Try Finding THIS in Mexico! ๐ค๐
As we've been traveling throughout Mexico, we've discovered that some things are very difficult to find here. If you're in Mexico and looking for these things, we wish you luck!

Mexico! is a beautiful country .. good for you
Great post..
First impression always last longer truly. Ever since i saw the woman that helped Maddie with her backpack, i have been more sensitive to see the pattern and trend with Mexicans. They are always willing to help and they are incredibly nice. From the outside, you would think they are hard people, with so much criminal activities but no. They are incredibly nice and warm.
You go around the streets and you hardly see people begging which supports your observation that, there are no lazy people there. I totally love this. It makes it easier for people to help and do good for these hard working people.
They are humorous too. They could have told you guys off when they don't understand your Spanish like Maddie also pointed out. Rather they laugh and try to tell you the correct ones.
Wait...did jealous Maddie kick in? Hahahahahahahaha.
You guys are really fun and thanks for all that you do.
I was told it was hard to find good shoes... then you found a whole mall of them. Itโs often (but not always!) a question of knowing where to look.
Also, please note, Jordan you did not โfindโ a cute white girl, you brought one with you.
There is really a whole lot of things that you can't find in Mexico! You are right about the language! I'm from Slovakia but I used to live in Belgium and now I live in Switzerland and I'm married to a Dutch guy. Do you think I could use my Slovak in any of these cases? Of course not! I made so much effort to learn languages because I can't expect anybody in Belgium or Switzerland to speak English :) And believe me it is easier for me to learn Dutch than for my husband to learn Slovak :) I was so lucky and I never met anybody who would be making a comment about my language skills. And I'm so happy because I would probably react the same way as you would :)
Thank you for sharing this great video! I really like following your adventures!
Mexico is a nice and beautiful country to visit, what I like most of the mexican is their hardworking nature they always work hard and hustle to survive . They are also hospitable and accomodating people , really a nice travel experience you guys are having @tangarinetravels
Black tea, peanut butter, and pastries!
Bodega Aurerra had black tea, but it had bergamota in it, which when i looked it up was said to be a citrus fruit used in witchcraft to contol the minds of others!
Not surprising knowing the bodega is walmart!
I did find black tea, but the tea bags were 1/3 the size of what they are in the states and the price, 22p for 25 bags, was at least double the united snakes' price.
So, bring tea with you!
Green and various others, apple, pepperment, chamomile, etc are common.
Peanut butter is in tiny jars, outrageously expensive, as is real butter.
If you like no bake cookies bring the stuff with you.
Pastries are disappointing here, which may explain all the pretty smiles, less sugar means fewer cavities!
If its made by a corporation it will cost the same or more.
If its made in mexico, its cheaper.
If you are retired, you are silly to let the language stop you from living here, likely you can afford a tutor to come to your house to teach you spanish!
You can definately afford someone to cook and clean.
200usd a month will likely get you one.
Unsweetened drinks ๐ ...this is def a cultural thing. Even here in the US, if a mexican person is making my coffee, i always ask for LESS sugar.
That's why we get all of our high quality linen from the US, here in Tijuana.
Maybe because you guys are from another country every one is willing to help, but we do have assholes.
That's interesting, I have never guess that one about coffee since we have very good ones here.
Mexican don't really like frozen food or canned food, although there is Costco in Mexico so your best bet of frozen food is there. I don't know if there is a Costco in Guadalajara.
That's right, everything you drink in the street or in a restaurant or whatever has sugar and maybe lots of it, Mexicans don't really like bitter tea or even coffee.
5 pesos are 5 pesos, bathrooms are a commodity I guess.
We in Tijuana go to the US for our electronics, that's why we just bought them through the internet.
Air conditioning is expensive lol.
You are right, you don't see people say "In Mexico, we talk Spanish!" or "If you can't talk Spanish go back to your country".
I'm from Latvia. In Mexico, nebyl.No I would like to visit. And in Europe, you are not going to travel?. There is also a lot of interest that you can see.
Serious๐, all those things? This a great Mexican guide for nomads, thanks guys
