This is a video I recorded when I first arrived to Merida 6-months ago. It was one of my favorite interviews. This was the young lady that prompted me to come visit Merida and after that visit, I was hooked!
She shares a lot of practical information on what to do and not do while planning your escape to live abroad. She'll answer questions like:
- What made her leave the U.S.??
- Does she feel safe?
- Did she know Spanish before she went?
- How does she feel Mexico is handling the Covid crisis?
- Is she working remotely?
- Is there reliable internet service?
- Is she there on a tourist visa or did she get a temporary visa?
- What are the income requirements for a temporary visa?
- Are Mexicans accepting of expats?
She has legally opened up a business in Merida and got approval from her attorney to open up since this video was shot.

Wonderful guest Cartess. You stated that you had only been in Merida for a week. Cartess you have come a long way. I met you and I have been watching your videos in Boston for 2 1/2 yrs. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Great interview and good luck to Stephanie and her new business. Also, the US largely portrays Mexico as a dangerous place to visit and live outside of the more commonly known tourist destinations so many people dont view it as an alternative place to live, which is quite the opposite.

@MoveAbroadandThrive 2 года назад

Agreed 1000%

Just found your channel! Great interview! My significant other and I just started traveling and currently living in Thailand. We are loving it!! This is our first stop and we want to travel around more but Thailand is really impressing us at this moment. We did the same thing. We quit our jobs and said forget it we want to travel lol. We did our research never been to Thailand but we did have a plan. Yes Airbnb and FB groups are definitely the way to go to get your grounding. Just traveling itself, being in a beautiful country and having your dollar stretch far has been amazing!

“Black Australians”? Lol! They’re called “Aborigines “, They are indigenous, actually have brown skin, very brown skin, look like you, and not placed via “slavery”. They are not “black” and know their nationality. They are suffering the same fate as Americas’ indigenous- by the same hands. Please read history of Australia and understand, it is not a European country- not yet.

Ross can you talk about the current immigration/Expat issues in Mexico. Keep hearing they will not give you the 180 day stay anymore?

@cassandragarcia3363 2 года назад

There is no guarantee they will give you a 180 day visa lately and the days of border runs are over. That's correct.

@MoveAbroadandThrive 2 года назад

They're cracking down .... Back in the day, when you showed up, most folks got 180 days by default. It was just given. Not so much anymore. You need to have a valid reason for why you're here. If your hotel shows only two weeks, u risk only getting that. You'll need to have valid reasons to get the full 180. It's a lot more detailed than this but it's not too much of an issue if you're not trying to game the system. They're really trying to push long term visitors towards getting residency. Gaming the system with 6-month border runs is what they're cracking down on. If you gonna be here longterm, much easier to do the residency paper work before coming.

Question; if you don’t live near a consulate can you apply for your application online or do you actual have to travel to a consulate.

@MoveAbroadandThrive 2 года назад

You can only apply at a consulate outside of MEXICO

@philippinecowboy 2 года назад

You can stay in Mexico for up to 180 days, then you have to leave and come back in and the 180 days starts over.

@cassandragarcia3363 2 года назад

Or not... They have been giving out much shorter visas lately and the days of border runs are over... Fyi. Time's are changing.

Thanks for the video.. I plan on moving and retiring somewhere outside the U.S. when I retire in a few years. It's not an easy choice for me. I have been to so many countries in the world, but I still don't know where I want to settle as I become older. How is the noise level in Mexico? I have been told that it's a very noisy place with constant fireworks, etc, etc.. Is this so?

@MoveAbroadandThrive 2 года назад

Not that kinda noise where I'm at (in Merida), maybe other parts of Mexico. Colombia is loud as hell, lol!!! Barking dogs can be an issue here but you can work around that. Just gotta come explore it as an option to be certain.

@carmenmich 2 года назад

After visiting, Merida I wouldn’t recommend it. It was my least favorite state in Mexico. The roaches and frogs at my Airbnb traumatized me. I stayed in a fine hotel and a tarantula wondered into the lobby. It’s super hot there. Too hot to really go anywhere and enjoy it.

@MoveAbroadandThrive 2 года назад

I hate your experience wasn't a great one. Hopefully you'll find your dream place.

@ricardo_cn 2 года назад

It is obviously not for everyone, however on your traumatizing experience finding frogs and roaches and too hot for you put the whole State in the same basket not to recommend? Closed mind it and out order of your part. I live in the UK and rains alot here and I find frogs and spiders here as well. Life goes on

@Mexicobeanpole 2 года назад

I live in Florida. Lizards. Frogs. Palmetto bugs (flying roaches) are a fact of life. They find their way into the cleanest of houses. Don’t let little things ruin a possible blissful life. Attitude and flexibility is everything.

@Mexicobeanpole 2 года назад

Traumatized? Really? You must have had a cushy life.
