You are literally my new favorite comfort UA-camr. As someone from NYC whose looking to move out there, I’m loving your journey, thank you for sharing!
omg this is such a beautiful compliment!! i'm so grateful! i say come for 1-2 weeks if you can!! being from nyc it will feel like HOME with less stress, more green and much better weather.
I am new to your channel and I’ve watched several UA-cam videos and I have to say that I love tuning in. 💛 You give me LIFE!!! 💯 Your energy is so contagious and very authentic. Thank you for being YOU 🤗
Arielle, your outlook is so refreshing! Thank you for the transforming and eye opening insights you share. You also shared in another vlog that you do not show the people’s faces to protect their privacy and that is so very considerate! I did discover, for me, that the more you speak the language, the more you learn it. I was spending time studying and learning vocabulary, but I found that just diving in and speaking the language significantly expedites your learning. All the best in Mexico 🇲🇽 🎉🎉
thank you!!! yeah definitely having more Mexican friends have been helping me learn the new slang and dialect better here. i also just picked up a spanish book and i'm excited to start reading in spanish as well! small but good changes but i noticed that i have to stop trying to rush the process. i want to be fluent so bad that it's making me a little irritated with the learning process when i think i should just keep practicing everyday and focusing on getting better. thank you so much for this comment!!
@@ArielleSimone a book is a great idea!! Oh yesss the slangs and everyday words 😁 You are absolutely right; just keep swim…practicing! Think of it like a muscle or a new hobby; bike riding for eg, the more you practice the better you get. If you can find a good way to “game-ify” the process, that would be great as well. Maybe use Duolingo or going to a class that is only in Spanish.
Hi there - Happy you're back!! Congratulations on moving into the NEW space. Love the pros & cons list, definitely gave me some things to consider before my journey to Mexico. Happy papa is doing okay after injuring himself. Keep smiling bright, your energy is infectious!
iruly is one of the best cities i've ever been to and hands down the best city i've ever lived! the weather is going to be so perfect next month too :)
Your perspective on life in CDMX or change or obstacles or even the holes in the street is great. Even the negatives weren’t that bad by your presentation. That energy is appreciated and will help me and others adapt if we make the move. Thank you. 👍🏾
thank you so much for this comment!! i really wanted to get to the knitty gritty about living abroad bcz it isn't always rainbows. i appreciate you for noticing that!!
exactly!!!! thank you! it's been about 4 months now and i have a few more pros and cons but we'll def save her for later! i think i got the bulk of it tho lolll
a few of my friends heard the same thing on NPR, did they say mexico city? cz i'm here now and the water is pretty good! i haven't heard of any direct issues here with any of my local friends or restaurants yet. thankfully!!
Mexico is running out of water its bound to happen this summer. There are trucks that bring water to buildings and poor people have to line up to fill their jugs. Rich Gringos fill their pools and pretend its not happening
My Sister, I’m So Happy You Made It Out Of This NYC, It Is Very Draining, I’m Currently In Search For A Entry Level Remote Job So I Can Take This Beautiful/Life Changing Step Too. As A Fellow Brooklyn Native I Can Relate With Everything Your Saying,My Heart Swells With Joy Seeing My Sisters Feeling Safe,Happy & Stress-less. I Wishing You Long Life, Good Health & And A Abundance Of Love ❤️ (Your Inspiring Me To Make Content Once I Get Out Of Here Too 😃)
awww thank you so so much!!!! NYC can be way too taxing on us in so many ways and the energy there now is shifting more than ever. i say keep looking for a remote gig! there's tons of resources on tik tok on ;entry level remote' jobs! also depending on the country you go to 10-15k can last you about 6-7 months minimum so you do have time to keep looking for more work :)
i love costa rica sooo much!! and now that i live here in mexico i'm realizing how different every city is! i'm in mexico city now, i loved tulum + cancun but i'm about to visit oaxaca (puerto escondido) for my birthday!! i'm realizing it really depends on the type of vibe you want :)
@@foggycraw6758 there's been a lot of talk of rainy season starting earlier this year and i hope that's the case! it's been raining a little bit lately :)
the williamsburg-y areas are definitely la condesa, roma norte and reforma! very very beautiful areas with nice restaurants, galleries, parks, and museums. you are close to all of the best spots and events just like williamsburg/bedstuy. as for the soho/5th avenue vibe that's more high end stores (a little boring to me) but that area is polanco!
