Road Trip To Belize

I’ll be mercifully brief today, as we’ve got to get on the road.

Yesterday afternoon, I flew from Panama City to the Cancun airport, to meet up with Lief (who’d closed our conference in Puerto Vallarta the day before…we’ll have further reports from the scene of that event for you tomorrow) and friend Phil Hahn. Phil had volunteered to make the drive up from Belize to collect Lief and me at the airport and then give us a ride back down to Belize City (where we’ll be all this week for our Live and Invest in Belize Conference).

Why meet in Cancun for a conference in Belize? Because we wanted to take a detour, to see Tulum.

I was last in Tulum 25 years ago. Though I’ve visited Mexico’s Riviera Maya dozens of times since, I’ve not returned to Tulum specifically. In my memory, this is a dirt village. We’re off shortly to take a quick driving tour of the region today before heading south to the Belize border. There’s something in particular here that I’m interested to see.

While Lief reports that Puerto Vallarta is quiet, struggling through an ongoing downturn in tourism and investment, if the airport is any indicator, Cancun is alive and well. A sea of tourists flowed through the international arrivals hall yesterday. I waited an hour-and-a-half in the immigration line, among flipflop-wearing, beach bag-toting masses, then bobbed and weaved my way through the mob outside to find Lief and Phil.

Lief and Phil are calling now for me to join them for breakfast so we can get on our way. As I said, something very interesting is developing in this region of Mexico that I want to see firsthand. More soon.

Kathleen Peddicord has covered the live, retire, and do business overseas beat for more than 30 years and is considered the world's foremost authority on these subjects. She has traveled to more than 75 countries, invested in real estate in 21, established businesses in 7, renovated historic properties in 6, and educated her children in 4.

Kathleen has moved children, staff, enterprises, household goods, and pets across three continents, from the East Coast of the United States to Waterford, Ireland... then to Paris, France... next to Panama City, where she has based her Live and Invest Overseas business. Most recently, Kathleen and her husband Lief Simon are dividing their time between Panama and Paris.

Kathleen was a partner with Agora Publishing’s International Living group for 23 years. In that capacity, she opened her first office overseas, in Waterford, Ireland, where she managed a staff of up to 30 employees for more than 10 years. Kathleen also opened, staffed, and operated International Living publishing and real estate marketing offices in Panama City, Panama; Granada, Nicaragua; Roatan, Honduras; San Miguel de Allende, Mexico; Quito, Ecuador; and Paris, France.

Kathleen moved on from her role with Agora in 2007 and launched her Live and Invest Overseas group in 2008. In the years since, she has built Live and Invest Overseas into a successful, recognized, and respected multi-million-dollar business that employs a staff of 35 in Panama City and dozens of writers and other resources around the world.

Kathleen has been quoted by The New York Times, Money magazine, MSNBC, Yahoo Finance, the AARP, and beyond. She has appeared often on radio and television (including Bloomberg and CNBC) and speaks regularly on topics to do with living, retiring, investing, and doing business around the world.

In addition to her own daily e-letter, the Overseas Opportunity Letter, with a circulation of more than 300,000 readers, Kathleen writes regularly for U.S. News & World Report and Forbes.

Her newest book, "How to Retire Overseas: Everything You Need to Know to Live Well (for Less) Abroad," published by Penguin Random House, is the culmination of decades of personal experience living and investing around the world.
