Anyone can chime in, but I especially want the input that Hispanic-Americans have, since my parents are originally from México.

What has your experience been with women from Latin-American countries? Are they welcoming, or do they see you with disgust?

I've had a couple of friends who did study abroad programs in México (their parents are from México) and as much as they tried to mingle with the Mexican girls, they were treated with indifference. Instead, the Mexican girls opted to mingle with the white, black and asian participants of the study abroad program. It was as if being Mexican-American lowered your value.

This upcoming year I'm planning a trip. I can go to either Montréal and México City and Guadalajara, or Dublin and London. It would be much cheaper if I visit Canada and México since I live in the US, but I would hate to go to México and be treated with indifference like my friends were.

In general, where would you go?

I'm fluent in Spanish about 6 feet tall (1.83 meters), and I have a black hair, brown eyes and more on the light side. I would say I look Hispanic. For those who are into sports think of Oscar De La Hoya skin tone, or a Javier "Chicharrito" Hernandez skin tone.

OK well, gringo factor (or any foreigner factor for that matter) basically relies on two indicators:

1) How much differently you look than the average local.
2) How exotic your country of origin is.

You have neither of these things. Think about it, you have black hair and dark skin, well so does 90+% of other Mexicanos. You come from the USA, no one gives a shit really, it's right next door and Americans come down all the time.

Contrast that to someone like me, who has long blond hair and pale white skin, you won't be able to pull more than I given comparable gaming skills and all else remaining equal.

But really, it doesn't matter. You can do fine, and other American-Mexican boys on here do fine in Mexico, if you have some game and know how to work Mexicanas. You just won't have any gringo factor. However, you speak fluent Spanish so that makes it even easier for you than your average dumb ass gringo.

I mean, you could also say you are Brazilian or some shit.

While it may be cheaper and more convenient to go to Canada and Mexico, they will always be close by. My advice would be study in London and Dublin regardless of the cost. You can cut costs elsewhere in life but going to the UK during your college years and having the opportunity to visit other parts of Europe relatively easily will be priceless. Regardless of the game opportunities the relationships and connections you build at school in the uk will leave you with potential contacts and friends all over Europe. As a Mexican American it's fairly easy to get around Mexico and to find contacts there so take the uk route. As a college guy you can take some low interest loans, smoke less weed, drink cheaper alcohol, and get a job in a restaurant to help pay for bills/limit expenses but you have your whole life to worry about that. As they say, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush... Take the opportunity to go live in the UK now as you may not have another one like it. Either way you will have fun and I think you'll have more of an "exotic" factor in the UK.

Americas has a point, but I have some Mex buddies from Texas and they pick up tail pretty easy. They have aggressive US Style approaches but with a little Mexican swag. If you are trying to pick a place where you have to use relatively no game then Mex is probably not place for you.

I'm no longer a student. My trips would be strictly for pleasure. The reason I chose Dublin and London is because I have an affinity for Irish and British literature. Going to México is strictly a trip to know where my parents come from while trying to game the local girls. As far as Montréal is concerned, je parle le français un peu et j'aime écouter la langue française. Alors, Montréal est une ville bilingue, si je suis perdú, je peux parler avec les femmes en anglais.

Well I completely misread that one, my bad. If you have the coin and the time for a 2 week trip then I still say go to the UK! If you want to practice your French, go to Montreal! Have fun wherever you go!

Reaction when I saw this thread



Finally someone who makes a thread on specifically American Latinos traveling to other countries. I think its important and vital for Hispanic Americans to go out and travel, many of us don't and just stay within the confines of our own neighborhoods. We're 15% of the U.S. population and should take every advantage possible to travel.

Anyway, my parents are also from Mexico and I have gone to 3 Latin American countries in Mexico, Cuba and Argentina so I'll chime in with my experiences.

I'm in Mexico now and as you may know that in Mexico there are lots of people who have family who live in the U.S., I think they did a study in Mexico where they found that every Mexican has at least one family member who resides in the U.S. so you going to Mexico won't be a big deal. You will be treated with indifference sadly because you will look like the people there, same if you go to other Latin American countries in Central and South America.

I stood out mostly by the way I was dressed and my haircut (I got a fade) and people assumed right away that I was from the U.S. They will find out you aren't a native by the way you talk. Mexican Americans tend to speak Spanglish a lot when trying to speak Spanish. We do know Spanish, but we tend to mess up words a lot and code switch to English which is one factor they notice. When I open a girl up, I always try to speak Spanglish like I would in the U.S. to make sure she knows that I'm not a native. I always start sentences with "So" when I talk to girls. For example:

"So, te mire caminando aqui por la tienda y te me hiciste guapa. Me gusta tu style y vine aqui para conocerte"

Once you start talking Spanglish, they'll know you're from the U.S. Most of the time it just comes naturally for me. Spanglish is a very unique Hispanic American dialect.

