[@hugoberlusconi]

Thanks for sharing Sarah. Is so beautiful and rich The United Kingdom of Guatemala established since 1609 and extends from El Soconusco (today Chiapas) to part of Panama. Guatemala is 12th producer of silver in the world and 20th producer of gold besides having massive reserves of nickel, jade and so many other natural resources. The Malvinas belong to Argentina, The Esequibo belongs to Venezuela and Belice belongs to Guatemala. Guatemala is amazingly beautiful and unique. God bless

[@waltersolorzano7287]

Beautiful Sarah. Beautiful place, great tips.

[@SarahFunky]

Thank you so much!

[@theoakhills]

If it's so beautiful...then tell me why all the illegal immigration into the US?

[@SarahFunky]

@@theoakhills Lack of job opportunities

[@RaulGonzalez-fr4pu]

The immigration question deserves an intelligent answer : human history teach us people have crossed frontiers for many reasons . Illegal immigration in America started when the Europeans invaded the continent and settle and took over the land for free from what is now the tip Chile to the tip of Alaska this is why America is a continent of immigrants . Millions of people from US A have immigrated to other parts of the the world including LatinoAmerica !! But yes a small percentage of people si no oportunities for a better life and immigrate . Blessings and greetings from USA !!!

[@kevinrevolorio4235]

You are so professional doing this videos !! You’re amazing.

You missed Casa Santo Domingo, Tenedor del Cerro, Jade Museum, if you are still in Guatemala, tell them to show you the lunar jade.

[@armandogalvan2822]

Hi Sarah thanks for this video. I was lost on what to do. I'm going to Antigua Friday thank you again. If you read this message and have found something new before then

[@UR-cs7hl]

Hello I’m from xela Guatemala 🇬🇹 love ur video. thank you for the honest review

[@highlanderabroad884]

Awesome video, was in Antigua a few weeks ago. Such an awesome building, I ended up shooting about 5 hours of video and in post I wanted to use it all the scenery was so gorgeous. New subscriber here, keep up the good work. 🙂

[@JoeTolley]

Def taking notes. We'll be there next week. We've been going to Guatemala (Casa Bernabe) for the last few spring breaks and always take a day to go into Antigua. Usually lunch and the then the market... Maybe we'll see you there :)

[@gchsbus]

This place more fun when you drive down from the states. They see your American plated car and the Americans, Canadians, and Europeans are drawn to you and always start the conversation with asking if I drove there. The answer is always, "Yes! Only 30 hours from Brownsville TX" LOL!

[@SarahFunky]

That is a fun way to look at it!

[@carlosquiroa6492]

Amazing indeed!

[@SarahFunky]

I'm glad you loved it Carlos Quiroa. I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! Thank you! :)

Thank you so much Drew! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mariolopez9120]

Need to go have breakfast at El Tenedor Del Cerro...spectacular view of volcanoes and so much to do in the surrounding area you will have a blast (sort of a hidden gem, as not many tourists know about) my favorite spot in Antigua

[@SarahFunky]

Wow! I need to add that to my list for next time!

[@ladytempe3943]

Beatiful video.

[@kidsperspectivefamilytrave9184]

Anyone have an idea of what to do for a girls 10th birthday in Antigua? We want to do something special for Raya because birthdays away from home are a bit difficult for the kids. The chocolate making is a great idea. We will arrive in Antigua the day before her birthday so we must get something figured out in advance of arriving.

[@SarahFunky]

The chocolate museum would be perfect!

[@SarahFunky]

Yes for sure!

[@latinaalma1947]

THE very IDEA of EVER having a "last night in Antigua" rips at my very SOUL. I came in 1999 just two years after the '97 Peace Accords brought peace. It was a beautiful sleepy RESIDENTIAL town full of mostly old families of elders...their younger early middle ages and 20 to 40 yr old family members workind and some living in the capital. We.lived in the house next to the virgin mural on the side of La Merced with an upper class Guatemalan family renting their old living room as our bedroom...their onñy renters. We fell in l9ve eith Antigua and them and their neighbors. We were.invited to cafecito, birthday parties, rosaries for the dead, Christmas posadas, you name it all over the neighbohood and got to really know those familes. Sadly the family has rented that house out now to commecial shops as has nearly every other fsmily in the neighborhood. No longer is the socail life in town cohesive as it once was with locals so glad I got to experiemce all that my first years here. It was like falling into an Isabal Allende novel about Guatemala's history imstead of Chile's. Lovely photography...

[@brayancastellanos9766]

Hi. Sarah. I just subscribed to your chanel. Love your charisma. Thank you for such good 👍 job. I haven't visited my country for a while. But watching your videos. I think, I'm going this summer. Thank you.

Thank you so much Ernesto!

[@marvinestupe8627]

Thanks for letting people in the world know about Antigua Guatemala.. more information and people should explore central america, a missed spot everyone always does the popular regions but don't actually explore the unknown places

She meant her husband who is Guatemalan.

[@ricokaljouw1905]

Sorry but after 7 seconds I stopped the video. Is it so difficult to say Guatemala 🇬🇹

[@OnTheSpurOfTheMoment]

Welton's Restaurant is a very costly restaurant. For a cheap country like Guatemala, they are ripping you off. I wouldn't go there no matter what.

I stopped on the first 20 seconds after hearing you pronounce Guatemala

I understand its all about making money with videos, but I started watching you because of the NYC videos - can you get back to that please?

I'm doing the travel videos because I want to expand my channel into travel, not to make money off of them. However, the NYC videos will be back starting April 😊

[@MikeFarnhamGalaxysEdgeGroup]

@@SarahFunky if its not about the money then make your videos less than 10 minutes each and remove advertising you do in them.

@@MikeFarnhamGalaxysEdgeGroup There is no advertising in this video and 95% of my videos are less than 10 minutes.
