Great video, Mark and Gina! Just got back from Puebla yesterday and this was the first video I saw this morning. Puebla's one of those places that'll surprise a lot of people if they give it a look. Wonderful, modern, clean (but that ash haha...) That whole area is just amazing. It should be higher on a lot of expat lists, to be honest. Our niece is a medical student at UDLAP Cholula and we got a private tour this trip. Absolutely jaw-dropping facility. We renewed our residency for 3 more years this trip. Our next step is the actual move once a few things are completed here in the States. Then we're Atlixco-bound. Keep up the incredible work y'all!! You help me feel "at home" in the meantime.
I can definitely see why you chose Atlixco. What a quaint and charming little town that is just outside of Puebla. We we enamored with the beauty of it when we traveled there. There definitely is a small town charm to Puebla while it is a major city in Mexico. Glad you are enjoying the videos.
Wow! Expensive. More than house in Toronto! Converted to Canadian, it's $4,800😮 more than my net income. GINA Girl, your new job and You Tube must pay really good 😅
It's not a typical rent, but almost half of that is Airbnb and it's in the heart of the city. The fees that Airbnb charge both the host and the guest can get exorbitant. But as we are traveling the country in one, two or three month stays, our options are very limited. We want a house to get the true feel of a city as if we are living there full time. This plan is helping us to narrow the list of our final destination here in Mexico.
I really like Puebla too! The altitude takes time to adjust to! I live in Toluca which is at 8700 and the altitude definitely makes a difference! The people never share the sidewalk here either ... it's frustrating. We won't leaf we're still here 🤪
I think the combination of the altitude and the ash seemed to have an effect for sure. wonderful city that was easy to walk and very colorful. Not sure where it will rank on the list though.
Glad you liked it! Puebla City is a great city to explore! Gina works hard to make these videos look slick and she appreciates it when people notice. Thanks.
The apartment looks really nice and you had wonderful views from the roof garden! Your private garden was pretty too. It's a shame about the ash, which was worse, that ash or the constant dust in SLP? I love the colorful buildings that were shown in your drone shot! A dad joke Mark, really? 😆
Welll...Yeah, I am one after all. LOL It really was a nice building and a great apartment. We did enjoy our stay here. I am thinking health wise, the ash had more effect than the dust in SLP. I, for some reason, did have a hard time maintaining any energy. When we walked, I was always lagging behind and that is not the normal case. I guess we will see when we start to walk some in Centro here in Queretaro if it is a change in health or a location issue. However, since we have returned to Queretaro, I have had a ravenous appetite that wasn't the case in Puebla. Weird, but true. Puebla was very colorful, very walkable, and a lot bigger than what we anticipated. Thanks Cindy.
Thanks. The water pressure was very good in this unit, but the plumbing will not accommodate toilet paper. After two years, it has become second nature to look for the waste can anyway. LOL
Oh yeah, we definitely have gotten over the excitement of the new adventure. We just got back to Queretaro and are taking a 6 month break from the tour to sort of catch our breath. We did modify our second half of the tour a little bit to cut out a few moves. But we will continue on to the end as we also would hate to miss what may be waiting for us. This country has been so magical that we are just waiting to see what is next. Thanks.
Remember, almost half of that is Airbnb. We inquired if we were to rent it on a lease and the price was between $1,500 and $2,000. With the building amenities, quality of the apartment and location, it would be worth that amount. Thanks
It is really our only option when we are staying in a city for one, two or three months and want to simulate the living there experience. If it was rent it would have been about half of that cost. Once we finish our tour and select home, we will stop the use of Airbnb and then we can stop paying the exorbitant rates. Thanks.

Still crazy expensive. Hope you find your city. MX is out the question for m😢e@@GringosRUs

very sophisticated video skills👍🏼 and the apartment and city look awesome!

@ i maybe missed it but what was the square meters for that apartment?
@@maximolacerante8808 Not sure exactly, but I would guess around 120 or so. Lots of room.

Great video! How was your water pressure and were you able to flush toilet paper?
Thanks. The water pressure was very good in this unit, but the plumbing will not accommodate toilet paper. After two years, it has become second nature to look for the waste can anyway. LOL
Do you ever get tired of moving around? Do you think you guys could just settle on a place you’ve already been without going to the rest of them?

Yeah, that is totally ridiculous to pay that price.
I agree. @@machellec5721
MUsic is not needed. I mute it. It destroys your podcasts
Volume, like close captioning and subtitles, can be utilized to each viewers preference. Thanks for watching.
Gina your hair is so cute!
Thank you! 💕~Gina
Guys ....you spend so much in rent for nothing anyway if you happy ..
