As someone who lives in Huatulco, but works in Canada still - road laws. While at home a stop sign means slow down unless someone is coming the other way, because if someone is behind you they don't expect you'll stop. Also, when you're a little slower on the highway and want to let someone pass and you move partly on to the shoulder and turn on your left turn signal to tell them it's safe to pass me on the left, not I'm turning left.

@Moni_type1 19 дней назад

Great informative video. Made me chuckle in some spots. Can't believe the foreigner won his law suit against Gaby's, makes me so angry.

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Glad you enjoyed it. I can’t believe it either. What a shame.

@krl5852 19 дней назад

Can’t wait for more “hand gesture” language in up coming videos. #1 is so true!

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

There’s a lot of them that I didn’t know about!

@alendryaldimera 7 дней назад

Ditto. Give us a hand gesture video!!

Very nice! Where in Mexico do you live?

@mrmanny 19 дней назад

@@MovingToMexiCo A tiny pueblo inland from PV called "El Cimarron Chico de la Raicilla". When you talked about the culture shock, when visiting your home country. I'm sure I'll be thinking of your video when that day comes. Appreciate the Content.

@bilrmjl2 18 дней назад

Thank you for going to another town and showing us a little about that area. Even now when I come back from my vacation of 3 weeks I am saying things in Spanish. It's hard to go back to English...lol😁

I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😃

❤wow I love their Beach it has an tables chairs and umbrellas already Now that's what I want to see❤❤❤❤❤ I'm planning to move into mexico soon in two years soon ..Good bye US

@MovingToMexiCo 16 дней назад

I like that they have that as well. No need to bring a bunch of stuff to the beach. But you will need to pay for the rental. Thank you for watching!

@brucedonogh3006 13 дней назад

Fun video Paul . San Poncho looks nice also clean from what I saw. Have never been there. Put it on my bucket list.

@MovingToMexiCo 13 дней назад

@andreamartin8832 19 дней назад

We moved back to the states last June for our son to finish high school & next year go to college. We miss Mexico so much. The US seems boring, bland and not really like home any longer. On the 5 yr plan to leave for good. ❤🇲🇽

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

I know the feeling! Best of luck with your journey 🙌

@keb107 18 дней назад

I’m an American and I have a hand gesture for the American that lives next to Gabbys.

@MovingToMexiCo 18 дней назад

I had said that in my video but I decided to leave it out 😂

@RodHardy 19 дней назад

I'm back in Texas for only three weeks and you're correct about the subdivisions. There's plenty of Tacos everywhere here in Texas and yes Mexican style too. Gaby's has lost the lawsuit and their entertainment license now. I have gone to three donut shops while here on vacation in Texas and have eaten way to many along with chocolate milk. lol I use all those Google Translate features often especially on some future tense verbs. I can't wait to get back home to Bucerias in about two weeks and enjoy the Low Season which is my favorite season. I enjoyed your video as usual. Bucerias Rod

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Thanks for all the good feedback Rod! What a shame about Gaby’s. Keep enjoying the donuts!

@stevendesmond7064 19 дней назад

The food in texas is sooo good!

@jvahl8747 17 дней назад

Wow, very sad to hear about Gaby's 🥴 This is Mexican culture! Why should they be forced to change because of Americans?? The amis should have moved somewhere else!! No wonder why Americans are no longer readily accepted...the few arrogant trouble makers put all of us in a bad light.

@MovingToMexiCo 18 дней назад

Very cool! Love San Pancho 🙌

I am jealous of your donut! My grandpa was a baker and made cake donuts. IMO, no other type of donut compares!

@MovingToMexiCo 18 дней назад

I am now jealous of my donut too. 😂

@RoamingRobinToronto 19 дней назад

Loved the info on the hand gestures:) OMG, that silly person with the lawsuit against Gabys. Did this individual not research the area before coming there? It reminds me of people here in my neck of the woods who buy houses close the airport then complain endlessly about the airplane noise. Hope you and your family are doing well.

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. I don’t see them being welcomed into the community at this point. All is well and I hope the same for you 🙌

@RedroomStudios 19 дней назад

hopefully the cartels will take care of him.

@suzannekuolt895 19 дней назад

Wonderful video! Like others, this made me smile and laugh… Learned the ‘yes’, finger sign ages ago and actually forget and use it in the US when I return. Also, the one that resonates is the directions…soooo true!

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Glad you enjoyed the video Suzanne!

