  • For a long time, Ciudad de Mexico or Districto Federal has been overlooked and taken for granted as a destination for travelers. Beyond that, CDMX might be the perfect inexpensive base for digital nomads. Mexico City might be the most affordable major city in the Western Hemisphere.. I LOVE IT...

    Mexico City is definitely among my top 3 cosmopolitan North American cities along with NYC and Chicago. It’s easy & affordable to patronize the best high end restaurants/hotels, check out amazing museums and shop for peso priced designer items. The parks/waterparks/six flags are top notch and I’ve received nothing but love from Mexicans… in Mexico. Be sure to take a day trip to Teotihuacan and Tolantongo. Definitely looking forward to buying property in CDMX or Riviera Maya. Also don’t sleep on Guadalajara/Lake Chapala area, it’s like MC with more authentic culture. Gotta love the 20-30 dollar flights all over the country.

    I disagree about CDMX being a spot people skip over 0:48 It seems like all I’ve been hearing about in recent years is CDMX,Tulum,Merida, San Miguel de Allende. But CDMX is definitely on Americans radar. There’s a bunch of CNBC reports about it.
    Thanks for your take on CDMX a bunch of travel UA-camrs have been going there and they haven’t talked about that aspect of seeing streetwalkers. I didn’t even know they had that. I’ve heard about it in DR but not CDMX.

I'll give it a month to let her settle in, and I'll ask for more info. On her first day, she did a little laugh when I said buen fin de semana (have a good weekend) to a co-worker. I don't know if it happened to you, but a good friend was visiting his daughter in CMDX. He had altitude sickness for a week. My co-worker mentioned being nauseous for a few days on her last visit to CDMX but felt better later that week.
      She perked up about me thinking about retiring to Panama City and using that as a jump-off spot to visit Columbia and Brazil, along with trips to Mexico City. Speaking of Columbia, two friends of mine have traveled there in the last several months. One lives in California and discovered the language bars or clubs and met some dynamite women. Another friend is a digital nomad and just spent a month in Columbia. We're meeting next week so I can de-brief him on his stay. I might do a ten-day vacation, starting in Panama City, then Columbia for a few, and finishing in Mexico City for a couple of days before returning to the Windy City.
