The Cancun They Don’t Show You 🇲🇽
I love the perspective that you find in the world and the conversations that you engage people in. Just follow the music and go with the flow!
thought it was so cool how the dude spoke to u in english, because you spoke his language to him. mutual respect at its finest!
Bro I’m vibing right along with you in these videos. mis amigo significan mucho para mí.
You da man. Love your channel. Can’t believe you don’t have more views and subscribers. Keep up the good work and they will come.
Thank you brudda - You’re the definition of a day 1
When we arrived in Cancun within 15 minutes of being downtown we bumped into a guy who opened this little notebook and said I have everything you need. We ordered up a quarter ounce of good pot, and eight ball of cocaine and a pharmaceutical packet of Vicodin and everything was excellent quality. All we needed was a nice bottle of tequila from the local store and we were in business!
Man sounds like a good trip😂
So you support the murder of innocent people?
@@jumpy2xstreaming both ways
Love cancun! One of the best trips I ever went on was staying local in air bnb and going around to all the local places to eat and chill. Good times
Love the channel. I love how you always end it here.....and here.....and here.... keep it as a trademark.
Thanks
🙏🙏
I literally just saw myself in the middle of the video. I was there in Cancun around that time. Strangely, I don't remember seeing this guy that day. I would have said hello and let him stay at our beach house.
Me too, I was the rich guy in this video,... with all the ladies around me. Didn't see him when i was also there that day.
@@l3ul2t I was one of the ladies, I also didn't see him when I was there
I was also the other rich guy surrounded by ladies in this video and just missed him
I was the ant walking in the ground. I’m just glad no one stepped on me
Me three.
Cerveza de raíz is root beer. She was telling you it’s made from the roots of the sarsaparilla plant.
Exactly, hasn't he seen any old cowboy movies where the tenderfoot orders a "sarsparilla" ?
American with a small brain 🤘🤷♂️
Or The Big Lewbowski. The Dude abides...
Fun Fact hard to find Sarsaparilla anymore in US Root Beer.
A single cigarette is called a loosy (Lucy) in the States. You can buy them at Bodegas in New York and they used to be a thing in Cali too but it's been a while since I've seen them.
Came to the comments looking for this reply. They sell loosies in bodega but I think it's illegal.
We call them retail in the Caribbean
They are literally in almost every hood in the United States lol
I came here and got a airbnb down the street from here(literally 1 block away from the area u were eating at) also went to isla mujera's and got airbnb, stayed a hotel across cozumel (playa del carmen)before taking a ferry to cozumel to snorkel. Then i ended it with an all-inclusive resort called x caret.
The best food i had was from a local stand somewhere before playa del carmen that my taxi driver recommended 😂. Everything else u could tell the flavor was waterd down to cater to us tourists.
do you remember the airbnb's street?
I love your videos. I still think the best shave you ever got was from that guy on the streets of India. That was a good shave.
They have a deal at a Dive bar by my house house that serves one cig, one beer, and one shot of whiskey called the "Grandpas Special"
Never any reason to be bored in MEXICO!
Lol that's true! It would be impossible to be bored in Mexico, it's just so much fun literally all the time. The people, the food, the culture, it's awesome!
Brazil has individual cigarretes too, they're called 'cigarro solto" ("loose cigarrete)
mole is like a chocolate sauce, its absolutely delicious
I like this youtuber, pretty down to earth and not sugar-coating anything.. (Y) !
I would love to know how often you've gotten sick in your travels? Seriously ....different food...water etc
I've never smoked in my life, ever, but I was in a little village in Mexico and all the little shops had these small vending machines that sold tiny boxes of cigarettes. They were like gumball machines LOL
That’s the free market at work baby
@@SmallBrainedAmerican2002 big flea market on this side of the border exclusively made up of 90% Latinos!!! Lotsa good stuff really cheap! South of Escondido. I’m east coast and my local friends brought me there. It had the same atmosphere as this place.
Cervesa de raiz.."what ever d fk that is"...root beer 😅
I miss marquesitas! Living overseas is so painful if you are Mexican, miss the food.
What are they? Everyone wants to know? How to make too plz?!
