Welcome back to Hourless Life, where we are overlanding around the world.

-Walk you through a traditional Mexican mercado
-Show you the main garden in the city of Guanajuato
-Enjoy dinner on a terrace overlooking the main plaza

We're driving around the world and community is really important (and necessary) for us! Unlike most people, we can't just call up a local friend and say, "Hey you wanna grab a coffee?" We're essentially out here by ourselves. So we ask you to join our small but growing community that helps us navigate life as friends. If you would be willing to invite us to the equivalent of a cup of coffee once a month, we invite you to join our Patreon here: www.patreon.com/hourlesslife We'd love to get to know you and to have you as part of our special community that helps us get around the world. ~ Eric + Brittany + Caspian | Hourless Life

You did such an excellent job of this video Eric! Thank you so much to you Brittany and Caspian for letting us join in with your day. What a vibrant place indeed! I actually felt like I was right there with you guys. Congratulations Caspian 👏👏👏 👏👏👏 on reaching your goal of reading 1000 books before you turn 5yrs old. Tough challenge but you really are totally AWESOME 🤩. Very well done 👏 … We are all so proud of you. It was lovely to hear him saying the ‘Grace before meals’ at breakfast. It’s just a testament to you Eric and Brittany for the excellent parents you are to him. The concert hall you were in was beautiful. It reminded me of the one I was in in Prague… and so glad Brittany got her balcony seat 😀. Eric thank you again for taking us with you on your incredible journey. I’m loving every second. Did anyone guess correctly how much it cost to spend the night at your favourite campsite? Roll on the next video and safe travels 🙏🏻 🚘

@HourlessLife 2 года назад

Hi Marilyn! Thank you for the kind comments. I'll pass on your congrats to Caspian. He's really proud of having completed his goal. We've really been enjoying our time in Guanajuato and it is hard to believe that we have less than 30 days left in this magical city. I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos. Our next one should be up on Thursday if all goes well. This one was tough to research but somebody had to do it. As far as guessing correctly, I don't think anyone has yet. But most folks have guessed really high! Much love from Guanajuato! ~ Eric

Does Guanajuato feel like a safe city for a woman traveling alone? I notice more tagging and narrow alleyways than in San Miguel or Queretaro. Loved the video!

@HourlessLife 2 года назад

Daisy, we've never felt our security or safety threatened here in Guanajuato. Just like any other city there are going to be areas you don't want to hang out in. But in the historic center it seems pretty safe. We've seen a lot of solo women walking around. Brittany has gone out to a couple theater performances and museums on her own too. Obviously I can't give you direct advice and you have to make your own decision, but we've been having a beautiful time with no issues. Welcome to our channel and glad you are here. Hopefully my answer is helpful to you. ~ Eric

@RPLstudiocity 2 года назад

@@HourlessLife Yes, thank you!

@tomrinehart9762 2 года назад

I was in Guanajuato last summer and there were several women traveling alone. None of us had any problems, just be smart and check your surroundings. There are so many singles there I’m sure you can find someone to walk with you. I’m going back for three months next month.

@nicolebroaddus4225 2 года назад

If you want to build your channel you need to do daily vlogs, show people the real life you live, the good an bad. Once a week is not enough, you guys just shoot us the good mostly, that's not your every day life. Let us experience life with you. I like your vlogs but want to see more real life good an bad struggle's. Much love to you and your family.

@HourlessLife 2 года назад

Hi Nicole. Appreciate your comment and suggestion. Let me explain a little. It usually takes between 1-3 days to film one of our videos and 2.5 days to edit and process it and prepare it for RU-vid. First off there is no way in which we could or would produce a daily video. Even an unedited one. Here's why: We're driving around the world and we actually want to enjoy it and not live our daily life behind a lens or spend it behind the editing screen. So we've committed to try and do one video a week which is a LOT of work. As far as showing the good and the bad. We try and show what our life is really like. Second, we're honestly not that dramatic of a family. We hardly ever have conflict and when we do, we quickly resolve it. Truth is that we are a really close family with very little drama. What you see in the videos is us. On our Patreon we do post nearly daily and talk more intimately about the challenges and "real life" stuff that happens from day to day. But here in our videos what you are going to see is what we can produce while still enjoying the journey ourselves. If you watched our La Huasteca Part 2 video, I actually talk a little bit about our channel and how I don't really care if we become a huge channel or not. That really isn't the main goal. The main goal is to share our story of our drive around the world. The people who I'd like to have here as part of our community are the ones who are interested in the story and journey. This is who we are. Hope that helps give a little perspective and as always glad to have you here. If you'd like more of the day to day, and to hear some of the struggles that we're happy to share, that happens mostly on our Patreon and I'd invite you to join us there even for a month to check it out if you are interested. www.patreon.com/hourlesslife ~ Eric

$1,000 a month living expense ? Con 20 mil pesos por mes vivo en mexico ? 7 mil renta 2 mil - luz, agua, celular 4 mil - comida 2 mil - transporte 5 mil - paseo -----------

@HourlessLife 2 года назад

Hey there, thanks for your question. I've heard of retired people who say they live on $500/month in the U.S. (in an RV), so I'm sure there are places in Mexico where you can live on $1,000. Mexico is huge and diverse, so the cost of living can vary widely. By doing your research on the right place to live and having the dedication to stay on budget, I'm sure it can be done. -B
