SHOCKING EVENTS in MEXICO CITY!! (Día de Muertos 2022)

Mexico's "Day of the Dead" is a vibrant celebration of life with some INSANE festivities all across the city! Mexico City knocked me off my feet with its parade, ofrendas, costumes, food, and more!

I've been celebrating Dia de Muertos in Mexico for years now. It's by far my favorite holiday in Mexico. This year, I traveled to CDMX (Mexico City) and it was SO MUCH FUN!! During these 5 days I experienced:
- Dia de Muertos desfile (the Day of the Dead parade)
- Elaborate ofrendas, aka altars to remember loved ones who have passed
- Extremely delicious food
- Xochimilco and seeing the famous Prehispanic axolote / axolotl
- Getting my face painted like a catrina
- Meeting new friends
- People watching on Avenida Reforma
- Pets dressed up in costume
- Going to Plaza Garibaldi to see mariachis
- Seeing lots of people dressed up in elaborate costumes
- All the festivities in the zocalo of Mexico City
- The Victoria Cempasúchil experience (marigolds!!)
- Art at Jardin del Arte Sullivan
- Mexican street food
Featuring my friends ‪@SpanishWithNate.‬ ‪@AndyGMenBerlín‬

This was so enjoyable, fabulous celebration, so sorry it ended on a bad note, that so sucks and am very glad you both are safe. Thanks for taking the time to make this vlog for us subs, you look like you had such a good time! Nate seems like a fun person to hang with!

I love Dia de Muertos because you did a great job of showing it. Great camera work

I loved your face makeup and head decoration. Good choice! I’ve said it before, You look the happiest I’ve seen you ever and, also, beautiful. BTW what conference were you attending? PS I think smaller cities are generally safer for women. It’s important to be accompanied, especially at night, in big cities. Be careful chica! 💕💕💕

Reviewing this video, Maddie. Not wild about slime-y anything, or creepy looking dolls, yikes! But, I remain impressed with your ability to speak Spanish, in a Mexican dialect. Well-done! Really. Oh, and your hair band is lovely, as well, Maddie.

I had such a fun time exploring CDMX with you Maddie! Best honorary sister ever 🙌

Well, Maddi. Let me tell you. When I first saw the KZbin length, I was hesitant to watch. I am sooooo glad I watched. Seeing events and food through your eyes and lens is so fun and educational. Thank you for sharing your time and talent throughout the Día de Muertos.

[@zariballard]

Why were u hesitant? 34 minutes is way past your attention? Even then, why would you even consider not watching it just because of the length when you have the capability of turning it off if? Weird.

Maddie, I’m really sorry you had to see the ugly side of Mexicans by getting attacked. I’m a Mexican and really appreciate that you are showing the world the good things about this country. Please stay positive, and stay safe!

I'm Mexican, I've lived in Mexico my entire life and I have never been to those places to celebrate día de muertos, so even for Mexicans your videos are a way to know our country a little bit more, and to enjoy experiences that we are not able to enjoy.

Margaret Sullavan was a Irish/American film star from the 1930s 1940s and beyond. She besides having a singular beauty quality, was known for her unique personality and thus was a huge focus of public and fan attention. Her most driving appeal was her beauty. The movie “The Shop Around The Corner” is a good source to see two things, 1, her total appeal and singular personality, and 2, the fact that Ms Maddie not only shares a remarkable resemblance in beauty with her, but the personality uniqueness is uncanny. Maddy you are special don’t let life’s trials ever drag you down from a special place you hold by the very nature of who you are.

[@anitahamlin2411]

A bunch of cute dog content, Tianguis, and a good-looking man that speaks fluent Spanish. Score for Maddie. How convenient for such a wonderful adventure. You are quite in your element. I am so glad to see you are having fun and checking off the list of things you want to do. I am glad you got away safely. It could happen in any big city. There are so many in cities that you are bound to run across a disturbed individual from time to time especially at big celebrations. I have had a few things happen like that in the states. Being aware of those around you is always a good thing. I'd say you are pretty worldly, so I have no doubt you have great tips to stay safe.

