Because of Cindy and Fred's you tube videos, I decided to make Haultulco home. I'm going on 4 years here...its safe and my health has improved dramatically.
Hi there, wondering if you have any info or advice on a place to rent. I’d like to be there seasonally. I’m a single older woman who doesn’t need fancy, just clean. Looking for a one or two bdrm apartment or such, fairly close to the beach and markets/town. Foot transportation only. Any ideas? I’d be there 6 months a year, looking to pay 7000 pesos or less. Possible?
Hik Tina, can you tell me what the health care is like there? I have a son that has seizures sometimes and am looking for a place that has good available health care if the need arises. Thank you!
@Dawn Hertz right behind you lol
@@ladyfeatherjane merida
How do I find their CZcams channel..please and thank you !❤
i love how you expressed about my country, im so happy that foreign people appreciate our country and are happy living here
The horrible US???
I love Mexico
@@michaelasay8587 yes
How are they finding these cheap places to rent? am I missing something Mony? I'm looking on google right now and everything is airbnb or it is very expensive to rent.
I think your country is beautiful! I would love living in Huatulco, Mexico if only my hubby will approve.
I’ve been agonizing over which city to move to in Mexico… this video helped me decide!!!
I’m getting off the American “hamster wheel”… I’m 66, single and ready to live a beautiful life among beautiful sweet people! with just my early Social Security. Thank you for all the great info!!
👏👏
I feel the same way about Mexico. Wanting to do this for years. Would you mind sharing what area you have chosen to live in.
I'm a senior female and have no family, so I would be doing this on my own.
I have just started to watch some videos of people from USA, and there's so many beautiful places I see how hard it will be to choose.
Just learn Spanish and be respectful to mexicans
y dont u stay in ur nasty mobile home
@@Dgarza7046 Where did this nasty comment come from?
I love this lady....very positive and no ego at all!!! This is the reason she looks healthy and smart....she is advising not go there to presum... just get there and relax and live a healthy and simple life as we all are here for!!!
She needs to be hired by the town, for marketing and tourism! OMG at the end when she speaks in Spanish about not being judged by Mexican's so charming.
Well, the older, retired people are bringing in money to the community, not getting into their politics, not taking their resources, not trying to water down their culture, nor taking jobs or business opportunities from the locals, etc.
Omg I love this woman!! She is brilliant, intelligent, witty, kind , energetic ! Fred keep her safe she is a gem!!
Summary: In this video, Cindy and Fred live in a beach town in Mexico for $1500 per month, renting a house for $250 per month. They give a tour of their house and discuss their budget home makeover, the cost of living in Mexico, the weather, safety, and their friend Natalia gives a tour of a three-bedroom rental home in the beach town of La Crucesita, Huatulco, Mexico.
Cindy and Fred have been living in Mexico for 25 years and 5 years, respectively. They rehabbed their rental house, adding a new kitchen, dining area, living room, and more. Their monthly budget, excluding food, is $1050. This includes two internet services, housekeeping, car maintenance, purified water, electricity (including air conditioning), and more. They spend 10,000 pesos ($500) on healthy food, including fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish.
The area they live in is safe and has a low crime rate. Huatulco is known for its nine bays, 36 beaches, whale-watching, turtle releases, and more. The city has purified water and is eco-friendly, with many natural reserves.
For transportation, Cindy and Fred use ATVs and walk, as everything is close in their town. A nearby rental home in a safe residential neighborhood costs 15,000 pesos per month, including internet but not utilities. The area has local restaurants, taxis, and is a short walk to the beach and downtown.
In Huatulco, rental prices vary depending on the season and the type of home. A house with a swimming pool can cost around 35,000 pesos per month, while a two-story unfurnished house can cost 7,000 to 8,000 pesos per month. Condominiums are also available for around $84,000.
Cindy and Fred also share some information about obtaining residency in Mexico and their experience living in the country. Overall, they are very happy living in Mexico and appreciate the acceptance and kindness of the local people.
@Jim Great summary. Thanks for taking the time!
That about sums it up. Well done. You cut right to the heart❤ of the matter. Thank you.
Happy to see that you and Fred have moved into a larger place.
Great summary
People improve health wise because the food is not modified or altered by genetics or chemical processes. It’s grown naturally and consumed as such.
Lisa Raper, I agree. I love the fresh food options available.