i've been thinking about health insurance here but recently i got sick twice and both times the doctor came to my home, gave me an IV drip and medicine and it was about $60-75 USD :)
Are there spaces restaurants, parks etc where you’ve not gotten a racist vibe ? I’m headed there soon with my family including two small kids. Your videos are great and your energy is contagious !
i see a lot of families here!! i def think it's super family friendly!! i have yet to experience any racist vibes at all. they actually love Black people so much! but i will say there is some tourist racism (if that's a thing) like if you don't speak the language they tend to charge you a little bit more in certain places. it's called the 'Gringo Tax'. Learning the language helps but sometimes it's hard to avoid having to pay more :(
Omg that happened to me to with the sheets my hair oil messed up the pillow case and I’m like baby pillow case not $500usd so please don’t play in my face and then trying to charge me additional cleaning fees the wild over there with that and yeah I felt you on the kinda racist mainly felt that way in Polanco though
I loved this video!!! How are you receiving income? I ask because I’ve been researching Australian working visa sponsorships and that has been a challenge. But if I’m honest with myself, I don’t want to “work.” I don’t dream of labor 😂.
i say that all of the time and for a while i was like am i lazy? but i just do not dream to work. it's not something i fantasize about. now building community and hosting events? yes. things that don't feel like work. but to answer your question i had 15k saved up which can last you about 6-7 months here and i have a membership program on my website where i post weekly wellness blogs around emotional eating, i sell gut health e-books, have nutrition clients and influencer partnerships. i'm starting a patreon pretty soon to post recipe + cooking videos :)
@@ArielleSimone Being fulfilled and doing it all 👏🏽👏🏽! I love that! As NYers the hustle is innate so peace and ease feels like laziness but we’re far from it. I “work” in media and entertainment, so like you I would love to create or just BE for income abroad. Thank you for showing me it is possible! 🫶🏽
@@CheRhys you get the vibessss!! that hustle energy is just IN us and it's amazing but it can be anxiety inducing sometimes! and it's totally possible for you girl! thank you!!!

Sis i heard on NPR that the water is running out in Mexico City?? Will this affect where you are?
a few of my friends heard the same thing on NPR, did they say mexico city? cz i'm here now and the water is pretty good! i haven't heard of any direct issues here with any of my local friends or restaurants yet. thankfully!!
@@ArielleSimone yes google it sis!
Mexico is running out of water its bound to happen this summer. There are trucks that bring water to buildings and poor people have to line up to fill their jugs. Rich Gringos fill their pools and pretend its not happening
Gurl.. you remind me of my homegirls that I haven’t seen in forever!
awww this is such a compliment! i love when ppl remind me of old friends!
My jaw dropped at the difference of medical bill prices omg.

@@ArielleSimone Thank You So Much For The Tips, Manifesting I Land A Calm Remote Job To Slip Through The Illusion Crack.
Really enjoyed this video :)
thank youuu!!
Side note Im actually am planning on visiting Mexico this summer just haven’t decided which area yet. Costa Rica is on that list too!
i love costa rica sooo much!! and now that i live here in mexico i'm realizing how different every city is! i'm in mexico city now, i loved tulum + cancun but i'm about to visit oaxaca (puerto escondido) for my birthday!! i'm realizing it really depends on the type of vibe you want :)
Skip Mexico this summer. The city is low on water
@@foggycraw6758 there's been a lot of talk of rainy season starting earlier this year and i hope that's the case! it's been raining a little bit lately :)
What area of Mexico City was the market and the vibey “Williamsburg” areas you mentioned? Currently looking to relocate and Mexico City is on my list!
the williamsburg-y areas are definitely la condesa, roma norte and reforma! very very beautiful areas with nice restaurants, galleries, parks, and museums. you are close to all of the best spots and events just like williamsburg/bedstuy. as for the soho/5th avenue vibe that's more high end stores (a little boring to me) but that area is polanco!
@@ArielleSimone thanks for replying 🥰. Your videos have been so informative Love your energy💕
Do you have healthcare out there? How has adjusting been?
i've been thinking about health insurance here but recently i got sick twice and both times the doctor came to my home, gave me an IV drip and medicine and it was about $60-75 USD :)
