    Hey boys welcome to Mexico. We too are nomadic travels me and my husband have been traveling for 4 years. We too are from Cali as in Sacramento. So nice to see another interracial couple experiencing a new way of life. By the way love your brand name. We spent some time in Merida this time last year. We’re currently in San Miguel De Allende and will be here in Mexico until May of 2021. We’re still looking for a place to call home. Look forward to hearing more of your experiences in Merida because that was a contender for us as well. Stay safe and hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful.

      Aw thanks Julie! The flights here were what we were most nervous about due to Covid, however we had N95 masks on the whole time (didn't eat or drink) and thankfully it all worked out. We found the rentals through our broker, who we met after responding to a listing we saw on vivanuncios.com.mx. As far as the fees, they vary for everyone, but we're going to go into all that in this week's video, so stay tuned!!

    I just started looking for apartments and prices have definitely increased since this video was made...as a matter of fact one of those rentals is online! These places are so nicely built but go so fast; you really need to focus on what features you're looking for and take emotion out to make the best decision...pretty hard here. Where I'm from your faced with limited, tiny, expensive, ugly options and the landlord decides of they want you...here the winner is who pays first

I like #4, but again it doesn't appear to have much sunlight. The more sunlight the interior of the house gets the better I would be. I guess you all chose #3. It had the most natural light.

      Haha it had a bunch of windows (and a skylight over the stairs!) but we were there at night so we didn’t get that on film. You’ll have to tune in next week to find out where we ended up 🙃

    How long did it take you to look for an apartment? How long did you spend in Merida before deciding to move there? We are thinking about it.

      It took about a week, but we had our first rental for a month so we didn't have to rush it!

      That was up in the north - one of the montes we believe (it's been a while!)

  • @thinkplanetearth2946
    @thinkplanetearth2946 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Last apartment was definitely my favorite. What's a shame, for me, is that they are all so modern, kind of generic and interchangeable. Something you could find in the U.S., rather than Mexico. But the price points were pretty crazy.

      We used www.vivanuncios.com.mx and www.inmuebles24.com (and if you're looking for a short-term vacation rental or to buy in Merida, check out meridaproperties.com.mx - that's who we used for our first place!)

      I leaned toward 1 because of the private pool, that IS NOT right next to the kiddos play area like # 5!! Put a nice BBQ grill outside and extend that little kitchen! Get some egg crate foam & soundproof that 2nd room... lol, they were all nice! I know you from The Terrell Show & your Christmas commercial YAY!!!

    Re A/C what is the cost of electricity.

    • @TravelWTravis
      @TravelWTravis  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ours is very inexpensive (even though we run the AC a bunch) and comes to about $10/month. We've heard horror stories though of it being much, much more and genuinely don't understand how or why ours is so low / other people's is so high 🤷‍♂️

      We prefer the North or Centro, but there's *so* many different pros and cons of each hood - we'd definitely recommend coming and checking each out and weighing what works for you!
