Staying Overnight in Mexico's Safest Town (#4) 

This a a man of wisdom, tolerance, patience, curiosity and gentleness. Maybe one day USA is gonna have a president like him and what a celebration of humanity that might be.

Man it would be awesome if you went back to this town, explored more. Your channel is so underrated, I’ve been watching different expats for a while and you’re by far the most transparent not bullshit RU-vidr. Keep it real vato

Really nice little town. And you can't beat having a room for $9. Friendly people as well like that older gentleman.

The old Mexican dude telling you to go to the bushes "a echar una firma" had me in stitches.

I'll buy you a virtual bottle of mezcal if you know someone from this town

From doing Mexico videos to Uganda videos This man is awesome 👏

I've watched two of your videos and had to subscribe. I think that what you're doing is really cool. I was born there and have never returned, so I'm visiting my country through you. Keep up the good work.

binged watching ur channel !!

Merrida is the safest city in all of North American apparently apart from maybe a small Canadian town mixed story’s as to why this is true but my brother in law has just moved there from ciudad de Mexico and he loves it especially with young children

I knew how safe it was going to be when both the teenager and the woman walked away and left you standing at the open doorway.!

Dude, first time I watch some of your videos, RU-vid recommended. Now I’m a subscriber. Good luck. 🤘🤘🤘

Yes cute little place, too bad to hear about safety issues in other parts since Mexico seems like a really interesting place with a rich history and people look genuinely welcoming.

The VW in Mexico is a “Vocho or Bocho” different people spell it differently. They were made in Mexico starting in the 70s and even though they look old many are actually from the year 2000. Veracruz was the first city in Mexico to be introduced to the vw “Vocho” via the first of them being brought through the Veracruz port. So, the “people’s car” eventually became super Mexican. 🇲🇽 . They are Über affordable in Mexico btw.

Reason you sew VW bugs are because they were made out Of puebla and other regions for many years until the end of production

Tommy, that's a nice little town. You have a unique way of making your videos.

Loving these small Mexican towns!

Actually in Mexico the most dangerous places in which you can be assaulted is in public transport such as the subway, on buses and the called "combis" in those places is much more likely. It is rare to be assaulted in broad daylight or at night on the sidewalk. Anyway, if you are walking on the sidewalk, never walk in uninhabited places or apparently alone.I am referring to those long streets in which there is no one at first glance and in which there are no houses.If you pass by, it is likely that if you run into a motorcyclist or a driver, he will get out of his car to assault you.But as long as you walk through the houses or if you want to call them a neighborhood, it is safer.

When you step away in Mexico and go for a Firma ( English for signature) and no restroom is near you go behind a bush or a ditch and do a " signature ". We men when we pee do lines , circles etc eventually doing a " Signature" and that's why we use the slang word of Firma when we go pee behind a tree or such.

The man at the restaurant seemed like a Disney character

that town looks so nice to just relax and enjoy a meal on the calm street

My third video of yours and I am hooked. My parents are from Mexico and you are hitting all the areas that typically I tend to visit. You were asking about the Vochos and the reason you are going to see them in small towns is because most major cities have pollution laws and these vehicles no longer meet the standards so most vochos have been sold to provinces

Mexico produced almost all the Beetles from 1954 to 2003 so yeah, the Vocho is pretty common there.

thanks for all the interesting videos. Maybe you can do a future video of Uruguay

I looked at Trapiche del Rosario on Google Maps street view and it looks like a clean little town. I like the little colorful houses there, looks similar to Papantla which I visited a few years back.

Hey man, just wanted to say you give me the same inspiration to learn new languages (Spanish now) as Laoshu did. Rest In Peace.

Awesome video Bro. I would love to visit Veracruz. I have a very good friend of many years that’s from there. Maybe I can go someday with her and my wife. Saludos

Damn videos I haven’t seen before? Idk how I’ve missed these.

Inaonekana in kipupwe season there....tommy you have a good looks with a cape 🇹🇿

It sounds do quiet and peaceful there.

I love your videos mate, what do you do for a living? Can't be cheap to fund all these travels.

You deserve way more subscribers

The Volkswagens?....Mexico was the only country still making them until fairly recently long after all other countries stopped. That is why you see so many there.

i love your videos so damn much. especially you in tanzania

I found you by looking up japan travel. Saw both japan videos . Great videos. I decided to go back and watch your earlier videos. This video was cool in Mexico's safest town. I noticed you said your American and Canada is cold for you lol I'm from Toronto it's no colder than new York . you would be find. Plus Toronto has got hot humid summers. Vancouver has mild winters no snow.

dood, how many languages do you speak?

The reason you think you are seeing too many old bugs is that they aren't old. The Mexican plants are still cranking out those old rear-mounted engine model bugs!

Volkswagen beetles were built in mexico until 2003,long after they stopped in Germany and Brazil, that's why there are still many around,

Not so much in Celaya but you're welcome to visit.

Nice job

I believe one of the last large Volkswagen factories was in Puebla...so another reason why you see so many in Mexico, especially certain parts(?).

You're enjoying the beauty of the universe

everyone there seems so nice! now i want to save up money to go there lol

México is part of " America". Alot of ignorant people think "The United States" is America. The entire continent is America, north, central, and south America. That is why it's called The United States of America.. You go to another country in Central, or South America and say "I'm an American"...yes, and they too.