[@rubylace9963]

I'm so sorry that happened to you Maddie! That's is so scary and you don't deserve that at all. When people ask uncomfortable questions I always ask "why do you want to know?". Also when I did visit alone and people asked if I came to Mexico by myself I lied and said i'm visiting with family. I slowly started to tell friends after about a month of knowing them and every single friend understood why I lied and didn't take it personal at all. The face paint that you wore was beautiful and your Spanish is soooo good. You inspire me to continue to learn and practice.

[@MaddieGold]

Thanks so much for the compliments and sentiments Ruby. Absolutely excellent advice…would you be bothered if I potentially include that in my upcoming video about staying safe while traveling? Also it makes me happy to hear I’m inspiring you to continue learning/practicing Spanish 😊 Si se puede!! Jeje

[@fernandolr217]

Thanks for the content! I'm actually a Mexico City native (and still live in MC) and yet, I get to experience these events through these types of videos because a lot of us end up just trying to avoid the crazy crowds and the traffic, so I do appreciate your work 😁 Also, the other content creators featured here seem pretty cool and chill, so I'm definitely going to check their channels out! Sorry to hear that your day ended in a bad way and I know you don't need me or anyone else to tell you this, but I'm way more proud of citizens such as yourself than the POS that attacked you. Keep up the good work!

@@Realalma so a couple of foreigners have died from accidental carbon monoxide poisioning, and an american girl was attacked by another american in cabo and that is eveidence that somehow it is too dangerous there to be american in Mexico? lol

[@Realalma]

I do not believe the Airbnb incidents were accidental. You clearly do not know México. I do. You Americans can be so naive just like I was when I started traveling in Mexico alome at age 18. There has been a major push back towards Americans as of late and although I’ve survived it, survived driving alone through level 4 areas I would not recommend it. Do your research, learn Spanish and chances are you will be ok.

This was a great video. You look so pretty with your face painting and headpiece! I love that you explained the significance of it, and showed how amazing the celebration is there, but also didn’t sugarcoat the crowds, or that you were attacked and also felt uncomfortable in that restaurant. It sets up realistic expectations. I like the idea of the video with security tips that you’ve found effective.

[@MaddieGold]

Thanks Darci! I did my best to add as much Dia de Muertos info as possible mixed into the craziness of the events. It's unfortunate that those things happened at the end, but it does give me the opportunity to warn others about the possibilities while traveling.

Thank you so much for the great Dia de Muertos tour!

I am sorry to hear you were attacked, that is so scary to imagine. I am glad you are okay and thank you for the video. Also on behalf of the axolotl - Axolotls are strictly aquatic animals that spend their entire lives in water. They can, however, spend a short time outside of water because they can breathe air, but won't survive without water for long. Please if anyone has these as pets please keep them in the water. Also they should not be handled unless absolutely necessary as they are mainly cartilage and very susceptible to injury.

[@lorrielauer9231]

