Fabulous video! Thank you.

Wow I found this video and besides some chills and tears I must say right on time for me. I loved it needed it cause I been thinking of moving to Mexico from Cali I am burnt out and my health could be better with out all the stress of lack of funds being on SSI at a early age. Now in my 60's I am burnt out on this life as we know it to be the normal? The struggle is real here and getting worse. Thank you for your time and sharing your journey with us on here. I needed to see this more than you know. Your beautiful and wishing you a blessed life ahead. Thank you , from Joshua Tree Ca.

Hey, Kris. Great message and what a beautiful setting.

I'm right there with ya. Family watching me talk about family 😱

I just had a similar conversation about this topic. Deciding not to return to Corporate America was the best decision I've ever made. And while I'm still putting in 10 hour days as a content creator and caregiver, they are the moat joyous 10 hours I've ever spent.

I can’t wait for that 55 card question when I proclaim I’m a Senior Citizen! 😂😂how the heck are we considered senior citizens though? I’ll always take the discount for sure! I’m not “officially” retired I too stopped working at 52. I’ll be 55 next year. My days are much quicker than when I was working and I too want to slow down just a bit! What a gorgeous place you’re filming. Love the jump in! I love headstands and floating too! Great video! I love the creative change of scenes. I already know you had fun making this. Yes! I’m all about the birds! Like ALL about them!

Kris, this popped up on my feed. Glad you are better and you and D are enjoying the second act! Cheers to retirement! Jon and Sonia

Oh Kris! You know I love this. It’s just beautifully done. I love that your doing voice over, makes my heart glad. I find I just love this way of sharing too. This was a perfect visual with your lovely voice.

I love this. Especially the part about being thrown a problem and just having to use your own creativity and resources to find a solution. I'm in my mid-60s and SO TIRED of working, trying to survive until I'm 70 to get max Social Security. Or I could get off the couch and move to Mexico. I was contemplating the Lake Chapala area, but since I first started looking, prices have skyrocketed there and there aren't as many choices. I'm exploring alternatives.

Wonderful video ❤

Life begins after 50! I am 60 and I have never felt more comfortable in my own skin. I plant new seeds with every new moon. Really nice video.

Sorry you had to go through all of that. Happily you had loved ones along with you. I am curious why you left Mexico though, especially if you found it so healing. Did you ever consider trying for temporary or even permanent residency status there?

Love this! The video, the music, YOUR VOICE, and the metaphor. Beautiful, friend! ❤

Kris, I loved this! This video should have exploded! I also learn so much from my plants. When I tend them I feel like I am working with God. I do what I can and He does what I can’t.

Retirement to me means FREEDOM! I can hardly wait...but i have to.

Yay for me time! New subscriber. It is pretty hard for me to get up off the floor. LOL

I loved this. Your use of metaphors was masterful. ❤

Thank you for sharing your experience and wisdom ❤❤.

Hahaha the coyotes… ur face ❤😂. Too funny. Just dropping onto some of your other videos… found you from the Sayulita video. Cause I’m starting a KZbin channel and also making plans to head down there. Fingers crossed for November.

Omg, 😂😂😂 chair with legs cut off. It’s so funny but it’s so smart. And so Mexican, in the best way possible. I’m working on my move to Sayulita. ❤❤❤ I have lived in Playa del Carmen so I know the Mexican ways and already went through the adaptation phase. I’m back in Canada over 2 years now but not really by choice. ❤❤❤ can’t wait to move back permanently.

God bless you sweetie . I lost my mom at 50 years old to ovarian cancer . I wish I had been able to take her to the ocean and live, I think it might had saved her life . Blessing and Gods peace be with you and your family ♥️🙏

As much as I appreciate your fear of scorpions, I don't think that sharing the killing of any creature is truly healthy for anyone. You can be scared but that all creatures should be given reverence. Killing for your safety? Sure. Makes sense. Putting it online, different story. Killing any creature requires stopping in the moment and paying attention to what just happened. You KILLED something. Stop, think, perhaps what killing was indeed YOUR fault. Shower and drain covers? Door sweepers on the bottom? Clean floors? Lack of moisture?

