When it’s meant to be. Wow!! So grateful to Mexico for allowing us these opportunities. 🇲🇽
This is our year to leave California for MX too! ❤🎉😊
Wooohoo!
We will be leaving Connecticut this year🎉🎉
I live in La and have been going down to a Playa Dc every winter. I love the relaxing healthy atmosphere. Very walkable . A few of downsides are the very severe humidity, the constant scams, lack of variety in foods and services , the cartels, the seaweed on the beaches and the mosquitos . The pros are very close to fun destinations like Bacalar , Holbox island , Merida. Also the Mexican people are so genuine and nice, no politics , wonderful vibrant culture which embraces family and friends time, the simple down to earth felling and the food taste so much better . Also flights are so cheap within Mexico so just go and explore . I definitely want to visit the Oaxaca beach side. Mexico is big so explore then rent before you buy .
We left California in June happily in Mexico City ! Come on down 🎉
My thoughts are the same as yours. Moved from CA to Mexico not long ago I too have had equal experiences. Love life in Mexico
Please leave Mexico.
Agree the health care is old school where they actually still care and ask about your whole self, from my experience. It’s wonderful
A great story from Brandy about her move to Mexico! Some people kind of instantly know, I think of Brighton and Kat who bought the first home they saw. I'm so happy for Brandy and her family!
This interview was extremely helpful for me. I have autoimmune conditions that require a rheumatologist and special medical care, so hearing someone else's medical story is eye opening.
I'll be there in August with my service dog!! 🐕
I so appreciate knowing where people come from and their prior U.S. lifestyle. Great profile!!
Hola from East Tennessee.
I actually reached out to Dr. Z's clinic about becoming a patient during the pandemic. It didn't work out. But it's so nice to hear the story of someone I am somewhat distantly connected to. Glad to hear that things have worked out so well for her.
What is the name of her clinic?
Wow, that was wonderful. Thanks for sharing so much.
Love this thanks, the plans are in the works ❤
I watch all of your videos and was surprised to see this one. I was a client at thier clinic in California and I'm a health professional and have recently Had Brandy's coaching program on my facebook feed. Enjoyed watching how happy moving has made her and can't wait until it's my turn. 1.5 more years. But have to admit this interview makes me want to do it all right now.
I loved this video so informative, thank you for sharing! 🙏💕🇲🇽
So succinct & informative. Great to hear the story of a fellow Northern Californian. Thank you for sharing the interview. Inspiring!🙏🏻
Daniel Violante's painting in the background is AMAZING!! I have a similar one in my condo!!
Thank you for your informative and interesting commentary. You actually hit on every subject and question I might have about what it is like to live in Mexico and the specifics of what it is like to live in Playa. I am so happy to hear that you and your husband are happy and that you did not let your health challenges stop you from living life on your terms. Many blessings to you!!!
Thank you for doing this video and sharing your story.❤️🇲🇽❤️‼️
Thanks for this interview. Florida was like this, too. We were there about 8 years. Everyone - even the kids are really friendly. And, I felt like I was on vacation all the time there as well. (but it's certainly expensive - we left before the pandemic). The tropics are great.
One of the most informative MRG interviews. Very articulate and succinct responses. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
Thank you for a lovely, informative video.
Thank you so much for such informative video! My husband and I are going to Tulum in a few months to look at the property in Country club in Tulum and hopefully we will find what we like. Very excited to move out of Chicago!
Well , we are planning to be there this summer😊😊😊
My husband and I have been all over Mexico the last two months. Hope we can come back. Not sure where we want to live. Love the coast line.
Hello 👋🏾 from Providence, Rhode Island.
Gracias Dr.Z
Very well done. Thank you.
Good episode.
Playa del Carmen is nice atmosphere, 45 minutes from cancun, 45 minutes from tulum, and a ferry ride to cozumel, and 90 minutes drive to take the ferry to holbox. Cancun airport is about 40 to 55 minutes depending on traffic. Merida is a 3 and half hour drive. They have train maya now that makes it easier to travel around to Yucatan and quintana roo. If you live before the highway, 45th I think and to beach, much more expensive and noisy, more traffic. After the highway, some traffic also, but much more affordable, but will need taxi , a car or a motorcycle 🏍 to get to the beach area and the 5th ave. I stayed by the beach for 11000 pesos for a studio 2 street from the beach, and a house with 2 bedroom for 10000 pesos after the highway. It's all about how you want to live. I have my residency from income, has to be Making over 2000 dollars a month for the past 6 months. My lawyer is amazing, took care of everything. There's so much groups in whatsapp, if need any of them, let me know.
My concern with Playa del Carmen would be the seaweed (sargassum) in the water. If I'm going to live near the ocean, I want to be able to go IN the ocean.
really not that big a deal...
