She is very logical and practical, and yet she really cares about people NOT making super expensive mistakes. This is why I miss living in NYC so much. You meet so many truly decent human beings who...while not friendly...and still truly decent, helpful human being with a well-calibrated moral compass. She did NOT have to say what she said...or go to the lengths she went to for total strangers...but she chose to do so anyway. Extraordinary interview by a humble, yet impressive woman.

Get a furnished rental. Do you need therapy? Do that and don’t expect untreated mental illness to vanish with a change of scenery! Such a great interview for those considering moving to Mexico ❤

Dawn was fantastic!!!! I too am from Brooklyn but moved almost as soon as I graduated from HS. I spent 30 years in the US military, worked with the State Department, worked at a major US university, worked the corporate world, been to 50+ countries over the years and lived in 6, and yes, at my age, Mexico continues to lure me. I’ve only been to Cancun once, but being an amateur historian, I want to explore more of Mesoamerica. Central Mexico sounds like a good base of operation, thanks to Dawn. My late wife was an Indian national who had that same travel bug as me. Don’t be surprised if I visit Queretaro for a brief stay thanks to this video.

I have been reviewing for the last two years plus many KZbin videos living in Spain and Mexico. This was one of the top best videos I have come across with real good honest advice about moving to Mexico. Dawn is charming, very intelligent, a world traveler, educated, classy but more than anything, she is down right real! And as a single woman myself, in my 60's Mexican American, I appreciate Dawn giving real advice. Many You Tubers say all the wonderful things about living in Mexico but lack real true information. Louie asked good questions and Dawn was open and honest with her answers. I truly appreciate her wisdom and hope to be Louie and Dawn's neighbor and friend when I move there! I'm 65 and ready to move out of the USA! Congratulations to your 1st interview! I will now be a true follower and share your videos with friends. Dawn, I love your house! We have the same taste, gf! Your colors you choose, yellow, gray and black look so chic! Love it! Thank you!

Great interview, she has a very good vibe! I can relate to everything she is talking about regarding securing home ownership in Mexico. I bought a custom-built home in Merida in 2021. She is definitely correct when she says it is best to lock in prices because the homes are constantly going up. Also, flying has gotten old to me too. I am 59 and I have decreased my flying to every other year. Lol!

You know it’s a great weather location (similar to here in Mexico City) because there are no air conditioning units in every room like in Merida.
