Read Gringoes by Charles Portis, about poor American expats in the Yucatan. On my list for Best Things of 2022.

Looks like a nice way to spend a few months. Why suffer the Canadian winter when you don't have to?

“ What more could I ask for?”

A better chair? You’ll be physically destroyed if you sit in that for months on end.

We skipped the Upper Peninsula Michigan winter for the first time and came to Saint Augustine. I'm so glad you can leave the country. We'll be praying for you,

Best of luck! I've been living in Playa for 2 years and love it. I'll drop you a line over email.

Foreigners who are killed are usually drug trafficking. Not saying everything is safe. Plenty of petty crime and corruption. But cartel violence is not random. Yucatan is very different from the Border as tourism is the golden goose.