What a beautiful story. Life has mysterious ways to teach us lessons and come wrapped in the box we least expect. Mexico heals you. Mexico is the best medicine for mind, body and soul. Even in Mexico City where I live and have been raised, Mexico teaches you to just go with the flow and to turn off autopilot as you say. We tend to live lighter than you guys, with less baggage and less great expectations… and the fewer expectations you have, the more magical life becomes. I don’t know you, but I’m glad you’ve overcome illness and found happiness in our beautiful country. Thanks for sharing. ❤

The streets and sidewalks are the same in Santa Fe

Si beautiful video , thank you very much 🌴😀🙏🦋

Great Video muchas gracias for sharing so honest and clear

Loved your video!!!! Good for you!!! God bless you!!!👍

I recently made a new friend as a content creator here on KZbin! One of my subscribers and I connected through comments and hit it off. We finally got to meet bc we live in the same county! We had a really deep spiritual connection. In fact, she is one of YOUR subscribers too! @lifeinthewyldewest

PS you are such a warm human someone I would choose.

I love your intro Kris! Well done. I love my alone time….ever since I was little inside my closet with my flashlight. You are a wise person and I love that I can sit here WITH you. I appreciate you. We are very similar people. I’ve used my wedding china since day one. The chips are love and a life well lived. Oh and there are so many chips. ❤❤

Ya that sounds like good ol'e American corporations ,while you lie on your death bed let's just put the nail in the coffin and fire her for being sick.God bless you and your family and best of luck

❤

Wonderful video, thank you ❤❤❤

Hello, you must be fine. I visited your channel and analyzed some videos. Your video quality is very good but your channel is not SEO done Properly, due to which channel growth is very low. Also, your video is not SEO done with rank tag SEO score is poor. In short, SEO optimizes your channel properly, and every video needs to be SEO which will promote your channel and double the video views

I cannot wait to move to Mexico, I’m Mexican by birth, my mother gave me my US citizenship, but I yearn to go back to my roots. After living in the US for most of my life, I want to go back and feel Mexico’s earth beneath my feet. I cried while I was watching this because it shows how the simple life can be so rewarding .

Thank you for sharing, so inspiring. So beautiful!!🎉❤Many blessings, so much love

I completely feel the same way. Just not sure what my channel will be. Thank you

Glad for your New Beginning❤

I LOVE ALL OF THIS!!!

I love your story, but forgive me Sayulita is not a village anymore

Mr Wonderful and his ilk will work you until you drop. Toxic hustle culture has been around for a lot longer than the term, and it literally kills people. Besides, the entire premise is a lie. You are useless to the corporation after 50, period. No same person wants to die behind their desk.

Loved the video!!

Hi Kris! I LOVED this video because I YEARN for time alone. I used to have more time alone at home. I often spend time OUTSIDE of the house alone, but I absolutely crave that time at home. I’m living this vicariously through you today. Deep sigh. ❤

I get it! Introverts dream. I can relate with the people pleasing part too. Yes! Alone is such a peaceful place to be. At least for me too. Your town is beautiful! Ordinary extraordinary is one of my favorites things or I will call them little BIG things! I also love to sit on the floor. I will go to a family gathering and sit on the floor and people will say, here is a chair and I say, no thank you, I prefer it here! That darn should word. I’m also recovering from the “I’m sorry” phrase. Sorry for things not even in my control! I have learned to say, thank you for understanding. Now I say that a lot. It feels so good to pause and not say I’m sorry. Lots of love Kris and thank you for this inspiring video.

I loved everything about this! I started taking myself out (in my house) whenever my husband was away on business trips. The first time I did it for us, he looked at me strangely. But then he realized our date nights in were way better than any date night out because we weren't competing with noisy restaurants, could linger as long as we liked, and he could have 3 martinis if he wanted, because we weren't driving. While we eat home a lot, finding to romanticize it single or as a couple has been great. Thank you for giving it a name.❤

Yes! YT is awesome. I have just started less than a month ago, and I LOVE it. 🥰
