Hi Maddie, I used to produce and direct and host cable television shows, a sit com and bi linqual documentaries on wild life. I owned my own small production company. The difference between what I did and what people like you do is, 1. I had crews and groups of people that I was accountable to and 2. I was a trained professional and my personal life and my personal details were not part of the show. There is this narcissm connected with you you tubers. If you have any success it goes to your heads and erroneously you think your life is of importance to your "fans". You reveal too much about yourself which puts your life, your privacy and even your finances at risk to anyone who wants to exploit you. If you disappeared off you tube completely...not many people would give it a second thought. If I was you, I would seriously consider closing down this channel completely and starting out on a new path. None of these shows are very memorable and you are giving up your very life for a few coins and your fifteen minutes of fame. I am 74 years old and I think you made a big mistake deciding not to have children with the love of your life. As time goes by, you may not have that choice again. Before it is too late, if I were you, I would go home, get a job using your language skills (like court interpreter) find a great guy, fall in love and have a beautiful baby. Just my opinion. You tube is destined to fall apart sooner or later...everything does, and then what will you be left with just a bunch of footage of misplaced youth and opportunity.

[@stuart_oneill]

With your super lite complexion the North Country makes sense. Now you have to take us to Amsterdam!

[@btk1243]

Your biggest mistake on KZbin: You have not 'accepted' that YOU are the star of the channel. It's not Mexico. It's not Vegas. It's YOU. So, as you move forward, tell stories that you are passionate about, and your audience will follow . . . . All The Best

[@dianaj3139]

EXACTLY!!!!! :)

[@kurtsims]

And travel to other countries sometimes! If you ever want an Ace (asexual) bodyguard/cameraman to travel along, just let me know! ;-)

[@kurtsims]

and it is MaddieGold not MexiGold so @btk1243 and others are right. ;-) I hope you and your dad's health improves. I left Disney World, where I lived for 6 years because my grandmother was getting older. I only had a couple of years with her before her Alzheimer's started, so it was a good move. I just should have returned to Disney but I started my own business (webhosting and design), and I'm lucky it will allow me to become a digital nomad hopefully next year sometime. Look forward to seeing the natural beauty of Arizona for now!

“Failure is not the opposite of success. It’s part of it.”

[@charwest9449]

Oooooh I like this saying!

[@4sername]

Sometimes a person fails, becomes aware that they're not meant for it, and moves on to things that he or she is better suited for though.

[@charwest9449]

@@4sername Yes, that's exactly how failure can be part of their eventual success. If they take the information gained from the failure and correctly apply it. Success does not mean beating your head against a brick wall, trying to break through it. Sometimes it can mean finding a gate. Or building one. Or finding a ladder. Or digging a tunnel. Or creating what you need on this side of the wall. Or going in another direction to find what you're looking for.

[@dannysolis5309]

She hasn’t failed but… I like your quote .

[@4sername]

@@charwest9449 I can admit when I failed at something and that it wasn't meant for me because I am not made for it. I have no need to warp it and be like "it's a part of the bigger picture." I have the ability to move on, start over, and if I fail at that too, leave that as well. I have had many accomplishments in my life because I persisted, but also many failures that I moved away from to save time for tasks I am actually suited for. I do my best to not be delusional about my failures, sometimes it is a sign that I should stop and do something else.

[@LaGueraGTO]

I am also an American woman (about your age) living in Mexico, although my circumstances are quite different as I am married to a Mexican man. Mexico is an extremely patriarchal culture, and as much as I love it here, it is very difficult to live here as a single women without the support of having a Mexican family. Even though it wouldn’t be impossible to stay, sometimes its prudent not to select the MOST challenging path in life. There is a whole wide world out there and I am big believer that one of the things that makes Mexico so special is the high value the culture places on family. So, in my opinion, one of the best thing you can do is learn from this beloved Mexican culture and go back to your family. Unfortunately, some people don’t learn the true value of family until it’s too late. Bless ❤

I agree Mexico is a very unsafe place to live for a single woman, people treat you differently if you are not married or have a man by your side, father, brother, etc I have experienced robbery, stocking, abuse from land lords, and the list goes on. If you have a family stay with them, some of us don´t have that privilege. God bless

[@977400Dana]

Maddie, moving back to Phoenix is not a failure! It is stepping back for a reset. Eliminating a number of the issues you’ve coping with for a while in Mexico will clear your mind, and give you space and time to identify what your next phase may be. No need to rush. It will become clear. XOXO

[@stephaniesqq]

You should be so proud of yourself. You've accomplished more in your 30 years of life than I have in my 52. Your parents raised a smart, brave, beautiful woman. I wish nothing but the best for you.