In Mexico, Bettles they are economical in gasoline and they are classic cars for collection.

The molds for the VW were sent to Mexico decades ago so they manufactured them in Mexico and maybe Brazil.

Brutal honesty

Super interesting following you :)

VW Beetles were in production in MX until 2019 I think.

No crime in a place where organized criminals kills all of the low tier criminals

So many side quests on this channel

we use miles not kilometres in the uk also bro .btw haha obv ..love the video's ..real cool bro

There are many small places in Mexico that are very peaceful and safe actually.

That old guy at the taco place seemed really nice

It’s looks very nice in Mexico

this place looks similar to costa esmeralda at the edge of veracruz near tamaulipas

You are seeing a lot of “old” Volkswagen beetles because there was or still is a Volkswagen plant in the neighboring state of Puebla . They made this “Mexican old “ beetle up until 2003… nothing to do with the “new beetle that came out in the late late 90’s…..

❤️❤️❤️

VW Beetles were made in Mexico for many years at the Puebla facility.

VW Beetles in Mexico are called “vochos”. A friend of mine had a vocho with a molded plastic box on the back, making it into a little van. It seemed to me like quite old. So I asked him if it was like a 68, and he looked strange at me and said it was a 95. Oops. After the original VW Bug was made not regulation in the US, they continued quite some time to be made in Mexico. In 1989 I was in Mazatlan where a type of like open golf cart built on a VW Bug drive train were used as taxis, quite dangerous it seemed at the time.

El Vocho esta una presente para ti amigo alleman ;P me amo mexico

The reason there are so many V-Dubs in Mexico is because there was a production plant that was rolling them off the line until the late 90's.... I beleive, maybe a bit into the 2000's. Anyways most of them you see are the 73' model, but only 20'ish yrs old.

Sabbatical - I keep thinking Louis Rossman if he was into languages instead of computer repair.

Échate una firma ahí 😂 awevo 🇲🇽

Im sure somebody already said this but mexico got the stamps to make the vw beetle sometime after vw stopped and they built them till 1996 I think. maybe 93. I live In Cali and if you get one of those bettles you cant get it registerd.

vivo en un pueblo de veracruz mexico y tambien es muy seguro

Canada here: All I saw was the title "safest town", start vid: WHY does it look like you're in the start of a tsunami ? Why are you OUTSIDE..LOL, that wind does not look right....

🎯

you didnt quite get the right answer ; the volkswagon beetle istill being produced in Mexico

Mexico made the old style VW Beetle for decades after the Germans moved on to different things. They're everywhere in Mexico and fairly cheap but you can't bring them to the US.

The Volkswagen were mass produced in Mexico 🇲🇽 and shipped all over the world.

Veracruz has some of the friendliest people in Mexico (Poza Rica excepted!) Food and lodging are very economical, excellent fresh produce. Winter weather can be crappy, and the Gulf Coast is hardly paradise. I didn't see sun for 14 days straight last winter. Government and police are very corrupt. Political murders are common, but street crime is rare.

Tommy, nine bucks.... I'd stay a whole month, restaurant down the street ... wonderful people.... best deal ever.... I want to go ...., better get a visa ... cause I want to stay for a while.

My NIGGA KEEPIN it 💯 👌 💪 🤧 😤 🙏 💯 👌

Harald they’re coming for you buddy.

it is such a shame what happens in this beautiful country and to those friendly people.the normal people dont deserve all that cartel war shit.

Mexico's Safest Town is actually Yucatán.

Out of all the countries you have visited. Which country you like the most?

that unnecessary flush of the toilet really bothered me. we are experiencing global water shortages sir.

I inyou your vedio because l never been there beautiful

Crying

What is the name of the town?

Are you serious? "Authorities hailed the decline to 34,515 in , but that was only 133 fewer than the 34,648 committed in 2019. ... The decline is equivalent to just over one day's worth of the average daily toll of 95 ."

Long time no see gringo 😅

bro dont pee on the crops xD you will kill them they meant the bushes even just that direction xD also those plants are worth like 12 dollars $50-60 in the USA for that size

I have a long face and always wear cap backward when I go out. If I wear jacket like the one Tommy wearing I would be looking exactly like Tommy ! Except I am a Asian. So i guess I can call myself an Asian version of Tommy the traveler.

Your from American or you were trying to say United States

He said to that women that he's an American and even for him Canada is cold. Bruh, you're from New York, it's no more cold in a lot of Canada than it gets in New York. Only the prairies and in the territories which it in the arctic circle. You're going to have people thinking you step foot from Buffalo into Ontario and there are igloos.

v.w made in mexico arent they?

I'm moving ... to retire in this town.

Dude, you are like a clone of another youtuber american, but he is focused on motorbike content, u guys look like u got the same evrything as a person, looks, voice and personality, his channel is joego101

Do you need a cameraman or traveling partner?😊

Actually urine is water to a plant

A little more Mexican than Cuba!!

sabbatical speaking that Argentinian spanish

More subs ND likes please Sabbatical fam ND friends

BTW... You are still in America. In fact you haven't left North America. You left the United States. Mexico is only one of the countries situated in the Americas.

No todo mexico es inseguro

The world needs more public toilets. Everybody has to go many times a day.

Did you take psychology or something?

Hablas como un argentino
