Thanks Meno!
Yeah, so there were a handful of factors of why we settled in Guatemala. 1 of the biggest factors was favorable visa scenarios for foreigners. You are allowed 2 consecutive 3 month visas in Guatemala. Then you are meant to be out of the country for 3 days and can come back and renew your next 6 months.
And there are companies that you pay to just take your passport to Mexico and your passport sleeps 3 nights in Mexico. 🤣
So we were a young couple with a child on the way who were not ready to get married. So Sarah is from England and me the states.
We couldn’t even settle in our own countries unless we got married.
Guatemala seemed the right move based on who we were as people.
