Living in Cabo Pulmo
Mexico · desert
Cabo Pulmo is a tiny hamlet of roughly 150 people right by the sea in Mexico. The climate is desert. It sits well off the usual tourist trail though personal safety is worth weighing carefully. A typical month of living costs around $1,300. Healthcare is reasonable, and the internet can be patchy for heavy remote work. People come here for diving, swimming, quiet days.
È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio. Chi nasce in Mexico è cittadino, quale che sia la nazionalità dei genitori.
