Ive been stopped by the police twice, but once they realized I'm older, retired, living on a small pension, don't do drugs, rarely drink, don't party and I'm fascinated with the language, culture and art of mexico our interactions are simply greeting one another.

    One advice with a lot of kindness, respect and humility for you beautiful ladies. I am Mexican, and have traveled across the USA from East to West and North to South. I just wanna first thank you for such nice words and how you express yourselves of Mexico in general. Surely Mexicans are happy to have you in our country and we are glad you chose it to call it home. That’s a compliment and we are deeply thankful.
    My two advice for you ladies is to always smile. People are gonna smile back to you. As part of our culture across the country we always greet people even if we don’t know them at all. If they pass by our houses we greet them and they always reply back. Secondly, you don’t have to speak Spanish nor speak it perfectly to approach different people and greet them nicely saying “hola, cómo estás?” Then you can switch back to English. If the person you greeted doesn’t know English he will help you taking you to someone who does speak and understands your language. Mexicans love saying “gracias” for everything. And also if you saw people with black skin with African ancestry who clearly speak Mexican Spanish quite well. Do not call them African-Mexican, or if you see a white person who is from Mexico never use the word “whitexican”. We believe that regardless our ethnicities if you were born in Mexico you are Mexican period. We do not like nor wanna promote those prefixes and labels that lead to stereotypes and degrade people as not fully Mexican. We understand Mexico has a diverse population and we are proud of that and embrace diversity but we don’t want to promote as part of our culture those labels and prefixes used in the USA which implicitly teach that white is the norm to be “American” cuz they say “African-American” “Mexica-American, Asian-American even if those people were born in the USA but, they never ever call themselves European-American. So please help us not to bring those habits.
    We love you all refer to the USA as US, the States, or the United States. the whole Latin community thank you deeply for that cuz we believe there's one single America which is a continent where we all live. it is not a country.
    That's about it and hopefully you guys have a wonderful life living in Mexico and enjoy your stay.

      I agree with everything you said. The only difference is that most Americans have kind of begrudgingly accepted the hyphenated name because those groups like to embrace and emphasize their “non whiteness” which is in vogue now. But most people would prefer the US to be a melting pot. Share your culture but also assimilate and be respectful as should anyone going anywhere out of their country of origin. I truly can’t stand those Americans going to Mexico and demanding the locals speak English. At least make the effort to do as the locals. Mexico is beautiful and people going to live there should try and be an asset to the community like these ladies have done. And just like anyone going anywhere, we bring the good parts to share while blending and assimilating to the local.

    This is what it should be when you relocate to México. Not all the "Ex-Pats" that buy up communities, gate them and make it so expensive for locals, refuse to learn Spanish and only stick to hanging out with people like themselves. These women are a beautiful example of how cultures learn about each other, accept each other and share each other's ways. I'm curious to know besides the drivers who provide services to them do they have other friends here that are locals?

      She is missed in Albuquerque!!!!
      Chapala was beautiful when I was there in 1993, my daughter's dad and I loved the food and the people... and not being scared of the police was such a different experience from NC & VA.
      We settled in Albuquerque after we left Mexico, because out of all the places we visited, Albuquerque was the closest to staying in Mexico.
      My favorite parts of Mexico were learning where to safely eat from the taxi cab drivers, exploring the ruins with the locals on Sundays, and the beautiful mothers, aunties, and grandmothers of Oaxaca.
      May you enjoy your journeys!

A black women about the same age as these 3 ladies, once came to get some dental work done, she was single and retired, she did not have any children. So basically she was here by her self. She told me that she decided to purchase a house in Rosarito to live permanently. With her retirement she couldn’t afford the rent or any other expenses in the U.S , including getting her teeth fixed. She seemed happy but at the same depressed because she was here by herself, so she couldn’t share her happiness with a partner. Also it was hard to move around because she had to rely on Taxis and her Spanish wasn’t good at all. I just hope she is doing well and my prayers go out to her! 🙏

    What a wonderful pleasure to receive the honest reviews on many topics by three lovely ladies. For me one special comment was that they prayed, before moving to where they are now living in Mexico. I tend to believe all their information and views were directly from the heart. Best wishes on your new journey..

    What a pleasant group of ladies, their demeanor the way they express about Mexico, the way they are adjusting to the country and the culture is admirable, their atention to detail as well. Just so that they know, there was a time, not long ago when you could buy half a cheese, half or a quarter of a chocolate bar/tablet, the beans and most of groceries were wraped in paper cones to be sold to the public ..they still sell batteries by the piece. Greetings to the 3 of the them.

    Ladies, thank you so much for your uplifting video! I am in my 13th year living here and I have seen North of the Border folks come and go. Many were just not a fit from the word go and you could see it right away. They were fearful and negative about the local markets and shopped only at Guadalajara Malls or local NOB specialty stores with high prices. I tried to move into the local Mexican community and eventually became friends with Mexicans. I hope that I see you around Chapala to greet you in person some time. Much of what you said resonates with my experience here. Kudos to the three of you!
