  • If you're considering moving abroad then you're in the right place. We're currently on a 12 month journey of traveling to different countries and living there to get a good sense of where we'd like to be long term down the line. In this video, I'm gonna go over some pros AND cons that I think you should know before making your decision.

    I like how you're teaching the young beautiful Queens to step out on not just Faith, but on being fearless, challenge yourself, and doing the unexpected with no regrets, because life is too short to let life and traveling pass you by. Respect.

    We are your people if you let us be. I am always happy to see people comming here. Especially black people becasue I am learning about black people's culture here in Mexico and I like talking to them about the stuff I have learned. How we have black roots, in my family in my families home state. In our revolution. Mexico is also a melting pot . Our culture derrives from many peoples cultures and arts even food. I had to adapt to new things in Mexico after leaving the U.S. I had to let things go and just adapt. I live happy in Mexico. I hope you find that happiness here as well while you are here.

    Woah, i love the way you structured the vblog, also what you talk about is very real, and I'm sure you only know these pros and cons if people start the same journey as you have and people before you. Its a very brave thing to do what you are doing, not for everyone, because leaving a comfort zone can be very scary, however, you discover people, places, good and bad, and one of the most important things you generally discover, is, you. I'm loving your maturity, that is obviously within you and the growth you are going through, and it's an honour to tag along for us to be with you on this journey. Stay safe and have a wonderful time in the future 😊🙏❤️

    Some thoughts…
    You’re courageous to travel around like you do.
    You learn a lot about yourself and others, including cultures, etc.
    Thanks for sharing this video about pros and cons.
    But one point I want to highlight:
    Please understand that expecting people to come visit you when you move internationally is an unfair and unreasonable expectation. It doesn’t mean that they aren’t real friends, it simply means that they may not share the same interest and traveling abroad no matter how seemingly close brings about a number of factors sometimes complicated factors.
    There’s cultural differences, different laws, preferences and etc. Consider seeing old friends and relatives when you plan a trip to visit home ( America).
    You sound like a sweet and sociable person, but as a sociable person you need to be around people. You enjoy social interactions.
    As human beings we all enjoy the company of others, but some people enjoy the company of others more than others and there’s nothing wrong with that.
    One of my daughters wanted to go to school sick just to be with friends. I didn’t let her go, but even back then in elementary school I knew that she would be more of a social person than some of her siblings.

    All laughs aside, I learned a LONG time ago that changing and changing my life will always reveal who's really down for me. How long will you be in Playa? I'll schedule a meal or outing with you if you're still there when I come that way. I commend what you're doing and celebrate you for doing it. It takes mega courage.
