Choosing where to live in Mexico can feel overwhelming - especially when every city looks perfect online. In this episode of Live by Design - Mexico Edition, host Taniel Chemsian sits down with Troy Zulich to share honest, firsthand lessons from his own move abroad.

Troy breaks down how he evaluated different Mexican cities, including Morelia and Querétaro, based on real-life factors like cost of living, safety, culture, language, and community integration. They discuss the difference between adapting to local life versus trying to recreate an American lifestyle, and why mindset plays a critical role in long-term happiness.
