+Tangerine Travels Awe thanks guys! And thanks for putting up with me today. Traveling solo offers long periods of having little to no conversation in English. You caugh me at a chatty moment. Jaja.
i'm pretty sure the place you were at (at 4:15) used to be an arcade i used to go to when i was a kid. my grandmas house is down the street a bit! awesome video!
Nice touch on your experience. I have followed Tangerine Travels and KinneticKennons for over a year and I enjoy their commentaries. They truly seem to enjoy Mexico and are good ambassadors for the U.S. The Mexican people are wonderful. "Mi Casa es Tu Casa" isn't just a saying. They truly mean it and welcome you with open arms.
Hello Leland, I can't disagree with anything you've said. I've met the Kennons and Jordan and Maddie are friends. They are indeed great ambassadors and yes, Mexicans are wonderful people! I pray we can all get this behind us soon to once again enjoy travel south of the border.
@@timelesstravelclub6240 I saw KinneticKennons last video and was sad to see them leave Mexico, I wonder what happened, since they did not explain their departure and poor Maddie was crying. I hope they're ok...
Regina Sneed Yes, very sad. Nothing but speculation at this point. Most people are of the opinion there was a break-up. I truly hope both of them are well and the end of their videos was not due to an illness of some sort.
@@timelesstravelclub6240 I know, I thought of a break up as well, but they always seemed like such a happy couple. I agree, I hope it wasn't an illiness in their families. We can only hope them the best at this point, until they feel the right time is to share with all of us. Take Care. Are you still in Mexico during this crazy quarantine?
Following up on your favorite you-tubers comment, I have to say that after 2 years of investigating various Travel You-Tubers you are my fav! So keep it up :)
Trish Green Wow Trish, that is a high praise! Thank you so much! I am going to keep afloat as long as I possibly can. I can share with you first that being in Acapulco with all my friends has put me far behind my video production schedule. But many more videos are in the works.
I loved visiting Chapala... So beautiful! Thanks for this video for me to come back and reflect on such a terrific visit! This place is very relaxing.. I suppose there are lots of retired folks there, but there are lots of children running and playing.
Excellent video. I've been watching a lot of other North American travelers' videos from Mexico and your style is very nice to listen to and watch. Very informative too! Carry on! Thank you!
You got a new subscriber in me. Loved your video both in content and quality. You’re light humor made me chuckle and are right on point with you’re observations. More Mexico videos please.
Hi Rosie, Thanks so much for watching my videos and especially subscribing. It's hard making videos on Mexico when there is no travel haha. I'll try my best.
@@Thatguyinthe452 Believe me, I would be most happy to return to vlogging. Since I took on a part time job as a favor for a cousin, I will for sure be home for a short minute. But I am going back to Acapulco in February! Don’t know if I’ll shoot any video though. People are probably tired of seeing me there.
Great, comprehensive review! We’re planning on spending some time in Chapala as part of our nomadic lifestyle and appreciate getting the inside scoop - especially about the free margaritas!
Great video and presentation! I've lived in Ajijic for 2 years now and absolutely love it. The peacocks died but they recently got replacements. Just a little update!
Crystal Provance Thank you. I’m curious to know if the Mocajete Restaurant would benefit more if they started charging for their margaritas and how long they’ve been giving them away.
+Barb Whitla Hi Barb! My favorite beach town is Acapulco but I am very biased since I have family and friends there. I’ll be able to better answer your question after my next round of travel from January to March. Which will include Puerto Morelos, La Paz, Puerto Vallarta, Ixtapa and of course Acapulco, all beach towns.
+Barb Whitla Hi Barb ! I thought I responded to your comment but I’m not seeing it. I am biased towards Acapulco since I have family and friends there. But January and February will be dedicated towards beach town travel. So I’ll be better prepared to answer your question. Stay tuned and thanks for watching my video.
@@timelesstravelclub6240 thanks for your response. We will be retiring there in a couple a years but just haven’t made up our mind on location. We find visiting a location and living there are miles apart.
We enjoyed your video. You have a natural way of expressing your ideas. We are headed to Ajijic but also are concerned about the area getting to crowded. Can you suggest a nice ocean area? Thanks
Stephen Cook Thank you, Stephen, for watching. You should enjoy Ajijic since it is very charming with favorable weather. Everyone is different but I enjoy just about any beach town except Huatulco. It’s way to expensive there. Puerto Morelos is still very small, very beautiful with much English spoken. It might be my new favorite.
Iztapa Zihuatanejo the town área, beatiful Beach,food,people,safe,clean,cheap,NOT crowded yet, you ride by bus only 3 hrs,from Acapulco, by plane Just 60 minutes o less
Hey 3of5, I use a Canon 80D for all footage on a tripod or gimbal. I use a Sony RX100 VII for vlogging or hand held motion footage. Thanks for watching!