There are people in Mexico who can't stand Mexican Americans, mostly because when they go down to Mexico many think they are the shit and above the law just because they're from the U.S. The "Don't touch me, I'm an American citizen" mentality. You can understand for a white gringo acting like that, but a Mexican American? A lot of them like to go down there with their brand new trucks and show off their wealth and many develop an American arrogance as well. I remember I myself was victim of this when I would brag about how awesome the taco trucks in Chicago were and saying how I thought they were better than the tacos in Guadalajara which rubbed the Mexicans the wrong way. They just don't like people who look like them feeling entitled just because they come from the U.S.

Having said all that, I never once got hated on or was given bad looks or looks of disgust. In fact most people were very nice and welcoming and girls loved practicing their English with me. Mexicans are very welcoming and nice people and when they know you're not a native but are a "pocho" (Mexican American), they will go out of their way almost to make you feel welcomed.

Of course you will need game and you wont have the white god factor going for you, but you do know Spanish and could close way easier than the average gringo.


When it came to Argentina it was a different story. I was getting out of my comfort zone and diving into another culture and leaving North America where you see Mexicans everywhere in both the U.S. and of course Mexico. I went to a place where the majority of the people have never seen a Mexican person before in their lives. So many people wanted to talk to me and get to know me. I had no game back then so I didn't really get a notch, but girls were very interested in my background and liked my accent. They thought I was some kind of alien. Like a Latino looking person from the U.S. who knows Spanish and English with a Mexican accent? It was surreal for them. Although there was a lot of indifference when I was walking in the streets of Buenos Aires, but when they found out where I was from, they wanted to get to know me. I really liked my experience in Argentina. Against popular belief in the forum that Argentina is hard, I have a feeling that if a Mexican American or a Puerto Rican American goes to Argentina with some good game he could pull with ease. Something about Argentina tells me the right kind of guy hasn't exploited it well enough yet. Most guys who have been to Argentina on the forum are non-Mexicans or non-Hispanics. No data sheet has been done by a Hispanic American. I think it has potential because lots of girls in Buenos Aires loved my Mexican accent. I put this to the test and whenever they asked me where I was from, I would say Mexico and half the time I would say America. I had better responses from the girls when I said I was from Mexico and many responded with "Wow, what an awesome culture Mexico has" or "Wow, I really want to go to Mexico one day". I want to go again down there and put my game to the test in Buenos Aires.

As far as which places I would go from the list provided, I will still pick Mexico City or Guadalajara. I love Mexico and love Mexican women, that's just me though. It really depends what your interests and look you like.

Suerte!

I understand your problem as a Mexican-American myself who grew up on the border in El Paso and a significant amount of family in Juarez it is a tough choice. I used to live in Miami for a while and took a backpacking trip through Central America where I spent 3 days in every capitol city. If you speak Spanish with one of the common Mexican accents it will help you pick up in Central America as it helped me get my foot in the door a lot as girls would always ask me where I was from. Keep in mind that much of the media they get in Central America is Mexican movies, telenovelas, music, etc. so the accent comes off as a dominant one. I was always surprised at the love-hate relationship they have with Mexico being so dominant. If i was you I would look further south as your money will get you further and your experience might be better.

I don't speak spanglish when I converse in Spanish. I'm very fluent in the language, so I don't have to code switch. However, I do speak with an accent.

I am a Mexican American myself. I'm born and raised in the Bay Area. Both of my parents are from Jalisco. While I have only traveled around the West Coast, the Southwest, and Mexico, I will say that the non-Mexican Latin American girls I meet here in the US get interested in me because of my background and I speak Spanish in a more formal tone rather than the typical Chicano Spanglish accent.

However, I tend to only be interested in the Caribbean mulatta latin girls as your typical Mexican mestiza girl doesn't hit my boner, which is ironic because both of my gfs have been of Mexican ancestry (first one was white American but her grandmother was Mexican-American and my second one was mostly Mex-American but was also mixed with white-American). I'm only 21 so I haven't been able to travel. I do have in my list to hit up the Caribbean, Brasil, Uruguay, and Argentina to crack the Argentine enigma. I have heard stories from Mexican national friends who have been able to land up cute Argentine girls, so I want to give it a shot. Either that or hit up Northern and Central Europe as I have had promising potential of girls from those countries.

The US but that would throw them off so I had to explain my parents were Mexican. They loved the accent but still had to work for it. I had been to Finland 5 months earlier and didn't have to work that hard for it but they don't have a safety net to fall back on. A lot of them get our Mexican accent mixed up with Colombians I've even had Colombians ask me if I was Colombian in Miami, at university and traveling abroad. In Europe I would always get mixed up with Brazilians even after I tell girls my family is Mexican they still tell me how Brazilian I am oh well whatever gets me in there quicker being Colombian or Brazilian.

cool guy, I do the same thing. Whenever a girl tells me if I'm Puerto Rican or something else for instance I just wing it and say "Yes, yes I am". I've gotten so many notches with girls who thought I was Puerto Rican or Brazilian instead of Mexican. Like you said, whatever floats their boat.

Hispanics from usa might be seen as cool..just like asians, otoh a northern euro looking guy will receive much better response solely base on his looks.
