Jose I would love to do a video with you. One for my channel and we can do one on yours as well 😃 let me know.

[@LESHAUNWILL]

For sure !!!! I am in the states right now trying to sell my truck but I will be back in a week or so and I’ll reach out on Fb so we can plan dates. 🤗 yaaay so excited. I’ve loved your channel for so long.

[@justintrud9800]

Great interview. I had an opportunity to meet Erlin when visiting Merida. I stopped at the Starbucks and there was a man who started following and harassing me. Erlin protected me. He walked me to the cab and made sure that the guy didn’t harass me. The guy continued and tried to convince Erlin that he knew me and that we were together. I was very scared. I will be forever grateful for his kindness.

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

Wow! That is a great story! The Great Erlin saves the day! Thanks for sharing!

[@angeebb3080]

I am black American and my husband is from Africa. Visited Los Cabos about a year ago and my husband can't stop talking about how beautiful and how much he enjoyed the country. He had no interest in visiting at first but now he can't wait to go back to visit. Beautiful people and culture but can't see myself living in Mexico too hot.

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@nolaonyt]

If you and your husband are interested, check out Guadalajara, Guanajuato, Querétaro, Puebla.. These areas are beautiful and not hot. Merida is beautiful and the people are amazing, but sizzling hot-lol

[@travelerawakenings8477]

Not all Mexico is hot. Oaxaca, Queretaro, Mexico city, and many more other cities have a great climate that doesn't go higher than 80 during summer time. I live in Merida right niw, but I can not deal with the heat. It's way too much my heart can handle. But, I am not moving out of Mexico. I am moving out of Merida to Queretaro or Mexico city, where the climate is very nice all year. I believe Merida is on the top list about hot places in Mexico. If you and your husband really like Mexico, do your research. There are many other cities in Mexico with great climate all year. Before moving to Mexico, I visited 14 countries in Africa. I chose Mexico for many reasons. I still love Africa. I will still go visit and probably one day live there part time, but Mexico will be my home.

[@theodethomasa6358]

I'm in the Philippines. The climate in Mexico would be about the same. Growing up in North America, I hated the cold.

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

You already know it!

[@theodethomasa6358]

I'm a disabled 100% VA-rated military retired MSGT. With my retired pay ($1800), my SS ($875), and my 100% VA-rated pay ($5000) monthly, I don't need to worry about an income. With today's exchange rate that is close to 131920.28 Mexican Pesos. If things go bad in the Philippines because of China going after Taiwan, I'll run to Mexico! The only problem I expect is to sell my home and ship my cars and household goods. This brings up the question of the RAM I've seen you driving, did you pay any import tax to the Mexican customs or did you buy it in Mexico?

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

That is awesome! Hope nothing happens over there! I bought the RAM over here. Importing anything is a major hastle

[@theodethomasa6358]

@@JoseArteagaTravels Imports are indeed a major hassle, but it beats buying new cars when mine are already paid for and I've made sure to keep them in top condition. I could sell them at almost the same price I paid when they were new. I don't believe there are none of these in the Americas! A Toyota Fortuner SUV, 4-wheel drive, and a Hyundai Starex van. Both have automatic transmission and 4-cylinder diesel engines.

I see the price of lots go up after this video, because he said, " they ONLY ask for 70k". This is lot of money for the Mexican market. Most Mexican here cannot afford that. This is why houses and lands keep going up in Merida, because of Expats making comments like this. Thry use the work cm" cheap" here. Right now, Merida has become one of the most expensive cities in Mexico

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

Again if you watch my videos you will see that most of the people buying and moving to Merida are other Mexicans. Also if you watch my videos and know the actual market you will quickly see there are still many homes and land priced below costs. There are many variables at play here and the reality is that if you are afraid of prices continuing to go up then just plan accordingly and you will be fine.

