Merida: Yucatan Peninsula

Here We Go!

Have you ever heard of Merida, Mexico? We hadn’t either, but now we’re just about ready to try it out as our possible new home.

Last fall, while comparing cost of living stats for different areas of the U.S., we noted they also listed international locations.

Whoa!, a whole new world opened up and our blown minds started wandering to places they had never been before! What an incredible trip it has already become.

Close to home, easy access to parents and family, great healthcare, safe city, very low cost of living, international airports.

Markets with fresh fruits, veggies and seafood, beaches, friendly people, Mayan ruins, cenotes (natural gorgeous swimming holes), and great expat communities.

We are leaving September 15th for our first three month adventure: six weeks in Merida, then six weeks in Chicxulub,, twenty five miles north and right on the beach. We wanted to experience life in both a large city and a small community. It’s hot there and that may be the down side. We will tell you after we’ve experienced it.

We hope you enjoy this adventure with us.
