Suggestions for neighborhood/small hotels/B & B's for older couple visiting in January

We're a retired couple planning to spend 2 weeks in Mexico City in January. We'd prefer a quieter area that's walkable to restaurants, the standard tourist/cultural sites and convenient to the metro. We'd appreciate suggestions for neighborhoods and small hotels/B & B's that aren't in the middle of a noisy tourist area. We've traveled a good bit and have basic, transactional Spanish.

¿Cuanto pagas anualmente de renta y en que zona?

Y que obtienes por esa renta? Es compartido? Cuantos metros cuadrados? Que ameninades hay? Esta bonito el departamento? Que tan antiguo es el departamento?

Hago esta pregunta para darme una idea de la situacion de vivienda en Mexico

Where to buy a clothes drying rank?

Hello!

I just got to CDMX. Staying here for 2 weeks. I'm in Roma Condesa.

I was out all day looking for a rack to dry my clothes, with no luck.

I thought I'd try my luck and ask over here. Where do you think I could fine one?

Here's an image of what I'm looking for, more or less.

Salary for a family of four?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently making $104k as a construction manager in an entry-level role. With a few more years of experience, I know I could earn significantly more. However, my company has offered me the chance to work fully remote for $90k. The role would still require occasional site visits, and I believe I could negotiate the remote salary down to $85k or even $75k if necessary to avoid the site visits. For context, these numbers are on the lower end for this role in the Bay Area, but they’re manageable given our situation.

Here’s the bigger picture: My wife and I have always dreamed of moving to Mexico City to reconnect with our culture. I’m a DACA recipient, and she was born in Los Angeles. We have two small children who are fluent in Spanish thanks to a full-immersion Spanish program. My wife is currently a stay-at-home mom, and as a family, we already speak Spanish at home.

Right now, we’re able to save $1,000 a month, and ideally, I’d like to increase that savings rate if we make the move. My question is: • What kind of lifestyle can we afford in a relatively good, family-friendly neighborhood in CDMX on this remote salary? • Are there any major expenses or considerations I might be overlooking for a family of four?

I’d love to hear from anyone who’s made a similar move or has insights into living and working remotely in Mexico City.

Thanks in advance!

ESPAÑOL......

Hola a todos,

Actualmente gano $104,000 al año como gerente de construcción en un rol de nivel inicial. Sé que con unos años más de experiencia podría ganar mucho más. Sin embargo, mi empresa me ha ofrecido la posibilidad de trabajar completamente remoto por $90,000. El puesto requeriría algunas visitas ocasionales a proyectos, y creo que podría negociar el salario remoto a $85,000 o incluso $75,000 si fuera necesario. Para contexto, estas cifras son bajas para este rol en el Área de la Bahía, pero manejables considerando nuestra situación.

Ahora, lo más importante: mi esposa y yo siempre hemos soñado con mudarnos a la Ciudad de México para reconectarnos con nuestra cultura. Yo soy beneficiario de DACA y ella nació en Los Ángeles. Tenemos dos hijos pequeños que hablan español fluido gracias a un programa de inmersión total en español. Mi esposa actualmente es ama de casa, y como familia ya hablamos español en casa.

En este momento podemos ahorrar $1,000 al mes, y me gustaría aumentar esa tasa de ahorro si hacemos el cambio. Mi pregunta es: • ¿Qué tipo de estilo de vida podríamos permitirnos en un vecindario relativamente bueno y familiar en CDMX con este salario remoto? • ¿Hay gastos importantes o consideraciones que podría estar pasando por alto para una familia de cuatro?

Me encantaría escuchar de alguien que haya hecho un cambio similar o tenga ideas sobre vivir y trabajar de manera remota en CDMX.

bus hours from Queretaro?

¡Hola! next week i am heading to Mexico City to see Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar leading some meditations and other sessions.

The first event is in Queretaro at 6pm-8pm or so on the 6th.

On the 7th, my friends and I are meeting at 5am in Mexico City to go on a guided excursion.

My question is, is it likely I can get from Queretaro to Mexico City by bus after the event, or should I just skip it and stay the night in Mexico City to meet them on time?

Hay SexShops más orientadas al BDSM?

Siento que la ciudad solo está llena de 1 franquicia y las pocas otras genéricas que he visto no tienen casi nada. Ideal que tmb tengan algún calendario de eventos, por si hay comunidad.

¿Se puede usar transporte público para ir del aeropuerto NLU al aeropuerto MEX?

Voy a viajar a México, y entre las opciones de vuelos siempre aparece para llegar a MEX o a NLU cuando el destino es CDMX. Quiero saber si hay alguna forma de ir de un aeropuerto a otro en bus/metro, para así poder planear mejor los transbordos. Muchas gracias 🙏

Mexican wine testing norms

Hi! I ate at Mari Gold a few days ago and the food was great. One thing that surprised me is that twice I saw a waiter open a bottle of wine, pour some into a glass and drink it before delivering the bottle to the table that had ordered it. He didn't seem to be hiding it at all. Is this common in Mexico as a way to make sure that the wine hasn't gone bad?

¿Expectativa salarial?

Pues ando participando en un proceso de selección para ser becario en uno de los bancos con más presencia en el país y en determinado rubro me piden que ingrese mi expectativa salarial.

La cuestión es que no tengo ni idea de lo que debería poner considerando que voy a ingresar como becario o trainer, que es como ahí les llaman, puesto para el que ni siquiera sé si tienen algún salario contemplado.

Basado en que estoy por terminar mi carrera y no tengo experiencia laboral ¿qué debería ingresar? Es más que nada por rellenar el campo.

Anyone lose an item on a flight to mexico city?

I landed in cdmx(bonito juarez) via aeromexico

When I got to my airbnb, I realized I left my headphones on the plane

Anyone had this happen to them before?

It's hard to get them on the phone. Will the airline just turn in the headphones to the airport lost and found ?

¿La Faena cerrada?

Cuando estuve en CDMX el año pasado, La Faena era mi bar favorito. Pasé ayer y vi que estaba cerrado. Google dice que está "cerrado temporalmente". ¿Alguien sabe algo al respecto?

Recomendación de Barrio

Hola queridos, estoy de viaje y me gustaría quedarme en algún barrio más autentico, actualmente estoy en Condesa y lo estoy detestando, odio entrar a un lugar y que me hablen en ingles wtf!

Me gustaría una zona cool, pero cool mexicano no esta mierda de condesa.

Donde vive una persona cool/alternativa/queer que es creativa y no gana mucho dinero.

Algo similar a el Raval en Barcelona o Neukolln en Berlin.

Los leo gracias 🙏🏼

Which day to visit Coyoacan?

It’s our first full day (Saturday) and we’re here until Wednesday. Really flexible. Would you recommend going to Coyoacan on the weekend or weekday? When looking at traffic yesterday, it was much longer compared to this morning. So I’m wondering if a weekend is better to just spend less time in traffic to get there? But I assume more crowded? Any advice?

Question for those familiar with the film “Happy together, 1997”

Hello! I’m planning to travel in the next couple of days, and every time I think about my trip, I picture myself being in an apartment that looks similar to the one seen on the film mentioned above. I’m curious to know if anyone has any idea of a place/hotel/building that may look like that? I want a nice balcony in a brick retro style building, if that makes any sense.