Thank you Carolyn! I hope you can make it this summer too. They really need. visitors back again. I was there a couple weeks ago with near zero tourists in sight.
The hidden gem of San Nicolas de Ibarra is only 7 kilometers away From Chapala up in the hills are the ex pats but some very nice homes in the pueblo.Enjoy
Hahaha... when you talked about the smoke alarm... you and I both said, it drives me craazyy😀...i don't like a lot of noise... I like the sound of birds and water ...
Would you be able to write down the names of those 2 restaurants that you mention. I am moving to Chapala next month and would love to check them out. Free marg's ? Who wouldn't want to try them. Thanks
John Griffiths Haha. Never pass up a free margarita. Molcajete is the best one and Consumel is the other. They are right next door to each other at the end of the malecon or pier. I believe Molcajete is closed on Mondays.
Very good video, I like your video so much. Now I live in La Paz and Chapala is the city where I plan to settle down. According to you, La Paz and Chapala, which one is better for retirees?
It's all a matter of personal taste as there are great qualities in both. I must say there is a much larger community of ex-pats living in the Chapala area and they really look out for each other. There is also an established society established for that purpose. Thanks so much for watching my video!
Well well well. I've been to Chapala and Ajijic so I was interested in your take. I even stayed at La Nueva Pasada for a couple of days. There were lots of nice things. I loved the food and the area was pretty. I rode a horse in Ajijic and had a nice time. There were negatives though. I disliked bumping all the time on cobblestone streets. My husband had to go into a bank and left me driving around since there were no parking places. Finally I pulled into one that I was pretty sure was reserved for taxis or something. A troop of federalis came running out with rifles to chase me away. Cheesh. A horse had died on the rode in downtown. Instead of removing it, it was covered with lime and left to decay. Lake Chapala seemed nearly drained dry as a water source for Guadalajara I think. It was too low for boating. My market experience was marred by the numerous rats frolicking about. We had gone there on a vacation because I had a cousin that used to live there and liked it. I suppose I had a nice visit but we were both homesick.
I call BS on a couple of your claims. Horses are not left to decay in the streets ever! The lake is not “nearly drained dry”. Rats are no more common her than north of the border.
United States it’s beautiful too!! México it’s magic and inexpensive , it’s why it’s attractive … please Mr. Presidente make this towns walkable and safe sidewalks for everybody , wheel chairs , seniors and little kiddos. Make México great again . 🇺🇸🇲🇽
This was the first of your videos that I have seen. My favorite place in Mexico is Morelia, Michoacan. I fell in love with it quickly when I went for one-on-one Spanish tutoring. The Mexican people are sincere, direct, and so hard working. Over the years I have spent eight months there in 6-week increments. I greatly respect their culture and appreciate the people. I must admit that in watching your video, I felt a bit of a stab at the Mexican people. I felt like you were inserting yourself and expecting them to adapt to you. Maybe that is how most of us from the US visit other cultures. I have always found it more rewarding to allow myself to be immersed in the local culture and to be a student of their gifts. I apologize if I am unfairly evaluating your evaluation. Just thought I'd share another perspective.
Hi Andrew, No offense taken. I respect your perspective of the content and context of my videos, I actually receive a lot of comments how they appreciate my mingling with the Mexican people. If you have a chance, maybe watch a couple more videos to see if your perspective changes. You may also find that my videos are geared toward those who have never visited Mexico so my approach is to address their apprehensions or fears toward visiting.
In Sicily, artichoke sellers go around the town yelling “Carchofi” out of their car window early in the morning so that the housewives (who typically stay home while the men shop) can buy their artichokes in the street! I saw the same thing in Puerto Rico with local vegetables.😁
Not everywhere in Mexico do you need to buy Gas .Many places in Mexico you can just turn the knob on the stove just like in the USA .It all depends where you live .
I love your video. Very informative for sure. I just would like to give you a small tip, in your comments you always say 'North Americans' and exclude Mexicans, you do know we are also North Americans, right? By now you probably also heard the amazing debate of the use of the word Americans in Mexico, because all Mexicans and other citizens in the American continent technically are American too. Better and safer to say USA citizens, otherwise you will get lots of grumpy-crumodgens like me LOL saying this to you over and over again LOL 🤣🤣🤣 However, this comment si coming from a good place. Really, l love your content and thank you so much for sharing your views and experiences travelling throughout Mexico. Ta-tah!!
Dario Diaz - Yes Dario, thanks for the tip. I am aware of this but you know how us gringos lack the cultural history unlike Mexicanos. I would use the proper “Estadonodiense” but that would further confuse them. So since 90 to 95% of my viewers are gringos I will have to use what they are most use to. However I appreciate your help. If there is anything else you find that needs correcting or clarifying don’t hesitate to let me know.
