  • How I Moved To Mexico

    Posted on May 1st, 2009 admin No comments

    A few years ago I decided I wanted to move to Mexico. I had been on long trips to different areas, including tourist hot spots like Cancun, but I had most enjoyed my time in the state of Oaxaca along the coast in Puerto Escondido. After falling in love with the town I had started spending my winters there trying to escape the cold of Massachusetts and taking advantage of the cheaper cost of living.

    Eventually I decided to take the plunge and move their year round, after finding a nice house to buy I decided I needed to move all of my belongings from Mass to Peurto Escondido. This was the beginning of many hours of research trying to figure out exactly how the heck you go about moving that far of a distance across two countries.

    I eventually decided to use a moving company that specialized in moves to Mexico. I got several quotes and probably talked for hours to the representatives, after all this was all my stuff we are talking about here, I had to be sure nothing was going to go wrong. I finally went with Mexico Moving Co because I was the most comfortable with them. They helped me create my menaje de casa, and advised me on the best way to get my FM3 with the least hassle. In the end moving to Mexico was easy for me, although not exactly cheap. The amount I paid though was worth it to know everything I owned was going to end up at my new house safely, and I knew it was not something I could do myself.

    This is obviously the short version of the story but I have been living in Peurto Escondido for the past few years now, and I love it. If you have been thinking about taking a trip to Mexico I definitly recommend it, although be careful you may never want to leave!
