This is a beautiful video, reminds me of many Mexican Americans that go back to Mexico to reconnect with their roots. Tu Rancho reminds me of Puebla my parents are from small pueblos. I can't wait to go and take my kids so my kids and I can reconnect as well. Saludos de 🗽👋🏼

[@EatBailaTravel]

I love this because our hope with this video is to display a rancho that people can relate to. Yes this Rancho is specifically where my mom grew up but so many ranchos are similar and most importantly it’s the people who make these ranchos so special. So it makes me happy you can relate. Saludos!

Thank you sooo much for sharing your family home and for giving us all a glimpse into rancho life. My mother was born in Zacatecas but then her family moved to San Juan De Los Lagos and she never got a chance to show us where she came from since she died 2 years ago. So your video meant a lot to me. I was able to imagine her as a little girl walking along those winding roads and living the life your beautiful mom so vividly described. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I honestly don't know how or why I stumbled across your channel but Im so grateful that I did. Your mom is so sweet and so captivating as she tells her stories with so much pride and joy. You are very lucky to have her. I can see how much you love her and treasure her. So please continue to honor her and make her proud. I miss my mom so much everyday, but this video connected me to her and for that I am eternally grateful to you. Infinite blessings to all of you. Mil Gracias!

@@EatBailaTravel i dont I'll tell my dad when i see him me and my dad last time we went was in 2018 before that the last time he was there was 55 years ago. When he left to the states my grandfather killed a guy in that town when he was 12 years old something that happened at that time his dad sold some of his land to get him of jail. We stay at a family house on my grandpa side he is a priest in that town. Its crasy after so many years the priest said when we went to the town a lot of people knew we were were family members of my grandpa. He said we owe death there thats why my dad never wanna to go over there ,i noticed there is young kids with guns before u go inside the town . The priest said that they want to know who goes in out of the town but because we were with priest we didn't get bother. I went to jalpa to its very closed by tabasco Zacatecas the pityas are very good over when there in season. I do remember my dad told me Chicago was the first town he work when he was 15 years old when came from mexico.

Hey again guys!! 1.30 in and I already know this is going to be a super great vlog. Your grandfathers ranch is clearly such a special place for you, and listening to you talk to your mum (with subtitles on 😂 ) was super heart warming. It's heartbreaking but also lovely that your mum feels so happy when she comes back, and then get sads when she leaves - clearly this place is special to her as well. I can only imagine, after seeing the house your mum grew up in, that moving to the US would have been a massive culture shock. The rodeo was such an interesting sport, I had never seen it before, but the community aspect is lovely. Thank you so much for showing us around Jenny, this was such a wonderful video to watch 😌

[@EatBailaTravel]

Hey friends! Thanks so much for watching - glad you enjoyed it. It's such a learning opportunity for me every time I visit my mom's hometown.

I appreciate you all for leaving your thoughts on this video that is so meaningful to me. Saludos

This was very interesting. All four of my grandparents were born in Mexico but my mom and dad were both born in the U.S. my mothers grandfather was born in Spain so it’s really great that you can trace your roots at least to your grandfather. My mothers dad is from Jalisco and her mom is from Tepic. Unfortunately I never have had the opportunity to visit either of those great cities. To think that your grandfather was an Ejidatario is absolutely amazing. You’re very lucky that your mother took you to visit her puebla and immerse you in your Mexican heritage.

[@EatBailaTravel]

Thank you for sharing with us, we were both very fortunate to have the opportunity to visit Mexico as children. We don't want to lose those roots so those roots called us back.

This video fills the heart. Jennifer your Mom's hometown is about 130 miles from my grandparents home in Aguascalientes. It's not too close but the landscapes looks the same. Watching your video makes me yearn for a return to el rancho de Ojo de Agua. Yes, the same name which I'm assuming is common in Mexico. It is great to be able to visit the place of your ancestors. Many people don't have that connection which is unfortunate. It is a small part of ourselves that make us whole.

Andres, thank you for sharing I look forward to watching your video! Yes it seems Ojo de Agua is a common name for communities because of the availability of freshwater.

Órale, que chido! Me encantó el recorrido. Me recuerda a mi rancho (San Pablo del Sur, allá por Altamirano, Municipio de Ajuchitlán), solo que el tuyo más fancy, jajaja Conoces de Sarah Paradox (Sarah La Morena)? Es una cantante Afro-American adoptada por una familia mexicana. Del US, se fue (más bien, se la llevaron) a vivir a Zacatecas. Ahora regresó al USA y canta música de Zacatecas. Se la recomiendo. Canta, "La Llorona", muy bonito. Ándale, my mom has told me about the right to go back to the rancho and ask for land--almost for free! (Some tax) She's told me the exact thing, you mentioned. Increíble lo que cuenta tu mamá su sentir al ir y regresar al rancho. Es un sentimiento muy común de los mexicanos de EEUU, seguro estoy. Saludos estimados, muy bonito relato.

[@EatBailaTravel]

San Lorenzo más fancy que otro rancho? jaja ese sí nunca me lo esperaba 😆 no conozco a Sarah La Morena, gracias por la recomendación, la buscaré. Como siempre, gracias amigo por ser parte de este canal!

[@enoch7132]

[@EatBailaTravel]

😮 do you have family from San Luis Potosí, too?

