The Yucatan Living Team

Yucatan Living is for expatriates who are living, working and playing in Yucatan, but especially for those who are discovering this unique location as a possible destination for retirement, starting a new business or owning a second home. Yucatan Living is also a favorite resource for people who prefer to explore this region and its special culture beyond what most tourist websites and guidebooks usually recommend.

As our readership has grown, so has the feedback, which helps us to publish articles specifically of interest for the growing number of people choosing to expatriate to the Yucatan.

Yucatan Living covers practical subjects like the immigration process in Merida or how your fosa septica (pit toilet) works. We publish local stories that reveal the variety of lifestyle choices available to expats. We interview expatriates who live and work in the area to tell how they made a success of moving here. Of course, we also research local services and offer insight into the common problems people face while adapting to a new culture and language.

We publish events, news and support local organizations. We also offer a Facebook page with events, news and other stories of interest that happen suddenly or don't fit elsewhere. Our Facebook page is also a way to learn about our advertisers, who offer products and services specifically designed for expats.

If you want to be notified about all the new things that are put up on the website, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter at the bottom of the homepage. Want to advertise? Find out more here.
