Bye bye handsome..
What is going on members of the Barrio
It is Jon coming to you from Guadalajara
Where we're going to be
For the rest of the month
And I figured we would start this series on this city
In the neighborhood where we're staying
Colonia Americana
It's hip
There's so much going on
And it is a beautiful sunday afternoon
So let's go for a walk
Hola Adriana
What do you think of our neighborhood
Colonia Americana so far?
I'm in love with it
I love the fact that you can walk around
For example here
There are tons of bars
Restaurants
And coffee shops
And the vibe is so cool
I love it
We are starting the tour at the bottom of Chapultepec
And this place right here
We went there last night
Every single drink is 1 dollar
We are going to be making a video about them eventually
Sushi..
This is pretty much what this area is about
Just entertainment
Bars..
Restaurants
A lot to do
For anybody who has been to Mexico City before
This neighborhood really reminds me a lot of Roma Norte
And Condesa
Kind of a calmer version of the two
And one thing that's been really appealing to me
About Guadalajara so far
Is the energy
It's just a lot more chill than Mexico City
Nothing against the capital of course
But I'm really really liking the vibe here
On the weekend this avenue
Is absolutely packed with young people
Going out to party
This is the place to be
In Guadalajara
All we're passing right now
Are bars
Want to go to Oxxo?
no.
There's an Oxxo on every corner
In Mexico, like there's a starbucks in every corner
In the U.S
True or false?
True
Something I really love about this neighborhood
Is that you find
A coffee shop like every few
Feet
I love coffee shops
Jon knows that
So i'm in heaven
There's one there
There's one here
Everywhere you look
All that talk of cafes
And coffee
We made a quick pit stop
We are walking on Calle Libertad right now
I was reading a guide really quick online
To Colonia Americana
It says this street has a lot of the old Colonial type buildings
Some of which have been converted
I've actually never walked down
This street so we're going to do it together
We just passed the United States Consulate
And I have to say
I love my country
But it is the ugliest building on this beautiful block
Which is sad
But now I know where to go if I lose my passport
This right here is a great example of converting an old house
Into a restaurant and bar
This place is gorgeous
Right behind me here is a classical example
Of the modernization of Guadalajara
We have a food market here
We have another food market here
We've got food trucks right there
It's like hipster heaven
Really
Members of the Barrio
Welcome to our AirBnb
We've rented this entire place
No i'm just kidding
But we did do an apartment tour
In another video
Which i'm going to link to
This mansion here
Is just wow
Ready..
Yes
What's the question?
No question, say whatever you want
Whatever I want
Okay no..
I don't know what to say
I think their is so much to see
I think even now
We still have things to see
I really recommend you to walk around if you come to Guadalajara
And.. find a coffee shop
And enjoy your day here
Alright members of the Barrio
We have just begun to scratch the surface of Guadalajara
We've got so many videos coming up from here
I just wanted to start
From our neighborhood
Tell me what you think
Of Colonia Americana
Are you from Guadalajara
Are their other spots I should check out
I would love recommendations
Feel free to leave me comments
About that
I personally think this neighborhood
Is really cool
Really chill
And I would say it's pretty much got my vibe
I just love all the
Shops
And bars
A lot of things to do
A very relaxed pace