I'm from Texas but I would seriously miss the Mexican food and culture if I had to live overseas somewhere. I don't know if I could handle being away like that.
Then go back. You aren’t wanted here
@@trevorjameson3213Texas has some of the best Mexican cuisine you can find literally anything shown on this video 😅
It’s ROOT BEER!
A fantastic lesson is well illustrated in this video: don’t be afraid to eat at the sketchier looking / more hole in the wall-y type places in Mexico. Most of the best food that I’ve ever had in Mexico have been from such places. One thing is for sure, you’re not gonna find the best food by staying on the beaten path.
See I’m more okay with that if I’m there for a week plus, but if it’s a quick trip I’m super worried about getting sick and than having a terrible flight back home
Mole is one of my favorite sauces from any culture. Sometimes they add chocolate, which is delicious. Puebla and Oaxaca are esp known for their Mole. Hope you can find some of the real stuff
Mole is awesome, it's one of my favorites too! I've had the version with chocolate in it too, fantastic!
@@trevorjameson3213 yessir. buenisimo
Yes yes yes mole amazing
That mole actually looked really good but if you never had it before its definitely a shock on the pallet because idk anything similar to it and no it is definitely not gravy like he said that made me laugh 😂
It absolutely pays off the not plan, as you said. Spontaneity is the spice of life and travel. This includes not reserving a hotel, generally speaking anyway, 'cause all the expensive lodging are online. But, when you walk around a new place, there is always some little (not on the net necessarily) motel or hotel that cost less that you will come upon everywhere you go. And, moreover, you will have fun staying away from the popular tourist areas and just meeting people as you go along, as you do in this and all your videos. Isn't it fun? ; )
I’m Mexican American & I went to Quintana Roo back in 2014. Trying to find good food was hard af 🙃🤣 (My family is from Guerrero, so I think i know something about food)
You want live with white people because assume us as smarter?
Y’all eat iguanas
@@stank1071 lmaoo no ,but we do have them around the state
We even got a song/dance (el baile de la iguana)
Sabes algo de los narcos ja ja
Guerrero es mierda.
single cigarettes can also be found in Turkey. they are mostly called as 'tek dal sigara' which literally means 'single branch cigarette' . they used to be more popular especially among students back in the days ,mostly due to economical reasons and to avoid carrying a box that can be found by the parents which could start a sh*tshow at home. I assume small groceries located around high schools or popular places still sell them, but it's not a frequent sight as it was before.
Thanks for the video, great job !! where is this located ?
Thanks so much :) Cancun
Outside of the "hotel zone"
That first guy wasn't saying "Mexico!" he was saying "maricòn"!
He wasn’t, but that’s funny 😂
Haha. Hog legs for a peso!
quality of life,we enjoy life in mexico
Your Spanish is good dude !! You should visit maybe Guadalajara/Puerto Vallarta or Mexico City would be dope !!
when I first went to oCancun there was no hotels the beech was open and only a few tacos places.
Went there in 1977, when there were only 3 hotels on the entire sand spit. It seemed too "touristy" back then, looks like a nightmare now.
That must have been 50-60 years ago 😂
@@209_zerocool Eat your heart our about out a time you will NEVER experience.😢
50 years ago
Freshly prepared mole will be one of the greatest food experiences of your life when it happens. 👏
yeah My family didn't like it
gross
Didn't happen in the video you are commenting on.
@@eriklarson9137 That’s what I am saying. When he gets the “real” thing, he will be blown away. 👏
I’ll take freshly prepared ceviche over mole any day
3:10 yes the Philippines standard 1 peso almost identical currency too
It’s freakin Cancun, not Oaxaca or Puebla, that’s like going to Louisiana to try Pizza. Food in Cancun is catered to tourists, and most of the food there is not as authentic or made for the domestic consumer. You want real Mexican food? Leave the touristy spots.
I think he found that out if you look at his other videos he eventually gets out of the tourist areas.
Hey man ,go easy on him. He's a brain washed American that watched bald and bankrupt and thought he could do the same.
But yeah he's pretty irritating, the only reason why I watch him is I miss traveling and on a comedown with low brain levels.
To be fair most of youtube is only bearable when I feel low due to a comedown.
