Belinda (Bel) Woodhouse, International Living Magazine – Mexico Correspondent

While sitting on a beach in Bali, Bel realized she didn’t want to go back to work. She went home, put in her discharge papers to the Royal Australian Navy and started the journey of becoming a travel writer. After traveling through India, Cambodia, the Americas, Mexico, Panama, Guatemala and teaching English Antigua, she wrote her first article as a travel writer in Qué Pasa Magazine.

Currently living in Cozumel, Bel planned to be there for a year, but it’s now been five years. It’s safe to say she loves her beautiful Mexican island.

In this episode, we’re talking about living part-time in another country, especially during the winter months. We dive into how to research where you’d like to live, your budget depending on what you’d like to experience, quality and cost of healthcare in different countries, amenities, cultural experiences, entertainment, and more.

Bel shares her thoughts, advice, and experiences on ~ Can you live in less than $2,000 a month? Do you need to speak the language? Is it legal to work remotely in another country? What’s the best way to connect with expats in the country where you’d like to live part-time?
