I've explained this too many times.. if you are just living in another country but don't plan on staying forever that's an expat. Immigrants immigrate (permanently usually) to another country. Sometimes legally sometimes illegally but usually with the intention of staying. Alternatively, an expat plans on returning to their home country. They are living temporarily in another country for work or other reasons. If they go through the immigration process they are immigrants. Is that enough of an explanation? If not, Google it!
Usually also, "immigrants " that come to USA from third world countries come here illegally. They come with no money using American resources like schools for their children,hospitals,welfare, etc,etc,etc. Many of them don't pay taxes and they send most of their money to their country of origin which doesn't help the American economy. Americans on the other hand take their own money and invest in the country they are moving to. When do you see a poor American taking free stuff and services paid by Peruvian taxpayers?
I moving to Peru soon 🥰🇵🇪❤️ Where you can eat everything organic. In Peru the lands are very productive for makes grow the vegetables and products for eat. I love Peru 🌺🇵🇪🥰❤️
Hopefully, I will be moving to Peru with my peruvian wife too. Peru is a great place if you are looking for business opportunities. I am quite excited about it
This people is gentrifying our main cities like is already happening in CDMX, we should NO alllow this to happen, must ask for the same documents and requirements they do to our people for entering their country. That's would be a fair trade.
Here in Cuszo in the green areas (the "Sacred Valley"), before there were only retired foreigners from the USA or Europe (Germany, France, Eastern Europe like Russia, etc.). Now, little by little, young couples with their small children are coming from those same places and are forming communities.
Great and thank you for sharing this. My wife is from Lima. Naturally she prefers the coast but I love the mountains so we have to compromise when we travel to Peru and other places too.

I've retired in Peru and Equador the past 3 years. I've rented houses under 500/mo and now travel exclusively for my own enjoyment. The food is fresh and healthy..so many places to explore.

I do appreciate the feedback! 2 months is a good amount of time so you should be able to figure out what appeals to you. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Safe travels!

