Mexico is too expensive for us Rebecca, and we just generally prefer Asia, for food, culture and of course lower prices. The only thing that was drawing us there really was the 6 month visa.

The food is delicious and super cheap, city transpo also cheap and plentiful. And there are so very many interesting things to do and see in the city. Also, English language movies are easy to find and have very cheap tickets. The tourist area near the zocalo is very clean and safe, I loved staying there. But other parts of the city are probably even cheaper.

I now consider the city my home base, rather than anywhere in the States. It’s where I will return to when I leave this side of the Atlantic. There are still so many parts of the rest of the country I want to see, but I definitely have to get down to Buenos Aires and Montevideo at some point. So I’ll look forward to seeing what you have to say about those regions.

Thank you, Carol. This is all so inspiring! We are leaning toward just starting out by going to Thailand. We have friends living there, so we can touch base with them and go from there. I will definitely check out your blog.

Dunno…Brexit and all that, all hell could break loose any second! Didn’t say we’d be living there, just investing.
