I've never felt more peace, more peace of mind. 'más tranquilidad', I'm more tranquil than I've ever been in my life and this is coming from a guy that was born in Scotland so I'm a very LONG way - worlds away - from my birthplace in Glasgow in Scotland.
Consider Living in Guatemala?
I don't know if it's going to be the same for you, but I would certainly encourage you to consider living or retiring in Guatemala.
The climate truly is magnificent and if you can enjoy the same peace of mind that my wife and I are enjoying right now, I know that you're going to be extremely happy living in Guatemala.
Living in a new, affordable sub-tropical country like Guatemala - the 'Land of Eternal Spring' - and exploring a colorful and different culture can be an incredibly satisfying and enjoyable experience.
However, having lived in 11 different countries before making my final move to Guatemala, I also appreciate that it can be a challenge starting a new life abroad.

The cost of living in Guatemala is far more affordable than the U.S. and Costa Rica so your dollar goes a LOT further living in Guatemala. I don't know if you'll love Guatemala as much as we do, but I would certainly encourage you to consider living or retiring in Guatemala.

I live in Texas but I've been to Cayala multiple times since I have family in Guatemala. Its a beautiful area of the city. It contains nice restaurants, plenty of shopping stores, and even a church that the Pope had a part in designing. If you are thinking about going, definitely do I don't think it will disappoint. Just be sure to figure out ways of transportation out before arriving. Hope you have a splendid time in the beautiful country of Guatemala.

Hi, and thank you for this awesome information about Guatemala. I am a Guatemalan American and I never thought I was going to say this, but after living in beautiful California for 33 years my wife and I, we are planing to retire in Guatemala, and we're looking into Cayala.

Wow, interesting info.
-
Thanks for the information, very interesting.

I've been looking at Paraguay a lot, but I've been looking at a few backup places, and Guatemala is on that list. I can easily fly there from Orlando as they have many direct flights. Also, what I've been reading is that residency is pretty simple to get. I'm not sure about citizenship.

❤Nice words about our country thanks you

Great presentation, I have visited many countries including three American Ex Pat favorites such as Mexico, Belize and Costa Rica (live in Laguna Hills CA now) but I would say you are very correct about Guatemala. Besides Cayalá, I would definitely retire near Antigua Guatemala, Zones 15, 14, 10, 4, 16, even 11 and near El Zapote in zone 1 all in Guatemala City as well as some really great places near Monterrico Santa Rosa, Xela/Atitlan, Huehuetenango, Rethalhuleu, Chiquimula and for adventure even Izabal though it is very hot and humid up there. Great video, enjoy paradise! 🙏🌴🌳🌲🇬🇹

Thanks you for ensenar Guatemala ..muy bonito lugar saludes desde California

Keep in mind, Cayala is one of the most expensive, residential, private places to live in Guatemala. Not everyone can afford to by or rent in Cayala and enjoy all the first-class services and amenities offered in Cayala and/or in any other afluent areas in Guatemala. Of course, afluent expats can afford to live wherever they chose to do so. As it is usually the case in most countries, USA included, where I reside now, a vast majority of the population lives in average, less affluent areas. Never the less, thank you for the positive PR about Cayala.
