Grandma and great-grandma often joke that they want to come back as me when they die. I live a very privileged life with my missus. Yes, I admit it! Not only do we get to travel to new places, but I have now lived with her in two countries. One of these is Mexico.
We Lived in Mexico for Half a Year
We lived in Rocky Point from October 2021 to March 2022. The only reason we left was to pursue dreams of potentially building a home in the Land of Enchantment. Unfortunately, that did not pan out.
We Want To See More of Baja
After some serious consideration, the missus and I have decided to return to Mexico. While we enjoyed our time in Rocky Point, however, we’re moving to a different location. There are a few reasons for our decisions:
The missus was the only millennial U.S. ex-pat in her Rocky Point social circles and she wants to find the younger crowd.
Everyone else she knows who travels to Mexico goes to Baja, including the full-time sailors, overlanders, and van-lifers.
Missus found someone who is willing to consider giving us an annual lease on a beautiful lot with mountain views, not far from the beach. (Nothing is decided yet!)
We are ready for a change of pace, space, and faces!
This Will Be Our First Time Exploring Baja
I have driven through Baja California with the missus only once. Grandma, grandpa, and the missus have passed through it about three times. However, none of us have actually explored the state or its southern neighbor.
We start working our way south in just a few days and will pick grandma up from the airport along the way.
Stay tuned!
