ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
Who said retirement was easy? Homeownership is no walk in the park either. While we were in France, we had decided we weren’t going to rent our condo any more. That decision lead to planning improvements and new purchases for our condo in Mexico.
Believe it or not, we did some things in Playa del Carmen that didn’t involve work on our condo. We found ourselves with more free time and honestly, we haven’t really relaxed in Playa since we have owned the place.
As many of you know, this was our third kitchen remodel and happily we learned a lot. The only difference this time was the construction methods used in Mexico, namely, everything is constructed with concrete. That complicated everything.
We had a big agenda for this visit, mostly related to a kitchen remodel. We had one month to specify everything for the kitchen and get the cabinet order finalized. But between entertaining guests and buying stuff for the condo, we did manage some pool time.
Our stay in Playa during November and December was filled with celebrations, visitors, tequila, beach massages, touring ruins, and of course food.
