Hey Cartess, people who never traveled see the “rustic” look of some parts of Mexico and equate that with crime. That’s the narrative in the states. When I was in Merida for a month my friend lives in Juan Pablo and we walked. The friendliest people ever! Everyone we passed said “Buenas!” They don’t waste tax dollars on massive projects repairing unnecessary sidewalks. If the neighbors want it, they can do it. Different mindset. Mexico looks just like lots of the world…but safe, kind and friendly people!

@MoveAbroadandThrive Жыл бұрын

Amen!!! Juan Pablo is gorgeous to me. I love it. Like you said, super friendly people over there. Our favorite spot for burritos is over there and we're there quite often. But you're right; that rustic look have folks thinking it's bad -- but the complete opposite.

Let's be honest, Cartess, most Americans will not adjust. They don't want to make the effort to learn the language nor a new culture, and as you know, Mexico is very different. One of the reasons why they like Portugal is because many people speak English and they just hang around other Americans. That will wear off one day. I'm glad you decided to stay in Mexico because it is a wonderful country. The people, the food and the weather. I can't wait to move to Mexico. I know I will be happier. I'm happy in the US, but I love Mexico so much more. Cartess, take easy on the queen. Lol

Great video bro! Love you and your family! I am coming there very soon! I am officially retiring in September at 62, and trying to get my wife to retire, too. She was born and raised there, but in the far north park of Mexico. We just left Chicago after 30 years and moved on the border of IL\IND. However, in Chicago - to prepare me for the move, we moved to Pilsen, an 85% Mexican hood, where I picked up Spanglish. LOL. Looking forward to me of your videos and I want to start a business there and a non-profit, just like I have here. We are looking to rent a home for under $1500 USD per month. I also want to find a fixer-upper to rehab myself, to rent and pass on to her family in Mexico. We got TWO of them through college - first in their family!!!! I hope I can find a BBQ joint. If not, I may have to create one. LOL. Yep, I also love Salsa, but I will start a Blues, Jazz and other music band if necessary, too.

It’ll force you to change however some people cower back to the states. They don’t like what they see and instead of fixing it they rather go back to being comfortably asleep. There will be struggles adjusting to a new place and like the US you will have financial struggles at times, that’s life! The keys are discipline and commitment! Just like in a relationship. Everything you e said in this video is telling of the types of relationships people have with others and how they value them. That may be a bit too deep but I understood.