In Peru you can find foods and superfoods that you cannot find in other parts of the world. You will also find a variety of fresh seafood. This is due to the Humboldt Current and the variety of climates, microclimates and ecological floors that make Peru a megadiverse country
I, like you have been married to a Peruvian living in the USA for the last 13 years. My wife has family there and I visited Lima last year and had a wonderful time. My Spanish is decent and we have hopes of living there full time in the near future. Much thanks for your video!!!!!
Very nice, we are both lucky. My wife also has family there and we stayed with them 2 years ago. Hoping to return soon. I have learned a lot from my Peruvian family, including Spanish! But I still have a long way to go. Glad people are enjoying the video! My wife is too!
Same to you, take care and thanks...born in A lit, brithis town in Peru having lit inka descendent, and portugueses from my father side and german and spanish from my mom, so I ended in Usa, my plan was got to Gremany, etc..
I’d love to see videos focusing on different Peruvian cities and towns and what it’s like to live there for American immigrants. I’d also like to see a video recommending ways to acclimatize to the altitude to avoid getting sick if you’re going from low altitude to high altitude places
My girlfriend is from Lima...we live in Florida..been to Lima a few times stayed mostly in Miraflores also been to Cusco and sacred valley which I really liked...the people are friendly but not sure i would live there ...when we get back to Florida it feels so clean and green
My wife is also from Lima. I've been around the country a bit. I understand your perspective. I am from NE USA but have been all around USA as well. I would just say that comparing USA to Peru is not as useful considering how much more developed USA is than Peru. A more fair comparison would be between other south or central American countries
Lima is filthy and often dangerous, unless you live amongst, "pitucos." Outside of: Barranco, Miraflores, San Isidro, Surco, La Molina (Las Casuarinas, La Planicie, San Borja, Camacho, Rinconada), Cieneguilla, Jesus Maria, Magdalena, your typical American could not adapt. Even San Miguel, La Punta, Callao would be slumming it.
I think it would be a good video to present the types of natural disasters that are common to different countries. I think earthquakes, hurricanes etc are good to know about. Thank you for considering our comments. I enjoy your video's
Well Lima hasnt got any earthwake since around 1700 wich means it could happend one very soon. You know how this work, Peru has 2 placas tectonicas: Naca and Southamerican, wje they colapse eachother under floor its when earthwakes happend, so when theres no any " sismic noise" its really worry cause that means a lot energie its keeping this destrcutive power. So to make it short, a huge earthquake its coming any time in Lima region. I wpuld recomend you looking outside Lima a livable city which are dozens with pure water, organic food and calm environments.
@@jorgelombardi5796true that, I’m Peruvian living in the States, I’ve lived in Lima and Arequipa, experienced some earthquakes in both but nothing out of the ordinary. I used to live 20 blocks from the ocean but if a tsunami had to happen, it would have to be a huge one as there a gigantic cliff to get to the ocean, the city is not at ocean level. (This in Lima)
Is Lima safe enough? I hear stories and see video about people stuck in traffic being mobbed / doors broken through and robbed just sitting in traffic in Lima.
You bring up a good point. It def depends on where you will be staying in Lima. Robberies are not that uncommon but there are steps you can take to make yourself safer. My wife is from Lima and she is definitely more safety conscious compared to me. Always reminding me to not show my phone, money, or other valuables. In Miraflores I would say it is safe enough. Outside of that bubble I would take necessary precautions. Thanks for your comment.
traffic here is insane, but about security it happesn any huge city even in united state...or eeuropean countries, so???? you gotta be careful thats it saddly
Haven’t experienced that however remember that in Lima the air quality is terrible each day. At a rating of 53 the air is hard to breath and hard on your chest after a few days. Arequipa and places smaller and more remote (Cusco)have good air quality daily this is not only a Peru thing. For instance many days in the Toronto area in Canada the air quality is poor many days as well. Just a different mix of toxins
If you want to have a relaxed and stress-free life, I recommend living in the Andean towns, the people there are different from those in big cities. In the small towns you can share with people and enjoy the ancestral customs and traditions that they still preserve.
As someone who’s gone back and forth to Peru for years, I’d like to live there in retirement. But they’ve changed the immigration rules. You now only get 90 days a year. And a longer term visa (‘carnet de extranjeria’)is difficult to obtain with the millions of Venezuelans that have flooded the country. What to do, 😳!
I understand there are a lot of issues now with immigration that you have pointed out. I think there are more visa options than what you've mentioned here, especially for retirees but you have to qualify for them. My wife and father in law are dual citizens so it's pretty easy for them. But for a gringo like myself I need to further explore my options
