About

My wife and I decided to leave the corporate rat race in the US for a lower stress adventure living abroad. We chose Mexico because of an existing expat community, good internet service, and proximity to our family in the US.
Interests: fishing, walking the beach, and working out.

Occupation

I am Employed.

My expat journey

Progreso de Castro, Yucat谩n, Mexico

Since Jan 2017

Progreso de Castro, Yucat谩n, Mexico

We enjoy the small town beach life of Progreso. We have met some good local people as well as some Canadian and American Expats.
I am still working my US software job out of my house in Mexico.
We like Progreso because its a small town and on the coast. We also like being close to Merida.
Our only complaint so far is the amount of sea weed that collects on the beaches.
