We're now selling almost everything we own on the East coast. We're planning a six month stop in Austin, TX, on our way to our final destination: Yucatán, Mexico.

The financial leverage of USD is great there, and the last few years have led me to believe I'm not a good culture-fit in the US.




That's very interesting. What made you choose Yucatán specifically in comparison to other parts of Mexico or Central/South America?


My partner has family in the area, and the infrastructure (ISPs, city-wide wifi, power grid) is supposedly some of the best in Mexico (which would probably make it on-par or better to where I currently sit.)

Tourist and expat investments have brought money to the area, and the city we're headed to is considered notably safe for North America generally, let alone Mexico.


Do you have any concerns about Crime and corruption on the rise in Mexico?


Not really.


Doesn't the Yucatan have a similar topography to Florida? Are you concerned at all about sea level rise?