You can do the same thing anywhere just grow your own food. As humans we are inherently lazy and sometimes we have to force ourselves to do things by moving too far away places where the things we used to go for are not available anymore. Sometimes we have to outsmart ourselves. ❤
This is so wonderful to see that older people can retire very comfortably on their pension and social security. I would buy a small house so I wouldn't have to pay rent every month. This couple has found their niche and seems to be very happy in Mexico. Good luck to them.
Foreigners can't own in Mexico but they can "own" with a legal trust. My parents had a horrendous experience in Mexico getting screwed by the officials (notarios) who were supposed to set up the "trust". Plus everything was a rip off like when something needed fixing, etc. Rental is THE way to do it for the best experience.
Bs why they do t stay I. The USA we don’t want them here in Mexico gtfo
Too bad you can't do it in your own country. Why don't Americans vote better so you have representatives that fight for improvement? Not all the MAGA trash.
It’s very sad, I used to work going home to home and it’s so sad the way most retired normal people live in California. Some didn’t even have enough for food! A couple getting $2000 a month in social security, they lived in poverty, almost all of them. It was so sad. I’d rather live in Mexico or Philippines than struggle for $2000.
Americans cannot buy property in Mexico
I’m Nicaraguan & Irish. How fortunate I was to be able stay with my grandparents for summer breaks and learn Spanish. I agree with the Latin lifestyle. No one should ever be judged. The food? Don’t get me started!
👍🏻👍🏻
😂 food it’s amazing.
@@cortransport Too amazing!😀
Yeah they arent keeping her they sent her home until Thursday but on Thursday they going to give her a c section
Nicaraguan and Irish?! Dios mio, what an amazing, heroic, poetic, mix of national heritages!
@@teynaranjas788 Oh my goodness! You made me blush!
Thank you for the acknowledgment and your beautiful writing talent! Wow!
This lady must have some great local contacts and a very strong second language to secure the work and materials as stated in this video. Kudos to her!
Toward the end I put two and two together and I think she's Mexican-American so she's probably bilingual and Mexicans really I think would be nice to their own shall we say😊
I live in a resort coastal town in Mexico. I am a retired guy who lives a humble, simple life.
My monthly expenses in USD are as follows...
$375 - rent, including electricity, water, gas, internet.
$12 - cell phone
$87 - health care (IMSS)
$30 - all expenses to operate a moto scooter (transportation)
$330 - food
$ 6 - drinking water
$100 - entertainment
$60 - miscellaneous
$1,000 TOTAL
Naia,which resort town?
way to go..thats awsume
A very beautiful country. With Beautiful People. I ❤ Mexico!
But so many people from there have left.
@@MsMollah I’ll trade my house for five of theirs
I just love Cindy‘s attitude and zest for life .
Agree 100% been living in Mexico since 1986 , have had no desire to return , love Mexico ,
I've been there twice. It's an incredible place. There are beautiful waterfalls with Caribbean blue water not far from there. You can get a 2 hour spa with 1 hour massage for $30.
Can I ask where you got that 2 hour Spa with 1 hour massage for $30? ☺
I get a 90-min massage for $30 USD
Now this is the kind of expats we adore and like. Realistic, easygoing and nice!!!
I love Fred and Cindy. They are one of the first CZcamsrs i subscribed to regarding retiring in Mexico.❤️
me too
This couple had the most amount of great information from all the videos I have seen. Thank you Cindy!
Am not from Mexico am from El salvador. Visit Mexico all the time, love their people, most friendly country in the world!
I miss you guys I am so glad you two are doing well and still enjoying your life in Mexico 🇲🇽 ❤️
Everyone is happy 😊 in Mexico. I love ,and have embraced, my home by the sea 🌊 💙... I love their culture ...Mexicans are beautiful, kind people ❤️
Verlinda Allen, We agree. I have met many friendly, welcoming Mexicans here. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.
@@LivingOverseasTV , what do you do for medical insurance because i doubt you can use American insurances or medicare in Mexico!!
@@veravaladez1525 I am 83 now. I want to be close to family. I have good health insurance
So I prefer to stay here
For now
Beautiful and kind what about the cartel? Are they beautiful and kind too? 🤭🤭
why are they flooding the us?
I loved Huatulco when we were their in November 2022. Unfortunately, I didn’t go into town and I really wanted to. We love Mexico and the people very much! ❤
Jody Mooney, Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. I'm glad you found the video helpful.
This is what I mean when I speak of "beautiful" Mexico...
