Welcome back, Tangerine Tagalongs! I'm Jordan and I'm Maddie
And we are Tangerine Travels. We are back in our previous Airbnb from a week
ago. So So So So excited! We love love love this place!
We booked it again for another week. It is
by far our favorite place that we've ever stayed in all of Mexico of every
city that we have been to. When we got here it just kind of felt like home. It was clean,
It had a lot of light. Laska could run around outside and sun herself
Downstairs, but then also we could leave the door open, and she can't get down
because she's afraid of the spiral staircase. A comfortable bed, our own bathroom,
Our own kitchen, everything we could want in a place. It is safe we have a place to
put our car that's inside gates. Our host, Ana is amazing, and kind, and bubbly, and
just a great person to be around. And it's in a great location a few blocks
away from Avenida Chapultepec. And lots of other restaurants too, and our mango
guy. [laughter] Laska, you shed so much! Dad, don't touch my tail. Gosh, you're embarrassing me.
Do you wanna go for a walk? ROH!
Say He-Roh! He-Roh!
Roh, roh, roh. We're going for a walk.
Hello. Good afternoon. We would like mango, with lime and Tajin, please.
And 30, right? Yes. Thank you. Thank you, may it go well for you.
Hope you guys saw that. This is why we can't take her anywhere! Last time this
happened she jumped up on a cart full of cocadas, and licked one of them, we
hopefully bought the one that she licked. Unconfirmed. Now that is good mango.
This is trenta pesos, 30 pesos, and it's pretty much the equivalent of like one and a half
really, really big mangoes. Or probably two and a half small ones. But we'll stop
there. The list of reasons why we love this place is just incredibly long but it does sort of have a little something to do with some news that
We have to share. And that news might have something to do with the noise you hear.
So please excuse all of the crazy, loud, sawing, hammering, and other things that might be coming from
upstairs. Before we had left this Airbnb the last time
I was getting separation anxiety before we even had left. I was like this is the
best place we've ever stayed. We seriously cannot leave, I don't want to leave, don't make me leave. Please don't make me leave. I went on Airbnb to see what
availability she has for this room. Cuz the week afterwards, there was some dates that were not available, and that's why we had to go somewhere else for a week.
I'm like, what does she have after that? Do we book a month? Do we book 2 months? Can we book the rest of my life? Okay, not that long.
But, there wasn't enough availablity in this particular room, but I noticed that she had another room
that just had no availability on that whatsoever. It was just some other part
of the house. So we thought what the heck. Let's ask her about it, maybe it could be
available, it just needs to be cleaned or something. We posed that question to her
we were like "Hey, we would love to stay here, we notice that you have this other
room. What's the situation?" She said she had been procrastinating
at remodeling it, but she sounded really interested that we wanted to rent
it longer-term. We came to an arrangement. We're not going to tell you what it is
exactly, quite yet. We're gonna save that until we actually move in there and give
you guys a tour. That construction you hear outside is for our remodeled room
that we're going to be staying in. And we'll give you a little teaser of where
we're going to be staying. Just be forewarned, it's under construction. We don't
even fully know what this place looks like, so that's a little bit crazy, but we
had a little walkthrough where we saw that it had what she described as the
area for the future kitchenette. There's a little living room area, a balcony. You
go up the stairs and that's where the bedroom is. We also have our own private
bathroom. And again, there's a lot of light coming in. It looks
like a really great space. And then of course we have all the same things
that we loved about this place. The safe neighborhood, the covered parking, it's
gated. Laska has somewhere to run around, and to hang out on her own balcony. So we
were absolutely stoked! It was like oh my goodness, if this can be ready in a few
weeks totally!
Even if it's not ready, I mean, if there's a few things that need to be done still I think we were both like the
The concept of apartment hunting and maybe trying to find someone who could cosign. So that's
our exciting news. We informally made an agreement with Ana that we were going
to be renting the room upstairs for two whole months. We prepaid to get a little
bit of a better deal that way. Again, we'll go into more of these
details when we give you the full walkthrough when everything is all done.
But we are so, so thrilled to be staying here in Guadalajara over the next two
months, starting next week. Are you excited to stay here?
Are you excited to stay here?
Laska, you gotta do tricks for your fans. Sit, yes! Circle, yes! Lay down. Out of the kitchen.
Oh, Jeez! Are you okay?!? Here, have all the treats.
So this is pretty big. Our original plan was to travel throughout Mexico going
from place to place to place, just exploring the country, for three months,
four months, six months, or until we found somewhere that we really, really
wanted to stay. We thought we were going to go all the way down to southern
Mexico. The last place we thought we would end up staying for a longer period
of time is a place right in the middle of the country, Guadalajara. You know when we were first
considering traveling through Mexico, we saw a YouTuber's video who was living in
Guadalajara at the time. I first thought about Guadalajara...
Okay, you know what, if I tell you this
don't you dare unsubscribe. Don't you dare. I will never tell you a secret
again. In my mind, I thought Guadalajara was like a jungle with mud huts or something.
I had absolutely no idea anything about the city at all. So to think now that
we're gonna be spending the next two months here, or many more time, it's crazy!
there's no mud huts by the way. I'm not sure if I'm glad or disappointed.
No, but it's a beautiful place. We're just like a - I am speechless. We're so excited to
start this next new different journey. We can feel it that there's just amazing
things on the horizon. Hopefully you will join us on this journey. There is gonna
be some shenanigans ahead I just know it. If you would like to continue with these
shenanigans and be a Tangerine Tagalong, don't forget to
