Description:
My friends Sasha & Lisa are nomadic, slow travelers. They work online and moved to the Marina Vallarta neighborhood in Puerto Vallarta for the high season, winter months and have been living a very comfortable lifestyle. I’ll talk to them about their budget and about Marina Vallarta, and we’ll take a look at the Marina and at the Marina Vallarta Golf Club in today’s episode of Living Overseas TV.

I will forever appreciate this channel "Living Overseas Tv". You've helped my family a lot,since the pandemic till now your advices and lessons are inspirational and helpful to us.
My husband and I have been able to be minimal, conscious in spending,saving and lnves,ting wisely. We have able to earn on a weekly basis and it helps the family a lot. You're such a blessing to this generation. We all love♥️😊. I'm so happy to join you today too
They're more than a blessing to us. They've changed a lot of families and teenagers for good. We all love you ♥️
Since my colleague introduced me to this channel, I've never missed a content and I'm happy and I'm proud of myself because I've learnt and taught my kids a lot. I'm happy for you dear keep it up👍
Thanks for another great program. The Marina is certainly up-scale "Gringoville", and perfect for those who want that lifestyle and can afford it. $3000 a month for food tells it all. Certainly not typical for most expat residents here.
Barbro Zaniewicz, I agree, they live an up-scale lifestyle. I didn't find the Marina area to be too much of a Gringoville. There are many wealthy Mexicans there too.
Yeah Zona Romantica is more Gringoville than Marina but also less expensive overall.
It would be great to see a similar interview with a couple with children. Not sure if many parents live a travel lifestyle with kiddos but would be interesting to see how they deal with schooling and safety.
Nick DePalma, There are more families starting to live the nomadic life. I will try to cover some information about this in the future. Many international schools are now using standards from International Baccalaureate (IB), Waldorf and Montessori, which make it easy to move around and still provide a consistent education for your kids.
@@LivingOverseasTV awesome thanks! Love the channel.
Thanks. Nice to see high and low budget options on your channel
Stephen Dunn, I'm going to start including more examples at all price ranges. Thanks for supporting the channel.
Title of video literally says “HIGH END LIVING”
Everyone: This is too high! 😂🤦🏾♂️
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it
the croc's stories recently opened MY eyes!! but I still think a visit before renting for a few years is smart.👍🏼🇺🇸
Thank you!!!
Loving the Puerto Vallarta and Mexico stuff!
Expat Explorer, Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.I'll be posting a cost of living guide for Puerto Vallarta soon.
Gracias por el video, ya quiero ir a Puerto Vallarta otra vez. Me gusta mucho Puerto Vallarta y me da gusto saber que ustedes también lo disfrutan.
Rocio Mondragon, Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.
Thank you
a lovely couple, they seem quite genuine, down -to-earth. and nice to see them living their dream 'out loud.' they made it happen, it's inspiring - and they seem to be quite cognizant about how privileged they are. they really seem to appreciate it.
Puerta Vallarta is a bit more my speed but I can appreciate the reasons this couple chose a more upscale lifestyle, makes total sense for what their needs & preferences are. and they sure weren't kidding when they said they were close to the airport! I mean, when I heard Marina Vallarta was only a 20 minute drive north[?] of Puerta V., I thought:
'well, *that's* not so bad.' and especially since, for a decade, I lived a 3 hour[!!] 😯 drive away from the nearest major airport..because that's when I decided to move from the west coast to the southwest, USA..and very often there are trade-offs, as your interviewees know well.
but then they said they could *walk* to their local major airport in 10 minutes!😮 wowza!!🤦🏾♀️because that's incredible! and surely that could give one pause about how attached they would *really* be to living further away down the coast.
and well, living the digital nomad life is my next step, too..after my responsibilities have been carried out back home. and Mexico is definitely one of the places I'm considering as a landing place..thanks so much for sharing that interview.👍
Enjoyed seeing the marina and neighborhood, and love the peaceful, relaxed vibe. "No sueñes tu vida, vive tu sueño." Thank you 👍❤️
thank you for this video - very well done. Do you happen to have a link to the airbnb they rented?
I Rock
Woohoo #1
Thanks for the video. What is the name of the place you dance salsa?
COOL THANKS...............
*Who walks to the airport?!?! I'd love to have such convenient access just to marvel in the savings.* 🥰🤩🤩
I know exactly where this is. I stayed in the same place.
Is there a possibility of taking sailing lessons there? May seem like a minor point, but is there a dog park there or does everyone just walk their dogs? A great way to meet people!
$3000 per month for food?
That is way to much I don’t even spend that in San Diego CA and it’s 4 of us…not a good budget
Seems crazy, they say they are spending 1800/ mo for every dinner out. 1200 for breakfast and lunch groceries?
I know wtf y'all eatin
We live in the marina.....$1600 for 2/2...older building. I have no idea what they're eating for $1800 a month
@@temiekaingram279 I love the idea of living close to a marina! I love sailing & boating. However, I wouldn’t want to spend more than about $1K/month for rent. Do they have any places that rent for $1K/month (or less) if rented on a yearly basis?
