Hello, I'm curious if you can tell us if there are any expats who have moved to Parral from the US or Canada. I live in El Paso and have fallen in love with Parral from David's videos, and I can't wait to visit your lovely city. Thanks.
@@markasdievovaikas Hello Markas, to be honest, i don’t have idea if historically any expatriate took refuge in Parral. But, I know in times when mining was very prosperous, there was a large American population, and proof of this is many very old tombstones in the municipal pantheon of American people descent.
@@jocelynealbarios3691 Hi, Thanks for your reply. Being such a lovely city, I would expect there must be some expats who have moved there, that's why I was asking.
My great grandfather is buried in Parral. I've been told. Roberto P Cowell. I need a contact there. I'd like to visit. Don't know best way to get there. I'm in California.
Hola, soy una maestra orgullosamente parralense, el monumento de los niños es por qué en la historia de las revoluciones cuando estados unidos quiso venir a pelear con México Elisa griensen en conjunto con algunos alumnos de esa escuela con piedras y palos hicieron que las tropas estadunidenses se retiraran de este sitio, aún te falta conocer de mucha historia y si algún día llegarás a regresar con gusto te acompañamos para que conozcas aún más de nuestra querida ciudad, que también es llamada la capital del mundo, en el mes de julio se festejan las jornadas villistas y estaría padre que vieras todo lo que se hace aquí, un saludo enorme y gracias por visitarnos
Es muy interesante, lástima que sea por puro tema turístico, por que he hablado con historiadores que dicen que Elisa es muy probable que no haya existido, no hay ni acta de nacimiento o algo que compruebe su existencia e historia
Mi parral hermoso un pedasito de la tierra mia . Conocida como LA CAPITAL DEL MUNDO Tengo un sin fin de fotos y la ultima fue en el enorme caballo de Pancho Villa AMO MI PARRAL pronto estaremos ahi de new GRACIAS X ESTE HERMOSO RECORRIDO Y Q BELLA EXPLORACIÓN DE MI LINDA TIERRA PARRAL CHIHUAHUA cerca de la sierra tarahumara Y de SAN FRANCISCO DEL ORO CHIHUAHUA Y SANTA BARBARA CHIHUAHUA mina la prieta lugar turistico entre otros bellos lugares
Gracias por tu visita... En semana santa Parral está muy tranquilo dedicado a la oración 🙏🏻ntros valores mejores son como dice ntro escudo de Parral SOBRE TODO LA FE.. Las áreas turísticas está época están cerradas.. Pero el corazón de los parralenses abierto.. Bendiciones David!!!
Gracias Leticia! Después de mencionar sobre la Pascua, recordé que mi experiencia anterior en México se trataba de estar en silencio y concentrarme en la fe. ¡Gracias por la aclaración! Realmente es lo mismo en el Reino Unido, no sucede mucho como se ve en otros países (como España, por ejemplo), se trata más de simplemente ir a la Iglesia.
Wow note que te apellidas Corral igual que yo! Mi abuelo era de Parral Chihuahua , quisiera saber si es verdad que hay muchos Corral en Parral Chihuahua
I started a RU-vid, only so I could watch your channel. I have watched your videos, before. I just need to watch more. I like how you’re so real, like most regular people. No sugarcoating. Just a regular normal man, exploring new places, and giving an honest opinion. 😎✅
Hi, I'm from Parral, Chihuahua, and I hope you had a great stay in this great city. I would have liked to have been your guide. excellent video! keep it up!
Hello, I'm curious if you can tell us if there are any expats who have moved to Parral from the US or Canada. I live in El Paso and have fallen in love with Parral from David's videos, and I can't wait to visit your lovely city. Thanks.
Ah sh!t, I'm supposed to be out here doing yardwork and Tao of David puts up another gem. Well, I guess this is why I hit the bell for notifications. Time to take a break folks, tending to the shrubs can wait for a bit.
I think one of the reasons the north is quiter is because of the weather , it is or to hot or to cold to be outside selling stuff door to door because the centre has temperate climate all year long and the south generallly is always hot so the people are more easily accustomed of being in the heat.
