Tanji is adorable! What a interesting story! I cracked up when she mentioned her divorce and her face lit up... it was like "Freedom" !!! I am sure many people relate to that when they are in a relationship that doesn't give them the option to move in the direction they thrive! She is obviously Thriving! I love her energy! Thanks for sharing this!
What a wonderful video! Tanji, if an apartment opens up in your gorgeous building, please consider me! I'm planning to come back soon to look for a rental. I wrote part of my book, The Magic of Saying Yes: Answering Your Heart's True Calling in Puerto Vallarta and have always wanted to live there. Now it's finally possible for me! Much love and gratitude for sharing your story! 💖
Hello Brighton. This is a really awesome story from Tanji! I am so happy that she is happy in Puerto Vallarta. Thank you very much for sharing it. She really has a cool place there! Ha...I actually did expect to see a tiger walking around from behind the corner hehehehe Really unique architecture. And a killer outside porch! The world needs more Tanji's! That is incredible of her for all of her volunteer work she does for the local community! Safe travels!
Amazing, we just got back from the ALMAR in the romantic zone. Starting my planning on making my retirement move in the next 2 to 5 years. My partner and I would love to take you to dinner and chat. See what I might not have thought about! I’m so very happy for you. Be well and stay healthy! So envious…. Nervous but know this is going to be a great decision, former cruise director for RCCL and Celebrity cruise lines for 13 years. Been around the world 3 times as well! Big Brian Bear Hugs!
Have fun planning! My guest in this other video was also a cruise person. Not sure his position, but he mentioned doing the "previews" for the on shore jewelry tours. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ffu16rBkpQ8.html
Loved this interview with Tangi! We looked to find a place to stay in Puerto Vallarta to escape the Canadian winter, but the prices were really high on Airbnb. It sounds like there are some deals out there, but you would need to be there to find them. Glad we found your channel and we've subscribed! Cheers :)
Check out this video on Rentals. Mostly about La Paz, but there are suggestions on finding a cheaper place near the end. This link should take you to that section: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CLBu1j_YGE4.html
Really interesting video. You had a great subject in Tanji-it was great that you just let her go with it. There were edits where you probably prompted her with questions. But, then she ran with it. Best kind of interview, not every subject can do that and not ramble.
Wow this was so interesting. I first went to PV almost 40 years ago. She is describing the way it was back then. Clearly avoid the super tourist spots! I'm sure there are spas that would happily charge 4 times as much for a manicure. I've been back to PV a couple of times and have started going further out of town (like an hour north) but it sounds like I can find the "old" PV if I just ask the right people.
Yes - the "old PV" is still in there. Just harder to find. And the areas to the north are changing too! And I think you are right. Many tourist places charge US prices, or just a little bit less, because tourists are willing to pay it!
Bravo…. This is so inspiring to me! I love it! Thank you for sharing your story, it’s fascinating and it clearly evident that you are living your best life! I hope that I have an opportunity to meet you when I gone to PV. This winter!!!! Enjoy!
Tangi is everyone’s dream friend, land owner with great taste, and just so normal! Wish I could be a tenant asi know we would become friends. Very Best wishes for your continued happiness and good fortune! P
Hey Dean - I used to live in Buckhead (many years ago.) enjoy PV! And check our Living Simply in Mexico here on RU-vid. They have in-person gatherings in PV.
Hi Brighton! It was so nice meeting you and Kat a couple weeks ago. Even though it wasn't in La Paz it sure felt like it was. You mentioned InDriver at the end of your video, do they have that in La Paz and if so how prevalent is it? Did you see that they are looking to add in-home services like plumbing to the app? Another great video. Tanji is living the dream! 🍹☀
Nice meeting you too! They do have InDriver in La Paz. Ubers don't like going to El Centenario. InDriver is really the only choice. I got to the Uber app to get a price, then I offer a bit more on InDriver. Drivers can bid higher and you can choose what you are willing to pay. I didn't know about home services. I'll need to look into that! Thanks for letting me know!
Make it happen! Or just give it a try. I just posted a video about someone who moves about every 6 months: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xH2j-xKwgZ4.html
Hi tanji I'm impressed with your story and I'm happy for you, I' am in the process to move to PV and my plan is to purchase a property, I'm also not a condo person so can I ask you how much you paid for your property so I can have an idea, best wishes and I'm looking forward for the next video.
She didn't want to give the actual number, but know that it was less than $350,000USD. Here's a video that includes prices for different parts of PV: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Z3N1QLgBL-k.html
@@AlmostRetiredinMexico great!! Thats a good price for multiple units, I'm coming from Los Angeles and that's what I want to do, thank you for your information.
Brighton, I left you a link to an article in a comment about 15 minutes ago and it looks like RU-vid already removed my comment and the link. It was a link to an update on the FMM cards, from 8/20/22 published by Riviera Maya News.
She's awesome! Does she have a social media contact. I'm looking at places to move for retirement. I've never been to PV but I've heard great things. My big concerns are healthcare and I've heard housing prices have gone way up.
THANK YOU FOR SO MUCH OF YOUR ASSISTANCE, BUT I HEARD THAT THE EMBASSY HAD RISEN THE COST OF THE MINIMUN INCOME TO QUALIFY FOR PERMANENT RESIDENCY, IT IS REALLY MY ONLY OTHER OBSTICLE TO MOVE TO MEXICO, GRACIAS
They raise the minimum every year. But you can get temporary residency with a small amount and you can also find a consulate that has a lower limit. They are all different. I think McCleron Texas has the lowest requirements.
Hi there. Very informative video! I have a ? You said you have a friend on disability from the US living on disability. I want to do the same on SS from there. But, I read there are higher income requirements now. Can you explain how to do this if you don't have much money? I definitely can't afford to retire in the US on my SS. Please and thanks in advance.
The income requirements have gone up. Temporary residents (which you can convert to Permanent Residency in 4 years) are around $2500/month income or $45,000 in retirement accounts/banks/investments. FYI - this Wednesday I'm having a live Q&A with a disability expert: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zIl0KMq3hpQ.html
Hello I love your channel I was wondering about Tangi and would love to connect with her. Let me know any info as a almost retired women myself. Thank you in advance
Are you thinking about Puerto Vallarta, or any place in Mexico? PV is a great place to start. You could check AirBnb and see who's giving a discount for monthly rentals. Or you could Google Puerto Vallarta Vacation Rental and look for an agency. As to driving or flying, it probably depends on your lifestyle in Mexico. If you're a "city person" I'd fly in and leave my car in the US and just Uber in Mexico. But if you're a "go to the beach every day" person, you'll probably want a car to easily explore. Enjoy Mexico!
I live in McKinney Texas.,, and would definitely love to rent me an apartment of yours,,,, Doug have a website,link or acct for payment and lease.? Please let me know,,,thanks
I had some good food in PV, but I agree - maybe not the best in the world. Unless you maybe limit to affordable food (I can't afford the best food in the world.)
The comments sound just like women. After she divorced her rich husband and took more than half, she visited 50 countries and decided to settle down with her cat(s) and buy the whole building in PV. While still collecting alimony, she is able to make a video on how accomplished she is and how she deserves the lifestyle. Nice life if you can marry it. Her ex-husband now a poor broken man, works in an old age home in the outskirts of Portland Oregon as a janitor.
