I’ve been blessed to visit many parts of the world, Italy France Greece Holy Land recently Dubai and others. Every place has charm, and I thank God for the privilege of seeing His wonders …yet I must say Mexico City is on top of my list for its gastronomy, folklore, authenticity, culture! There’s museums, castle, parks, pyramids, art/theatre. I even like it more then New York City.
I havent been to Dubai or Greece yet, butni HIGHLY recommend italy. If youre into coffee, stop in Turin, visit the Egyptian Museum too. People think its dome food heaven and it is, but uou neednto do your research. Not all restaurants are great. I enjoyed Italy more than France by a landslide though. People in Italy are much nicer, kinder, I speak a little french but it didnt matter😂 Italians were happy to speak italian with me, the french were actually quite disgustingly rude about it. The french pastries, amazing bread, cheese and wine make up for it though😂
Exactly, letting away the big salary gap between the USA and Mexico for a moment I totally agree, electronics since all the times are actually more expensive than in the USA so there can be things that not everyone can afford for, but at the same time there are some amazing things that aren't expensive like fresh fruit, meat, vegetables, restaurants, desserts, etc... are fairly priced that even someone who isn't going well economically can still enjoy some fresh fruit juice or going to a restaurant with the family, even to vacations to the beach
@@geevee9582 I'm not the person you addressed your question to, but in Mexico City almost everyone eats out. Especially at street stalls. It's cheaper than making it yourself unless you have a family. I live in Roma Norte and it's even cheap there for street food. Restaurants are on the expensive side in my opinion, but I'm cheap so I hate spending 💰 for food. I do like margaritas, and the best place I found for drinks were inside the first floor bar at the Sheraton hotel, but they're $15.00 each 😔. Enjoy your stay.
If your in the us you can bus to Mexico it just takes a few days, i’m from Canada takes me about 4-5 days but given border times and delays up to a week
Vivo en Yucatán pero he ido a CMDX y esta chido pero prefiero mi estado, es más tranquilo y no hay tanto tráfico Solo somos 6 millones de personas en un pequeño espacio xd
Yes! We went Memorial Day weekend 2018… I told my wife: man there’s a lot of Americans here all of a sudden (speaking English). It turns out many travel during these holidays when it’s so expensive to travel in the states, and visit Mexico to then venture out to other beautiful parts in like Oaxaca. I also wish to visit its nearby cities Polanco and Cuernavaca.
Love Mexico. Spent two weeks in the country touring Guanajuato, San Miguel, Queretaro, Celaya, Jalisco. Went down there with only $1000 came home with $200 bucks.
I remember one time another manager in the company had gotten some free tickets to go to a San Francisco Giants game. The next time offer came up he declined it. He said after paying for parking, food and drinks it cost him a couple hundred dollars to take his family.
I've been traveling a lot the past few years (I work a more traditional on site job in the hotel industry, so I'm def NOT a digital nomad, nope just three weeks of PTO now) and people I work with are always like how do you travel so much? Honestly, its traveling to countries where the US dollar is strong. Working in hotels helps also. I'm not a super budget traveler, I don't do hostels, but I'd like to think I'm budget friendly. I've done a week in Bogota and a week in CDMX with friends, everything including flight, hotel/airbnb, on ground transport(uber, taxi, etc), and on the ground spending were both around $1k per person per city, again that's EVERYTHING in total spent. I live in the metro area of a major east coast city in the USA.
I live in Cali, in most mom and pop Mexican restaurants you can get a plate of chilaquiles for 10$ (sometimes less) and if you eat in water is free. How tf is that place charging you 200 pesos?! Se pasan 💀💀
It just makes me upset because good food is cheap and attainable. In America we’ve made the cost of food, housing and other basic necessities so unattainable!
Jaja lo mejor para el mundo, mientras los paisanos ganando lo minimo y los extrangeros viviendo en mexico, trabajamdo en linea ganando dolares y sin pagar impuestos en los estado unidos y gastando pesos mexicano. No ves la desventaja que se esta creando en México??? El presidente deveria hacer algo al repecto, talvez deveria deveria pedirles identificacion y permiso de trabajo para que trabajen en mexico en la industria mexicana y que gasten en pesos, ademas sus permisos deven de limitarse a una cuantas semanas o meses, y si desean quedarse por mas tiempo deven derefularizarse en mexico
In Thailand or Vietnam, $20 would get you a delicious dinner and drinks. $15 for a full body massage that would leave you feeling great, and you’d have $65 left in your wallet. In Mexico, dinner would cost you $60 and you would not have enough money for a very average massage because they are $70-80.
@pablerry I have had some delicious tacos de carne asada like 7 of them and it was around 8 dollars then I went to eat some tortas especial it was around 6 dollars and ended the with a gansito and a coke and had 4 dollars left all that for less than 20 bucks
100$ x 14 days x 2 persons and a kid + flights and accommodations. that’s what people mean by expensive. Not spending 1 day in mexico as a single youtuber.
Papa Guapa is nice, but is not the best baked potatoes, that was El Papón, it was located in the border between La Condesa and San Miguel Chapultepec, their potatoes were heavenly delicious, sadly the pandemic in combination with greedy landlords destroyed them.
100 in Mexico a day lmfao? Ummmmm so thats what i budget in Vegas for a day. So Mexico City is basically as expensive as Vegas with zero to do but a Luchador match? I went to one for 5 bucks last week in San Antonio.
Isnt mexico kidna cheap with hotels like you can get a room for a day with 10 dollars / euros and well i have no idea of how many pesos that is im supposed to go to mexico next summer where should i go i want to go to some place that has like all the stuff like mariachis and cartels hanging round the city
Esto depende de las zonas de la ciudad y horas, no toda la ciudad es así. También con el tiempo se aprende a como cuidarse, que hacer y que no hacer para evitar una mala experiencia.
We went for 9 days used Uber majority of our stay (including to and from airport) and I kid you not I don’t think we spent over $100 USD (this was in 2018 when dollar was like 20 pesos). 👍
More than 50$ you spent i wouldn't do that since i don't like junk food and unnecessary box match. :) My day probably will be less than 10$ being famous stingy traveller.
