Retired in Rosarito, Mexico

Описание: Brighton West interviews M and Les Widd, a couple who left San Diego behind to embrace the beauty, affordability, and community spirit of life in Rosarito, Mexico.

They share their incredible journey: what convinced them to move, how they bought and transformed their dream home, and why the cost of living in Rosarito is a fraction of the price in Southern California. M and Les give us a transparent look at their finances, including real estate investments, rental income, and day-to-day living expenses—plus, the pros and cons of using Airbnb versus long-term rentals.

They also open up about healthcare south of the border, describing their experiences with local doctors, pharmacies, and hospitals, and explaining how most health services are not only affordable, but also surprisingly high-quality.

Language barriers? Les is fluent in Spanish, but M’s journey of learning (and why it’s crucial for expats) will resonate with anyone considering moving abroad. The couple also discusses how the expat community impacts life in Rosarito in both positive and challenging ways—from rising property prices to how foreigners give back by supporting orphanages, the elderly, and animal rescue groups.

Finally, we tour their gorgeous, airy home and get practical advice for anyone dreaming of retiring in Mexico. Don’t miss their top tips: connect with the community, embrace local culture, and always keep learning!
