How I Moved to Medellín: From Mérida, Mexico to Colombia

Описание: After 12 months in Mérida and the successful completion of my dental services, it was time for the next chapter. In this video, I share exactly how I moved from Mérida, Mexico to Medellín, Colombia, including the real-life travel decisions, logistics, and lessons learned along the way.

Originally, I planned to take the Tren Maya, but luggage limitations made that option impractical. Instead, I chose the reliable ADO Bus from Mérida to Cancun, a decision that proved to be both comfortable and efficient for long-distance travel with multiple bags.

Before flying onward, I spent two restful days at the Villa de Parma Resort, giving myself time to recharge, reorganize, and prepare for international travel. That pause made all the difference before boarding my flight and finally arriving in Medellín, a city known for its vibrant culture, affordability, and expat-friendly lifestyle.

This video is perfect if you’re:
• Considering moving abroad after medical or dental tourism
• Planning a long-term or permanent move to Medellín
• Traveling Mexico without a car and managing luggage-heavy travel
• Curious about ADO buses vs. Tren Maya
• Exploring life transitions later in life or as a solo traveler

I walk you through the transportation choices, accommodations, mindset, and practical tips that helped make this international move smooth and stress-reduced.

👉 Watch until the end for honest insights, travel tips, and what I wish I’d known before relocating to Colombia.
