Hola!
A few weeks ago I packed up the cat and dog and moved to Playa Del Carmen. Best thing about my job, I can go anywhere to work. Got myself a cute little Mexican apartment a few blocks from the beach for $700 Canadian. Includes all utilities, including air conditioning.
Amazing how much more that would cost in Vancouver. Sigh. Viva Mexico!
And Romero, pick up your damn phone. That weird number is me calling you on Skype!

Seriously ghost, I am very happy for you.ac_drinks You are living the dream. Soon, the Iron Chink plans on getting out of the fucking Canadian cold.
Yeah, and it includes everything. Internet. Air. Electricity. Things are crazy cheap down here. The only things I've seen overpriced are suntan lotion, beach towels, bug spray and good quality dog food.
My place isn't super fancy. I chose to go the Mexican way than the tourist. Although I did look at a two bedroom, two bathroom, place in Playacar that had two swimming pools, a golf course, gym, a small yard, and all amenities for about $1,450 a month. It's a gated community tho and it didn't include the electricity. It was a beautiful place, but in the end, I picked the simpler one.
And the weather is amazing. I flew out of Toronto (I was staying at my Moms place for a bit) in -30 weather, straight into +25. It was simply beautiful.

I've been to Playa Del Carmen quite a few times. In fact I have some time share there. It's beautiful and a lot quieter than Cancun. Great place to just relax and decompress.

I love Mexico as a vacation spot, it's one of my faves. It has it all over any Caribbean Island I've been to.
I've been to Puerta Vallarta, Mazatlan, Cabo, Cancun, Cozumel, and Playa. IMHO, Playa Del Carmen is superior to the other more common vacation destinations in Mexico.

We are on opposite sides on most issues for sure, but that doesn't mean we can't be civil towards each other. I wish ghost all the success in the world in her career and her new adventure in her Caribbean paradise. I hope she drops by from time to time with updates.

Weak as shit, Gary. Everyone knows that all they have to do is keep me wet and I'll be fine.
BTW, reading the Tartan Drag Queen on a beach would be dangerous. That turd of a book would put anyone to sleep

Yeah, it's just like that. I get up early and walk my dog on the beach. Then I do some shopping. Then I relax. Walk my dog again after dinner and work in the evening. Sometimes I go for a swim.

It's a very large expat community, which is very helpful. There's a lot of English here, and plenty of Mexicans are patient with someone like me who speaks very poor Spanish.
Getting my place was easy. My landlady speaks English. I have a couple from Russia across the hall and my downstairs neighbors are from Ottawa.

hi ghost..welcome back..my brother retired and bought a house next door in Tulum......he sold it this year as he could not get health insurance coverage from any canadian carrier...he really liked it there but decided he couldn't risk being overseas without health coverage.......
he did however, like the fact he made an extra 20% due to the current USD exchange rates...i think we were par or better when he bought it way back when.....cheers

Well down there you don't have to be.
I was like you when I first started vacationing in Mexico and the Caribbean but then I started to notice that there were women of all shapes and sizes wearing bikinis and two piece bathing suits and no one even gave it a second thought.
Now after a day or so of being there I'm like "screw it", I'm wearing what I want to wear and if anyone doesn't like it, they don't have to look.

I could not see myself changing now, but it doesn't really matter anyway..
The last thing we would spend our money on right now is a Mexican holiday for ourselves..
That would be very irresponsible of us..
It is fun to dream though and I do like reading about ghost's life and your past adventures in the Caribbean.

Well maybe when things get better you can treat yourselves.
Everyone needs some down time and a little fun now and then. And most of all couples need some "alone" time in a romantic setting.......that's where the bikini also helps.

That's for sure. I bought bug repellent while on a trip to Chichen Itza once and I don't remember exactly what it cost but it was really, really expensive.
On the up side, the stuff really worked. I think it was something similar to the pure DEET the US government used to issue to the soldiers in Vietnam.

