Lolly joins Matt from CDMX and explains how she fell in love with Mexico City and why she chose to make it her base for the last 8 years.  She talks about efforts to combat transnational gentrification in the city, and also shares highlights from her other favorite places around Mexico.  Lolly then talks about growing up in Southern California, living in Madrid, Spain and gives tips for visiting both California and Madrid.  She then talks about unexpected losing her job and subsequently building her fully remote freelance writing business while traveling the world.  Matt and Lolly reflect on their shared experience on the Remote Year program, when they traveled the world together for a full year with other remote professionals, and the impact it had on them.  Lolly shares stories from Croatia, Colombia and reflects on the depth of cultural immersion that is possible when you speak the local language.  FULL SHOW NOTES WITH DIRECT LINKS TO EVERYTHING DISCUSSED ARE AVAILABLE HERE.
