How to live in mexico by katwood8

"Living in another culture has made me learn so much about myself."

How I did it: Really, I have been dreaming of it since high school, but have been fixating on it more and more over the past 6 years.  About a year before I moved, I started seriously investigating options and writing grants.  I got certified to teach English as a second language so that I would have more career options.  However, I ended up being hired as a bilingual secretary in Mexico by a company who has taken care of getting me a visa!

My interest in other countries and cultures lead me to want to live abroad, but I am finding that living abroad leads to many discoveries about myself and my own culture than I could have imagined.

    Why Not Mexico 16 months ago

    My Dad bought a house 3 years ago in Mazatlan, Mexico. I still have not been there. Free stay, beautiful beaches, latin women. I want to be there.

    Live in Mexico 22 months ago

    I want to live in rural Mexico, somewhere near the ocean. In a simple little house and go to the market every day and find folk art in the countryside. I want to drink margaritas on the beach and watch the sunset.

    This is my dream, and my dream job involves working in the environmental field or maybe being a traveling photographer. Once you go to Mexico, it captures your heart and you wish that you didn’t have to leave.

    I will keep this filed away as a dream for now, but hopefully soon it will be a reality.

    I studied there. 2 years ago

    Here is the scoop…don’t let broken Spanish hold you back, I went with little grasp of it and lived there for 6 months. Also don’t forget to visit small towns and rural places (that is the real Mexico!) One tip…pack light and keep your eyes open on public transport and at ATMs…common sense really.
    Don’t forget a bright colored skirt or hat…Living in Mexico means having fun!!!!
