I was born and currently live in Guadalajara, Jalisco, México. The second largest city in the country and the most iconic one, some aspects even more in than the country's capital México City. People born in Guadalajara Metropolitan Zone is called "Tapatío" if male or "Tapatía" if female, thats how people from guadalajara is called by other Mexicans, say our demonym/gentilic. We are proud to lived in the city where several of the most iconic elements of Mexico were born.

Some of the histories and cultural icons in México comes from sad situations as a country, some say thats why we are capable of have a lot of festivities and be happy and celebrate life, we

Mariachi

There is the saying that the word mariachi comes from the french word marriage that is also present in the english. Other says it is a much more ancient word, a composition of a type of wood that was used to build the stage where the musicians played. The fact is that today it means "A group of Mexican musicians", and also refers to the music itself.

A popular saying goes like "When a mariachi plays, the world sings". And this in fact true, we have the world guiness record for most mariachis playing at the same time, more than 700 musicians, playing the same songs, and yes, "Guadalajara" have its very own song and was played in this event. Here you can watch the video Mariachi Guiness Record, at the 6:32 begins the song "Guadalajara Guadalajara". Aaa ya se me hizo la piel chinita (now i have goosebumps).

Charros

According to wikipedia: Charro is: The Spanish terms vaquero and ranchero (cowboy and rancher) are similar to the charro but different in culture, etiquette, mannerism, clothing, tradition and social status. You can learn and enjoy a bit more about a [Charreada], a famous competition in the region.

Tequila

its been made since the year 1795, in Jalisco state region called Tequila, so we are proud to have it very very close by (40 minutes from metropolitan city). In fact, the word itself, Tequila its what is called an appellation of origin, because it is the name of a small town where it all begin. Here, a nice video about how tequila is made

Interesting, so, what about technology and entrepreneurship ?

Tech companies

Tech Giants are looking to move core business operations to guadalajara. In a strategic move, Intell, Oracle and others are looking forward to gain advantage by moving operations to a city with higher skilled work force and increasing education standards, that combined with government incentives and a city where english is very well spoken among medium class level, they just see this as the future.

Besides tech giants, there are interesting cases of startups. You can see the big list in Angel.co with the tag Guadalajara.