Yes. The majority of them keep chickens and roosters. There's a lot of poverty here and having these animals guarantees fresh eggs and meat. It's quite sad. If you take the bus out to the major mall, you go through a district that is nothing but shacks. No plumbing. Dirt floors. Children playing in the rubble. It's very humbling, especially when you think that these people's jobs cater to rich tourists.Quote from: "ghost"

That's true in most of Mexico. Years ago on a trip to Puerto Vallarta we wandered into a part of town that was off the beaten path and it was just as you described; shacks, dirt floors, children playing in refuse piles, etc. You wouldn't think those kinds of conditions existed in or near the heavy tourist areas but they do. It's a real culture shock when you see it first hand.

What, dirt floors in their trailers??ac_huh
Only the well to do ones live in trailers and sometimes they convert old school buses into summer homes.
Seriously, in many parts of that area, especially where the coal industry has been killed; people live in what can only be considered shacks. Many of them have no indoor plumbing or electricity or any of the normal living conditions you and I take for granted.

I drove through West Virginia in my last year of uni. I wasn't behind the wheel(No East Asian driver rule haha) and I don't know if we passed through the Appalachia region. It didn't really seem that bad from a view riding shotgun anyway. Lower income for sure, but certainly not the kind of poverty ghostie sees on a typical bus ride.

It's not the entire area, it's just certain pockets of poverty that range through WV, NC, TN. and KY. Actually Appalachia and the Smokey Mountains are beautiful areas. My parents have land in western NC. and when my dad finally fully retires (good luck with that) they are going to build a house and move there permanently. Cost of living and taxes are much lower in that area than it is in the NYC metro area.

They might be "fat and stupid" but they are smart enough to stay clear of that awful, shitty waste of good paper called the Tartan Dragon.
Well maybe not all of them; I think some of them use it line bird cages or light fires.

I didn't think that there were still people in that area who had dirt floors and no plumbing though.

I have to wonder how much of shows like that is bullshit and how much is real. Notice how they all live in shitty houses and talk like uneducated slobs but yet they almost all drive brand new 40,000 dollar pick-up trucks?
Also I had no idea how much ginseng root went for. The payouts are outrages.

no kidding.....always seems to be a camera around...even the bad guys that are ambushing the good guys seem to have a camera crew...staging perhaps ??? reality ???.....good for a laugh anyway.....in any case one of my old partners used to own a bar at Hauser lake in Idaho (across from Hayden lake which was the US headquarters for the various white supremest groups)......in the absolute middle of nowhere, very remote and very very scary.....i went there with him (during the 80's) on several occasions...there is not an inkling of a doubt but that if i were not with him i would not have gotten out of there alive.... made those Appalachian guys look positively advanced......
one quick true story(short version)....the county sherriffs dept was ordered by some agency in wash. to diversify...so they hired a mexican male and female cop and put them on patrol in the same cruiser......at some point a few of the good old boys faked some big late night disturbance at the bar and they sent these two mexican cops out to investigate...they were shot in their cruiser when they pulled up..... investigations turned up no suspects......no one was ever charged.....no more hiring of mexicans......problem solved...there were zero black folks in the county...
we used to go to a roadside bar on sunday afternoon and watch when the white supremacists were marching...they would be on once side of the highway with their banners......a bunch of liberal folks, many colored, (bused in) would be marching on the other side with their banners....and hundreds of cops on horseback on the boulevard in between...got very entertaining at times.......ah the good old days

My husband and his friends hunt elk, mule deer and bear in Northern Idaho and even for a big white guy like him it can be dangerous. He has told me that if you wander into an area that you shouldn't be in, you better have a good reason to be there because if not, you will disappear.
I don't like when he goes hunting there I much prefer him to stay in state or go south to Oregon or Utah.

i know the area well.....we camped a little further south at Dworshak lake/dam area for years with friends from Boise.....i love Idaho...Boise would be in my top five locations in the USA...but like your husband says..if you take the wrong fork in the road you may simply disappear...too much dope and drugs mfgs around and strangers are unwelcome.....you know Mark Furman ended up in northern Idaho...seems about right......i think a place for freemen is ok

Funny thing about these "no-go zones" is they exist anywhere you have groups of people following a political or social ideology that is at odds with the rest of society. Now tell us again how they don't exist within Muslim communities that are known to foster radicalism.
