      It really was useful, you gave the exact resources and details while other videos about finding remote jobs just tell you to go search the internet, as it was that easy. Also nobody ever mentions how competitive and difficult is to apply for those jobs, but you guys were real about everything. Thank you so much!

    Love, love, love (have I said love enough?) your videos Serg & Tana!! Such transparency/honesty! You guys are absolutely on a rocket to 10K subscribers (excuse the simple metaphor). Love the music on your videos. Who is the DJ? Coming to visit Mexico City and Queretero next month. Retiring in 3 weeks from my job with the State of California and looking VERY HARD at Mexico as our possible retirement home. Thanks for all the value you guys include in your videos. Sorry for the gushing. Love you and what you're doing!! ;-)

    Awesome! Awesome! You guys just gave me a lightbulb idea! I can't believe I didn't think about this before. I'm currently in a long distance relationship, me living in the states and my partner living in Mexico, and we've been having conversations about the next steps in our relationship.... mhmm, ring. The difficult decision ahead is choosing whether to make our lives in the US or in Mexico and so seeing you guys and how you've discovered these opportunities opens up a whole new door of possibilities. The decision suddenly feels less daunting, like we can have the ability to live and work where we want?! Time to do some research!
    Thank you guys!

    That was very helpful and love the vlog style!! Just curious, does Serg work 9-5pm the usual hours (US time) or does he get to work whenever he wants? I’m currently working a digital marketing job remotely but I work 9-5 so I imagine it would be hard to live the nomad life with that obligation. Also, Tana what do you do for money? Sorry I may have missed that in the vid!

    • @sergtana

    Hi there, I've been watching your CZcams channel since a week now. I like your videos because of simplicity. You don’t use any catchy phrase for title and drag the viewers to the end and force them to watch it.
    My name is Kamrul, I am a civil engineer and working in New York. We lve in New Jersey though. I am very curious to know if you have met any Expat family who moved to Mexico with kids and how are they adjusting there.
    Will look forward for your upcoming videos. Thank you.

    Nice video! Thank you for sharing! I am also thinking about diving into learning about SEO to get a remote job doing that! We will be moving to Mexico in a few months. My current employer said “no” to remote work. :(
    (Current job is in a totally different field.) If you don’t mind me asking, do you have any recommendations on where to start? Training/online course or ? What was your experience during the process of learning about the SEO field?
    Thank you.

    • @sergtana
      @sergtana  Před 3 lety +5

      Honestly, I learned on the job. This is why I suggest looking for roles that have words like "Jr." in the title. They hired me as a content writer, trained me to make content briefs, I started managing other writers, and so on. I'm by no means an expert on what other employers are looking for but in my case, this is how it worked! I guess from experience, I can suggest learning how to write for SEO as a first step!
