Here's Part 1 in which Francesca shows more of San Marcos: ruclips.net/video/We973L_tTOQ/видео.html As for my own travel plans, I'm thinking of leaving the US pretty soon and going somewhere interesting, so there might be fresh content from a new country within a week or two.
Congratulations on your high number of subscribers!
how is expat community there and costs of retirement?
@@Burevestnik9M730 probably about the same as equador
Go get em Gabe! Mexico is looking pretty darn peaceful too....and theres bitcoin beach opening up in El Salvador. Never thought it would be a becon of freedom! Stay in the Americas amigo...love Frankys hermit friend. Alternative communities is where its at for the future. Blessings Gabriel
Just beautiful. My favourite part of being in Guatemala was seeing the villages around Lake Atitlan.
If you have ‘peace’ in your heart and soul, you will bring that with you everywhere you go. And not the place that bring you peace!
SO true!
Gracias, Grazie, Thanks, Francesca for being such a super guide of San Marcos.
@Gabriel Traveler congratulations 🥳 🎉 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 for hitting 500k mark. I started to watch your videos when you were doing $10 challenge in Corfu couple of years ago and since been addicted to it. I like the simplicity and authenticity of your videos. Keep up the good work 💪🏼👌🏼🤩
The beauty has no boundaries in this video.
Perfect shots without any doubt
Amazing how that videoo just found me here as I was mourning the loss of my dear driend Jitendra. How good to see him here , that was just before I met him two years ago . blessings
Thanks Francesca & Gabe for showing us San Marcos.... a real eye opener. 👍👍😊
I would love to spend a month there! But then return home. There is something about returning home that it’s really comforting. :)
I really enjoyed this, very inspirational. I want to escape the illusion too
👣Those who wander are not lost. thank you Francesca ! 🌼⚛
Francesca! You are so intelligent and charismatic! Thank you for showing me San Marcos and reintroducing me to Jitendra and his most recent beings and doings!

Very beautiful scenery! 🤪
Thanks for sharing, greetings from Brazil.
Best video so far... most beautiful hostess so far :)
Going to Guatemala in November, this is very helpful! Thank you Francesca and Gabriel!
Guatemala is beautiful, wild, raw. Lake Atitlan was my favourite part but Tikal, Antigua, Rio Dulce and Chichicastenango are all worth your time.
@@AnkleSnapper72 Thanks Steve! Those are all on my list 😀 What did you like in Chichi and Rio Dulce?
In Chi Chi, I really enjoyed the market where twice a week, locals from surrounding villages bring in their fruit, veges, flowers, paintings, craft, music, hats and more.
In Rio Dulce, there are places to stay right on the edge of the river, which are pretty much tree house/cabin type things. Sitting there, listening to, and seeing various birds, monkeys and wild life, watching life as it happens on the river.
Take a local river boat tour to see surrounding villages.
There is also a waterfall near here that flows hot water 😮 This is due to volcanic activity in the area. It comes down the temp of a very hot shower but cools once it is able to disperse.
@@AnkleSnapper72 wow you have been around Guatemala, more than me I am a native of Guatemala but I'm been living in the US for about 32 years I can't wait to get back to my beautifull Guatemala.
Francesca...keep up the great work...you're adorable. .
Almost there Gabriel! 500k subscribers! 😎🙌❤🙏
Ty for another interesting video..your friend makes some good points about living life...would u make a video about the local food served in restaurants? Too bad weed is illegal there..looks like a fun place to smoke.
Do those towns treat their waste water ? Or does it go in the lake ?
A blessed good day sir Gabe, Wowww what a nice beautiful nature people and place of Guatemala thank you so much for your beautiful friend Ms Francesca For showing Us the Wonder of Guatemala stay safe Godbless u all from your solid fan supporter viewer from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Vhin 🙂🙏👏❤️😍😍❤️👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
Very nice. Keep it up.
This place is perfect for my Walking VLogs.
Emma from London
Oh Gosh I know the first guys I meet they in Tepoztlan when she was pregnant, they are such of beautiful family
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC declared ANTIGUA GUATEMALA 🇬🇹 ♥️ 😍 the Most Beautyful Colonial City in Central America.
Very cool! Groovy!
I haven't completed part 1 yet so I'ma complete that first. I know it'll be a good video already. Keep it up.
Cool.
Beautyful documentary.
Woow 👨👨👧👦good video.
Is there a village on Lake Atitlan that is hippie free? It looks like a nice place but I can do without the "hippies".
i'm sure they mentioned lots of other villages nearby that were "normal" like you.....lol.
I’m sure they can do without you too.
Hi Gabriel, Very interesting place with a surrounding lake I'm surprised Gabriel that you haven't taken a trip to this location for a week or two seems like a great place for meditation and soul searching.
Nice video and exploring the place Francesca,
Mam you are jitendra very fluently pronounced as like indian so what about the jitendra please
Hey, Gabriel. You should stroll by Nicaragua some day. I'll point you in the right direction so you can make an amazing vlog.