Thank you so much for this I just lost my van and last year lost my RV. So many losses and really no gains. Going in a big ass circle..im on every housing waiting list since the pandemic ...I'm tired of getting hopeful 😢 only to loose or see no progression. Loosing my van has been bitter sweet ..as I have been watching your videos for the last 2 months ..When you said if I was in the states I'd be a bum sleeping in my car ...I giggled and relate ..and as a woman safety is a real concern ...as I been doing van life aka digital nomad ..Jose I have sOOO many questions and I'm so tempted to hop on a grayhound with just a little over 300 yet I don't even have my passport.can you help me leave California and get to paradise 😂 ...no but seriously. . I'm trying to be not so impulsive but what's a girl to do ..and going to skid row out in LA is an absolute No for me ! The " "help " out here is nothing more than an illusion. And as a independent woman who works for myself all I need is affordable living ...I am bilingual. Do no issues there. Got the gift of Gab ..I believe I'd do quiet well in Mexico ...love the food .love the culture ...I even flip my tortillas on the stove 😂😂😂 lol I have to get there ASAP! I'm praying that God will help me find my way to meet you and the Mrs ❤ im trying to stay optimistic watching your videos really help and I do want to buy a consultation with you but I'm trying to save for my ticket ..lol bruhhh lol . But on a serious note this whole interview is helping me ..today I'll visit the post office to ask about passport .

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

My advice to you since you are in Southern California and only have a few bucks to your name is to go to San Diego and get a job there and then find housing in Tijuana and basically travel back and fourth everyday. Many people do this and have been doing this for years/decades. You can even cross legally back and fourth with just some basic ID until you get your passport. That would be my advice to you after learning so much while living out here in Mexico. You can find affordable housing in Tijuana and Make US Dollars in San Diego and that should help you get back on your feet in no time. You can use the land bridge to walk back and fourth in case you do not have a vehicle. Don't lose hope. It's not going to be easy. It wasn't for me either, but you can do it and get yourself out of the hole you are in and once you have your passport and some money saved up you can go and explore other parts of Mexico. Hope this information helps. Good luck with everything! You can do it!

[@Exoticaworship7]

​@@JoseArteagaTravelsthank you so much Jose!🎉 I was in San Diego with my RV last year ..so I'm familiar with the area ..I had actually network with a few folks who worked in San Diego and yet had property in Mexico , in fact I met a women in the 99 c store if San Diego who her and hubby has just bout a house and was working on renting out rooms if I could only find her number ..bruh ....😂😭 ..any who always help me feel better your Sense of humor ..I like that you can laugh at yourself if no one else in the room is laughing! That's how life should be ..I know there are others who do what you do right here at the YT but no one makes feel like the possibilities are endless the whole knowing you can go to somewhere else and not just feel but be a millionaire in another country is always so inspiring ..after all what's a millionaire any way ... ?? Some one who basically can #1 afford a quality life ! With a little bit of gllitz and glam if they so chose ! Not every millionaire is all shiny and show offy but I had been around a few enough to know they ALL have one thing in common thier quality of life live in a safer area , access to medical , dentistry , schools and education, even better access to a potential good partnerc and over all good mental spiritual and physical well being..... Lord knows I want THAT ! So I ain't gave up just yet ! Yes I get sad , angry , and ask GOD why sometimes . But today I'll trust that all things are working out in my favor....and since it was back history month 😅 I'll leave with this quote .., Sometimes you dint have to see the whole staircase to know exactly what's ahead just take one step at a time and you'll eventually reach destiny" -Dr. Martin Luther King 🤎🖤🤍

However always remember not to bring that US colonial attitude called the ugly american that I see now and then in asia, because the police are not like in the states. I saw an american get beaten up and dragged out of a bar lik a dog in thailand by the police. I wanted to assist being an American myself, but the thais held me back and told me the police would give me the same treatment. This also applies in mexico. Be respectful of the people and culture like you guys are doing and you will live well and safe. I know you understand Jose, because you speak the language and understand the culture, that's one reason I enjoy your videos that are honest, helpful and educational. I"m just adding my experiences of my travels to support your videos. Felicidad y buen salud.

I totally agree. As the saying goes.... F around and find out 😅 It always makes me happy to see Justice being served to entitled Americans who think they can do whatever they want in Foreign Countries. Thanks for sharing!

I’ve never heard that Mexican schools are better?! I’ve always read differently. That’s not true at all. However, I’m sure some inner city schools could be equivalent to another shitty school system.

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

Again it all depends on what you the parent want your child to be taught. In my opinion the schools in Mexico are much better as they promote critical thinking instead of only indoctrination into the system

Ok so why would the pandemic make people move to Mexico?? The pandemic was the entire world!People were trying to get back to their countries because boarders were closing. People are now fleeing uS is because the fear of Trump getting re-elected and you should be scared. I’m scared and why I’m looking and because uS is too expensive.

[@JoseArteagaTravels]

There was more Freedom in Mexico thats why many people are flocking to Mexico these days