Kind of makes me realise how brainwashed most people are when I only find youtube semi- digestible after taking a lot of hard drugs.
We used to have an ice cream van that would drive round the streets where I live in the north east of England and the driver was known as John the icey man and he would sell loose cigarettes to us when we would be ten years of age he was legend 😀
Want a Single Cig in the States just ask for A Loosey..!! How we have em in Providence RI..!!
Loved the Mexico Trip. Very Interesting..!!
It's illegal in Washington where I live
Ahh, Federal Hill!
I'm an American of Mexican descent and honestly I've never been big on Mole and never understand what all of the hype is about. Similarly, when I went to Paris for the first time I couldn't wait to try Coq Au Vin and couldn't have been more disappointed. Some dishes are just hit or miss I suppose and others just appeal to different tastes altogether.
In South Africa you can buy one ciggie, we call it a loose 😊
Used to buy individual cigs in US, Boulder, Colorado. Before the extreme sin tax...
Great video
First of all, it's a Loosey not a ciggy. lol You can buy them in the US, just gotta look around.
brooo, you ever been to Philly? haha. there called "Loosies" the one ciggy lives on in america as well
When I was your age we could buy single cigarettes at the small town corner store in Maryland. 10 cents the whole pack was 90cents
A little late to the game but still here in Utah at the local stogies smoke shops you can get one cigarette for like a quarter
Come to Lynn, Massachusetts Every bodega sells single cigarettes called “Lucys”
Loosies ; as in loose
@@deeferguson9272 I’m sure the group these cigs are sold to cant spell anyway
@@bjaminrun Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin; you don’t come out the way you came in. I knew of a guy who lived in Lynnfield decades ago when I was in high school; he had a big house with pillars and a big circular driveway like a miniature White House. Inside, it had a big “Gone With The Wind” staircase. I asked no favors and I showed respect.
@@bjaminrunyou couldn't spell it either, dimwit
Fun fact, you can get one cigarette at your local hood party store. I delivered and saw so many people stop in with a dollar for 2 cigs.
Just found this channel, been binge watching your stops. Good shit
Certain lil gas stations. Not big chain ones. Sell singles. It's not legal but they do it
Stop by NYC you can get one ciggie anywhere. I love it. Not 10 cents tho, more like $1.
usually a lot of stands sell cigs because there are a lot people want leave to smoke and avoid buy whole pack, it has become a tradition every mexico corner 😂
whats the name of this open-air market he went to?
Parque de las palapas
Awesome 😂👍
Corner stores in the hood in ne ohio still sell individual cigarettes
During the years that I lived in Seattle, they used to sell single cigarettes at convenience stores. 😀
Why not eat the, "hard crepe" tho??!!! What IS IT?! Sounds amazing!
Hahahaha in Philly you can single ciggies in papi stores
You can get a single cigarette in the US it’s called a Lucy. (Or loosie?)
Pretty sure Cerveza de Raiz is just root beer homie
Latin America always looks so incredibly chill
Cancun is (tourist spot) most other places not so much.
It depends the area. Where I live is super chill and is not a tourist spot, some other areas are no-go zones @@nicekeyboardalan6972
you mean incredibly kriminal
Some cities are, northern Mexico isn’t
Apart from the high risk of being robbed, yeah most of the cities are pretty chill
lol u can gas stations selling single cigarettes in the hood all day just go in and ask for a single
What part of the US are you from!! You can get single cigarettes in NY and Jersey....its called a loosie!!
Seing this stuff getting views, i regret not recording more when i was in Cancun, damn what a crazy place
Do you have a tick took page? You should start editing some of your vids to clips and make a page, I’m sure you’ll blow up over night
Tick took 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just finding your videos and enjoy them a favor though, you are sampling interesting foods but not really describing the taste. The drink you tried? Flavor of mole? Thank you
2:10 oh yeah I'd be in there
If you are traveling, this is the channel you need to check out before you go ANYWHERE 1st. 💯
Sorry dude but you went to the worst place in Mexico to eat😂. Quintana Roo state does not have good cuisine at all. Puebla has delicious Mole, best seafood you may find in Sinaloa and Jalisco beaches, Best tacos and meat in Sonora, Nuevo León , etc etc. Mexico City you may find great food options overall, yep it requires a lot of traveling🐷
Best food in Mexico is in Oaxaca ❤❤❤ Increble
U must be crazy if you think Sonora's meat is better than Sinaloa's
La carne que se come aqui en Sinaloa es 90% de Sonora , es la mejor del pais con diferencia, los tacos no, mil veces mejor los de culiacan o tijuana que cualquier ciudad de sonora @@swiggles4342
For Quintana Roo, prolly should go to a decent restaurant and have the fresh fish specials.
