Thank you for sharing your Merida, El Centro experience. I love all the little shops and the variety they offer. One thing I noticed is there’s no trash in the streets like by the curbs or sidewalks. This is amazing to me with so many people sharing small sidewalks. The older, authentic part of the city is much more desirable to me me than a mall. If I wanted to live in a modern condo or go to a super mall, I’d stay in the US.
@JoseArteagaTravels
@JoseArteagaTravels Год назад
Great observation! Reason things are so clean is because most people pick after themselves, but also there are tons of street sweepers walking around most downtown areas in Mexico and they make sure to clean up whatever is actually left behind by others. If you think Merida is clean you should also check out some of the other big major cities in Mexico. Its incredible how clean they always keep everything!

Thanks for sharing this, Jose! When my husband and I were in PV for our honeymoon, we took a "wrong" turn and ended up in an area that looked like this. I speak enough Spanish to get by though, so we enjoyed the experience. And I felt safe. Overall, it was just less touristy. I noticed lots of Mexicans walking to work, grabbing cheap food, and just generally running errands. Definitely a different vibe than the touristy streets and things were noticeably cheaper.

Especially toys from the flea market :) (ah those memories when you are standing on a piece of box paper under a "curtain" that the lady is holding, so you can try those pants mom wanted to buy you for school😭) And then we went to buy a lot of fresh fruits and veggies !and sweets of course! tasty meats and cheese, freshly baked bread and butter from this place to finally have a nice dinner 😋

I don't know how I missed this one! Great walk around video! So in terms of sizing that you mentioned, What size is your shirt in US size verses Mexican size? I guess what I am asking is if I wear a size Large or X-Large in the US would that same sizing be the same in Merida? and Shoes.. lets say I wear a US size 10... is the number size different or just not available in larger sizes?
@JoseArteagaTravels
@JoseArteagaTravels Год назад
Sizes are Different out here. An X-Large from the US is too big on me and an X-Large here is too small sometimes. Finding cloths is a challenge.

Great Question! Clean it depends on location, Private yes mostly, and lastly none of those have toilet seats. But basically in case of Emergency they have them. Also if you dont like those restrooms you can always find a fancy department store like SEARS that will have clean and Free bathrooms, but still no toilet seats in most locations when in public

I lived in Merida for eight years, just got back to Canada the 11th of September 2023, I practically run away. My stepson he'd been stealing from me. I found nothing but thieves and scammers. The city has nothing to offer, if you aren't from there, prices go up, the double or more. I coud write a book. I'm done with Mexico, not to ever go back. Get the heck out of there!!

My wife and I are considering moving to Mexico with our kids, we are basically being evacuated from our home because we live near the Ohio chemical spill. We have about 30k to come out with and we're hoping it's enough to get started in a little house and pay for food until we find work. I wanted to ask you if you think that is enough to get started and if it's easy to find work as an American in Mexico?
@JoseArteagaTravels
@JoseArteagaTravels Год назад
So sorry to hear about your situation. Our hearts go out to you guys. Short Answer yes it is plenty of money to get started. As for finding work in Mexico that gets more tricky and it is often best to just work online or start your own business out here. I go more in depth on these questions in many of my videos, or if you prefer you can book an online consultation with me and I can answer everything more in depth in person on a zoom call. You can go to my website for more information you seek and if you decide to book a consultation there is info on that as well. www.josearteaga.com/ Good luck with everything!
