00:00
Traveling with kids can be tough,
00:01
especially when going to another country.
00:04
Ruth Tejera and Johnny Sanders decided to take marriage into their own
00:07
hands and began to train the little Alexander for his trip to
00:10
Mexico. Thank you guys for coming.
00:12
Here we go. When party specifically start training your sons for
00:18
Mexico. Oh, because we have a lot of costumbre and
00:23
you know, know them as well as the American culture.
00:28
So that's why I wanted,
00:29
you know, you're Mexican,
00:30
you have to speak Spanish too and you know,
00:32
you have to know all these things.
00:35
So Alexander is already bilingual.
00:43
what lessons specifically do you focus on for this trip to Mexico
00:46
So you have a few things here.
00:47
You can, you mind explaining the whole set up.
00:50
This is for when you go to a restaurant,
00:52
like sometimes they are going to give you a soda and a
00:57
it's because I think they have to return.
01:00
This is a Mexican to go cup.
01:04
Exactly. Exactly. Yes.
01:09
You talking about, I'm like,
01:12
oh, and then I'm going to go.
01:15
All right. So we have and Coca and then we have
01:23
you know, over there you have to buy your tortillas in
01:26
la tortillaria. So you have to take your own napkin and
01:30
then you put it on there and they put the tortillas in
01:34
here like on here and they just cover them like this.
01:37
I used to do this when I was a little girl all
01:39
the time. My mom would tell me to the tortillaria and
01:42
I would be like with my,
01:43
with my napkin, you know.
01:45
Yeah, there and this kind of scares me because I kind
01:48
of know where we're going with this one as a Mexican.
01:53
I have to have a lava in my house.
01:56
So over there in Mexico it's very common that you have a
01:59
lava. So may Aita would say to wash white clothes like
02:06
canines and stuff like that.
02:07
It's better if you want.
02:10
All right. So we have you got Alexander.
02:16
He wants some soda in the bag man.
02:18
Alexander. You want some soda?
02:21
It's actually going to be his first time drinking soda.
02:25
Yeah. Yeah, of course.
02:26
Don't worry. Let's see if he's like you want to taste
02:40
So all this prep and you know,
02:42
training, I guess you can say,
02:43
do you think it made a difference for your trip with Alexander
02:46
Well, I think so especially.
02:48
Oh yeah, especially because I always tell him Mijo you to
02:53
10 Espanol. Espanol.
02:55
It's just really nice to speak both languages,
02:58
Yeah. I think you get to converse and even though it's
03:00
just a language specifically,
03:01
but like you experience more of that culture as well,
03:05
it kind of comes with it,
03:05
right? The right being Mexican,
03:08
you know, and everything and even like this Latino because sometimes
03:11
you talk to other people that aren't silly Mexican.
03:13
But again, knowing that language,
03:15
I feel like open that door for you.
03:17
Yeah, that's awesome.
03:19
Did he pass the Mexican check?
03:24
I think he's still small but you know,
03:26
I mean, I think he knows a lot of words,
03:29
right? So he's already got me be with my Noa Spanish
03:31
So for me it's like they had to speak Spanish.
03:35
Maybe they can be a little bit nosa kids.
03:38
You know what is something like when you say like for example
03:45
you say a word but it's OK.
03:51
It's OK. It's just that when you go to Mexico,
03:53
like if you're going to Mexico,
03:55
you need to say the word like estacion because if you say
03:58
they're going to be like,
03:59
what is that? You know,
04:05
there's no, so I feel like it's all good.
04:09
It's you as the parents instill that culture in him.
04:12
Again, the tortilla culture,
04:14
the boa these little experiences are going to eventually leave a mark
04:20
on him. And I think it's fun.
04:22
It's fun. I think we're having fun and it's funny that
04:25
you mentioned that you don't want him to be no Savo or
04:28
not even that, but speak incorrect Spanish because you go over
04:31
there, they speak English now.
04:33
They're like, no se com and I'm like,
04:37
wait, why are you guys now using English?
04:46
I think they call them the weans,
04:48
Ians when you're trying to speak English and Spanish over there.
04:55
they're whites. Yeah,
04:57
definitely. So again,
04:58
it's like no Sao Wean,
05:01
they're all the same and we're all Latino.
05:07
I feel like it's a good starter pack for myself.
05:09
So I'm going to make sure I remember all this when I
05:11
go to Mexico in a few months,
05:12
you need this. I need that.
05:14
I'll try to pack that.
05:16
At least you're going to need this for not going to hit
05:21
the same. And where can people find you on social media
05:27
for me, Johnny Sanders,
05:28
Jon Isa Ndez and Xander.
05:32
We're going to have a social for Xander soon.
05:36
He's getting popular with the B All right guys.
05:41
Show him some love and we'll see you guys in Mexico maybe