@dianaj3139 16 дней назад

I love your observations! YES, Mexico does have a lot of gestures! It's fun most of the time. Hey, I really want to encourage you to try to get an interview with Astrid * wife of the creator" of Shaun in Paradise on RU-vid. She is such a unique and talented lady and is from GERMANY originally. I believe she has some great stories to tell. She does make brief appearances on her husband's channel, but I think you could show us the genius that she is! Anyways I would love to know how she compares living in Mexico to Germany. I love both countries, but there are some pretty big differences :) THANKS for all you share here... I always love your interviews!

@MovingToMexiCo 16 дней назад

I will look into that. I’m always looking for more people and stories to tell. Thank you!

@roserose7978 19 дней назад

@MovingToMexiCo 18 дней назад

Triple verification 😂

@cwisaac22 19 дней назад

Thanks for the great content. I am from the US and living in Guadalajara. the Gaby's situation is embarrassing. And a lawsuit? I would've hoped it would have been laughed at and thrown out of court when it was filed. But I guess if you have money that lawyers (even in México) are willing to represent.

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Agreed. It is unfortunate.

@yishislassieswaiting4748 19 дней назад

The crazy thing is when the foreign phrases come out totally unconsciously years later. (From someone who has worked for years in several different countries.) &; >

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Very funny! Some phrases sound better in other languages.

@shaykespeeer7040 17 дней назад

Don't move to another country and expect that countries citizens to change just for YOU. YOU are responsible for adapting to that countries society, NOT the other way around.

@MovingToMexiCo 17 дней назад

Absolutely 👍

@philschiavone101 18 дней назад

Lol, where I am from, Spanish is spoken about as much as English.

@BPe-ie9je 19 дней назад

is there a low season inland?? ??Morelia?

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

Good question. Yes, Morelia, like many tourist destinations, experiences high and low seasons. The high season typically aligns with major holidays and events, such as: - **November**: During the Day of the Dead celebrations. - **December to early January**: Around Christmas and New Year. - **Easter week (Semana Santa)**: Often attracts many visitors. The low season generally falls outside these peak times, particularly in the summer months and the periods between major holidays. The weather in Morelia is relatively mild year-round, so the distinction between high and low seasons is more related to cultural and event-driven factors rather than significant weather changes.

@RedroomStudios 19 дней назад

yes, but it's not as extreme. it generally follows the timelines of the dry and rainy seasons. there is also a bump in late July to late August when Mexican students and teachers are on summer holidays.

@watdahek2 22 часа назад

As of two weeks ago. Gaby's was told by the government to stop playing live music. It looks like the American dollar means more to the government. Really sad.

@MovingToMexiCo 21 час назад

Yes very disappointing.

@garo52 7 дней назад

Hola,!! 🎉 I have a young dog I would bring with me to mexico ..is there decent veterinary care in the area ?

@MovingToMexiCo 7 дней назад

Yes. I take my dog to one in bucerias. I’m sure there are good vets in Sayulita too. maps.app.goo.gl/S6HHrGWFecQ3FTUc7?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

@Blondipidy 19 дней назад

I´ve lived in Mexico for 4 years now and have been back to the US 2 times. Every time I go back I don´t recognize this country anymore. People are unhappy and there are things showing up in bathrooms and public places that I don´t even know what they are. I call them the ït generation¨because they have no real intuitive understanding of what it is to be a human anymore. I´m a stranger in a strange land in the US

@MovingToMexiCo 19 дней назад

For sure. There’s a lot of weird things happening up north. Hopefully it doesn’t start down here 🙏

@alendryaldimera 7 дней назад

Since Google Maps exists, there is no reason... ever, ever, ever... to ask a strange person for directions.

@MovingToMexiCo 7 дней назад

I dont know about ever, ever, ever, ever. Here are some reasons you may still need to ask a strange person. 1. Local Knowledge: Locals may provide shortcuts or alternate routes that Google Maps doesn’t show. 2. Personal Interaction: Asking for directions can be a way to engage with people and learn more about the area. 3. Network Issues: Poor internet connection can make it difficult to use Google Maps. 4. Battery Life: Saving phone battery by not using GPS can be crucial, especially if the phone is running low. 5. Complex Environments: In places like large markets or malls, human guidance can be clearer than a digital map. 6. Safety Concerns: In some areas, it might be safer to ask a local rather than looking at a phone, which could attract unwanted attention. 7. Cultural Experience: For travelers, asking locals can be part of experiencing and learning about the culture of a place. 8. Real-Time Updates: Locals can provide updates about current road conditions, construction, or other immediate issues that Google Maps may not have yet updated.
