I though the food was very bland and small portions. I'm a local and pata salada with over 45 years in food and bev.
Sorry but that whole area looks pretty rundown! I would never want to be there sorry, I was planning a vacation to Puerto Vallarta for November and December other parts of Mexico, but I might skip Vallarta altogether
Yes you should do that 👍🏼
I am new to your channel. I also have a partner and children back here in Canada. We are looking at all of our options to expand our horizons as well. Will continue to follow you both on your journey!!!
Thank you for subscribing 😊 glad you guys like the content 🙌🏼
You can shop locally cheaper. Topical gringos. Gringos gringos gringos. Will you ever learn. Bye the way it's not cheaper here than the United States.
Yes of course, we’ve done many videos on that! This specific one was about Costco! If you think Mexicans don’t love Costco as much as Gringos you should definitely go to one and see!
Why you guys leaving México 🇲🇽 I’m sad
Hello :) not sure if you watched the video but we're not leaving lol we are visiting family and friends in Canada
@@Morelifediaries oh yeah I just saw it you’re right thanks god
Marc & Kathleen: You almost had me fooled there, for a moment. I am glad it is temporary. I imagine is is a little painful to leave PV, such a nice place. But, visiting family is the big silver lining, and going back for them is always worth it. I missed seeing your videos, so I look forward to seeing what your impressions of T.O. are now. (Yes, we still have those "sketchy people") Lol. Hope you are all doing well.
Thank you! And visiting family and friends will forever bring us back to visit. There’s definitely significantly more sketchy people
Will be really interesting to see what differences you notice. I grew up in Kingston but have lived in Alberta for years. Have a great visit!
Thank you so much ☺️
I have to share,my wife and I were devastated by the opening of this video.Glad to here your just leaving to visit family . We have visited PVR twice in the last 6 mths and are seriously considering it as our retirement home and tha k you for the wealth of information you have shared. Keep hugging those children !
Haha 😂 had to do it! We love as well and miss It dearly!
When are you coming back?
TBD!
I felt uncomfortable going through US immigration after being abroad for a long time. Felt like they don't want people leaving.
They’re the worst! Canada is usually pretty bad but it was a breeze this time - maybe it was because we went through at 3:30am lol
Don't go away friends, I just discovered your channel, I hope it's something temporary.
We got some more PV content coming ☺️ Then a little Toronto content THEN a sh*t tone more PV content lol
Glad to see you back. Have fun in Toronto. Hope to see you guys when we are in P.V. in December. Take care.
Thank you 😊 we’ll be back soon!
Hooray for Toronto videos! PV sunsets are what I miss the most.
I miss it all 😭
Feliz viaje amijos dios los bendiga que regrecen pronto
Muchísimas gracias 😊
Wishing you a wonderful trip to Toronto! We hope you enjoy every moment of reconnecting with friends and family, and savoring the beauty and vibrancy of the city. May your time be filled with joy, laughter, and cherished memories. Safe travels and have a fantastic visit!
Thank you so much for the wonderful comment 😍
Wow! I didn't see that coming. I have followed you from the beginning. Hello from Ottawa
Haha 😂 that’s awesome thank you so much for your continue support. We’ll actually have a little bit of ottawa content as well 😀
You guys got me! I saw your title to this video and that what the f*@k. I am from Brantford just west of Toronto and bought a condo at Harbor 171. Plan on being a snow bird for now but maybe full time in a couple of years. Your videos have been great and helpful. Hope to run into you guys oned day. Safe travels
Lol 😂 that’s awesome and congrats on your purchase! Enjoying TO but can’t wait to be back in PV
Que pasa my friends don't scare me remember you guys always welcome ..mexico is your home now.. mi casa es tu casa ...
Thank you so much that’s means a lot ❤️
I was worried about you guys because you haven't posted a new video for quite a while.
We’re back 🤩
Toronto ? Get ready Your in for a rude awakening Your not going to recognize it Enjoy your family and friends Best wishes, get back soon! 🇨🇦🇲🇽
It hasn’t gotten better that’s for sure! Episodes coming soon and thank you 😊
oh, a month...lol! You caught me there. Where abouts in Toronto are you guys going to? I'm from the Kawarthas ( Omemee ) but live in Thunder Bay...
We’re located downtown although we also frequent Newmarket and Ottawa for family visits
Treaudeau in handcuffs be a great start to see. 😂
Would finally give us a reason to celebrate!
I just got back to PV after a 6 week vacation back in the states and overseas. I missed it so much and it feels great to be back! Except the rain and humidity lol
Welcome back! Can’t wait to be back there!
You guys have inspired my dream/ambition to relocate to Mexico. more than likely PV. I was worried whether something terrible happened for you guys to pack up and leave so abruptly lol have a great trip guys! looking forward to future content including some Toronto vlogs!
Thank you so much for your support! Glad you like our content ☺️
I was feeling sad already 😢
Don’t worry be happy 🙂
Glad you guys are okay. Enjoy your family and friends. See you bavk soon
I was hoping you were just baiting your line🤣
Lol 😂
Nice hook. Enjoy yur trip seeing family and friends. -Marc
Thank you so much ☺️
Here can I buy live rabbits there
No Idea!
His artwork is awesome!!
We love them so much :)
Been missing your videos. I was sad to hear you were leaving! I'm so glad it's temporary. Been following you for a while. Keep it going, guys. You are a wonderful family!
Thanks :) your support means the world!
Missed u 2. ☮️
🙂
That’s why you do walking tours…..to wear off all the tacos you have to eat to do a video for us! 😂 The things you do for us….hahaha. (Thank you) Question: which video was it that you did the Big Saturday Market? Thanks 😊
GUILTY 🙈 lol We've gone in a few videos but this was the first one I think: ruclips.net/video/hl-B8wbQ6aw/видео.htmlsi=Fw7l4YO4tzm0dBAK
I missed you posting these! 😊
They randomly pop back up every now and again!
