Mexico is magical. I don't know what it is. I wake up happy in Mexico. I lived in Europe and I never felt welcomed. When I am in Mexico it's like, people are glad I'm there.
You are coming from a very toxic society and people are normalizing it. It will not change. Mexico is such a lovely place. I'm really glad to see African Americans realizing that the world is big and its bigger than the USA. Enjoy guys!
Absolutely... Thanks for watching !
Mexico is amazing! 🥰
People don't realize how our Mexican culture is like no other. No other place in the world like it. At least in my opinion.
We’re calling her Aunty Nikki from now on. She imparted so much wisdom. God bless her! ✨
Love it!
Today I foolishly placed my cellphone in my grocery cart because I didn't have my purse. This was here in Merida. I had a feeling I would forget about it. I did. I didnt realize that I didn't have my phone until 2 hours after I got home. I went back to the grocery store and asked if someone turned in a cell phone. At first they told me no. I went outside and just stared at the returned shopping carts. In a few minutes, the lady at the customer service came outside and told me that someone did turn in a cell phone. I was pretty fortunate that someone returned my phone. People here in Mérida are so awesome!
The people here ROCK!!! Glad u got your phone back!
This video was an absolute joy to watch. Niki is a jewel…so well spoken. I can feel the energy of joy from her. And Cartess, this channel is a gift to those of us who want to make this move. I will be full retirement age in April 2023 and I’m ready to get out of the States. I will be contacting you for guidance. Going to start working on getting rid of all of my “stuff” now.
Appreciate you watching.
Suerte‼️🍻👍🏻🇲🇽 que sea tu mejor decisión 😉
@@mariamar2114 Gracias por tus amables y alentadoras palabras. ❤️
Please keep the Nikki Chronicles going. This has been a delightful journey. Congratulations! *standing ovation*
I'll keep it going .. Thanks for watching. You're appreciated!
Nikki I really understand when you say "people don't have time for you " that's how I'm feeling now. See you in Mérida!!
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Getting out of the US is definitely the first step to peace of mind. So happy for you! We have found that making friends outside of the US is easier. After a few weeks in Portugal, I have folks who have been more helpful and caring than most of the folks who crossed my path in the states. Cartess is the man if you want the inside scoop on Mérida.
It's amazing how that works... My experience has been the same. I haven't forgot ya'll. I'll be ready very soon! Thanks for being patient with me.
I'm so happy for you Nikki!!! I'm coming to merida too!
Thanks for watching.
Me too
Me too!
Since your first interview with Ms. Niki, I knew she was a friend in my head. I plan on moving to Merida maybe sooner than I think. I would love to meet her and become part of her Merida family. I love her energy 💜
Go for it! She'll be here waiting :)
Omg me too!!! She would definitely be my hang out sista!!
AMAZING!! I'll take her up on the invitation to rent a room from her while looking for a residence. She's a vibe!
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
So inspiring to hear this sister talk about her emotional experience and how well she was treated by the locals. I need to see more of her! Thank you both for doing what you do for us.
Muchas gracias.
I will be arriving Saturday ☺.
Welcome!! You'll love it
I decided I have to leave an unhealthy but long marriage. I knew almost immediately that I had to go to Mexico but I didn't understand why. Ive never been! Listening to Niki here suddenly cleared away my self doubt and fear. I'm in tears!! Thank you for helping me know that this is God guiding me...and it's about damn time I let him! Thank you so much ☺️
Mexico is a great place for a reset. I'm glad you found the content helpful.
@MoveAbroadandThrive thanks!! I've been binging your channel since I found it. I love the perspective...you answer questions a lot of us have who might not have as much as other expats, yanno? Much appreciated 🙏
I want to see when everyone was dancing!!
Congrats Niki between you two I'm going to come down to visit and look for 2 properties 👋👋👋👋 congrats
That sounds like a plan!