[@eljuezdredd798]

También mi familia es de rancho en Michoacán pero nos salimos por la pobreza y la violencia, de que te sirve estar en un rancho sin prosperidad y donde la gente te tiene envidia hasta de los zapatos que traes, mejor nos mudamos a la ciudad de México y mi hermana se fue a EE.UU pero ya se quieren regresar pero a la ciudad de México a Monterrey o Guadalajara no ha a ranchos en ranchos no hay nada solo violencia

[@EatBailaTravel]

es una triste realidad ver como se van decaendo los ranchos. En algún tiempo fue vida sana y la violencia se esta acabando con ellos :(

[@DannyBruceWayne]

Is it safe to go?

[@EatBailaTravel]

Where, to Zacatecas? Not really, to be honest. The city of Zacatecas, yes 👍🏼, but I wouldn’t recommend driving or going outside the city of Zacatecas unless you know a local who can help guide you and tell you which areas to avoid and whatnot.

[@DannyBruceWayne]

@@EatBailaTravel i want to go to Guadalupe, Ciudad Chauetemoc & ojo caliente i would also like to go visit Aguascalientes any advice please advise👍🏼 your videos are awesome

[@EatBailaTravel]

@@DannyBruceWayne gotcha, I think that’s fine to do, just be sure to avoid the carretera libre (if you’re driving) between Zacatecas and Aguascalientes. It’s not safe - even my family who live there avoid it.

[@alexsuarez8567]

Yall still mexican no matter were yall were born...you can get mexican citinzinship by law if your parents are mexicans

[@EatBailaTravel]

And we did 🤗 we love having dual citizenship 🇲🇽🇺🇸

[@wetguavass]

America is a continent.

[@EatBailaTravel]

You are correct!

Mexicans from Mexico are proud to be from Mexico because they are from the country. I love that but they need to realize that real Mexicans are 100% Native such as Oaxacan, Nahua, Mayan, Mixtecos, Purepecha can ttuly say they are 100% Mexican. They still know their true language of Mexico. People in Mexico make fun of and bully indegenous Mexicans. When they only speak spanish thats not the true language of Mexico. These same Mexicans are ashamed of indegenous language and call themselves real Mexicans. For example people in Jalisco have alot of ancestors that are Spanish that migrated and settled in Jalisco. These same people are white skinned, with colored eyes, light hair. These people claim Mexican but they claim it because they born in Mexico. But they have no Native Blood of any Mexican native in them. So these people with light skinned, colored eyes, light hair are not real Mexicans. We are all Natives. Ten states were stolen from Mexico, so Chicanos are cousins of Mexicans only because the 10 states were stolen from Mexico.

[@EatBailaTravel]

Yes absolutely. Colorism is unfortunately rampant in Mexico, not in the same way as the US, but it’s definitely a socio-economic issue. I’ve been wanting to do a 23 And Me or Ancestry DNA just for the fun of it

[@erectus007]

Que lindo es el rancho donde vivio tu Mama !

[@EatBailaTravel]

la verdad que sí ❤️

[@paulgutman5811]

Now that I no longer border hop like I used to when I was younger, this video brings back many pleasant memories associated with my connection to two countries, two cultures, and two languages. (Yo también soy bilingüe. Mi mamá [que tiene casi 102 años] y yo siempre nos hablamos en español.) Videos like this one are excellent examples of how you don't have to choose between loving/appreciating one culture or the other when you can love/appreciate them both. Se me hace padrísimo. (I think it's super cool.)

[@EatBailaTravel]

wow what a blessing to have your mom for that long! glad you appreciate this video, these are super special to us personally ❤️🤗

[@paulgutman5811]

@@EatBailaTravel El 6 de junio de este año cumplió 102 años. Se llama Consuelo. Congratulations to you both for your love and respect for two beautiful countries, languages, and cultures. An open-minded attitude is a wonderful thing. "Ay nos wachamos." (Ahí nos vemos.)

[@EatBailaTravel]

Hehe great to embrace el espanglish 🥰🤗 gracias Paul

[@LizaJaneFlor]

This pulling down if the calf is a ranch skill. You have to get them to the ground to vaccinate them, spray them for ticks, and brand them or tag them so if they get out of the fence you know whose it is. My family is from Tamaulipas and we have a ranch we can no longer visit bc of the cartels occupying the area. But every year we would come at Christmas to do that for my dad’s cows and calves. My cousins would come from San Francisco, New York, Boston, Chicago Dallas and all over to participate in Herraderos every year. What a lovely memory… thank you💕

[@EatBailaTravel]

Thank you so much for commenting and sharing your knowledge with us. We barely scratched the surface with rancho since there so much to learn about life in a rancho. Sorry to hear about what’s going on with your rancho we hope that can be resolved someday. Saludos y un grande abrazo para a ti y tu familia.

[@fernandoprieto2865]

Sweet lady

[@EatBailaTravel]

[@adrianalarcon9988]

No veo la necesidad de hablar en ingles todo el tiempo....... muy buenos vídeos!!!

[@EatBailaTravel]

Hasta ahorita la mayor de nuestro público es anglosajón pero tenemos pensado abrir otro canal en español o más 50/50 bilingüe 🤔

[@languageguy5539]

You guys do great work. This is my favorite of your videos so far. I didn't know that the person sitting next to you in the thumbnail was your mom, Jenny. I thought you guys had met an "expat" from the US who was visiting Mexico, based on the video description :) Thank you for sharing your family story. It was honest & beautiful.

[@EatBailaTravel]

Wow that’s very interesting you say you didn’t think it was my mom! It makes me super happy that you enjoyed our video! We are going to start working on the next one so stay tuned! Saludos!
