  • Mexico vs Costa Rica for Black Women Retirees | Roshida and Stephanie aren't traditional retirees -- we're not over 60 -- but we're living the retirement dream by moving abroad. Roshida is now a resident of Mexico and lives in Mexico City. Stephanie is moving to San Jose, Costa Rica in a few days! Plus we've interviewed a whole bunch of Black women in their 50s, 60s and 70s who have retired abroad. Tell us where you're considering in the comments.

    Hey Stephanie...Funnily enough, avocados are fruits. To be more specific, an avocado is a single-seeded berry. You might be used to avocados in a vegetable-like role at the dinner table, but looking closely you'll see they are biologically a fruit.

    Elder millennial here living in the states as part time retired nurse. I love this video and the work these ladies are doing. I'm absolutely here for loving abroad and living a nomadic lifestyle. The only thing that bothered me about listening to this was the fact that there is a differentiation between America (USA) and Mexico and Costa Rica, when in fact these areas are all apart of America. So people living in Costa Rica and Mexico are still Americans too. I was reminded of this my first time in Costa Rico when i was corrected by a local. I didn't make this this mistake in Mexico. America isn't just USA (the corporation)

    Excited to find this channel before the summit next month in Oct. Years ago, I was a flight attendant and we travelled to Mexico City. We, the crew, were not there long enough to tour, but looking out of the window of my hotel, the size and buzz even at night was intriguing. Fast forward, last year, I met a young 23-year-old white guy who posted an article on the benefits of living in Mexico, but working online and doing business in the US. I said I would read it later. Before I could review his article, I have met white, Black and Latino that live part-time in Mexico and Puerto Rico, many in their 20s and 30s. Again, I said I would deep dive, but didn't. Your channel has pushed me to know more...Now!

I just book my first trip to Costa Rica Rohrmoser area this month! How do I find the exodus expats in Costa Rica?

    OMGoodness! So glad your channel was recommended to me. Maybe because I pulled up a few "Learn Spanish" videos(studied French in school). Will say I travelled to Puerto Rico years ago, and when the lady assisting people at the airport asked me a question in Spanish and I answered in English, she waved me off angrily to someone bi-lingual. LOL.

Guadalajara is the 3rd largest city in Mexico and has plenty to offer if one desires living in a large city. It took a couple years to really appreciate living here. Mexico most likely has what you're looking for in a place to live. What would be an ideal place to live abroad? Weather? Population? City or rural? @@MarshelleHarris

    Can I be honest? Its hard for me to get into these types of conversations because one person takes up so much space in the convo. Roshida should consider pausing and letting Stephanie speak more and ask her questions throughout. This just bothers me because I experience this with people that take over entire convos and go on and on. Anyways, this just stood out to me. Also, I'm going to Africa to settle down fyi - would love to visit these places though.

    In Costa Rica you have both the permanent market (mercado central) on each town and you also have the farmers market (feria del agricultor) on each town once a week where local farmers bring and sell directly their produce
    There are buses that go everywhere in Costa Rica. Just that same as in México better if you live in a city center since most buses go out and arrive there

    As an American a Black American I personally feel the reason we don't learn or are taught multiple languages (although in 2023 and years to come) I think we will improve and learn more languages, is because we have fifty English speaking states. Think about it. Let me explain. If I'm in Denver and then I travel to North Dakota, I'm still speaking English, hearing English when I get there. From Clevland to Nashville, same thing, etc. etc. Whereas, if I'm in Mexico speaking Spanglish to Paris, now I'm speaking French. Finland speaking Finnish, to Africa (multiple languages and tongues) to Portugal where Portuguese will be spoken. Get it? That's why I feel Americans don't speak several languages, however, I think we are learning more languages today and in the years to come. This is just my opinion. I'm entitled to have one.