Welcome Nikki, I'm sure you will love it here in Merida. I will also be 70 years old in July along with my husband who will also be 70. We have been here for six months and we love it here. I also lost ten pounds in the first 7 days of being here. Also I have gained it back because I have found a lot of my foods I ate in the states lol. Hopefully we meet one day.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I enjoyed your conversation with Niki. I love what she said that there, "it's people before money, not money before people."♥
"You've got friends now." Love this. I look forward to this.
This brought me to tears! Such a beautiful sista and truly Reina! I hope we get to meet her when we make the move. This solidifies our decision! I'm riding your coattail sis and can't wait to meet you!!
Thank u for watching
Happy, happy people... just wonderful!
The queen made some significant points: Family, friendly people, general happiness coming from such a awesome country. I am planning on living in Nayarit on the coast but I 100% relate to everything you both were saying. Sending you both much love and thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Thanks for watching!!
I am lucky enough to live in a farming area where I can get locally produced meats and produce, it makes such a difference! Also There was a you tuber who left Arizona only being able to eat maybe 3 or 4 different individual foods and she felt bad all the time. Moving to Mexico she was able to really expand the foods she can eat and she is feeling so much better!
First time i hear an american person talking about freedom. She is a very sensitive lady, I like her already, she is just like me. If i get to move in Merida when i go to Mexico, i will like to have a friend like her.
Nikki acts like she entered the pearly gates of heaven :)
Amen :)
Yessss.... Thank you for our supportive daddys
I left Maryland [PGC] abt 2 1/2 years ago to move to Florida; now I am traveling all over the west coast thru house and pet sitting. I just received my passport a few weeks ago...so I will be visiting Merida and can't wait to meet both of you.
Come on through :)
I am so happy for her.. her journey empowers me to put one foot in front of the other.. I started to get a little scared thinking am I crazy?? Thinking after my daughter leaves for college and I would leave for Merida within two weeks later. Cartess here I come! I am definitely gone to reach out to you.. The way you blessed Nikki was no short of amazing! If you did it for her..I know you can do it for me!! I am calling things that be not as though they were..God bless you!!
Yes... Just get started. U got this!
@@MoveAbroadandThrive I just purchased the program. Trying to figure out how it works now??
@@sabrinawilks1258 Hi! I saw your order come through. Thanks a million. Login details were sent to your email. Also, I e-mailed you a seperate message lastnight around 3 a.m. to schedule your phone consult. Check your spam. If you don't see it, shoot me a message: cartess@cartessross.com (it's possible the email you used in the order form was missing a letter. If u didn't get a receipt that's probably the issue. We send messages/login details to the address you included in your order form).
That watermelon 🍉 with seeds gave me life!
Same!!
Wonderful video. Love both your stories. My wife and I just bought a house in Centro in preparation for an eventual retirement. Go there now every other month. I understand the “peace” Niki describes and desire to return. My life has been busy and pressure filled for too many years. It would be an honor to meet both of you in the near future. My wife, Sylvia loves to cook but the local restaurants are great, too. Life needs to be enjoyed and shared. God bless you all.
Absolutely!!! Hit me up when you're back in town. Perhaps we can meet up for a lunch or listen to live music at a cantina!
I’m so glad Black Americans feel so good living in and visiting Mexico. It’s not perfect but the culture of caring and looking out for friends and strangers is what makes Mexico so awesome. I hope to move there when I retire so I can relax ☺️
Props to Cartess for another informative and entertaining video, and for having the good sense to interview Niki again. She's a natural on camera.
Thank u for watching
Ya made me teary eyed…if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be here…I will be reaching out to him in a few weeks for sure…thank you for your time and energy
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I love your videos and awe man I]m feeling Niki spirit. I work from home and I am so over the U.S. I have four young men and I worry and stress everyday because they are targets and just not safe. I live in Jacksonville FL and it is black on black crime. Young black {melanated } men need to be protected. Yes, rent is stressful. I pay almost 1600.00 a month I love all of your videos!!!
Come on through young lady... I lived there at Amelia Island for 5 years. I know how thangs are popping off in Jacksonville. Come take a visit here in Merida. You'll love it.
