CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO | The CLEANEST City in Mexico? | What Filming a MEXICO TRAVEL Video is REALLY LIKE

CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO - Is this the CLEANEST city in Mexico? Welcome back to another Mexico Travel 2021 video! This is part 13 of my 2021 Mexico series coming from Chihuahua in northern Mexico!
In the last video I had a nightmare. An awful pizza which everyone recommended, 35km of walking, Mennonite communities with seemingly not a human in sight and an unintentional overnight stay in Cuauhtemoc. This time we are going with the flow. We’re having a leisurely stroll around Chihuahua Centro, checking out some of the things to do in Chihuahua with various spots with history relating to Miguel Hidalgo such as the Palacio Federal or Casa Chihuahua, the Templo el Francisco Asis, the government place, plus Quinta Gameros (closed) and the bizarre mannequin at a bridal shop which is said to be an embalmed corpse! (not on display). We also have hamburguesas al carbon and elotes (also esquites when it's on the cob!), great examples of affordable mexican street food!
The main gist of this video is chilling out and how I have got around my youtube burnout issues recently. Recommendations are great but they don’t necessarily translate into filming a KZbin video. These two things are completely different!

If you're thinking about moving to Mexico or becoming one of the increasing number of expats in Mexico, your choices aren't limited to popular areas like Guanajuato, San Miguel de Allende, Cancun or Puerto Vallarta. You might even be looking for off the beaten track Mexico. You might ask the questions, "Is Mexico Safe?" or, "Is Mexico dangerous. Sinaloa is a state that, granted, you'll need to be able to speak Spanish in, but the city and state has so much to offer, just as much as those other places!

Hi everyone! I'm alive! (you'll know what I mean after the last video!). This video is a continuation from that video. The good news is, my burnout has been resolved via a burnt burger in a burnt out building! Note that I KNOW Chile Pasado is a common dish in Chihuahua but a) I had it on another day but didn't really like it, and b) the whole point of this video is that the things we actually want to do which aren't recommendations are sometimes the best things! Note that I've already left Chihuahua and I'm currently filming in Torreon. There's going to be a small break between travel videos now due to this, you can expect the next big travel one on Saturday 7th August, FROM GOMEZ PALACIO! *SUBTÍTULOS EN ESPAÑOL PRÓXIMAMENTE/SUBTITLES COMING SOON - I'm sorry, it takes a number of days for this option to become available on KZbin* You can check out the following if you like! - My website - www.thetaoofdavid.com/ Music used in videos - www.thetaoofdavid.com/youtube-music Merch site - www.thetaoofdavid.com/the-tao-of-david-shop Book English lesson - www.thetaoofdavid.com/book-english-lesson

I used to live behind the Quinta Gameros, on Calle de La Llave, when I was a kid. It was a museum back then. We used to sneak in jumping the wall close to the back fence. I remember there were tarahumara art, clothing, photographs and even skeletons in a basement used as storage. As far as the street burgers..., there's lots of them as well as burrito stands

Finding things by yourself and discovering without knowing it was there is one of the best things in travel. Don't feel pressure to visit everything, every traveler should create their own experience. BTW, after traveling to Europe I notice how terrible pizzas are in Mexico.

[@MariaMarquez-ok4hf]

Wow that was fantastic! The stormy skies really enhanced the effect. Loved what you said and you’re so right about it all! That burger looked MUCH more appetizing than any meal in a fancy restaurant where expats dine! (Also, eating it where you did is much more comfortable than being in a ritzy restaurant!) Sharing your childhood memories was such a nice touch. Am happy you’re going to go where you want, eat what you want, and follow your heart in what you film. You’re right; random discoveries made on your own are much sweeter than any recommendations. ❤️❤️

Hello David. I have been your fan and follower for years!!. And the reason is that you are HONEST and sincere, and that comes across in your videos. I will miss you greatly when you go back to your normal life. You are right, people here in Mexico ignore the places or things you have shown in your videos. They say, TE FALTO'. As I have told you before, I love England and is so much fun to explore the streets. Different districts of London. I love Blenheim, the castle where my HEROE WINSTON CURCHILL was born. God bless you in your endeavours. You have achieved so much in your young life. Be VERY PROUD OF IT. I will never forget you. I truly love every video you have done. You are a great communicator. You certainly have a way with words.

