We are settling in to Merida! View the video above to get a quick tour of our home in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico.
We also spent the first night at a local hotel since we couldn’t get into the home until the next day. Here are a few pics of the hotel.
Our Home in Merida

Cute little place, where do we stay when visiting? Looks like minimalist living at it’s finest. What are you going to do to entertain yourselves, or to keep busy? Enjoy!

The couch is really a futon! (may not be real comfortable but better than the tile floor!) Or, you can wait till we are at our 2nd place (after 6 weeks) and it will have a 2nd bedroom! We seem to be keeping busy (Mexican version of ‘busy’!). Some of the things we’ve done or will have scheduled: coffee with other expats, visit markets, language school, and more relaxing!
Awesome! Glad you got settled! Glad all is well, love you guys!

Thanks, Helen! I think we will enjoy our little ‘house’ – especially since we haven’t been in one place for quite awhile. We get 6 whole weeks in one place! Love you back!
Love the house! Great launching place to explore everything. Laundry should be interesting! 🙂 How’s language school going? And what’s your favorite eating spot so far – or your newest favorite food?
Love you!

Laundry was interesting! It takes a bit longer! We start language school next week. Every place so far has been our favorite! The service is outstanding.
I LOVE it! And I see Lizzy! Keep up the blogging- love reading your adventures. Miss you both!

Thanks, Ashley! Can’t wait to have you visit us sometime!
I love seeing your home in Mexico! It looks like you two are enjoying yourselves. How exciting! Let me know how the washer works out. 😉

We have tried out the “washer and dryer”.:) For whatever reason the washer was a little harder on the knuckles than our last one, and the dryer seemed to take a little longer than we were used to.
Looks like a great place… the town looks so nice, beautiful architecture and very clean. That market looks like an organic eaters paradise. Your place looks cozy and comfy and a perfect place to get settled in and learn about your new hometown. Lizzy looks happy, she is such a trooper. Thanks for sharing and keep it coming!

Merida was the center of the henequen industry. This plant was used to make rope and twine. It created much wealth in the area, which was later supplanted by the introduction of nylon rope. That era produced the beautiful architecture.
Living in Merida is an incredible experience so far.