Hi Rashii. My apologies... I am just getting to your question. I love being in both Chapala and Ajijic. Neither are for me personally since there are no beaches. But I am in the minority since there are so many others who have retired there.
@@timelesstravelclub6240 Thanks for replying. I would enjoy being close to the beach as well but I have heard great things about both places. I was trying to determine which place I should visit first. 😄
@@rashiiweaver4230 There is a Facebook Group called Everything Lake Chapala and Ajijic that you might benefit from. There are more than 8k members who are very helpful to any question. Best of luck to you. You have a tough choice to make. 😎
Hola! Me alegra saber de ti. Espero volver a su hermoso Ajijic en 2021 con seguridad. Hasta que sigas practicando tu inglés. Quizás algún día sea tan malo como mi español. Jaja. Quidate.
Hi Candy... There is a gentleman who lives there full time and offers information A to Z about this area. Check out his RUclips channel at JC Travels. He can definitely answer your question.
Never been there, but in other communities For Sure. The most common approach might be to share a 2 bedroom unit, frugal Mexican diet, no car. No insurance. No heat, no air conditioning. Internet at restaurants . . ..? Medication needs? If you do move here , please share your discoveries. Use ear plugs. Be kind and friendly with neighbours. Grow what you can in your home, tomatoes, peppers, peas, spices, aloe vera, radishes, fruit and vegs..lettuce etc. You can basically feed yourself. Enjoy. If u help your neighbors they may give you eggs? Be creative. You can do it…go 4 it.
I've heard nothing but positive things from expats already in that situation. All I can say is the expats take pretty good care of each other. There is an effective expat society they can reach out to when in need in Chapala. If desired there is an impressive retirement home exclusively for gringos that looks nice. If you haven't done so already, look up the videos of Jerry Brown Travels or JC Travel Stories on RUclips for information on this topic. Thanks for watching my video Dolly.
I was not successful so I'm not sure I am a good source to ask, haha. That's not to say there aren't nice Mexican women in Chapala/Ajijic. They will either be locals or vacationing from Guadalajara. Good luck to you.
"The further you get out of town, the poorer it becomes..." "Poor", is a matter of perception. Your perception is distorted by the place from which you came. These people are not poor. Your perception is just distorted.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and images of Ajijic and Lake Chapala. The Peacock Restaurant looks heavenly.
Thanks Karen. Can’t wait to go back!
Food is not good there.
You picked a really great hotel and Casa Mocahete & the Peacock Garden are two of my favorites. Great video of Lakeside.

Internet at restaurants . . ..? Medication needs? If you do move here , please share your discoveries. Use ear plugs. Be kind and friendly with neighbours. Grow what you can in your home, tomatoes, peppers, peas, spices, aloe vera, radishes, fruit and vegs..lettuce etc. You can basically feed yourself. Enjoy. If u help your neighbors they may give you eggs? Be creative. You can do it…go 4 it.
SEEE YO VIVO A 6 CUADRAS DE MARIA ISABEL * . .
My questions is about prostitutes . How much they cost ?
Tell tangerines to go to Puerto Escondido, loll really
i worry about health care for my later years
I've heard nothing but positive things from expats already in that situation. All I can say is the expats take pretty good care of each other. There is an effective expat society they can reach out to when in need in Chapala. If desired there is an impressive retirement home exclusively for gringos that looks nice. If you haven't done so already, look up the videos of Jerry Brown Travels or JC Travel Stories on RUclips for information on this topic. Thanks for watching my video Dolly.
I don’t drink alcohol
JAJAJAJAJA 🤣 CUATRO CUADRAS YOU WORKING FOR STREET AND YOU DOWN,😂🕺
Zeta zeta zeta gas
Jajaja
is this a good place to meet nice mexican women? im from usa
I was not successful so I'm not sure I am a good source to ask, haha. That's not to say there aren't nice Mexican women in Chapala/Ajijic. They will either be locals or vacationing from Guadalajara. Good luck to you.
As a gringo buy good ear plugs to sleep better.
Dave Gizmo I leave the TV on for a little white noise... Oh, and a glass of wine helps too.
"The further you get out of town, the poorer it becomes..."
"Poor", is a matter of perception. Your perception is distorted by the place from which you came. These people are not poor. Your perception is just distorted.
I don't just want to hear you talk. Can you walk and talk please. I came to see the scenery.
Don't say in Mexico you buy a gas tank, not all of us. Watch out with that issue
Hi Adela, I'm not sure what you're message is.
Some people have a big tank like in rural USA, usually located on the roof. They usually have it refilled every few months.
