I’ve lived in Boston and New York and Mexico City. Moving back to CDMX in July; I’ve been in Portland 2 years. I’m a permanent resident and this time around do not plan to leave other than to visit family in Portland and California. I love Mexico!

Enjoyed your video. I have lived in CDMX for 13 years. You really understand the life here.

Lived in CDMX for 4 years as an expat. It was amazing!

I was just in Mexico City for a week. I loved all the different modes of public transportation. It felt very safe. Can’t wait to hear your take on actually living there!

Oh! I can’t wait to see Mexico City for the first time in January 2023. Thanks for the video.

Gabrielle helped me get my residency. If you went to get Mexican residency, I highly recommend her as a facilitator. There are so many hoops to jump through and so many things that could go wrong that hiring a good facilitator is worth every dollar.

I love Mexico City. I could consider living there for long periods of time. I know a lot of people like retiring in places like Ajijic, San Miguel de Allende, and Puerta Vallarta. I have not been to any of those places, but from what I hear, they are too small, with not enough museums and variety for me. I am very definitely a city guy. I feel alive and happy in cities.

I personally worked with Gabrielle. I 100% recommend her. She's very responsive and knowledgeable.

As a single female considering a move to Mexico, I really appreciate this video. I also had not previously thought about Mexico City, but I will now give the city a closer look. Thank you!

Mexico City is the only place my husband has visited in Mexico (I’ve been to quite a few places). He absolutely loves it and I think he would choose it as our home in Mexico. Maybe the main reason is that there is street food like every 100 meters😂

In all my travels, Mexico has been one of my favorite countries.

Another great video. Would have loved some info on cost of living in Mexico City compared with other popular expat destinations in Mexico and also information on best neighborhoods to live there. Had never considered Mexico City as a retirement destination, but this video made me think about it.

I watched all the video and I'm mexican hahahaha, that's how good your video is. Saludos!!

I used Gabrielle as facilitator for my permanent residency. She did a thorough, quick and an excellent job. The process was a breeze. She met me at the immigration office early in the morning, by 2:00 PM I walked out with my residency card. Seeing other people that day, who tried to go cheap and do it themselves (and the immigration officer send them a way with a list of requirements or they needed to re file in another office), I was glad I used her services. And by the way, I received much higher quotes from other facilitators. So, she is excellent and reasonable! I would highly recommend her!!!

Gabrielle, this was quite informative. Along with your facilitator skills you are a phenom on all things CDMX. I love this interview! I'm a city girl and was hoping to make Mexico City my home in the future. Now that I know you provide relocation services look for me reaching out to you next year when I return to extend my residency. This is Linda from US.

Gabrielle facilitated "canje process" for my Temporary Residence in Mexico; with her help, I got my residence card the same day in Mexico City. I plan to further utilize her services further for relocation to Mexico. I'd recommend her services to anyone relocating to Mexico.

This was a really great video. Authentic and informative. Thank you!

Very nice video. Thanks Gabrielle

This was an excellent video and im very glad I watched!