That’s not fair. They have good food but you have to know where to get it.
Parque de las palapas!
Ayy it’s pretty sick!!
@@SmallBrainedAmerican I’ll be visiting it in a couple of days, really exited for it. Great content, keep up with the good work!
Bro every bodega in nyc sells single ciggys (loosies)
"You can't get just one cigarette in the US"
Lol! Guess you've never been to any hood shop in every city in America. They're called "singles". And I've seen them cost anywhere from 25 cents to $2 for 1.
Do the police still extort tourists for walking on the beach after sunset?
They shouldn’t I remember be out late at night around 3-5 am
took me a few seconds to realise its root beer lol
Almost every sentence contained I want "tacos" and you never had one.
Single cigarette is widely available in India too
Does anyone know why people Cuss? I think its because its easy.
It’s been proven to lessen a pain response and is the reason most people do it unconsciously if they for example bash their finger or something look it up.
you're to young to know but the single 'ciggy' once once widely sold in the usa
Laughing over him asking the lady if root beer has alcohol lol
LOL, I know, I caught that too! He just didn't know what it was, that's ok.
Especially when there's a big ass sign that says it behind her😂
has anybody complimented you on your chevron mustache?
Cerveza de raiz is exactly what it translates to, bro😂 Root beer.
Yeah, when he was saying "I don't know what that is", I was thinking Duh, "Cerveza de raiz" means "Beer of root", or root beer! Hello? Lol
Then what was the lady yapping about, something about using the root of a plant
if u go to the hood u can buy single cigs in the US lol
on your travels, do you ever encounter people who are traveling for "sex tourism"? not sex trafficking, the less nefarious alternative. safe travels, connor. 🖤
Root beer=literally lol
Cerveza=beer
De raíz=root
How could he not guess hahaha
LOL I was thinking the same thing! "Cerveza de raiz" = "Beer of root".. Duh! Lol
They sell individual cigarettes in the US 🤨 you just been shopping at the wrong stores 😂
Mole is boiled blood with other minor ingredients! Boiled blood!!
Not really, is chocolate with spices
The boiled blood is calles consome
Have you gone to France yet? Lemme know bro I’m close… ✊🏽 I know a place that would shamelessly try to rip you off, I’m talking 80 euro for a coffee and a wine glass…
Go into any corner gas station in Houston and ask for a Lucy. They'll give you a single cigarette and charge you a buck
Glad I’m in NC been 50 cents
You hungry but you just wantimg for a sucker to give you free FOOD right...?
todos van a cancun por su playa no por su comida amigo. visita lugares menos turisticos si buscas buena comida jajaja
I guess you’ve never stayed in California cuz every hood liquor store out there sells single cigarettes 😊
Yes but I’m Latin America people on the streets sell them everywhere you go pretty much
Lots of domestic violence in Mexico.
Cancun is nothing but a island in a sea of poverty, I would never want to go there ever.
Those kids need spinners on them rides.
Take note. You don’t see people out dancing, singing, drinking anywhere like you see in Mexico (stop calling Mexicans “latin”)
Root beer
In the usa
Never been to a hood if you don't know about loosies.
Ok, I just stumbled on this channel a few days ago. I've read through a few comments....but I haven't seen anyone mention the weird masking rituals/virtue signaling here. In the beginning, about 95% of the people were in various degrees of mask wearing....and then he shows the dance floor....and no one is masked. I know this was a year ago....but hadn't the 'guidance' of mask wearing already been rescinded at this time? I'm glad that Connor, for the most part, didn't go along with the Virtue signaling.
