Living abroad sounds amazing… until your parents come to visit.

In this episode we talk about Erica’s parents visiting Mérida, Mexico for the first time and everything that comes with hosting family when you live overseas.

Jeff had the job of preparing the house before they arrived which meant scrubbing walls, battling mildew from the humidity, and trying to make everything look perfect before the in-laws landed.

We talk about:

  • Hosting parents while living abroad
  • Preparing your home in Mexico for visitors
  • What family members think when they visit Mexico
  • The funny realities of expat life

Welcome back to This Might Be a Bad Idea, where love, life, and chaos collide.