Yea its not all year, and even if playa has Sagazo there are plenty of other close beaches that you can go with out any seaweed. So good luck and enjoy Mexico!
West coast, Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, LaPaz or Cabo.
@kims1912 yes; I'm sure there are other places to live in Mexico that are quite nice.
Great video. Which neighborhood in PDC are you living?
Ty
I can't wait to leave CA, getting away from here to freedom to stressful, my aim is Jalisco
Thanks so much for the great interview, Mariana! Perhaps one suggestion might be to be a little more clear as to where the lady moved to. It is somewhat apparent she is living in the Yucatan area. Perhaps a map might show exactly where she is. As in any country, not all locations are the same.
Thank you for all information, I am looking for a place to move, and I like the place do you living, can you tell me the name of the place please. Thank.
Thank you for your video and imput! Is there any way I can get a message to Dr. Z? My wife and I are wanting to move to the playa area. I also work in healthcare and am looking for online opportunities. I would love to ask her a few specific questions about how to go about this. Thanks
Girl I live in Tijuana and it was a nightmare trying to get a California license cuz I don't have a physical address in California so I had to go online get a fake address falsified documents and they March my ass up into the DMV so I can get a California license luckily it worked and I'm just hoping I can get it to where it needs to be so I won't get any warrants for my arrest
Hello, what is the name of the neighborhood? thank you.
That you have a companion makes a big difference. But I think the most important qualification for living in Mexico is fluency in the Mexican language. I hope my study of Spanish will give me basic conversational ability by the time I visit Mexico City later this year.
Definitely knowing some Spanish makes a huge difference in your experience. But even then most of our customers move to México without being fluent at all and learn while living there
Can you tell me what neighborhood you live in?
What part of California?
Very informative. Did you hire a lawyer in Cali to make your residency appointment etc
...to expedite process
You mentioned " Maria".
She hired one of the facilitators we recommend in our guide who lives in Mexico but helps our customers schedule their initial consulate appointments
If you’d like our directory of contacts check out our complete Mexico Relocation Guide mexicorelocationguide.com
Soon Mexico Caribbean price going up and up and where we are going after hm interesting 😮
I want to move there from California, but it's just me. Is it easy to meet people in Playa?
Very easy! It all depends on you and how involved you are with the various group meetups or how likely it is for you to talk to other strangers
@guzlui1
I’m planning on doing the move (solo) and was thinking the same thing. Thanks for asking.
What about your dog you took him too
Much like the United States, in Mexico, the further west you go, the nicer it gets. I've been to the Mayan Riviera. It's nice, but the Pacific Coast side of Mexico is much more beautiful.
Hola! Me voy a México en dos semanas! Love your video, very helpful. Is your contact Maria available to help me with my temporary residence visa? I'll be in Playa for a couple months then visiting Merida later on. Gracias! Linda
Hi Thanks for your comment! Maria is a facilitator we recommend in another city, not in Playa del Carmen. Brandy was a guest on our channel for MRG and she got all of her contacts from our COMPLETE Mexico Relocation Guide- check out what's included here mexicorelocationguide.com/guide/
We have contacts for Playa del Carmen and Merida
Rents in Playa are expensive!
Where is Playa not noisy af?
outside the 5th Avenue and downtown - they live in the outskirts
Where in Mexico do you live?
Playa del Carmen
I’d love to move to Mexico but I’m too sentimental that I can’t live with only 2 suitcases of belongings.
Girl I brought 22 luggage’s and a dog .. who says you can only bring 2 .. jump in !!
yes you can. you can do it
and I had to leave the USA for being priced out, everything it so expeensive, and wages dont match them now im in a mexican border city close to the US and i just go there to work and return to Mx everyday
no mortage payment, no home insurance premium, no high property tax, my light bill is around 50 dollars every other month, water Bill is 10 monthly, my house is all concrete 4 bed, 3 bath, and its paid off
I love 5th street. To visit. I wouldn’t live nearby.
Yeap! Same- that's why Brandy also chose a home on the outskirts of all the noise in PDC
Lawyer in México is a good idea
But you need 60k a year to get residency wtf
No, not at all; you've got to show that you are in possession of $60K, not that you earn $60K/year.
Yeah just get a loan in usa put in a bank account and boom 💥 or find a friend that let you borrow 60k
This is Mexico 🇲🇽
It's not what you know its who you know! The relocation guide can help you!😊
@@dluktonyou need to prove that you earn $4500 USD per month, around $54,000 pa.
What a great video. Curious how rents in PDC would compare to Bucerias. I’ve been looking and cant find anything that would allow me and my pets for less than $2,000. US. Guess i need to look around more.