Hi Maddie! I have been a subscriber for years and it’s not about Mexico, it’s about following your journey. I love your vulnerability, your laughter and your authenticity. Please keep sharing- your life in Phoenix, culture shock, finding your way…whatever you’re doing will be interesting ❤ you are such a wonderful daughter to return to your family at this time

[@DrCrystalHarris]

There is nothing like home and proximity to family to bring clarity - especially emotional clarity. So proud of you for making this decision to support yourself. You have a loyal following here, and it's totally normal for the channel to evolve as you personally evolve. I loved the DNA test results. As a single woman who travels, I think just continuing to talk about travel and travel planning and the journal to becoming bilingual. I am probably your mother's age, and I became a solo traveler (including to Mexico in 2022) because of the women of all ages I see doing it. Keep the faith. Much love and blessings!

[@fathersweek]

People follow your channel because they care about you, not where you’re living. It’s your authenticity that we love. Seeing you overcome these struggles gives us all hope and the information and tips you share helps us. I’m sooo happy you’re returning to Arizona (for now) and can’t wait to see how this all unfolds. I like seeing videos on tips and tricks on any topic. Whether you’re shopping for plants, or comparing low end taco stands with high end restaurants. I would love to learn more about your life in Arizona and your travels around the world. Love your channel.

[@missybelmont9830]

Yes!!!! Maddie, You're the reason we watch not Mexico necessarily. ❤

Hi, Maddie. I found your channel a while back, and I've really come to love your content. I recently went through my own family medical scare, so I understand how stressful and terrifying it can be.

You've truly made #TravelTube a better place.

Maddie, making this decision takes a lot of guts and it completely makes sense why you chose this path for now. I think it holds a lot of possibilities for you. You can take us on adventures all over the place instead of being themed to Mexico. There are amazing places in the southwest you can take us, and we can see you discover new countries, as well as continuing to explore Mexico. I'm excited about what journey we might all take with you. You got this!

[@micheleg3040]

New chapters are wonderful! Nothing wrong with a good reset. Mexico isn’t going anywhere and you can always go back to live or visit. And this might be a good opportunity to have a home base in the US and visit some other countries for a while while getting family time in between trips.

Maddie - everything you touch has been gold for a long time. Pun intended. Anyone over 50 knows there are many stages and chapters in life. Embrace each one. I’d love videos on your daily life (a video once a week?) on things like counter culture shock, finding a job or whatever you do next. And I’d love trips centered around the 4 corners area and the Navajo and others. Really I tune in because your content is interesting, authentic and unique to you. Best of luck 🎉

I love what you said anyone over 50 knows the stages and chapters in life. My wife and I were just talking about this recently.

Aww Maddie, 💕I’m so happy you’re going back to Phoenix to be with your family. I also tried to live in Mexico, and went through hardship. I fell in a depression, because I felt alienated and isolated. In the end, I went back home to be with my loved ones. I continued to travel to Mexico, but my heart belong at home in my own country..

You are truly one of the most creative, interesting, thoughtful, brave, curious, and unassuming person that I've never met. The only suggestion that I have is to stay true yourself and tell your story, but I feel this characteristic within you is innate. I think I speak for your audience collectively that we can't wait to see what you do next. We are in awe of everything that you've accomplished, In short, you're a fucking badass. Lastly, speaking as a first generation American with Mexican parents, THANK YOU for shining a light on the country that is Mexico and sharing it's beauty on your channel. You have shown the English-speaking part of the internet that while Mexicans may look, eat, and live differently, that you don't have to scared of the unknown. One of my favorite old-school episodes was when you were in Taxco - my mom grew up in a puebilito right next to it! I loved how you went to eat pozole in someone's restaurant that was really their home. I thought, that was the coolest thing - shining a light in this remote area that has probably never gotten that kind of exposure before. Thank you for subliminally inspiring us to visit Mexico and the rest of the world around us. Best of luck to you and I hope you enjoy spending more time with your family. Here's hoping Maddie's Dad has a successful surgery. It's not goodbye, it's see you later. Take care Maddie.

You inspired me to get my Mexican Residency, which I successfully did using the immigration advisor you and your ex recommended (Mario). I think your fans will stay with you no matter what. When things calm down for you, if you ever have an inkling to check out other places to live, I'd recommend you consider Europe. Perhaps Portugal, Spain or similar. The food quality in Europe far surpasses what the US has to offer, and I physically have never felt better. No rush, spend quality time with your family and do what you need to take care of yourself.

Hola Maddie. To answer your question about your content and this channel, honestly, I think people follow you for YOU, your opinions and your adventures wherever you may be.

I was so afraid you’d say you would close up shop 😮 but I’m glad to hear you’re just moving onto the next chapter in your series of adventures. Certainly not something I would ever consider a failure. I think you’ve done quite alright for yourself (despite and perhaps because of all the adversity) - at least it seems that way through the perspective you give us on this channel. Here’s to wishing you well as you explore the next chapters in your life 🎉

[@peterwieser4631]

As you have acknowledged, you don't post too often these days. Your initial channel ( TTs) was locale based and was excellent content and I used to dream about the sites shown to see in person. Your channel now is more introspective but certainly no less compelling. Thank you for sharing as much as you are comfortable disclosing . Keep letting your inner voice guide you!