Buenos videos que comparte de nuestra hermosa cd. Hidalgo del Parral Chihuahua. Creo que le faltó haber hecho un recorrido turístico guiado para que conociera un poco más de nuestra historial.
Se huviese dado un turs en el piojito para q lo huviese llevado a la mina la prieta y otros puntos turisticos aparte del centro el Rio hermoso todas esas calles heran mi pasada diaria rumbo a mi trabajo y de regreso a casa Gracias x difundir un pedacito de mi hermosa tierra Parral chihuahua méxico
Great video! If you like Parral, you will LOVE Santa Barbara Chihuahua! it's only about 30min away from Parral and is actually the oldest/first city of the state of Chihuahua! That is where the mining started and still mining to this day!
Brilliant! I remember reading about Santa Barbara when I was researching Parral! Unfortunately I left Mexico a few months ago but as per the last 8 times I left I'm sure I'll be back jaja
I really don't understand why you only have 30k subscribers, it is probably more your passion than monetizing what drives you to make those awesome trips and videos. Keep going my friend! And thank you for visiting those amazing towns!
Thanks man, it's never been my primary income (I wouldn't want it to be either). Teaching English is. You're right, if it was to be my primary income I'd purposely stay in one country where I have a larger audience like Serbia or Mexico, but that defeats the object of travel! Basically you go to another country and it's like starting from zero because subscribers don't watch. I could easily just stay in San Miguel doing expat videos to make it a primary income but I'd rather shoot myself lol Also being a solo male is an immediate handicap, and a lot of people struggle with a British accent, at least that's what I tell myself lol These are actually my final videos as I'm moving on to different things in life!
@@davidostrowski679 Hi David! Good luck on your new project of life. You are evil man because you made us kind of addict to your contents. You got the skill to capture a different perspective of every town you visit and your drone 4K videos are probably some of the best footages that those little unknown towns will have ever (or probably the only ones).
@@davidostrowski679 ok..ok....very well....welcome to Chihuahua...i hope your stay in this state from Mexico will be the most enjoyable experience in your live...welcome to Mexico !!!
Hi David, my health is such that I’m not getting out much these days and I so much appreciate watching your travels. Love your down to earthness . Cheers!
Hi, David! Your videos in Parral have been eye-opening about this undiscovered gem of a city. As you say, 'Top Tier'. I especially loved today's 4K walk-around video. I've fallen in love with the place and Parral really appeals and beckons me to come there. The shopping street must be lovely at night when the strings of lights over the street are lit. The inside of the older church with all the gold-leaf is beautiful. I love the stately old Colonial era buildings and the other colorful Mexican style buildings. What an enchanting place! Besides in Mexico, the only other place I have ever seen street sweepers has been in Vilnius, Lithuania, where every morning outside my apartment building there would be a little old woman sweeping the street like crazy. During your travels in Chihuahua state did you use the Transportes Chihuahuenses bus service? If you did, I'm wondering if that was a positive experience for you? Parral would be an 8 hour bus trip from El Paso, and I guess that's the bus service used to travel across Chihuahua state to Parral. I'm wondering if any Parralenses can tell us if there are American or Canadian expats living in Parral? I would expect the Mexican cost of living in Parral to be lower than in other bigger cities in Mexico. David, it's truly ADMIRABLE that you have shared and exposed so many positive aspects of Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua City, and Parral. Who the hell else except you would do this on RU-vid? (None of the other Mexico content creators.) You should be made an honorary citizen of the state for all of your goodwill toward Chihuahua State!
haha thanks man! Funny you mention about Vilnius, I have seen the same in Minsk and Krakow but not to the same degree. Not in Riga though! Oh I miss that area of the world! Re buses yes I used them to get to Creel although they were operating under Rapidos Cuauhtemoc (the bus signage was Chihuahuenses). No complaints! I'm sure I used them last year too. I honestly can't remember who I used to get from Juarez to Chihuahua though (I have a brain like a sieve)!
Cost of living in the whole state of Chihuahua is higher that any Mexican southern state!!! And that is because we are really close to the States!!! And than the closer you get to the Sierra Madre gets even higher, not to tell that up the Sierra the cost of living goes 2X fold!!