There's MANY MORE reasons to stay... live... love... than to "flee"...
There are numerous towns like this through the country... 👍🏽
Why are the majority of Mexica people in the USA lots of them here illegally they're fleeing from their own country!!?
Perfectly worded, ❤
I love huatulco! It's one of the best places I've visited. It's a hidden gem. Not a lot of tourists. Great, delicious food and the waterfalls are amazing!
💗💗I love Fred and Cindy, their channel is awesome and a treasure trove of information for those looking to move to Mexico. 💗💗
Thanks for interviewing Fred and Cindy. They always are so informative. They are down to earth and allow people like me who does not have much to dream big of a practical paradise.
So wonderful and heartwarming 💖 to hear you speak well of the home surrounding you are living in and embracing the community you are living in. Embracing the people you live with and appreciating their culture. So many times people travel, love where they are ,and don't appreciate and respect the people who live there.
Fantastic episode into life in Mexico. This life just seems to be so much more authentic to me. Know Guatemala quite well, this beach life is for me. Thanks for sharing, hopefully they won’t get overrun with the influx of us US-based retirees who are fed up with the way life is going in the USA. 👍🏻💥👏🏻🙏🏻
Agree 100% !!!
I retired in 2015 and have been going to Guatemala City every year minus the COVID season and I m paying less that $200 for my room per month I don’t cook because I can eat 3 meals per day for less than $10 ….per day, so why should I cook? I sold my Toyota truck, because it’s cheaper and safer to ride with Uber!
Why do you think I am watching this video? Life in the USA is not good. The earning of USD is great, but not much else. Retirement in the USA is getting further out of reach for most Americans. Also, the USA has no culture.
I retired in 2019, I currently live with family.
I really need my own home 🤨
@@deborahriley1166 I wish you luck. The issue I face now is where to retire to in South America. Money has become less the issue lately. Especially in Mexico, Colombia, etc. I am done with the USA.
I turned 60 this past November and when I think about retirement I think of how unattainable it seems. I don't wan tot work until I am dead, so I have been looking at other alternatives and this would definitely be one for me.
where are your from! Miss windy... I have been to Cancun Mexico at least 5 times.. I wld love to move but I dont know ..im reading we can loose our ss if we live the state !!!
If you are a Karen don't go to mexico
@@__-fl3ytonly a Karen would say that !!
@@desertsunset8025 i am trying to get and advice to most Americans. We don't care about the customers it is always right and we can show you how to respect people.
@@__-fl3yt no, I am no Karen, LOL
I am happy for you because you managed to get residency years ago. As Fred noted, now it is not possible to get a resident visa on a small fixed income (mine is USD$1500) because Mexico recently raised the monthly income requirement to over USD$2500. The best thing Fred did was to marry Cindy! ¡Felicitaciones!
Yes, I don't understand why the amount has increased so much. I picked the right time for residency (permanent residency Feb 2022). I live comfortably on my $1600 Social Security in Hermosillo.
@@gretchengraef3012 Maybe they are getting overly saturated with foreigners.
I heard it was $4500 per month.
@@gretchengraef3012 ... I just read this on Mexperience for a permanent visa: "A regular income of at least c.US$7,300 per month, every month, over the last 6 months. (Some consulates request 12 months.)"
There are many other ways to get residency in Mexico, if you don't know how just hire a lawyer and he'll walk you through.
I’m Mexican on my retirement would love to move to” almost heaven, Huatulco”. 😍
Worry about health care
@@lindawilson8434 in Mx is way cheaper visit to Dr, good prices for medication and great meds. Our plan is also our retirement in Puerto Vallarta Mx.
The people of Oaxaca are super friendly and welcoming to strangers, pretty much everyone I met backpacking along the coast from Puerto Escondido down through Hualtulco was just so friendly. I was down a couple months ago after the hurricane Agatha had gone through and I was amazed to see how much everyone had pulled together to get things put back together again.
I’m not afraid to move.I just need to learn the areas and best places for me, my main thing is having a digital job.
OMG I love Cindy! She's a hoot! I want her to be my friend. I'm so excited to watch their videos & learn more. Great video & thanks for sharing Jim! :)
We can’t take the heat. We live in the mountains of Matagalpa, Nicaragua…great little city. Our budget, if you don’t include what we spend on our 3 dogs is easily under $1000/month.
Our rental house is $200/month. Fresh fruits n veggies everywhere.
$20 cell phone
$50 internet 235 mgb /20 mgb- fast !