[@beautyandthesavage]

haven't watched t3 seconds of the video and I have an urge to tell you that you are looking super healthy, super radiant and just stunning!! Girl is glowing!! 🎉

[@lalilandadventures]

My husband & I have watched both channels for years! You are making the best choice for you! I think most of your Subscribers would be excited to see you film anywhere. I feel like I've grown to know you in a way 😊 Sending prayers & best wishes to your dad on his surgery. ❤

[@sherij7330]

Hi Maddie! How did you feel about your results? Never a failure, it's life:) You do what is right for you and we'll enjoy the ride! Best of luck to your Daddio when the time comes for surgery:)

[@Xiomara222]

I gotta say you look relieved and at peace with your decision. Somehow I think it’s the best thing to do in my opinion. Although you love Mexico your roots and your loved ones are here in the states. You could start exploring different travel destinations in the US. There’s so much to see here too. Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, Alaska for example. Take a small break and take care. You’ve been through alot. Also, you might want to find a travel companion.

[@SimpleZulema]

I'm excited for you! Family is number #1 you won't regret being their for you Dad and the rest of your family

[@amyshaffner]

I wish you the best Maddie! I will continue to watch wherever you go. Your videos are phenomenal and agree with others that we watch to see you!🤗

[@Neoka21]

I hope you can overcome fast of this "mala racha", I too have a bad year... and I totally get you in the need of a big change, please remember we lo ve your content no matter where you are living, If you make videos about Arizona, Germany, Japan or any other part of the world, we gonna be watching and supporting you. Kudos!

[@teresabarberot2506]

You are a strong lady! Glad you are getting through everything and getting better. Prayers for your Dad’s surgery and a fast recovery. Interesting about your DNA. I am thinking of doing this now too! Take care. 🤗

[@sarajohnson6550]

Everyone needs a reset sometimes. I subscribed because I love YOU and your content. Wherever you decide to live will not matter because it’s still YOU I love! I’m so excited for you Maddie on this new journey you are about to embark! Well wishes my friend! 🫶

[@brendalogan6281]

Maddie...I'm 74 and have been watch your channel and your previous channel. I have always admired your courage. I agree with those who said people are on your channel because of you not because of where you are. You could do a KZbin channel in Phoenix, Philadelphia, Mexico, Vegas. Or where ever you want to be. Don't let the things that come at you in life derail you from being happy and moving forward. Life is never smooth all the way. The journey has bumpy roads that you will travel. Maneuver over them the best way you can and just move forward. Know that you have a lot of followers who cheer you on and understand that life can be hard at times. Some people on youtube want to make it seem like there's never a problem. We all know that's not true. Keep doing what you're doing. I am a fan!

[@zeekesler2940]

Makes sense Maddie. When shit is going down it's nice to have a place to live to be close to the people closest to you especially with your dad's surgery. Not a fail at all. Things, life, people evolve and change. looking forward to whats next

[@gigilopez7626]

Over the past two years I have come to realize that you are the reason I started watching tangerine travels. You are pretty much a modern self made star of your own show and to that I say thank you. Why thank you? In some of my spare time or toughest of times I find your content to be a sense of comfor. Your aura really shines bright like a diamond. I look foward to seeing where life takes you. Maybe I can learn cool things about my neighbor state Arizona. (I am a Cali girl) I wish your father a speedy recovery after his heart surgery . Wishing you the best as well.

[@MarketManiaCA]

You are amazing 🎉 And you are very brade for being so honest/vulnerable on such a public stage.

[@swimmer5886]

I'd love to see more Vegas content. That's how I first came across TT. I wish you the very best in your new chapter 💞

[@EricJGaming]

Sorry to hear you had endometriosis, i have a friend who got surgery about this and now she can have kids. I wish you all the best for the rest of your channel

[@reginahinkle7507]

The endometriosis and cause all sorts of problems. Talk to your Dr about it before you go home. Good luck.

[@naomisteinberg2794]

6 years is a long time! Sounds like you've made the right choice. I'd love to see content more local to the Phoenix area....I'm sure there are some magnificent places to visit in Arizona.

[@annastayziaa]

You will get through this and we’re here with you❤

[@karenlewis5937]

I am so proud of you! You are right, a change does not = failure. You have been magnificently successful in your life and will continue to be. How exciting with this next stage coming up. I look forward to your next steps ❤

[@modestohuirache122]

Trust your instincts Maddie sometimes making mistakes is part of learning your on the right path don't let the past define you

[@PaulisimaSpringSpanish]

Hello, Maddie. I hope that upon receiving this note, you are doing well. I think it is a great idea to go back home and spend some time with your family. Wishing you the best and hope to see more videos from you. All the best.

[@eighthappyfish]

Good luck. You are so very talented and I started watching regularly when you started your own channel. Was not a fan before. Not sure what content I’d like to see. I’ll keep an eye out.