@@JoseRamirez-rh3jd Thanks so much for sharing this surprising information. I guess Its understandable Chihuahua would be more expensive being nearer to the US, but I never knew this. And ironically, here in El Paso on the US-MX border, we have one of the lowest costs of living in the entire US.
I can definitely sense this through cost of Airbnbs. In Juárez the prices were crazy compared to southern or Central Mexico. Sonora looks pricey too but I found somewhere reasonable in Obregón for a month
Mil gracias por mostrarme mi Parral bello, hace varios años que no voy y en verdad me trajo tantos recuerdos en verdad se lo agradezco muchísimo 👍😘👍👍👍 mil mil gracias
Nice! And I must say your pronunciation of the rr is so much better! It’s so peaceful with the birds and quietness at the beginning. These are nice because you can just look around and “walk” streets you wouldn’t really get to see. Cheers!
@hayven angoromanana tu país se ganó el odio y rencor con mucho esfuerzo. México nunca le ha hecho algo malo a Estados Unidos jamás nos hemos metido en su forma de vivir pero sus gobiernos gringos nos han jodido la vida y no somos su patio trasero de juego. Los toleramos porque no hay de otra forma pero muchos mexicanos no tiene amor por los gringos y yo me sumo y más que por las personas es su actitud arrogante de yo soy mejor que tú . Cuánto daño a hecho los gobiernos gringos a toda Latinoamérica con su proyecto cóndor donde ha desestabilizado gobiernos para hacer sus exerimentos sociales . El gobierno gringo introduce armas a toda Latinoamérica y se las da a los grupos de choque para crear conflictos entre las personas aún en pleno siglo 21 siguen queriendo meter las narices donde no les llaman incluso ustedes sus ciudadanos son conejillos de indias para sus experimentos deberían reformar su propio gobierno y sacar las ratas corruptas del país gringo como lo tratamos de hacer en Latinoamérica ya estamos cansados de que países extranjeros intervengan en los nuestros.
Did you see the hole on the Juárez statues leg? (Not on the video) Supposedly the tour guide said it was a bullet from the Villa ambush that did it. ..
I cried. in used run in those streets. I remember the MERCADO where the Spanish statue is now at. I remember seeing Blue Demon and Santos vs Los Monstros in the now closed theater🥺
Great work David, l found Parral to be a very attractive town, l don't know the population but it seems to have feeling of a small town. It has those mysterious abandoned buildings and an old mine site, and the austere hills around. By looking at your Northern Mexico videos it looks like mining has been and is big in the Northern towns and cities. As you mentioned in your first Parral video the town sits in the desert plain, l got the same feeling with other cities in Chihuahua and El Paso too.
Chihuahua tiene 3 ecosistemas ,sierra ,paztisal y desierto ,somos conocidos por VENCEDORES DEL DESIERTO ,PERO TAMBIEN DE GANADERIA INDUSTRIAL, PRODUCTOR DE LECHE ,DE CARNE QUE ES LA CARABLANCA ,LA PRODUCCIÓN MAS GRANDE DE LATINOAMÉRICA DE LA MANZANA EN LA SIERRA DE LOS ASADEROS ,QUESOS MENONITAS ,Y UNA DE LAS 10 ESTADOS MAS ESTABLES EN ECONOMIA EN EL PAIS ,OVBIOOO NO NIVEL DE MONTERREY O GUADALAJARA ,PERO SI LOS 10 PRIMEROS SIEMPRE !!
@@GKBIP yo diria Chihuahua tiene lo suyo y tiene muchos recursos, por lo que tu mencionas, y potencialmente mas rico que las areas de Monterrey y Guadalajara, gracias Wilhmeine.
@@franciscosaldana2879 bueno ya sabes ,ahí lugares y tal vez por el clima que no les gusta el estado a diferencia de esos estados es más tranquilo ya que Chihuahua,capital lleva un poco más del millón de habitantes ,pero ya sabes la gente se va por lo más popular ,aunque enveses no sea lo mejor ,saludos
Very nice David, very strange to me also. Not many people, relatively clean, mostly middle class maybe, trucks all over the place, the weather looks hot as the desert but maybe it isn't, maybe is like cold in winter and hot in the summer. All closed is what m makes it look like a ghost town.
yep very quiet but it was just because it was 830am on Easter Sunday, I walked past the cathedral the night before with a huge service, I guess a lot of people still sleeping!
