I'm Mexican, born and raised. And seeing my country the way you portray it, made me cry. It's beautiful 💕 There are many terrible news about my home, but honestly, we are so much more than that. We are more good than bad, and we fight every day to demonstrate who we truly are. Thank you, Isabel, it was a memorable video.

[@majortom8047]

I've been living in Mexico for over five years and coming here for many decades before making the move. To me it is as close to paradise as I ever expect to find. While it has beautiful sights, it is the people who make it for me. They are easy to live with I've found.

[@Bendigo1]

That happens to a lot of people and places because the media tends to focus more on the bad than the good. So that is usually what most people see, then think that everything is that way.

[@lemmings6516]

México will always have a special place in my heart. I came there when I had a lot of troubles in my home country, where everyone is very distant and cold. the people of this beautiful place taught me how to trust in others, how to cry and show emotions, how to live life playfully and how to have compassion towards myself and others. Even if politics and powerful people try to corrupt this country, they will never succeed in destroying the innate beauty of the people and their true connection to their land. Their spirit is strong and healing, no one can take it away.

Hey Isabel and Logan. You're doing exactly what I've done most of my life. Just winging it. The best way to go. At 17, my bestie and I saved money, bought backpacks, pup tent, cooking gear, got passports, Youth Hostel passes, student fare tickets on Pan Am, and took off for a summer in Europe. I ended up staying there. My bestie died in our 30s, so it means even more that we did this. "The days are long, but the years are short." Keep doing these adventures, because once children come, the nature of adventures must change, because life does.

Hi Isabelle, Mexican here, thanks for portraying Mexico outside of the chaotic news ♡ I've lived in Oaxaca for most of my life, slow life and beautiful beaches.

Recently mazatlan and culican were shut down because the mafia had taken over both airports, were burning buses/cars in the streets, and killing people, all in retaliation of the son of el chapo being taken into custody.

[@rhackenb1]

Isabel, I'm impressed that you were able to spend a week in a small village in the mountains around Oaxaca without being able to speak Spanish. Is it possible that the people there spoke Zapotec, a native Indian language. In 1974 we were a family of five (three small kids) and driving back to the US from Nicaragua where we had lived 2 years. Oaxaca is known for it's hand woven blankets stained with natural dyes. We wanted to buy two of these blankets in a village outside of Oaxaca. The old man who made and sold these blankets only spoke Zapotec and not Spanish. We ended up with a one hour bargaining session in Spanish with the man's young granddaughter who interpreted between Spanish and Zapotec. BTW, it's normal in Mexico for a bargaining (regateo) session to go on for a long time. We had been used to doing it in Nicaragua where it lasted only a minute.

You get the winter blues like I do. It’s a real thing and everything you said about your mood totally changed in the warmth and sun I 100% understand that the natural vitamin D is a cure for the winter blues. I have wondered if you had the winter blues last winter when you struggled with your emotions really bad, probably the worst since watching your channel many yrs ago. Now you know so maybe you can start to travel during the worst part of the winter. My winter blues start in late September. It wasn’t until I went to the doctor one year feeling depressed , icky, and didn’t give a care about anything . The next year I went to the doctor feeling the same way. The doctor looks at me and asked me if I knew that I come to the doctors the exact same time last year down to the day. I of course had no clue. That’s when he told me that I have the winter blues. ( which I already knew he just confirmed what I already known my whole life) . The winters just suck. Cold, everything dead, snow, and did I mention the cold?? It’s only pretty 1 day a year Christmas the rest of the time it can be sunny and warm. We live on a farm so moving to a warm climate wouldn’t work because the animals like to eat all year around.. silly right?! My hubby sent me to Florida for a few years but I haven’t gone the last 2 yrs for one reason or another. We are winter blues sisters. lol Not the ideal group to be a part but it’s a necessary group to have. Supporter do support and you need people who understand what your going through . The ones who understand are ones who live it as well. I want to say my family understood but they didn’t . They tried but it’s hard to explain to others exactly what your feeling . words are hard sometimes.

Hi Isabel! It's nice to see that you are in Mexico. As a Mexican I've always wanted to go to Oaxaca, I've never had the chance so far, so thanks for showing us a bit of it. I'd like to add that things do happen in this country (of which we are not proud, of course): kidnappings, drug cartels, insecurity in general. I would recommend that you ask local people for safe places to go; unfortunately not every place is safe. As Mexicans we have learned not to trust just anyone. Generally people are very friendly and will be able to guide you. Be calm but be alert. I try not to sound alarmist but I would be lying if I told you that nothing happens here. I hope the best for your trip, stay safe and if you need any recommendations from local people you can ask through an IG story or something, we would love to help :) Greetings from Guadalajara, Mx

It begins with a maturity but never looses its positivity nor the possibility in the power to let go when something doesn't go the way you expected, and, it owns every second of itself. I even paused the video at the end the same way one might put a book down as the last pages ticked away so it would last longer.

Woow estuviste en Oaxaca! Me hubiera encantado conocerte 🤩 , me encantan tus videos 🥰

[@kgo3382]

So humbling, refreshing, and therapeutic. I also learned there's only so much control we have of our lives, to a point we need to just go with the 'ebb & flow', that way not forced, rather organic, less stress.