Very nice. Be safe. Blesss
This guy makes me think of Paul McCartney. I love Guatamalalalalala. Live 100 years please. Thanks, Thailand Paul
New subscriber here Gabriel, watched some of your videos but have not yet checked videos placing you here so I am wondering if you yourself have been here. This video is informative by the way. It seems like a place you can relax and recharge.
I was there five years ago: ruclips.net/video/XFTmOcPeyd4/видео.html
Cool Place!
Welcome to Guatemala 🇬🇹 yours house 👍
More Francesca please!
I like your video, and thanks for sharing with you 😁😍👍
Thanks. I hope I will be there in january!
Bring lot's of money. Looks like a tourist trap now. Like Disneyland for Neo fake Hippies!
@@davenelson9505 I have been travelling for 30 years so don't worry about me. :-) :-)
How can I find a reasonable price house to rent for the year please?
Awesome woman, she should consider making youtube videos. Great footage as well.
THIS IS NOT ""VILLAGE LIFE"", THIS IS ""TOURIST LIFE""
Nice place there👏
We were there in Feb. 2019
10:19 so this guy says he needs to get out of América, so he moves to Central América 🤔🤔🤣🤣
Hello greetings beautiful places
Come to Tampa bay Gabriel
👍👍👍
De dónde es ella puedo notar su acento
Italia.
Nice that's why she can pronunciate any word in spanish very well I thought she is latin
what is this?
It's filmed by my friend Francesca who I met in Nepal. I explained a bit more in the previous video: ruclips.net/video/We973L_tTOQ/видео.html
Guatemalans flock to America to get out of the slums. Americans go to Guatemala to live in a slum and they call it a "hippie community". Inner peace is not found in a place. It comes with contentment and gratitude. No matter where you go.
Precisely. Certain people can't understand my desire to go elsewhere to get away from my typical American life and try something more simple and closer to nature for a while
👍👍👍🍺
So does like everybody there smoke weed and stay high?
Lol
Guatemalans come to the US claiming their life is in danger back home. Americans move to Guatemala to retreat and retire and claim it is peaceful. Who is lying?
Not necessarily lying. One has money, the other dirt poor
Well it’s obvious, only the indigenous population.
Sorry, but have to ask. Where are all the people fleeing from- is it the poor areas of the cities & extremely poor rural areas? Guatemala, El Salv & Nicaragua are supposed to have the most refugees of any of the countries in the Americas...
Many Countries have refugees , Bolivia have more than i and half million in Bolivia , Mexico 25 million origin Mexican in USA , and yes Central America has a lot of refugees in USA , but we talk about this little Town , , people that inmigrate from this countries are from all over rural and urban areas ,
very sed,kid is there..mother why do not have any kids if you want to do this
What's wrong with kids?
Ask your frainds from El Buho how they have stolen this place from his awner ...
San Marcos is "a look a like hippie town" don't let the looks fool you.
How sad to see one of the most beutiful places i lived,torn to a (Hippie)tourist trap
Shall I unsubscribe and then re-subscribe 🔥 maybe I am 500K 🤙🏼
Why is Gabriel not in this video? I cannot continue watching the video as I am not interested in Central America, sorry.
His friend made the video
Have you been here before? Because you can NOT judge a place if you never been , but is fine you are not interested in this previous towns and in GUATEMALA in general. Is the People that like the Vountry and the Country loves ❤️ them ,
@@blueangel9746 I have watched many videos about Central America. I am not intrigued so far. Maybe someday I like it but not now. I love love love South American countries like Peru, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and so forth. Love for certain things is a very subjective feeling and everyone is entitled to his or her own feelings. The only exception is love for humanity is universal.
@@GODISMYSTERIOUS Absolutely , nobody here is telling you the opposite, is just the way you set ,but again , I can't say I don't like maracuya ' if I never tried , in my case I am Argentinean Guatemalan and a historian. I'm also a Flamenco Dancer, all that I learn in GUATEMALA 🇬🇹 I been traveling for some countries and always comeback to this Paradise I love ❤️ mi Argentinean family and the Majesty of ARGENTINA 🇦🇷 but in GUATEMALA you have ,Coast in Both oceans , Jungle. Highlands, deep valleys and the most Beautyful Colonial City in the Continent, wonderful lakes in the Caribean and pacific, a Modern Capital with all commodities. And SAN MARCOS a Magic Town ,well Know for Kabalah followers, Metafisic studies. Yoga programs , sanscrit lessons, Gipsy and Hindi Dance party, wizards, menthalists, psychic, etc, in this town consider a kind of SHANGRI-LA in AMERICA. I think you follow Gabriel not the content in the videos .
Sorry, but if I can be honest, finding it boring! Going to next video after a few minutes.
*The ladies on RUclips, doing make up & dressing up(or is it down), trying to impress viewers.. they seem to want to be the main attraction point instead of the places!!
Gabriel, thank you for the guest post from Francesca of
"a travelers place, not a tourist place". 🌴