Well, Happy Easter week! Perhaps you celebrated through being there and noticing. Why not get a gig at the Cambridge English school I saw? That would be a twist. Pancho's horse seems to like you. Your double R is terrific now. Perfect walk-around day - dry places mean pretty shade. Top tier! I'd make my big old Mexican building green. Captivating somehow. I like this type of video. Talking about the siren reminded my of my grandmother saying that when they electrocuted prisoners in Columbus Ohio in the very early 1900s the lights might flicker. The nuns would pray. Sounds more Mexican somehow. We all have a more robust electric system now right? - even if the rest of it continues. Thank you for this half hour. Stunning!
Mexico was the New Spain, you see European architecture especially in states like Chihuahua which is in northern Mexico, very concentrated Spanish ancestry there
Mexico is developing pretty fast lately, Mexican gdp per capita is the same as South Korea gdp per capita in 2004 and it’s growing pretty fast, the poverty rates are getting lower too. I mean, that’s a small town, maybe it has 100,000 habitants and is not an important city in Mexico, so as you can see Mexico is not as the media shows, even the small towns are already pretty developed, the poorest part of Mexico is southern Mexico but still is getting way better. Greetings bro
Are you from Spain? Yes it’s a small town, it has around 100,000 habitants, so is not an important city in Mexico but still it looks pretty clean, I’ve been there a couple of times
Ese monumento de Francisco Villa se vería mejor en la estación de ferrocarril, en esa parte estaría mejor, porque es una planicie y no hay casas tan serca y no le quitan vista. Y donde esta no luce como debería esta muy grande, y la vista no es tan buena no luce; Aparte que la estación de ferrocarril tiene historia porque ahí llegaban los carros del tren con villistas. Si se ponen a observar estaría mejor en la estación.
Hermoso parral, y sus mujeres las más hermosas 😍 y me consta mi última novia era de ahí, lo único malo es que son muy interesadas, pero no todos aclaro ah! Y la gent3 de ahí super amables
@@juanfranciscocorral osea hablo el Ignorant jajajaja estos quieren novia y todavía quieren que los mantengan ,si t cayó el saco ,póntelo !! Para codos !!
hey guys, within Mexico I pretty much use all of them, more commonly Vivaaerobus, but I've used Volaris, Interjet, Aeromar, AeroMexico and a smaller one I can't remember the name of from Los Mochis to Chihuahua last year. Getting too and from Mexico (usually to Europe), I've used AeroMexico to Madrid from CDMX and Lufthansa to Frankfurt. In 2020 during corona I had the chaos drama in Cancun with my flight disappearing so I ended up having to book a last minute one with Air Canada and British Airways to London. On the whole, I've never had any issues with Vivaaerobus, they are usually my 'go-to' if possible!
Not possible I'm afraid. #9754 of being shouted at for getting someone's face on camera means I don't involve other people. I've had people demanding payment if they end up in a shot, and have lost count of the times people have accosted me and stood there while I deleted shots with them in... in Mexico, Serbia, Brazil all this year. Hence I am moving on to different things in life which I actually enjoy!
@@davidostrowski679 I hear you. I guess you could arrange interviews… But I just want to say that we really enjoy your videos - and there are still many we haven’t seen yet.
Chihuahua is a clean state, the dirtiest city is Juarez but there’s many factors that affect the cleanness of the city, like the excessive amount of immigrants from other countries tryng to cross to the us They don’t have a place to stay so they usually don’t care about the trash, I saw that with my own eyes, sometimes they do a mess
La verdad no ahí nada que ver , da miedo ver una mini ciudad con las cámaras tapadas con bolsas negras le da la vuelta en menos de 30 min jajaj no ahí comercio solo un Walmart y pizza dominós . No dejan entrar franquicias parral Tierra de nadie da miedo viajar por su carretera .
