  • Welcome to Guadalajara, Mexico! This week we're exploring the second largest city in Mexico and seeing what all it has to offer. From the fastest restaurant in the world to the largest bar in Mexico, to incredible architecture and historic Pueblo Magicos, this town surprised us and we fell in love with yet another Mexican town.

    Hey y'all! We're Chris + Sara (or as you know us, Let’s Be Us), a husband and wife digital nomad travel duo currently working and traveling full time with our pup, Kramer. We've always dreamed of traveling full time, and in May of 2018 we took the leap and made it happen! Today we're balancing work and fun everywhere between the Pacific and Atlantic. From hiking and cycling to tacos and coffee, we're trying to see and experience as much of this world as we can! While our home is currently on wheels in our DIY Sprinter van, our travels take us all around the world.

    I appreciate the suggestion you offer to take a step away into nature when any environment is overstimulating. Having just returned from a few days in Smoky Mtn Nat'l Park, that has been our experience as well. Merlin is a great app for casual birding. You're correct in comparing an ahogada to a dipped Italian beef! Love that overhead drone shot near the end!

    i love ur honest reviews guys, and yes, Guadalajarais the THIRD biggest city in mex. Monterrey is the second and the richest city in mexico, its like the Mexican new york. Though, Guadalajara is clearly super important, its one of the stars in mexican tourism, culture and econmy, i'd place Guadalajara in second in culture rating. Clearly a must in visiting mexico list, u did right on doin it.

    • @RobertEchten
      @RobertEchten Месяц назад +3

      What is your source for this? I have always heard GDL is the second biggest cities and after reading your comment I did a quick search and found that there are a few cities mentioned between Mexico City and Guadalajara, but those are basically suburbs of Mexico city. Monterrey shows (in multiple results) as 9th... But to be fair, I also always heard that Monterrey was third...

    • @brandonleon4068

      @@RobertEchten it's basically a war between the three cities. Monterrey is the richest, since the north of Mexico is the most industrialized part by far (or was until recent year) so there's a pushing to the point that many people from that zone think they sustain the Mexican economy, Wich is wrong, it's like the Mexican Texas actually. I said Mexican New York or Chicago in the sense of population and modern skyscrapers.
      Guadalajara is the third in economy and it's "paired" to Mexico city in the cultural way. In the sense that many many cultural expressions and evens are placed there. The two main Book festivals in Mexico are México city and Guadalajara. And the biggest universities of Mexico are MX CITY, Monterrey and Guadalajara.

      @@RobertEchten México is very variate as u know, so there's not actually like 3 or 5 cities that accumulate everything, except maybe for México city but as u can see, is the second or even third in economy (mainly bcs they're non that much factories but enterprises of services and stuff)
      Also is super important to know. One thing is cities and another states. The positions are different in the different rates
