Hi! We are Dianne, Guillermo and Che seeking paradise in Ensenada, Mexico. (Che missed out on this trip). It is located on the Baja California peninsula only 70 miles south of San Diego. We had high expectations for our visit with easy access to the USA, mild weather, scenic ocean views, fresh seafood and Mexico's wine country nearby! Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more videos in a couple of more Mexican cities and then we're off to Europe (Spain and Portugal) seeking our paradise on a different continent. Now let's find out how Ensenada measures up based on our forever home requirements checklist.

With a budget of $200k usd, we review each city to meet our requirements checklist in hopes to find our little piece of paradise and settle in a forever home. Thank you for watching and sharing our experiences!
