a lot cheaper than border towns but the city aguacalentes is beautiful also
Aguascalientes is a beautiful city
hola amigos you made a good choice Aguascllientes
I just spend 3 months in Aguascalientes. Nice 👍🏾 People!

Yall choose a good country to live, when s*** hits the fan in the US I'm going to Mexico with my family
How would you rate the walkability? Love your vids.
Hi Bob, It depends on where you live in the city. There are many areas that are, and others that aren't.
Working on our temp residency and really stressing……
Why are you stressing Banana Patch?
@@WhyNotNow
We’ll, we are too young to get social security, so we have to show assets. Most of our assets are in my pension and house, but until I elect my choice within the pension (after I quit my job) or sell our house ( after I quit my job) we seem to have just barely enough in other accounts to show enough assets. We must get this done in 2022, because if they raise the amount another 20%, we won’t show enough.
I can quit my job in 12 months, make my pension election and sell the house, but then we need to move somewhere….no time to take those funds and stick them in accounts for 12 months…..
We really just wanted to live in our daughters vacation house in Queretaro for a year or two until our senior dogs pass away. After that we hope to slow travel to many countries.
But…..the need to qualify for a temp visa may drastically change our plans.
We are going to try….let you know how it goes.
Hi Banana Patch, I'm sure you've already watched the two-part temporary residency videos I did; they provide a very detailed breakdown of necessary documentation, both the consulate & MX INM websites, as well as how to find out what you need to qualify Let me know if you need me to insert the links for you. As stated in the videos, every consulate has their own financial requirements...some more, some less (not sure what consulate office website you checked/ if that particular one has the requirements outlined ~ some are more organized than others).. You can go to any office in any state just make sure they handle visas at the location. As long as you can show you can sustain yourselves in MX for the first year when applying, you can renew annually in Mexico thereafter. Maybe in the meantime you can work through other items you need to close the loop on back home. Also, just some advice...dont let the panic that some are feeding make you anxious: we are hearing a lot about this by means of social media. The one thing that is certain in this life is change; just maneuver as best as possible.
Yo vivo allí jsjs
Where are you guys now?
Thanks for not being upbeat and chirpy! Called a brunette on that a while back on her, "Top Cities In Mexico!" I think I shocked her. 🤣 Finishing up two weeks in Mérida, people are flocking as you said, so I've seen a shift, rentals have went up, in the Centro Walmart I'm hearing more English, and seeing types that would speak it. Last September, it was almost all locals. Flying to Guadalajara today, overnight stay, where to tomorrow? I dunno, having issues booking an ETN ticket. 🙄 I could possibly find myself in "hot water." 😉
Learning your sense of humor Terry...😄😉
@@WhyNotNow it's q bit dry, kinda big apple meets ATL.... 🙄 I just got tired of little Miss bubbly, especially since it was all fluff, she just listed the big cities, then had her other RUclips buddies chime in.
Hubby said to tell you ~ you are absolutely correct Terry. A lot of those type of videos from various RUclipsrs are just a regurgitation unfortunately. We will probably do a video talking about places we would recommend (down the road at some point) but it will look VERY DIFFERENT. 😉 Sure some people will give us the business because it won't be the "expat heaven" they seek and we of course will talk about some negatives that come side-by-side with those recommendations.
@@WhyNotNow sounds like a plan. 👍
@@WhyNotNow heading in your direction tomorrow.
Do you consider cartel activity in the areas you consider. I think there was a mass hanging there in the past year..
Hi Banana Patch, As you heard in the video, safety is one of the categories we consider. Yes, there was a mass hanging in Zacatecas. As we always state in our videos, crime exists all over the world and we look at it as a whole, not specific to one area/ category. In our home country of the U.S., there are many issues/ various crimes, and safety concerns which we personally lived through on a daily basis. We are aware of our surroundings wherever we travel/ live in general and always suggest everyone do the same.
Que ironia muchos queremos a E.U.A, y ustedes quieren vivir aqui, la verdad esta mucho mejor en E.U.A aqui no hay nada, si solo escojieron aqui por el clima, alla tienen mucho mejor clima, lugares por visitar, cuiudades mas modernas etc. En fin. Soy de Aguascalientes, sinceramente minimo me quedaria a vivir en Queretaro.
How does it compare to San Luis potosi?
We haven't been to SLP yet. This is a playlist of our Mexico travel Vlogs
ruclips.net/video/JCqF0CRDC1E/видео.html.
We also have additional playlists/ videos as we loved in Queretaro for over a year.
Good content! Thanks. However... Such an informative video should be filmed in a much quieter location. Por favor 🙏👍
Thanks for your comment John. 🙏 We will keep that in mind, thanks for sharing. We like to change it up from time to time (indoors, outdoors) but it can be challenging sometimes to find a truly quiet outdoor space. 😉
Beautiful women in Mexico
I don't think that Lisa Marie has respiratory issues. She just talks a thousands mph and doesn't take a breath. 😉
Love it K C 😄😂 Know what....you may have a point there but I'm good with that. 😉 It's also a NY thing. 😛
@@WhyNotNow My wife is from the Bronx but has lived in Florida for so long she's got a New Yorker's southern twang.
Can't go back huh ?
You didn't share $$$ amounts on your rental costs ....Hmmm 🙄
In this video, there was no reason to share how much we were paying for rent. As always it's affordable because of how we choose to live.
And just like that everyone will flock to Aguas and make it expensive. So sad.
We are hoping that isn't the case but completely understand/ share the very same concerns. This is why we ALWAYS inform anyone watching our content about our personal values, and do not promote "luxury living" (or exploit places as many other RUclips channels seem to unfortunately do). We emphasize the difference in sharing something beautiful, and reiterate the responsibility we each have as individuals wherever we go in this world. ruclips.net/video/QYvPSZDezRE/видео.html

No pudieron escoger mejor lugar
Reason number one..they want to go the feria de san marcos...😏
😏
You must be carefull when you go to Zacatecas, there aré so many narcos. I love Zacatecas but, Now Is dangerous. 26- march -22
Thanks for sharing your concerns Rafael.
Gringos hike up the prices. Not good for locals.
Not good at all.
Y las garrapatas.? Ya no hay, are they all dead?
😄🤣 Mr. Dabolina...you know they stood NO chance with this mamma on the job! Couple of days after that trip ~ it was a done deal...😡😉
@@WhyNotNow good on ya. Teach them little buggers a lesson.
You're not expats, you're immigrants.
You are right we are immigrants (a.k.a. "expats", foreigners, extranjeros etc..)and grateful to be recieved in beautiful Mexico.
@@WhyNotNow Just wanted to point out the euphemisms people use to discriminate outsiders, while the same people use it to protect from any negative connotation.
This is why you never hear in the news announcements such as: Thousands of Mexican expats are having trouble crossing their neighbor's borders.
Hi Kovenmx, I understood exactly where you were coming from. We know all types of discrimination exists/ occurs in this world but one thing I can assure you of, is that we would never act in such a way (especially understanding what it's like personally).
The noise of the traffic in the background practically drowned you out! Very annoying!
Thanks for sharing your appreciation.
