I screamed and laughed when the man at the market asked you about if you are into Mexican girls and you said you’re into mexican guys xD I’m gay too and all I can say to you is eso mamona!!! Which means yes gurl!
@@colibritravel5994 are you fully bilingual or sort of? There’s a drag Mexican youtube show you could watch, there are 3 seasons and currently a 4th season coming up, if you’re gonna watch it skip it to season 2 cuz season 1 is terrible haha, I think you might find it entertaining it’s called La Más Drag, saludos hermana!
Incredible interaction with the vendors!! Your confidence is admirable! 🤩 Chiles rellenos 🤤!! My Mexican Madre made them when I went to stay with them in Saltillo. They’re the most delicious food in Mexico. Awesome video!
You may do this already but if you gave a "business card" on how to sign on to your RUclips channel to all those you talk to, they would subscribe to your channel and build your subscriptions. Everyone wants to see themselves on "TV" !
Indeed, what you say in the first part of the video, where you entered the market is very famous for buying things for the kitchen, all the tacos and restaurateurs go there to buy their things for the kitchen and also those of us who do not have restaurants go because it is very cheap , too
16:05 hey I'm learning Spanish and I can't seem to understand the verb after he said "puedes" in the beginning and the verb after "muchacas bonitas" . If someone can spell it out for me that would be great, so I can expand my vocabulary and improve my listening comprehension
Many years ago I lived in Mexico City (in the 'Pink Zone', when it used to be a beautiful upscale neighborhood) and I was told by locals to never go to the "Merced" Market because it was 'The Most Dangerous Place in Mexico". Is it? I guess you have no problem at all.... Have fun. Cheers
I read it was dangerous, and the guy speaking english in the video commented on it about being dangerous outside. It seemed like it could definitely be a bit sketchy. I made it out unscathed
I guess is the same in NY, @@colibritravel5994 , I've never been in some neighborhoods in my own city for being known as "the most dangerous in America". The same in Mexico. maybe next time I visit Mexico City, I'll stop by 'Merced'. There are some impressive architectural monuments from 4, 5 centuries ago in that area that I always wanted to visit, but never did because of the zone's bad reputation. I believe it's the oldest hood in the capital. Have fun dude, don't waste your time in murky 'cabinas'. Lots of great places to meet people and have fun with them. Cheers
I kind of feel sorry for you visiting when we all are so aware and timid, kind of liked it more when it was all people and you coudnt even walk you know before the pandemic situation
I haven't seen musical instruments in the markets themselves but usually around the markets in the center there's a music store or group of music stores as is the case in larger cities selling instruments and anything you'd need to make and record music
16:20 the 4 of October the hood tepito/merced/lagunilla have a party for San Francisco de Asís where the gay community have a special space "las gardenias"...
awesome, I'll definitely keep it in mind. I read that one of the marginalized communities to whom La Santa Muerte appeals is the LGBTQ+ community. I thought that was interested and maybe explains for some of my interest
@@colibritravel5994 in Oaxaca the indigenous Zapotec communities have festivals called "vela muxe", muxe means gay in Zapotec, more like "third sex", you probably will like to document next vela muxe, those are in the Istmo de Tehuantepec, around Juchitan and Salina Cruz. according to google the vela muxe is in November...
I was a bit shocked, and saddened, to see how crowded the metro car was. Do you have any information about how the vaccine roll out is progressing in CDMX? It must be nerve wracking for all those folks who have no choice but to take public transit. When we were in CDMX (before covid) we used the metro frequently and wondered how far people were commuting to get to work. I am sure the folks in the restaurants of Roma, etc are travelling a very long way each day. Anyway, another great video! Thanks.
Thanks, Dan! I've already met 2 or 3 people that live about 45 minutes to an hour out from where I'm staying but come in nonetheless. If you're in the high risk category for covid and public transit is the only means you can sustain yourself economically I can definitely imagine it would be very stressful! Mexico has begun vaccinating people but are currently only vaccinating front line workers and people 60 or 65+. I will be several more months or well into next year until everyone is able to get a vaccine
@@SPKLifeStyle2.0 You are right, shocked is too strong; but I was surprised to see that the crowds on the metro had not thinned out like they have in many cities around the world. As for sad - I was simply expressing empathy for people who have no option but to continue commuting in crowded conditions. It makes me sad to think that they are worried about taking the virus home to their loved ones.
@@Vancouver_Dan jajaja no me digas que en Canadá los vagones del tres medios vacíos, la vida continúa solo debes tomar las medidas necesarias y seguir caminando.
jejeje you said to the mr. seller at the merced´s market; "I´m looking for "Aventuras", "Experiencias"!!, jajaja never say that to a MExican, because we are too extrem people and they could recommended you a lot of really dangerous or illegal stuffs, even, lol jajaj yeah, but funnies at least!!
I'm very happy in Mexico for the time being. I don't have any plans to move back to the US ever. You're always commenting that Mexico is so boring and while Mérida isn't the most interesting or exciting place I was still happy there to explore around and get to know the place and people. Saludos!

Oh, I loved this tour thru the market.

Loved finding out more about that market, am watching your videos from Bucerias.
7:55 hahah corona piñata...
Now lemme get this straight,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank 'em bot' up...

Great video!
Jajajaja Love the last guy Luis 😅♥️
Jajajaja jajajaja I love Luis! 🤣🤣🤣
U should visit el chopo market on Saturdays it's worth it.
MexicanOS! LOL. that was great!
Do a video on what you do for a living. How and why you ended up in Mexico 🇲🇽 I really enjoy your videos.

Dont' go to the last wagon of those trains 😂😂😂
what happens there?
Thank you
Your Spanish is pretty good, did you take class before going to Mexico?
I first learned when I was living in Spain about 14 years ago, then I lived in Chile and now Mexico
Watching from Querétaro.
Nice videos. And I m learning speak english with you. Because you can speak Spanish too.
gracias thanks & welcome!
I kind of feel sorry for you visiting when we all are so aware and timid, kind of liked it more when it was all people and you coudnt even walk you know before the pandemic situation
What about music instruments, have you come across tienda de musica?
I haven't seen musical instruments in the markets themselves but usually around the markets in the center there's a music store or group of music stores as is the case in larger cities selling instruments and anything you'd need to make and record music
Would you say people in Mexico City are friendlier comparing now to your first impression?
not really, my impression is that people keep to themselves more here
Do you have Instagram? I love your content!
thanks! no instagram, facebook page is in the video description
Pleas come to Monterrey! In north Mexico ! My house is your house !
Pimping pinatas. YASS
so crazy you sent me that article just a few hours before I was there!
Los mexicanOS 🤣🤣 a mi también me gustan y más si se ven bien chacales, esos son los buenos. jeje

You gotta come back to America. The weather is getting nice and China Virus nonsense is loosening up.

Hey Green, I can't call you Gifted, because you sure aren't that!!! Where in America: Chile or Argentina, Panama, Guatemala , Canada?
Mexico is part of America also,,AMERICA IS A CONTINENT,,NOT A COUNTRY.