I am a also a single woman living alone with my cat in Rosarito Beach, BC, Mexico. Yes, I have to pay attention at all times. One time a lady bumped into me at a super market which wasn’t crowded (during covid). I turned toward her, and later discover my coin purse in my bag had be stolen. I was holding onto my phone. It was a set up. When I got to my car, the doors were unlocked. Then the security guard walked up and handed me my key. I was so flustered, I just drove away without reporting it. I also got my bag stolen in Costa Rica with it hanging on the arm of my chair. It had my passport in it and mysteriously I got my passport back. I carry a purse around my neck and hold onto it. They will not like the idea of you filming them. Even if a cop pulls you over, you take his picture and badge number just to be safe. I try not to give out too much information where I live. I pray for protection and ask angels to protect me. I ask for discernment, to see the underlying motives of a person. I have lived in Mexico for 3 years and have my permanent residency and soon dual citizenship. I’ve been lied to by men: other girlfriends and wives. I now play hard to get. If they have ulterior motives, they will get tired. You speak a lot more spanish than I do which is good. If that ask who I live with. I can respond, Oh, you want to meet my papa? Making them think he lives with me. I’m older so I’m going to start saying my Herman’s, my brother who is also deceased but he is here in spirit. I’m just not going to tell them that. I can say that and be referring to Day of the Dead, All Soul’s Day. My Dad and brother are still here with me. Don’t let them know where you live. Meet in public with other people around just like if you were on a dating site in U.S. My brother was going to come with me to meet you for dinner, but he had another commitment. I’m sure he’s doing something on the other side. I don’t know what but something. If I am feeling afraid, I get out of there. Like attracts like. Also, don’t drink more than one alcoholic drink if you are alone with a man. And, even with your girlfriends. I’ am more scared for you in the States than Mexico. In the States, I had more bad things happen. A shooting right outside my apartment the first week I lived in San Diego. I was drugged and dater raped at 17. On a trip to Hawaii, I was almost raped and killed. I was crying, saying no, I’ve got to get back to my friends. I jumped out of the car when he started gritting his teeth as he said, “i said Yes”. I jumped over a retaining wall on the mountain. My hands were slipping. I was going to die. I didn’t have the strength to pull my self up, I scream, “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, help me. Right as my fingers slipped the hand of God gave me a boost up”. I ran to the mountain side and hid in the bushes. We must beware of any one on drugs, anywhere in the world because they are not in their right mind. Pay.attention and if you get an intuition, a funny feeling, get out of there fast. What happened to you easily can happen in San Diego, LA or Orange County. If anyone mentions drugs, I excuse myself and say I have a meeting to get to and leave. Stay away from any prostitution and drugs. Just the other day, I needed a place to stay because I wasn’t able to move into my new apartment. The was a hotel that had a sign 350 pesos, approx 19 US dollars. A good deal. I went to check it out. I wanted to see if the room was clean. I. Needed to be there 3 or 4 days. I asked if I could see the room. Very nice. Then I came down to the office and I was informed it was that price for 4 hours. And, if I wanted to stay all night it would be $50. I had a great laugh, and no I don’t want to hear people having sex keeping me awake all night. I prayed that they would let me into my new place early. Then I remembered a friend who rents out a room and has a roommate and spare bedroom. I called.her and she said she’d charge me $19 a night. I was meant to meet her roommate. She was moving also. We’ve hit it off and have gone out to dinner numerous times together, both going through hassles with moving. No matter what I ask for in my prayers, I ask for God’s will not my will.

[@CumbiaDancer5678]

Loved the "Maddie Movie"! I'm so sorry you experienced the backlash from the crazy guy at the end of it all. FYI, the "rapid fire 20 questions" is a very common occurance for me. I had it in India, Colombia, Philippines & I got it a LOT in Mexico. It can be really intimidating when they start with all the personal questions. A taxi driver in Costa Rica "was just curious" and asked me when was the last time I had s*x!!! Lol! I've questioned many people about why their fellow countrymen & women are so nosey about my business. Many say that it is very shocking for people in other countries to see single, financially independent women out there living a life. Over the years I have developed many strategies that deter their questions. Starting 1st & asking them about their lives in their coutry usually throws them for a loop. Telling them that "I am travelling with hungover friends who are still back at the hotel sleeping" works well. Or, pretending to text my friend, who is "waiting" for me at the destination also works. So far, so good. Take precautions. Be prepared with good answers & sometimes, just ask them why they are asking so many private questions. Sometimes, I even tell them that I don't answer personal questions about myself. You can play the, "I'm not in the mood for this s*it today" card at anytime. You don't always have to be sweet & accomodating. Sometimes, that is a woman's downfall. Anyway, looking forward to the upcoming videos. Keep moving. It keeps the vultures from having a place to land. Lol!

[@cindyk3076]

Wow, four days! Looks like a ton of fun, but so many people. Love your makeup, it is excellent! The two fortunes you got were spot on.

Very good presentation and video, as usual. You have mastered the pace, even though a bit long it doesn't feel like it. There's of course a lot of interesting things to see and do in Mexico city, I hope you're enjoying your time there and that rains don't disturb life much there (I lived for a while in Guadalajara and couldn't stand how everything seemed to come to a standstill in summer because of that). Here's in the western coast is very humid but no rains yet.

[@debra1507]

Maddie you are a delight! Thank you for your videos and being yourself 😊

[@MaddieGold]

Aww thanks Debra! 💛

[@emilyserafamanschot800]

This is one of the best videos you've ever done, Maddie. How exciting to be in Mexico at this time. Thank you!

[@involvex]

Love, love, love your videos! You are a Mexicana through and through! Don't listen to one wacko. My Mexican family sends lots of love from California. Wish we were there with you. Enjoy and please keep us posted on your beautiful journey!

