How are the experiences to live in a big city like Mexico City or in a retirement state like Florida?

It has been a couple weeks since I got my green card and moved to the United States of America.  My husband and I chose to move to Florida, the state where his residence is. It feels kind of a game-changer for us because for the past 4 years we have been living in the largest city of North America, Mexico City. Both places are completely different and I would like to share with you guys from my perspective. Fred Howard Park Beach in Florida, USA. Florida has a great deal more old people residents than Mexico City that has tons of young people living in such a massive dense populated city.  I could say Florida is considerably laid back more than Mexico City that most people want everything going fast.  For the past 4 years, I lived in Mexico City, I have been spoiled by public transportation, so I didn’t drive and nothing was as comparable as in Florida, wherever I go, I need to go by car, just like most cities in the US.

  About me Hey there, Before you see my blog,  I'd like to introduce you about me, My name is.

As I mentioned, Bali, Indonesia, is my home town, I was born and raised in Bali since my childhood to my early adult. I decided to follow my dream to travel the world. It's never been easy as an Indonesian traveler to follow this dream because our passport is one one the weakest passport in the world. That's why through this blog, I'd like to share my experience on the road, despite all the obstacles that I've been through to follow my dream.  It might sound cliche, well, who doesn't like traveling.

As a conscious adult, I know what I want in my life and what I need, so if traveling ...
