First Impressions of Guadalajara, Mexico
Рет қаралды 14,750
Күн бұрынWelcome 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 loved the tour, I was born in Guadalajara and this city has a lot of places with different types of food so you have to stay in the city for a lot of months to visit as many restaurants as you can. My favorite dish is quesabirrias (quesadillas with birria) so you have to try it! It's delicious.
@AtelierOfWeebs 15 күн бұрын
The secret to that restaurant is they cook a large amount of meat before hand and they keep it hot, they know it's the star dish so by the time you order, they're already serving it, it's meat cooked on it's own natural juice, which is the literal translation of "carne en su jugo" (Meat in it's juice) The tortilla, since it's a soup-ish very wet type of dish, isn't supposed to be used as a taco, it's more like you roll out, or break it on pieces just to moist the tortilla

Hi, I found your videos recently and enjoy them. In 1972 I went to Guadalajara for a month from California. Even though my family family is from Guadalajara I hadn't been there before. At 19 years of age I absolutely fell in love with the city. For the first time in my lifevI felt that I was where I belonged and probably would have stayed if not for the US Army had other plans for me during the Vietnam fiasco. When I finished my military stint I planned to return to Jalisco but then life got in the way. Anyway congrats for doing what many of us didn'tl follow your dream.

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!

Thank you so much! Guadalajara is a super interesting city. Really all of Mexico is wonderful from what we've seen, but Guadalajara is a cool place to visit because you get the big city feel and can combine it with some really nice small towns to get the best of both worlds.

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 2 ай бұрын
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 2 ай бұрын
@@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.
@brandonleon4068 2 ай бұрын
@@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