I know this post is 7 months old. I love in Jacksonville fl predominantly near the beaches and know all to well what your speaking. I've been considering a move to Mexico in 2yrs once my son graduates highschool.
I can't wait to book a room. Great interview!
Please do!
Omg thank you for the invite can't wait for you to return. Senior ready to leave 🤪
COME ON!! NIKI🇲🇽❤🙏
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Such a great story. I pray this is me one day soon.
Welcome to Mexico
God be the glory! All good things come from Him. Blessings to you both.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Yass Niki, watermelon with seeds. Thank you for sharing your excitement. Looking forward to following your journey.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Had to pause video...Niki, Mexican men are very attractive 😍 Masculine but so well mannered and they know how to make a woman feel admired. I'm so happy for you even though I don't know you 🤗. I have dear friends In Valladolid and can recommend their Airbnb for a nice weekend or day trip for you and your mom. Lovely colonial city w about 50k people 2.5-3 hrs east of Merida.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I'm thinking of moving to MX full or part time when I retire. I'm concerned that the more people move there, the more it will become like America; meaning they will build and expand to support the growing population. Will they lose farm land to development too? Just a thought.
This could be the case, but I doubt we will see this in our life time. Mexico is an amazing country; however, Mexico still faces its own problems and not everyone is willing to deal with that. But hey… prices are getting so nuts in the USA… who knows
Keep in mind, while Merida may get over populated, there are suburbs outside of Merida where things are even more affordable. I promise you there are many decades of options available to anyone ready to make that move. The opportunity ain't going away anytime soon.
Ann Thomas im glad u mentioned that cause i have always told ppl if u truly want to be happy dont seclude urself in ex-pat communities cause u still keep the united slaves corporation of muriKKKa mentality so let muriKKKa's indoctrination and brainwashing go be happy step into the culture,celebrate REAL holidays as a matter of fact the 2 most respected and most celebrated holidays in Mexico are coming up September 15-16 Dia De La Independencia and November 2-3 Dia De Los Muertos-Day of the dead,i can guarantee you that u will enjoy the festivities just go out learn the culture,the ppl,the roots,the history and trust me if u do that its guaranteed u will see things different and ppl will see u different as a literal brother or sister,take my advice i know what im telling you and btw ur videos came up randomly and i watched a few so i subscribed.
Take care and may the 4 winds always be with and around you
Never too late!
I love it... Merida is a place I'm looking to relocate to in about 5 years and I would love to be able to come to your abode to come out to see. Thank you for what you do. Bot of you. ❤
Beautiful lady enjoy your new life. May you make great relationships full of empathy and pure Love for you@!!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing and good luck 🍀
Thanks for watching!
Love everything Niki said.
This video was just what I needed. The energy and the gratitude coming across here truly resonates with me. I have such admiration for you both in your journey there in Mexico (🇲🇽part of the Americas) though this video is in the past and you’ve each experienced life in Merida for a longer duration now it’s my hopes that it will all work out for you both for your individual and familial, spiritual, cultural and psychological needs (the peace, the calm, the nature, the land, the energy) and yes while being able to financially live a quality and thriving lifestyle there.
I don’t remember exactly how I came across any Merida UA-cam videos but one day I decided to watch one or two of them and one was of Tia Niki’s and her journey with her mom to Merida and settling. I was drawn in, I consumed more content from Tia Niki about Merida and her life there outside the US. There is still a strong pull for me to make it to Merida/Yucatan, more than any other beautiful location Mexico I’ve seen via UA-cam,
Merida has maintained a pull for me an energy perhaps
Love The Energy💗
Awesomeness
Hey Aunt Nikki I’m moving there with my two young sons and I will be happy to meet you and link up and would love to be around you. I love her energy she reminds me of one of relatives from years ago that’s no longer here. I would love to meet her.
Thank u for watching ... Come on down :)
Real talk? Y'all got me about to shout AND run off to Mérida!