@@beasleyfinds You may have same situation as I do if you wish to stay in Peru more than ninety days a year. My wife has two passports. There is no problem for her, I guess like your wife. I’ve been to Peru four times since the pandemic, have been told something different by every immigration official I’ve talked to. And I was fined once for overstaying. Seems government, whether the U.S. or Peruvian, just plain screws up immigration! And as retirees, how many years my wife and I got left, 😳?
Yeah same as my wife. Well hopefully they get things figured out soon! Sounds like a hassle and they are cracking down on immigration stuff. Guess I can't blame them.
Remember especially in Lima Peru the air quality is very poor every day. At a level of 53 most days breathing is compromised. Running is not a good idea and likely you won’t see the hills outside of town as they will be shrouded in smog. Arequipa and smaller places like Cusco and areas in the mountains etc are fine for breathing
Yes that's a great point. I can't imagine my wife growing up breathing all that smog but she did. I do prefer the more mountainous areas but she prefers Lima to a certain extent
So you think you will have an easy life in Peru? Unless your wife is from high society Lima or you have rental property/pension coming in from the good Ole USA, you are dreaming. Peru is a much sadder place, without $$$.
Hi broo I wanted to live in the Peru. Please help me on. Room rent is Scotiabank they're . Also gym. Cancern is how much is the monthly rent. By dollar or . Thanks 😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Alright buddy I will get to work on some more videos. I'm not sure about the bank haha. The rent really depends on where you want to live. It's much less than the USA or Canada for example. Stay tuned for more content! Subscribe!
Immigrant implies that you intend to stay indefinitely. Expat also has a meaning for people employed in another country. If you search for expat vs immigrant you will find a more detailed answer. I also cover this in some of my other videos. Thanks for watching.
Sorry, but your list is totally wrong. Mexico is way cheaper than Peru or Brazil. I don't understand how your list says that Mexico is 2 times more expensive than Brazil or Peru. I have been to the 3 countries and Mexico is way cheaper. That is the reason why Americans love going to Mexico for holidays, where their USD make them instanly rich in Mexico!
You are right Peru 🇵🇪 seems more expensive than Mexico 🇲🇽 and it is because the quality of service is top of the line and the level is upscale compared to lesser lay back style in Mexico that is why you are paying for high quality versus quantities and simplicity
Being a born and raised Peruvian living in US, I can honestly say I would not move to Peru unless I'm out of Lima and out of their surroundings... Lima is saturated.. been there for a month long just recently and I can say that the traffic and people no respecting anything PLUS the insecurity... makes a recipe for not wanting to comeback... I would if at least the insecurity is somehow controlled or under some kind of security... until then NAH is a hard pass maybe someone else find it attractive but being from there, is a hard pass for me... I will go to do business and make an extra income but other than that NAH....
Yeah my wife grew up in Lima and loves to visit but I don't think she would want to live there again. I enjoyed my time traveling around Cusco and the Sacred Valley. I like the mountains more than the coastal areas. If I were to live there a while, that's where it would be. Thanks for your honest thoughts.
Move from Comifornia to Peru. The Amazon region. Crimes is almost nom existent here, food has no chemicals, no hormones, delicious. Women are hot here. Parties are great. Cost of living is cheap. With 1000$ u can live as a confortable, healthy, u can even have a maid.
I very strongly believe it is the cost of living 'mostly'. Doubtful it is from a desire to learn Spanish ! --?-- So many other countries are getting many expats from all over the place also. Grass is greener in many cases for sure - some for ethnic reasons perhaps also a few generations removed maybe ? -- Biden's America has driven many to homelessness - or - very near it - and inflation is ridiculous. Other states that were cheaper have seen illegal immigration exacerbate the affordable housing crisis - practically nationwide ! - - - Many countries are now seeing the influx of expats - driving up the prices for locals and causing severe inflation for them ! --?-- As people move and relocate looking for a better life - having a worse one where they are now. - - - And so it goes........
POLITICS AND ECONOMIC SITUATION GOES IN DIFFERENT DIRECTION, THATS WHY PERU IS ONE OF THE MOST STABLE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD IN ECONOMY .THE PERUVIAN CURRENCY EL SOL IS BETTER THAN THE AMERICAN DOLLAR BECAUSE IS MORE STABLE . 5:17
The Peruvians has always been happy to share their country and lived comfortable with the European and Asian colonies because they’re more relaxed and less judgmental.
No, please, you are gentrifying our city which is actually very expensive, our government has to ask for the same documents you do require to our people, it is unfair that you send back people with no visa and you can came with not any documents.
So it is unfair for certain foreigners to legally visit and immigrate to Peru, but also unfair that other countries disallow illegal immigration according to their laws and customs?
If you have money at least $1,200 US Dollars a month, you can live very comfortably and travel within Perú regional lands, just to discover amazing and beautiful places you've probably never seen in your entire life.

