Kirsten and Mark Raccuia are originally from Chicago and moved to Penang, Malaysia a few years ago. Then the pandemic hit. They knew they didn't want to move back to the U.S. but they also didn't want to move far from family. So they chose to move to Puerto Vallarta.
They share their hacks, ins and outs, cost of living in Vallarta. If you are curious as to what the day to day living is like in Puerto Vallarta then check out our interview.

[@dreamretirementinmexico]

best of luck!! Kirsten and Mark share some really candid and honest info that will be helpful to you before you head to PV!

[@darman1966]

This was so informative.... thank you all for being so detailed. I just turned 57 and honestly scared to retire. My wife and I have discussed retiring and moving to PV. Maybe it is time to take some vacation and give the area a test.

Thanks, another great informative video. He is totally right about Schwab. I have been using them for years because I travel internationally

Did you require a Visa to live in Penang, Malaysia?

Is that their neighbors dog barking in the background? 😵‍💫

With all the Walmarts and Costcos how do local merchants offer their own merchandise?

[@deanguy66]

We simply avoid WalMart in Vallarta, the same way we avoid it back in Chicago. Ha! We shop local as much as possible.

[@franciscoaltamiranoreynoso5802]

That’s enough. Masive moving of foreigners to Puerto Vallarta is turning our Town infested like a plague.

What's the biggest difference in terms of amentias and shopping experience between Puerto Vallarta and Playa del Carman?

[@RobertIsaacson-hi9sz]

I don't get it. If it's so nice why do you tell more gringos to come here