I know you're right!
Come on... Let's do this :)
Niki needs a UA-cam channel! I ❤️ her energy!
WITH A LOT RESPECT MAMA.....IM VERY GLAD TO EAR....YOU...MAMA YOU CAN SEE ...THE DIFFERENT...FROM THERE TO HERE....BUT....THE MOST IMPORTANT ..ITS WHERE YOU ❤️ FELL FREE AND HAPPY TO LIFE MAMA.. GOD GLESS YOU ALWAYS
We have been taught to hate self and kind, all of our lives. It’s nice to see an fell love for a chance.
Amen. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Mexico e Buenos e? Si , amigos mass culturo.. viva Mexico.
Love this video. Nikki is wonderful.
Appreciate you watching.
I am in Merida. I just got here a few days ago. I would like to meet other Expats here, but I didn't meet anyone yet. I would love to meet people, make new friends. I know it will happen for sure
I’m glad I listen to this. I got 12 TVs, 10 cars, and 12 bedrooms. All this stuff. I’m just gonna let it all go! And take my ass to Mexico
Come on :)
But the question is, WHO wouldn't want to become instant friends with this lovely, sassy, sharp as a tack yet soft and soulful, beautiful in and out lady? ❤
I see you, reina! 👑
This interview was so inspiring, thank you both!
❤
You're welcome. Thanks for watching ❤❤❤
This video got me pumped up ready to move! I have alot of fears but this video helps so much! Nikki you explained everything so well and I hope you continue to make videos! Your personality is amazing! Thanks Cartess as well for this!!! You guys rock!!!! ❤❤❤
You're so welcome!
That's so beautiful. Very hay for your journey. Totally understand your feelings. You are now part of a real community- what life is all about. Value is in your experiences not only things. We are all your friends now Nikki and you too Mr. Cartess. Genuine happiness 🥰
Appreciate you watching.
Wowza, you two are beautiful and I’m so happy for you Nikki. Only up from here. Great stuff 🍹🇲🇽🌮
Awesomeness
May your life be now full of joy Queen! Good on you.
Thanks for watching
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Nikki’s energy is so Positive. I’m a fan of This channel I’ve watched Cartess for some time. I feel like you two are family. His energy is so warm. I’ve gone back and forth about wanting to move to Mexico. It’s hard to get my husband on board to move to another state let alone another country. When I showed him Nikki’s journey it sparked something in him. I think if we visit it would seem more like a possibility. His major concern is always a job. I explained we would need to create our own source of income and that for him seems far fetched but I’m not giving up. Keep the videos coming. 🙂
Thanks for watching and yes, keep working on hubby; he'll come around. Bring him for a visit and that'll surely do the trick. And he'll meet others like him and that'll ease his mind.
Everything that you are saying is so true. I love it.
Amen.
Awareness…and willingness to help and share - big difference! Respect!
I'm in MD pg too so I know exactly what you mean Niki that's bro your a real one hope to see y'all soon
We're waiting for you ... Come on through.
Wow thanks for that reminder
Congrats to you Nikki, thank you both for allowing us to go along with ya'll in the search. This has given me the motivation to make the move abroad to Merida. Getting my "ducks in a row".😊
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I'm a Maryland girl too and I wish I could come on down to Merida! It looks like a beautiful city, I might have to start planning my expat journey.
I'm laughing out loud because when I was a child, I use to also think if I swallowed a watermelon seed, would a watermelon grow inside my stomach! LOL. I love listening to you guys! Thank you!
You both were awesome! Looking forward to contacting you. Been here for a year. Now heading toward Merida. Thanks for the refreshing video....love
Thank u for watching! I think you'll love Merida. Cooler months will be here very soon.