[@penelope8356]

[@mariselaramirez1091]

Beautiful from outside and inside ❤

[@NormandeSprow]

Absolutely love how you switch back-and-forth from English to Spanish (a montón de gente). Just love it!

24:53 Hedgies!!! ❤️❤️ I adopted mine recently from my niece and he is so stinking precious. LOVE, LOVED seeing your adventures Maddie! Great job experiencing the most! THANK YOU FOR SHARING. Watching you makes me braver! Stay safe smarty pants!! 💀❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍

[@nikkibaldwin384]

You makeup and corona are gorgeous! I think next year I must see Diá de Muertos in CDMX! Thank you for showing us the good and not so good aspects - the realities of being an immigrant are a whole spectrum of experiences, isn’t it?

[@heidibreckenridge9131]

I've been following you since tangerine old videos and lived your break up. Your content is much more fun now. My partner has made me take part of putting up our own "Ofrenda" it still feels strange doing so after a few years.

[@malakcookie33]

This looked like so much fun❤. I’m sorry about what happened to you the last day, that’s so unfortunate. Continue to be safe and I think that edomex is Estado de México.

Hi Maddie! My family and I were also in Mexico City for the festivities and had so much fun! ❤ I’m glad you and your friend are safe. I am looking forward to your video on how you keep safe when traveling. My sister, mom, and I found ourselves being cautious and hyper vigilant after a few incidents. Our taxi driver was punched in the face as we were driving to Xochimilco. Once we arrived the staff there increased the price on us. And I think on the last night of us being in Mexico City, there was a man that made us feel uncomfy in the oxxo. I enjoyed my time there but I’m happy to be home. ❤

Wow Maddie I was having such a wonderful time watching this video and everything you showed was so interesting and so many cool and funny moments, I was extremely disappointed to how this ended. Fortunately you were able to make it home safely. Don't you get discouraged or for one second take in on what that lunatic said, we love your videos and what you do, you just keep on shinning!

[@robertstowe2003]

What a great video, Maddie! Wish I were there to see it all first hand. (Always, PLEASE be careful!)

[@dv3507]

I absolutely loved your video! I enjoyed seeing the Dia de los Muertos festivities, all the colors, your face painting, etc! It was awesome seeing Nate, too! Stay safe, ignore the trolls, and keep having fun!

[@Park3r3398]

Thank you Maddie 🎉😊 I wanted to see someone post day of the dead!!!

[@Arroyoruiz]

The same thing has happened to me for speaking Spanish on a cellphone call. But here in the 🇺🇸. It happens in all countries of the world.

[@nicorayo195]

Wow, I didn't realize that Día de Muertos or 'Day of the Dead' was celebrated for four days (I thought it was three). Great video Maddie, I loved the lady who was informing about the plight of the Axolote, she really seemed to know her stuff. The celebrations were epic. I wanted to ask if you put your Day of the Dead make-up on yourself, but I found out in the video.

[@PeretRed]

the local authorities are extending the day of the dead celebration to include a weekend and throw in some parades.

[@frankb1]

I love Nate's channel, too!!!

[@jenurias7303]

Love your videos, thank you for sharing your experiences. Love Mexico, the culture, the food, it's people. Beautiful!

[@patricialee76]

One of the most enjoyable videos except for the after-dark part at the end. I loved the celebration and her love of this precious culture. There is always a bad apple in the bunch. Maddie is Gold!

[@smeag9280]

So much fun! (Minus the attack, of course) You are beautiful and I’m glad you had a blast with friends 💛

[@loopz3155]

I’m really enjoying this video. My favorite day of all year, día de Lis muertos

[@APisMe]

looks like you had an amazing time! I live in Toronto and occasionally have run ins with crazy people. I've had taxi drivers taking me home asking me weird things. So I never got out at my house, always a little a way and went on and on about the nice dinner my husband was making me (I am not married) because I was working late and my large dogs that I missed so much (I have rabbits). I think there are creeps all over the world and you just have to be smart about how you manage it

[@leticiapashos4566]

Me encanta tu canal . Te expresas súper bien, eres muy agradable y divertida. Y muy valiente en ir a todos esos lugares . De verdad está mejor que un documental de tv ✌️👌👍🏻

[@ritapeek5293]

My favorite video yet 😍

[@deborahpennington6724]

Wonderful video, Maddie!