Without anybody recommending it you found one of the hidden gems in Chihuahua, those "Hamburguesas al Carbon" (El Papillon) have been there for over 20 years (I'm thinking it's probably going on 50+ years now; not sure) and have stood the test of time. This was a great video and regarding the "falto" thing, you're 100% right, it's a recommendation and our language lacks the negative connotation that "missing out" on something implies, but you do you my guy, people will all have their favorite places, foods and experiences but we also have a saying in our culture "para gustos colores", You can think of it as a twist on "to each his own".

Thanks Rudy!

What's up David! I was born in Cuauhtemoc and currently live in Chihuahua, and I can relate to the recommendations ending as a catastrophic experience. If you ever find yourself coming back and have an idea of what to visit I'd love to tag along! Nice to see someone being honest about his experience and I will definitely subscribe. Keep it up!

[@davidostrowski679]

Thanks! Yes although recommendations can be so useful and over the years I know Mexicans particularly offer them in good faith because they want foreigners to experience everything, but it's not always possible!

@@davidostrowski679 As a current resident of Chihuahua it's awesome how we can appreciate our home a little more thanks to your videos. Hope to see you soon here! Mexico es tu casa amigo!

[@jorgemedinaregalado490]

This was such a cool video man!, you show both sides of the city, people often think northern Mexico is just dust and cactus, they don’t know we have some of the biggest and most advanced cities in the country. Hope you enjoyed your stay. Did you pass through Periférico de la juventud? That’s where the most money in Chihuahua is invested. Greetings from Chihuahua, Chihuahua. If you ever come back, you’re welcome to come over to my place.

[@davidostrowski679]

Gracias Jorge! I don't think I went to that area. Unfortunately my time was quite limited as I had to get to Torreon. I guess that means I'll have to return!!

[@mssclaauuss]

Hey David. This is the first time I see your videos. Honestly. But I really love it. And I thank you for coming and visit my city. Yo I know I think that we (people who live in Chihuahua) don't even realize how beautiful it is until we see a video like yours. And I liked a lot that you visited and showed what was interesting to you. From your very own perspective. Greetings Love your English accent.

It is a beautiful city, greetings from Morelia, "Ciudad de la Cantera Rosa".

Loved this video ❤️ No BS real life travel

[@davidostrowski679]

Thanks hun! And thanks for the insta message!

Great video. Absolutely spot on with the ex pat channels. I was watching one thinking it was a travel vlog and they were just talking about the difficulties and blah blah blah. I like your videos as you show the real Mexico (or wherever you are), not like those boring generic couples filming high end places. I also remember in the 90’s, when I travelled for 15 month round the world. I was sitting outside Sydney Opera House and a local said I must be having a great time. I just nodded, but that particular day I was feeling pretty crap.

[@davidostrowski679]

OMG! I had a similar experience at Sydney Opera House in 2001! Two friends and I had just arrived from somewhere, maybe Bangkok, and it was one of those nightmare flights with a long connection. We forced ourselves to immediately go to the Opera House. I fell asleep in front of it. LOL. Fortunately I went back about 15 years later to see it when awake! LOL

Thank you for showing the places from " a lay man point of view" a tourist on foot👍

[@paulorobertosouzalima6057]

Doce México; vibrante México; lindo México! Saudações do Brasil ao belo país irmão!

[@paulorobertosouzalima6057]

Chihuahua povoou minha infância no Brasil; pois toda sessão de circo iniciava com a música:"Jesusita in Chiuahua"

[@FinnDelMundoTravel]

What a video!! And that ruined building you found to eat your burger inside: absolute paradise!!! 👌

[@davidostrowski679]

Wait until Gomez! I got chucked out of an abandoned building! HOWLING

[@manuelburciaga8016]

Mate this video is lovely! I'm from Chihuahua and I couldn't explain the way this video made me feel, as I've been far from home for a long time too, traveling as well maybe not as much as you are, I had the fortune of living for few months in your country too, lovely people and I wish I could the same about your food lol, anyways thank you for making Mexico as great as it actually is.

[@davidostrowski679]

Manuel! I'm glad someone else understands! Haha I feel the same about UK food. 5 years without it and I certainly don't miss it!