Remember especially in Lima Peru the air quality is very poor every day. At a level of 53 most days breathing is compromised. Running is not a good idea and likely you won’t see the hills outside of town as they will be shrouded in smog. Arequipa and smaller places like Cusco and areas in the mountains etc are fine for breathing
Yes that's a great point. I can't imagine my wife growing up breathing all that smog but she did. I do prefer the more mountainous areas but she prefers Lima to a certain extent

Immigrant implies that you intend to stay indefinitely. Expat also has a meaning for people employed in another country. If you search for expat vs immigrant you will find a more detailed answer. I also cover this in some of my other videos. Thanks for watching.
Job opportunities for immigrants. Are there opportunities in Peru?

Sorry, but your list is totally wrong. Mexico is way cheaper than Peru or Brazil. I don't understand how your list says that Mexico is 2 times more expensive than Brazil or Peru. I have been to the 3 countries and Mexico is way cheaper. That is the reason why Americans love going to Mexico for holidays, where their USD make them instanly rich in Mexico!
Prove it .. by the way, do you work for Mexico or something? 🇵🇪😁🦙❤️
You are right Peru 🇵🇪 seems more expensive than Mexico 🇲🇽 and it is because the quality of service is top of the line and the level is upscale compared to lesser lay back style in Mexico that is why you are paying for high quality versus quantities and simplicity
Mexico is very dangerous
Being a born and raised Peruvian living in US, I can honestly say I would not move to Peru unless I'm out of Lima and out of their surroundings... Lima is saturated.. been there for a month long just recently and I can say that the traffic and people no respecting anything PLUS the insecurity... makes a recipe for not wanting to comeback... I would if at least the insecurity is somehow controlled or under some kind of security... until then NAH is a hard pass maybe someone else find it attractive but being from there, is a hard pass for me... I will go to do business and make an extra income but other than that NAH....
Yeah my wife grew up in Lima and loves to visit but I don't think she would want to live there again. I enjoyed my time traveling around Cusco and the Sacred Valley. I like the mountains more than the coastal areas. If I were to live there a while, that's where it would be. Thanks for your honest thoughts.
Totally agree!! No way! I could never live there again!!
I found my wife in Peru
Awesome! Good women there.
Good women in Peru!
Move from Comifornia to Peru. The Amazon region. Crimes is almost nom existent here, food has no chemicals, no hormones, delicious. Women are hot here. Parties are great. Cost of living is cheap. With 1000$ u can live as a confortable, healthy, u can even have a maid.
This is amazing. I have heard good things about the Amazon region as well. Good to hear!

I very strongly believe it is the cost of living 'mostly'. Doubtful it is from a desire to learn Spanish ! --?-- So many other countries are getting many expats from all over the place also. Grass is greener in many cases for sure - some for ethnic reasons perhaps also a few generations removed maybe ? -- Biden's America has driven many to homelessness - or - very near it - and inflation is ridiculous. Other states that were cheaper have seen illegal immigration exacerbate the affordable housing crisis - practically nationwide ! - - - Many countries are now seeing the influx of expats - driving up the prices for locals and causing severe inflation for them ! --?-- As people move and relocate looking for a better life - having a worse one where they are now. - - - And so it goes........
Cost of living is the biggest factor for many but not all I'd argue. Thanks.
@@beasleyfinds yea - right - 'only' for many millions - huh.
Friendly remember you’re an immigrant and not an expat
Sure
@ ok buddy, calling yourself an “ex patriot” doesn’t change the fact that you’re an immigrant to Peru
I didn't call myself an expatriate buddy
@@danbazley5445 My comment shouldn’t concern you then since you’re not the one I commented towards
You need to stop this nonsense @@edgarespino3005
Call yourself immigrants doesn't matter if you are temporary or permanent. be honest Yousef.
Sure why not
😔 *Promosm*

A falling government and greedy politicians
Just like a lot of places but still a great country. Cheer up!
POLITICS AND ECONOMIC SITUATION GOES IN DIFFERENT DIRECTION, THATS WHY PERU IS ONE OF THE MOST STABLE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD IN ECONOMY .THE PERUVIAN CURRENCY EL SOL IS BETTER THAN THE AMERICAN DOLLAR BECAUSE IS MORE STABLE . 5:17
The same everywhere if you look around you.
You just described any/all places in the world.
Americans aren’t moving to Peru, they’re moving to Mexico, Paraguay, Argentina, and SE Asia
Yup 👍
The Peruvians has always been happy to share their country and lived comfortable with the European and Asian colonies because they’re more relaxed and less judgmental.
Peruvians are the best!
Argentina? No way! Mexico wowww clearly you don't read stats!
IN AREQUIPA THERE ARE ABOUT 2 THOUSAND AMERICAN EXPAT .IN CUZCO 1 THOUSAND EUROPEAN EXPAT .
No, please, you are gentrifying our city which is actually very expensive, our government has to ask for the same documents you do require to our people, it is unfair that you send back people with no visa and you can came with not any documents.
So it is unfair for certain foreigners to legally visit and immigrate to Peru, but also unfair that other countries disallow illegal immigration according to their laws and customs?
@@beasleyfindsshut up his speak the true 🤡🤷🏼♂️ you only in Peru we all now why your wife is from Peru so stop all the bullshit 🤡
@@beasleyfindsare you serious clowns 🤡🤷🏼♂️

If you have money at least $1,200 US Dollars a month, you can live very comfortably and travel within Perú regional lands, just to discover amazing and beautiful places you've probably never seen in your entire life.
Yes, Peru is a big country with many diverse landscapes and regions to explore. It is certainly worthy of consideration for travel or retirement.