This vacation was so you Isabel. I love how excited and appreciative you are for the simple things.❤

[@loveoliveyou2477]

I lived in Mexico for a year and half, it's a beautiful place. Villages are definitely safer than the cities, unless you go to a tourist area. There are more safeguards in place in tourist areas. But I am so glad you guys are having fun!

0:11 So natural, beautiful, nice, peaceful.. She is living embodiment of hippiedom. She looked incredibly beautiful in the thumbnail for this vid

[@brianmurphy-ov5jb]

she's becoming so ew, doing such shady shit for likes. like her and Logan pretending they bought a van to make live in ready so they can do the van life.they bought the van already remodeled, took some parts out and pretended they built it and REMODELED IT.. the old owner of the van called them out on it. and she and Logan, raquelle started bullying Jasmin cherry because she called them out on it and then Isabel sent all her troll fans to degrade Jasmin. and now she's literally taking all her clothes off for likes and views.

Isabel, i know you’re from the PNW but you absolutely glow when you visit somewhere warm or in the summer on your mountain. It just seems to me that you need to figure out a way to spend more time in warmer, sunnier climates. Maybe that means wintering in Mexico or somewhere like Costa Rica. I know that’s maybe easier said than done but there’s just something that the cold PNW doesn’t seem to give you that makes you shine like it looked like Mexico did. Just an observation that could be way off but thought I’d share. So glad you and Logan got to get away and recharge your soul batteries.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful video! Such a wonderful experience to visit a small authentic Mexican village!!

[@SunshineDawn7]

Stunning, Stunning video ! This was so wonderful to see and see you and Logan enjoying yourselves in a Beautiful village in the middle of nowhere. Thank you for bringing us along 🙏🙏I really enjoyed and appreciated the hand made textiles and everything about this video 🥰🥰 Enjoy every minute while you are young. Life goes by so fast. Take care you two 🤗🤗 Much love and Happy Valentines day❤❤

[@Amanda-jd8xs]

Okay, that library! Oh my god, and probably yours as well, I would have camped there. And I am trying to wrap my head around someone never having eaten paw paw before. (Australian name for papaya). What beautiful textiles ❤ I love handmade fabrics. I normally do not enjoy travel vlogs. But your cinematography is so beautiful and now I want to see Mexico!

[@PS-bs8oe]

Logan❤️, Izobella, always remind ourselves that all over the world there are parents with children, that all if thrm want to be safe and take care of their family. Mejícó es une maravilla, genorisidad y hermosas personas. Travelled the "most dangerous road " of the country...with everybody on the bus snoring along their dreams. I could have robbed all of the travellers. I was so happy when the dri er told me how to walk to my hostel in the midst if the nite and not yo take a taxi , like he did to awell off american family with sleepy kidgos. He recognized the traveller in me and knew I spoke good Spanish . But above all he knew the safety issue in his town was not to worry about and that would find a helping local if lost. ;))) Travelling with a 6kg backpack or bag on local chickenvans, no problem ever. Enjoy your new inspiration, thank you for sharing the love of the musicality of your lifes.

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

Good Sunday morning Isabel. Great video as always. That fresh papaya looks absolutely delicious. Thanks for sharing another look at your wonderful nomadic life living and camping in a traditional Mexican village. 😁😉

[@lynn338]

You are such a beautiful sole finding peace and tranquillity that many of us would not have the guts to do. Teaching one old lady about life. Thank you.

[@vv2016]

Gotta say that I love and enjoy watching your videos so much. There's something in them that resonates so deeply in me and also the way you capture those moments and tell your stories are just so so beautiful. Thank you Isabel for making my dark days better!

[@Banagal]

Deep into Mexico and Costa Rico are so beautiful and peaceful. I've read many of the reviews and it seems to cover the border areas. Winding it looks good on both of you. Take a deep breath and relax.

[@elizabethalderman3495]

1st Another travel series. I love it! At least this time y'all aren't in frigid weather. It looks like fate sent y'all there. It's totally you Isabelle.

[@danaicastillo6472]

Isabel, very glad to see you on your journey. And your view on presenting the local place and its tradition makes the eyes travel🍃 Indeed Mexico is a country of variety, my half home from the side of my mother, she was from Tampico and Veracruz 🌴 Relaxing is also essential part of our daily life if we want to maintain our selves healthy. It's balance. For a while, and then by nature we restore our strength and we keep going. One tip, tamales veganos y mole vegano, if you find it, try it😊🌾 Many blessings Isabel on your path, stay safe, be alert if alone on the journey and merits to all around you🙏🌷 Walking always on well lit lighted places, by day🌻

[@francinelombrozo8542]

More travel series please ;-) love this

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

A very pretty place. It good to just getaway and not fill it with so many things to do. I wish these videos were longer. Better then any content on tv🌻🌻

[@josiesjournals]

This is absolutely beautiful! I haven't been to Mexico before, but I am hoping in the future to drive my old camper van down! Love the intro so much, sending love:)