I felt exactly like that living in Canada for 17 years and being from Mexico those feelings are common wherever you move in the world… but life is meant to experience and live in the moment, the beauty of our times is that you can make those dreams come true and then if you decide move back to another place in the world ❤ the psychological aspect of moving and finding the right place for permanent or temporary homes is our passion❤
Well said! We feel the same! Live where it feels right in the moment - it doesn't mean it's forever but it could me. We love exploring :)
DISCUSS TAXES ASSET TRAN FOR RETIREES WHO WANT TO STAY
Thanks for watching and commenting! I'm sorry we're not knowledable on that although I'm sure there are channels out there for that!
Why is it double.when i do it.
Could very easily be double!
I'm moving there in September from the US. Have heard about costs rising and people leaving because their fixed income isn't going as far. I understand it. I'll be working remotely as a telehealth therapist that I currently already do in the US so income won't be an issue for me. Rented a home in the Versailles neighborhood for a year's lease and went through a service that walked me through the temporary visa process, which made it so easy. There will be things I will need to adjust to like having patience and understanding the infrastructure is not what I'm used to but there are trade offs. I'm so glad I am renting a home with solar panels so it will ease the electric bill since I'm sure I will be running the A/C a lot during the worst of the summer months, but the house also has a pool so that will help. I'm still excited about the move and most looking forward to becoming fluent in Spanish instead of just conversational. I want to really immerse myself into the culture and the locals and live an authentic Mexican experience. I don't like the arrogance many foreigners bring. I recognize I am a guest in the country and I need to assimilate to their way of life.
That's awesome! You will love it! There is some getting used to but all of that really depends on the individual. You seem like you have the right mindset :)
Haven't seen you guys for a bit. Wishing you well
We're back this week :) Stay tuned
What role does poor Spanish language communication skills play in this expat exodus?
I do not believe that that has anything to do with it. Probably it got to expensive for some.
People that live here fulltime and need to interact on a daily basis in spanish but don't speak it find it difficult (Bank, store, school, EVERYWHERE lol). Some people are simply not as adaptable as they might have thought. THis is different than someone who is vacationing.
Cost of living for the people we know has definetly been a factor but I wouldn't say it's been the driving factor to leave PV. Although it's expensive and prices aren't going down!
We go to PV for vacation from Todo Santos.Because it's a lot cheaper than where we live. Much cheaper. And it's not very cheap. But cheaper.
Much cheaper than Toronto as well 0_o
Fantastic advice guys thank you & gracias!! 😊
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Hello foreigners are the costing the PROBLEM, NOT mentioning the displacement off True Mexicans that CANNOT afford were they were Born. Especially Californian are the ones they created that problem they were the ones did the same thing in neighboring states in the US. Plus lots gringos move there thinking because they bought a house in Mexico they think they bought the Country.
Nice video. I really miss Puerto Vallarta. It’s become so expensive there. I guess anything is cheap compared to Toronto but if you really want cheap, you should visit Colombia. With beautiful beach towns, like Santa Marta in San Andres, you can really have an amazing time and eat an abundance of fruits and vegetables for a fraction of the price you pay in Puerto Vallarta. Thank you for this wonderful video and enjoy your time in Mexico! Cheers from Yellowknife Northwest Territories 😊
Thanks for watching! Definetly not as "cheap" as people would think but it's most definetly more affordable than Toronto. We will visit Colombia one day (hopefully soon) as we've heard great things! Would also love to visit Yellowknife one day :)
Happy for you on your inspiring journey, and appreciate this video. Very clear and helpful (this is coming from a career languages teacher who doesn't say this often/lightly)! Just subscribed and am looking forward to following your content. Best wishes!
Thank you for your great comment :)
"More cheaper " um? Grammar check
Oh nice the grammar police is here!! Cool 😎
Very informative. Thanks!
Thank you 😊
Very informative. I'm moving permanently in September and will be remote working and so the main selling point of the house I'm renting in Versailles is that it has solar panels so that will help with the A/C because I am liberal with using the A/C and don't want to get into the commercial rate. I will be brining my car as well but don't anticipate too much driving which is why I picked the neighborhood I did, which is around the corner from La Comer and other walkable shops, cafe's pharmacies, and restaurants. Costs are rising in PV and some ppl are saying they had to find a cheaper place to live or move altogether, but it is still very affordable. My big expense will be rent which is 38000 MX/month but I have no kids and so its still more affordable than where I am now.
That's awesome! PV is significantly cheaper than Toronto for most things as well!
No wonder so many Canadians and Americans go to PV as snowbirds, or move there full time after retiring. I'm 61, and living in Toronto; I could easily retire right now if I sold our house and moved to PV! But I don't plan to do that, since we have 3 kids and 2 grandkids here in Toronto. However, I will be done there for 1 month this coming winter, and maybe in a few years we will start spending the whole winter, when I enter 'semi-retirement' mode. In terms of your expenses, you only used gasoline as your car expense. I gather you own your car, but what about insurance and maintenance/repairs on the car?
1 month is a great start! You'll see if you'd want to be there longer in the future. We mentionned in the video the car insurance - it's a one time payment per year that's usually a couple hundred usd depending which company you choose. We own our car outright and thankfully we didn't have any maintenance or repairs for that specific month but those have ranged from a couple hundred pesos to $10K+ depending on what it was. Typically regular maintenance is comparable to what we pay in Toronto.
Been here 20 years- you make it what you want wherever you want, so adios!
That's awesome! And you're right! Not every town/city is a perfect fit for everyone..nor should it be!
