I am a retired teacher from Minnesota. I moved to California, taught a few years there, but the cost of living was incredible, so I moved to Tampa, Florida. Employment is really bad, so I am moving up my goals to living in Mexico. I am lucky to have a pension and some money put away. If things don't change soon, I will look at my stay in Florida as as a long vacation, then pack my bags and move on the gulf side of Mexico. I am single so don't need much. I have always on retireing to Mexico, it just might be sooner than I thought.
I joined expat.com on 24 March 2009.