Electric$15-$20/month
Gas- $5. stove
Safe, inexpensive, wonderful people.
I’m with you, please let me know if you can share any more about your area! Cindy says the best season to rent is May. Does Matalgapa have a low season as well? I will be watching your channel! Thanks in advance!
@@sweetsongstress7398
Hi Songstress,
I get the feeling there is not really a season here. There are very few expats here ( I understand approx 400 ). The temps stay roughly the same all year round…..varies but not that much. Happily we will be through the two hotter months in 5-6 weeks. If you have any questions please let me know.
Nice! I prefer the mountains.
@@therehastobesomethingmoore yes I will, thank you for taking the moment to reply, very helpful! :) have a good weekend out there. Hope to see more of your adventures!
I definitely want to live here, I lived in Tulum and it was beautiful but too expensive. Huatulco looks beautiful and I’d like to work and live free in Mexico most definitely
I have a word for you: gentrification
As soon you don't see yourself as a queen
@@cocoa575exactly
As always, I really enjoy your videos and have learned alot. Cindy and Fred look like a fun and cool couple and I enjoy their vlogs as well. I flew into Huatulco last November and stayed in Zipolite for about a month. I also enjoyed Mazunte and Pachutla ( especially the weekly market ). I now know that I will return to Mexcico soon. Campeche is also definately on my radar, but there is something about Huatulco and the surrounding areas that just felt right for me. This is will hopefully be my future retirement destination. All the best from Germany.
Dave71, Thanks for supporting the channel and sharing your personal experience. I was hoping to spend more time in Mazunte and Zipolite. There are just too many places to explore.
That lady is an absolute Angel from Heaven. God bless her and her husband. Thank you so much for sharing this! God bless you. ❤🎉
What a wonderful couple. They really know how to live well for less. 👍
So many memories are coming back from when we lived in Mexico.
The funniest memory was when you were walking down the street and had to duck down as you walked under the trees and plants.😅😊
When I'm 80, I hope to have such a positive, lively fun partner as Cindy. God bless you both!
Welcome home just to hear how happy your life is there is a compliment to my beautiful country now you know why Mexico is one of the happier countries in the world
Why are they all here in the USA??
They just killed an Argentinian kid with a machete and a Canadian young man was shot dead all in the beautiful state of Oaxaca,
BobPop thank you so much for caring about us! Fred and Cindy
The very first video I saw about Mexico was when I was researching tiny homes and Cindy and Fred had a video about a tiny home in Mexico! It was their prior studio apartment. This started me on a binge of watching Mexico videos and then in 2021 I got my temp residency and renewed it for 3 years in 2022. Still living in the USA but Olán to sell my house early next year and move to Mexico city( and may winter run Huatulco or Puerto Vallarta!) All thanks to “retire in Mexico” videos by Cindy!! ❤❤❤
Thank you for your informative videos on Mexico.
I have been to Huatulco and Oaxaca many times.
I am from the USA and have travelled to many many places in Mexico and I have nothing but praise for the Mexican people I have met.
I have always been trested like family when I visit there.
My thoughts are that many visitors bring their rudeness with them and that makes us all look bad.
We can thank the news media for all of the negativity regarding Mexico
I’ve been here huatalco it’s the cleanest town in Mexico! Very beautiful the food is great!
I always loved Mexican people more than a lot of Americans I have met , to be honest
I love videos like this. I think that anyone wanting to change their lives for the better should consider moving to Mexico. Fantastic video of this wonderful couple.
Great to see Cindy and Fred again. They have their own CZcams channel too.
Always remember that only the bad news sales, I being in Mexico many times , even on not good at all zones and nothing happens, everyone was super nice to us. I can't wait to move down there. 7 more years and I see you there.
I love how she says “We Are” with so much pride, that’s what Mexico does to immigrants this why new immigrants and our ancestors regardless of which country they were able to adapt to the country and felt a sense of belonging, people from different backgrounds, cultures, race, are proud to call themselves Mexicans, because they are weather they were born there or they just been there for a few days 😊
A good point but I think she's Mexican-American which is why it was easier for her to do all the stuff she did and she's bilingual for sure Spanish English.
Got to love Cindy......"Tiene nervios, cuidese porque tiene nervios" she has adapted to the culture quite nice. Love it!
Thanks for hanging Cindy and Fred, I love this couple. It is so nice to see them healthy .
They both look great.
