Elyse Y. Robinson - Black Woman In Mexico

The best bank for US travelers and expats.

When I come through customs I'm harassed and no one stalks you when you're in the store here.

2 years, 3 months...and he put a stop to it!

Can you really come here without speaking Spanish and get a job?

Exchange rates and how they affect you as someone that lives in another country.

Can you get all your butters and oils here? High end, low end hair and body care products are available here. Mexico City has everything and I don't want or miss anything here.

What's it like being Black in Mexico? It's amazing!

Tacos! Tacos! Tacos! Food Poisoning, my favorite foods in Mexico, and I've been crying my ass off.

Do I miss the United States? Of course! But it's getting to the point where I'm not as homesick anymore and I can do without certain things I can only get in the US. *cough Chick Fil A and Popeyes*

The ridiculous process I went through to become a Mexican National (Permanent Resident) and YES! you still have to file taxes once you leave the country.

Launch of my web site BeAForeigner.com and $25 Starbucks gift card giveaway. I also speak about The Lonely Life of an Expat and WHY it's so lonely and what you can do to try and fix it.

An earthquake, a dog fight, a half dead dog, and a rash all in one day.

I had my first interview here at a tech start-up company. There are definitely huge differences between interviewing in Mexico and the US.

I talk about how different health care is here in Mexico compared to the United States and how access to care is so much easier to obtain here. You don't have to sell your soul as much. ;)

I talk about one of my peeps who got robbed on Tuesday, how safe it REALLY is in Mexico City, safety in the United States, and how safe I feel in Mexico City.

I talk about my nonprofit and my other project BeAForeigner.com. My nonprofit Undefeatable Foundation is to help you travel and learn a language while BeAForeigner.com sends out daily opportunities to move abroad.

I talk about how much fun you can have for FREE and why you should NEVER be bored in Mexico City.

I talk a little bit about the history of bullfighting in Mexico and my opinion on it.

It's super easy to bring your small cat or dog to Mexico!

I can get anything and everything here delivered and it makes my life SO MUCH easier!
