Welcome to My Blog!!

I don't know what's been happening lately but we are getting more brave as Americans.  With house hunting going international and expat communities popping up all over the world, Americans are discovering a new way of living.

I started thinking way when at the beginning of this year (2015), I was displaced due to a fire inside my apartment.  I was living in a hotel in a small one room suite, and searching for 5 months for an apartment.  The ones I could find were too small and wanted too much.  Moving in fees were almost enough to secure the USA national debt!!

2 months rent and a months security.  I needed 3,000 just to move in and they required a 700+ credit score and a $145 application fee to tell me my score was too low. Then, I needed to have a monthly income of $4,000. a month, another requirement.  Whatever happened to just asking your last few landlords if you paid your rent on time.  I'd pass that one with flying colors!!

Anyway, this pushed me out of the United States and right into Mexico.  The USA is pushing alot of people out because there are whole communities of Americans down here.  Not only am I paying half of the rent, but I didn't need a major overhaul to get a house here. That is what I'll share with you in this blog and I'm looking forward to it. For now, I'll share my sunset with you. I hope this will be delightful for you.