Wow, thank you Jim (and Cindy & Fred)!! That was great and definitely made me want to check our Huatulco!
Another good benefit of living by the ocean is the body works better at sea level then in mountains specially when a person is Older - the higher you go your blood pressure gos up too - and the fresh food and the weather and less stressed all of that makes a big difference, iv been thinking about moving to Mexico but my biggest problem i have is choosing where in Mexico , i have some friends that moved to la paz 2 years ago and they love it, but i understand there's better places as you go more south.
Cindy you pronounce clearly the words in Spanish. Congratulations.
I’m an American and have been to Huatulco. It is absolutely beautiful and the people are so nice and respectful of everyone. We really enjoyed our stay. I have been to many places in Mexico (absolutely love it). Huatulco…..l could definitely live there! If you haven’t been, please go. Enjoy your stay and be respectful.
@linb5216, Thanks for watching and taking the time to share your personal experience. I'm sure people will find it helpful.
Mexico is a Beautiful place 🎉 and so are the People 😊 would love ❤ to live here wn I'm retired,, God Bless you 🙏
Hwn808...u in the horrible US? Lol...
What a lovely couple able to share there home with us in a nice community in Mexico. Unfortunately, my medical condition will not be changed by a change of location.
Loved Cindy vibrant personality! I am in awe of the eco friendliness there! Will most def add to my list of places for sure ❤
Cindy and Fred has been my favorite for years!!
I am envious! Having respiratory issues limits me on everything...this video is hopeful. Especially the joint inflammation aspect. Bless you two!
Best of luck!
I have bronquitis and I am here in Huatulco for that and other old man issues. It is hot but my body loves it even though a fresh breeze is something to cherish here!!
Love to both of you for encouraging a beautiful retirement!!!🌸🙏🏼🤩
Over 500 people missing in Mexico..no way will I live in that country..but good luck to u..be safe
Levi jeans used to be $5, then the Mexican people realized how many people were buying them up...well of course the price jumped.
Looks like the same is happening with housing too.
Congratulations! se han adaptado a su nuevo hogar y vida aqui en México. Good
Frank Pourcel, Yes they have. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.
@@LivingOverseasTV why would they spend money renovating somone elses house with only a 3yr lease.
@@FreyaRae1510 Exactly what I was thinking. After their lease is up and the owner sees the renovations, she can jack up the price or decide to move back in herself.
It’s good seeing the layout of windows and knowing they have elders with little to No contact with there families nice seeing the streets and references exits strategies
Happy to see Fred and Cindy again! I have been wondering what happened to them as I haven't seen any of their videos lately; glad to know they are living well! Thanks for featuring them.
Something happened, CZcams took down their original channel
But they have a new channel now
I love the Mexican people! They are so kind and helpful.
Such a lovely couple. I was born in Mexico City but I've been in Phoenix 36 years. One day I will retire back to a place like this, maybe Vallarta. Loved how you said "we" are eco friendly. Loved it.
The way Phoenix is going downhill, I would advise you to make your move! I would love to get out of here myself! It’s becoming a hell hole and unaffordable!
I lived in Playa Zipolite for 3 yrs. It was 2020 when I was unable to return to Guatemala as I had no legal residency. I was angry at first but soon saw the blessings of my situation. I returned to the States this past Jan and only expected to be here a few months. Well one visit to friends on another State has turned into another and I won´t be returning to Costa Oaxaca until Sept. I am seriously looking at moving to Hualtuco. I loved it everytime I had reason to go. I am challenged with mobility and will need a rolling walker sooner than later and this city will be very easy to navigate. I love the ability to shop daily if needed for fresh veggies and fruits so a local neighborhood is exactly where I want to settle
I love Fred and Cindy.
Wow, that sounds so wonderful. Just started to learn Spanish and am looking for an area to retire on SS. The residency qualifications may be a problem but I saw a video that said you can drastically reduce the financial requirement by getting temporary residency first and then go for permanent residency after 4 years much easier. I'll look into more once I'm closer to actually taking the plunge. I want to know decent Spanish and save for the next year or two.
You are so smart to have some Spanish and a willingness to learn more. I am learning on top of learning so don’t stop. Don’t fall for those who say “oh, you can get by without knowing Spanish.” The level you are treated is based largely on your level of Spanish. And you’re less likely to get ripped off which happens everywhere unfortunately. Buena suerte.