The close proximity to the airport is a concern (not a plus) for me, as I would not like the noise associated with heavy air traffic. Is that a problem for you?
When we’ve stayed in that area we would wake up to the peacocks and iguanas on the golf course.
Catching up to costal California. No mas cheap
Ralph Ramirez, This is one of the most expensive areas in Puerto Vallarta. It's a Beverly Hills type neighborhood next to a marina. I'm guessing it's a lot cheaper than Marina del Rey. Although I do agree with you, it isn't cheap. I was living a few miles down the coast in a neighborhood I like better, and my rent was only $450 including utilities.
The apartments/condos in the marina are over priced to be Mexico.
Obviously not if they are occupied.
I just bought some land over seeing the see. You can see isla coral from a distance
Julio Sanchez, Congratulations on your purchase.
For $2800 a month you can live in a truly upscale area in the US with many high end shops and amenities . Its pretty there but really expensive for Mexico.
No you can't, any upscale neighborhood in the U.S is easily starting at 3k and will most likely cost 3,900 for the one you actually want. Trust me I live in Orange County California and I pay $3,200/month they recently wanted to raise the rent. I live in a 2 bed 2 bath apartment fyi
@@TheRemake1 California is not a good representation of most of the US. Both coasts are pretty pricey.
@@TheRemake1 From the Midwest to the South and including the Carolinas coast... You can live upscale for $2800/month. I think the earlier commenter has it right: California isn't the best example.
@@justicejoycetv Midwest to the south is full of a bunch of racist people. No thank you
@@TheRemake1 lolz. *Have you been around Cali? Know their history of racism or the US in total? Each coast has sundown towns, laws on the books that disenfranchise while LA country sheriff recruited racist cops from the deep South (read Texas and Louisiana) to come patrol and abuse their Black and Brown population. Please read up on US history as many of their racist tactics and events are codified in the law, published in plenty quality books and documented via first hand vetted person's telling their experiences.*

Those rent prices for Mexico are REDICULOUS
i just retired ...luv pv but trying to get my wife to invest in pv she thinks that investing in mexico is bad idea? ...how can one make a living there if she can see something like that she could change her mind?
Great talent and effort in every video you produce. Thank you, Jim!
Great video Jim! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, you too!
Budget?…3000 on food please I don’t even spend that in San Diego CA and it’s 4 of us and we go out every weekend breakfast,lunch and dinner after working hard every week why go to Mexico when you are still living like in USA
USA is boring.
@@lupitacajero7185 I was born in Jalisco n raised in USA and yes Jalisco is so much different tha USA I always have fun but USA has his fun part
@@liliana9854 Which is it? The fun part.
@@lupitacajero7185 there’s no boring it’s the individual that makes it boring in each place it’s the person that makes it fun whether Mexico or USA or anywhere in the world 💃
@@liliana9854 To a certain point, but without nice family it is a bore.
3000 dollars on food......oh god
ya that is insane! kind of defeats one of the purposes of living in Mexico with the reduced cost of food. I could live for 6 months for $3000 of food.
Don’t show as that can afford everything. Show how the normal people,like pensioners. The real people.
@@RedroomStudios If your purpose of living in Mexico is saving money then I'd suggest not living there, even though it can be extremely cheap if you're willing to eat like Mexicans. Rich foodies are gonna spend money wherever they go.
@@RedroomStudios that’s $16 day guy. Get real unless you basically eat rice and noodles all day.
@@jz3689 I guess you dont realize how cheap Mexico is. I have been here 2 months now and both months I have only spent $500 Canadian on food... groceries, alcohol, plus eating out and taxis plus tipping! so my estimate was bang on. and I am eating meat 2-3 times a day. you can eat out for $6. you can get a 6 pack of beer for less than $5. I bought 30 eggs and 6 tomatoes at a local tienda for $3.75. go back to sleep fool.
$2800 US Dollars ? Insane.
Plus $3000 US Dollars for food for two people and only dinner outside.
Almost NYC prices!
@@teacheschem yeah but not a complete dump like NYC
Yeah I would not pay $2800 for anything less than a full ocean view in Mexico. Heck I just wouldn't pay it at all.
agreed too expensive !
Sacha looks very French. Is he?
$2800 rent and $3000 for food???? This has got to be the worst budget imaginable, especially in Mexico.........Even if you wanted to live in a more expensive spot, YOUR FOOD should never ever exceed the rent, this cost of living video is a joke even to the well off tourists.
Way to pretentious. I travel there 2 times a month. These guys giving u misinformation.
Muleing?
Yeah. Sounds too expensive.
@todd brown yes they are. We live here and there's no way we'd pay or are paying that much for food.
They have no kid and they both work. And they both own companies so why not
Not realistic at all. Your title is misleading as this is not the typical cost & lifestyle.
His title says High End Living
Tittle says high end living.. these are indeed high end prices.
I dont even find their apartment luxurious at all