So glad you are having a great time living in my country. I was brought to California when I was a kid and my sister moved back to Merida 20 years ago. Started a successful real estate business. I been traveling there once or twice a year and finally I’m convinced to go back. I love being there. But now I have to convince my parents to go back. God bless you and keep enjoying life there. Don’t forget to visit Progresso beach and all the cenotes in the area. 😀
Awwwww mannn. This is awesome. I’ll be looking to book that room this year Niki! You guys make a great team. I’ve been drawn by watching your videos this week. Thx for sharing
Thank u for watching
Thank you, Niki for your insights and confidence around your move to Mexico.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I love this series with her.. Cartess: you all rite
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I enjoyed this! Congratulations to her. Hope to meet both of you when I get there. 🙏🏾👍🏾
🥰🥰
Lovley ...
Niki is fabulous! I just love her facial expressions! She is so authentic! Love it! Thank you for sharing all these stories and information.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I wish you a good day and good health. Keep up the good work. 👍👍🌹🌹
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I love this interview. Sis you are adorable.... and you make some really good points!
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I have watched your channel before BUT this video blessed me! She addressed all my concerns. When I saw the thumb nail "Saved my life" I clicked on it. A lot of what she needed in her life is exactly what I need. Feel of community (people to have fellowship with), the fresh food (reduced inflammation in the body) etc.. God comes in 3's for me and you are the third. Your words are my final confirmation. I need to start by visiting Merida. You said..."Once you align with it and you feel that energy, it will begin to pull YOU! I believe this. I look forward to your bed and breakfast. I want to vacation but also see places that I could live. I will reach out to Cortez. God has blessed me through you both this morning!!😘
I love your channel and I love Nikki as well.. I am in the process of selling my home and moving to Merida Mexico..I am ready and excited and these videos are inspiration as well..I hope to meet you guys both one day and Nikki you are a reflection of me the words you spoke are excatly how I feel..You really spoke to my soul🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️💯💯💯
Good luck!! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Job well done Cartess. Wishing Nikki and her mom the best.
I appreciate it!!
Niki the Mexican gentleman was checking you out 😁
YES ... LOL
She really made this video so interesting. I know for a fact that I WILL be coming to visit, hopefully you're prices are reasonable so that I can get there sooner than later. Thanks for a great interview with an excited interviewee 😍 now we need Kim 😀 in these videos
Kim?? Huhhh? Hahahaha ... She don't like the camera
Oooh I would love that Nikki!! Yesssss do it girl!!
:)
Hi hun. I love how you're going to open your home 🏡 for the rest of us . Will certainly contact you when my husband and I are ready to go to Merida. God bless both of you, great team!! Love u both thanks for the encouragement 💓
Thank u soo much for watching and supporting :)
I’m happy for Auntie Niki….. following her footsteps I’m already buying in Merida from US 😊 thank you for this information very helpful ❤
I live in Dallas Texas where we have thousands of Mexican people from all over. I get the same experience. Matter fact my boyfriend is Mexican and I'm. Afro-American. So I get a chance to learn all the cultures right where I'm at. But I still would like to experience another Spanish country.
Amazing video Cartess! A true asset for anyone making the move! Nikki, you are truly awesome and I think this will be a beautiful and amazing next chapter in life…congratulations on making the move!
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
Hey Y'all.. Awesome video, Congratulations Niki on your new journey and home in Mexico 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
@@MoveAbroadandThrive You're welcome 😊
I love this interview.
Thank u!
Bless her
Appreciate you watching.
Enjoyed this video ❤
Loved the video - coming in September for a visit with dental work in mind. I saw where there’s an office across the street, didn’t see the name but I’ll check their dental cost. Good positive vibes for you Niki and your Mom. Thanks
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!!
I love the info about the food goods industry. Quality fresh food, quality living!!!🌞 Everyone is living a better life!!! Wow !!! Paradise!!! 🌞🤗😎 BJ/ATL-USA
Amazing I’d love to move, but I’m on a limited income due to disability. I hope my family has a change of heart about Mexico 🇲🇽
🙏🏼 🙏🏼 🙏🏼
Got it now. You were talking straight to me. Thank you for the wonderful work you're doing.,💃💃💃
Ustedes son jente hermosa. Bien venidos a Mexico