Yes and still there's a way more easy for old people
Wow! Where in the world can you get that kind of affordable rent and living expenses? And the fact that it is close to California, it is a no brainer jewel of a place. Looks like a safe and peaceful place. Wonderful! I wish my hubby will approve the idea that we try living there for at least a month for a dry run for a change. Thank you for sharing the information. I am now one of your subscribers.
When you speak the language of your guest country you're showing appreciation and respect. This lady fits in really well because she speaks Spanish and so is able to blend in with the locals.
@ufosrus, Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.
The warmer climate is ideal... Thank you for the information. It's great that Mexico welcomes foreign residents.
I would love to move there or oaxaca ! But it seems getting permanent residency is harder in most countries than I 1st thought, iv looked into greece, cyprus, Portugal etc for gaining permanent residency, but it's not as easy as I thought, however Mexico would be a dream come true, sell our home and move as we are both now retired.
Que bonita pareja muy amables irradian muy buena vibra, muchos saludos y bendiciones!!!
My heart is overwhelmed by this beautiful vlog
I miss their CZcams channel. I am glad that they are doing well.
Mexico is so GREAT! I feel blessed to have lived and travelled there when I was a young adult!
Thank you for saying that Mexicans are friendly and they are kind and considerate of others something many Americans are not!
Please include the Canadians! I am a gringo from the USA and I am here in Huatulco and I don’t want to shop some days in some stores where the foreigners think they own the place. I want to somehow say that in love, but I will pray for them is the best I can do at the moment.
I agree,

I HAD BEEN LOOOKING FOR THIS COUPLE ...FRED AND CINDY!!
What a great little video this was. Thanks guys. I still have some years, but maybe I'll see you there!
Bravo. Bonita Zona y gente agradable.
Huatulco the most beautiful place to visit and enjoy their beaches
Especially the food , and all the culture for generations. Huatulco ,Oaxaca
Latino American from Ohio here. I moved to Zacapoxtla. I go back and forth to the US, as I'm in Nursing School. The goal is to provide healthcare for my neighbors.
I built my 2500sq ft house for 45,000 USD. My current budget in Mexico about 550 USD a month. I also built a restaurant, tortirila, and grocery store next to my house. I paid 4,000 USD for my lots.
Behind my house and my other properties, i have 1/4 acres of farm land, where i grow, grapes, watermelon, lettuce, kale, corn.
The great thing about being here is that there is no white people to inflate the costs.
HA
So true
I would like to surround myself with people like them. So much wisdom, and they are just delightful.
Looks so nice and laid back. Thanks for sharing.
I love the Mexican culture, I plan to expat in 5 years +/-. I currently live in a small town in Colorado, and the influx of new residents has affected our community negatively. I hope that as an American we will continue to be welcomed there.
welcome to mexico we do not see the color of the skin we only see the heart and if you come to mexico continue with the mexican culture do not try to change it
Welcome to Mexico 🇲🇽
Just be careful, you don't call yourself an ex Pat. The Mexicans want you to call yourself an immigrant. For some reason, some people get really uptight about it. It's just a word to me. I don't think it really matters, but some people have an issue with it. And I don't understand that!
Very honest and informative video. If you guys ever need to adopt 54 year son, I will be happy to quit my stressful life here in Virginia and move right in. God bless you both and your wonderful nest. 🙏
happy to say Huatulco is my 2nd home and soon to be my permanent home 🏡
What an amazing couple. I enjoyed Cindy's humor and wealth of info.
Mexico is beautiful. And so are the people.
As a Mexican I’d like to say, that yes, we do judge you.
Edgar, you're right. Most people, regardless of culture, judge. But like the lady said, in Mexican/Latin culture, they don't really care and will even help you out if you are in trouble. That's the difference between the West and Latin/Asian cultures.
Depends how you was raised!
I really enjoyed this video and the lady was such a pleasure to watch and listen too. She really explained things in such a way as to set everyone’s mind at ease and make you feel comfortable. Both she and Fred (I think his name was -?) made you feel comfortable. I know that if I moved there that I would want to be friends with them. I have been wanting to relocate since before I started college. That was more than 30 years ago. It was amazing to see how inexpensive the rent is. Boy, I would love one of those houses. I’m glad that you two are enjoying your lives together.
I just love how they are living thier best life!!!
Very nice video ! You both are looking very well and healthy!

Any Mexican people I have met here in NY who were migrants, were awesome friendly people with a great vibe. Traveling to Mexico because of it
