Great video! This was very useful 🥰 I was actually one of those people who moved without visiting first lol. I had a good reason though, I fell in love with a beautiful Mexican woman. I couldn’t handle being away from her (as I lived in Australia), especially when she became ill. I moved to Mexico 4 months ago, and I really love it. The culture, the food, the nature and magic towns, it’s awesome! There is only one issue I have, and it’s to do with speaking. I have zero confidence, and find myself relying on my wife to speak for me, even if I know how to respond. She knows I have anxiety so she happily helps me. I’m now at the point where I feel very dependant on her, as I can’t really speak for myself. This isn’t fair on her or me. I was wondering if anyone here has some advice, tips or tricks to help me learn Spanish, but to also feel comfortable speaking. Thanks for the video!
Of all the excellent content about Mexico published on UA-cam, Mariana and Dustin, and the team at Mexico Relocation Guide are likely the very best of the best. Much gratitude and appreciation for the professional, entertaining, and informative content that you all create! ❤
Very informative. Thank you. I will be getting your guide in 2025 with a year to prep, visit and following your recommendations. Thanks for all you do 😊
I have traveled many times to Mexico for years now. I agree with everything you said in the video, great, honest, truth based information, especially for those coming or moving to Mexico. People coming to Mexico must learn some Spanish or your visit, experience and life will be very uncomfortable. This is another country with a different culture and way of living, you must adjust to it as best you can.
Muchas gracias for all the EXCELLENT info and insights you provide on this channel! I'm taking Spanish lessons to prepare for retirement in Mexico ... can you elaborate on how small talk in Mexico is different (7:41)?
Hola de nuevo Mariana! That was pretty short for a live feed. I was hoping that you would field some of the questions that so many people have. You always give good advice. Give Dustin a hug and that way you'll get one back! Mucha suerte desde la hermosa Ensenada!
Firstly, thank you for being a channel that shows images and videos while educating your audience. I always skip those who sit in a room and just speak! The other thing I would recommend those who don't speak any Spanish at all is downloading a voice translation app on their phone! This saved me in the non touristy areas in Greece 😊
I'm curious about a phrase that was written over an image in your video - "Be aware that small talk in Mexico is different." Can you explain more? I like to talk with my neighbors (to the best of my ability - using Google Translate) and don't want to say the wrong things. Thanks Mariana!
Don't be afraid to make small talk :) What I mean is that in Mexico small talk is a bit less shallow than just asking "Hi how are you?" and getting the typical "i'm good thanks." In Mexico, small talk is a bit deeper- especially if you have met the person more than once. You would ask about their families, their kids, their company, and a bit more than just a "How are you?" Hope this helps!
Great Video Mariana! I am happy to see that I have done almost everything you recommended. I can't wait for my place to be finished in Rosarito so I can move there full time and start exploring Baja! I chose Rosarito because of its proximity to my two baby grandkids in Carlsbad, CA and easy access to medicare in San Diego. My first choice was Puerto Vallarta before the grandkids came on the scene. Thank You!
I would love to apply for a residency visa but it seems you need to have an address in Mexico but I'm not ready to move yet, so cannot apply. Am I hopefully wrong?
Good video. For those folks who want to be “perpetual tourists”, one idea would be to spend up to 180 days in Mexico, then go to neighboring Belize or Guatemala for 6 months, and then return to Mexico for a new 180-day tourist visa.
hey! thanks for your feedback. However , that’s just not a plan we recommend. too risky for those who actually need to come back to mexico and stay long term. get residency and do it the right way if you’re living in Mexico 😉
Check out the RNE program. You could residency in Mexico without proving economic solvency. mexicorelocationguide.com/regularization-program-residency-in-mexico/
@@Taldanmus It isn't clear why Mexico has increased to much the amount required to be a temporary resident. It varies depending on where you apply but could be $4,394 USD income a month after taxes. I lot more than when I for it long ago. That is a too much for many people. Essentially, you have to be making the amount the top 1% in Mexico makes to immigrate.
@@BosqueVillageThe financial requirements for residency in Mexico is tied to the Mexican minimum wage, which has increased greatly several times in the last few years. That's why the requirements have gotten so high. I think Mexico's monthly income requirement for residency are some of the highest around the world. It's higher than most European countries, even.

The Mexico Relocation Guide is a MUST!
Love the idea of the relocation tour, but the prices are quite high.

Another great video! Thanks as always!

Gracias Lisa - un saludito

Good Job…. Great Info!
Mexico is the best country to move to in Latin America! I love it!
I wouldn't doubt it
I’m planning to move before Christmas. The rent prices in Colonia American in Guadalajara are sooooooo expensive
What about the Gulf coast towns and cities I never hear anything in this area. I love the gulf and am interested in that area
we’re working on getting over there sooner than later
. Stay tuned
Very hot. I suggest using weatherspark to compare climates.

@daljrt. You definitely don't want to miss time with grandchildren. It goes way too fast.
Super
I would love to apply for a residency visa but it seems you need to have an address in Mexico but I'm not ready to move yet, so cannot apply. Am I hopefully wrong?
you can use (in most cases) a temporary address such as a hotel or local Airbnb
@@MexicoRelocationGuide Thank you
RENT A CLOSIT IN A HOUSE FOR 10 PESO ? PER MONTH TO USE THE ADDRESS.
Good video. For those folks who want to be “perpetual tourists”, one idea would be to spend up to 180 days in Mexico, then go to neighboring Belize or Guatemala for 6 months, and then return to Mexico for a new 180-day tourist visa.
Do you live in Mexico now?
hey! thanks for your feedback. However , that’s just not a plan we recommend. too risky for those who actually need to come back to mexico and stay long term. get residency and do it the right way if you’re living in Mexico 😉
Or don't move, that's a better option
@@LoyaVenturas If you feel this way about Mexico, why are you even watching a video about moving to Mexico?
I can't afford to move to Mexico with the outrageous minimum monthly requirement that they're asking for
Check out the RNE program. You could residency in Mexico without proving economic solvency. mexicorelocationguide.com/regularization-program-residency-in-mexico/
There is legal way around it, the income is only one of many options
Why is it outrageous?
