Moving to Mexico
You can try Chapala lake area, it's in the middle of the country near Guadalajara...so it would be cheaper...and it'a a reasonable drive from Puerto Vallarta..it's a quiet place though...if you want cheap places you have to live away from the beaches (not the bitches)... I don't know how long you would last with $5000 but I guess you can get near your 6 months goal....let see....$300 to rent a place ($1800/6 months), $300/month for food...+ other expenses (gym, margaritas, etc...) , you'll have little more then $1000 left for gear...if you don't party to much...do some research on the net and you should find everything you need.....btw...I would personaly go with the idea from a previous post..wich is get a job as a bar tender with a travel club and get everything for free...you'll have you $5000 for gear and everything else you need....that's the best idea unless you can not control yourself and booze to much...then you'll screw your cycle and your health....it's just a matter of self control....good luck bro..if I was younger...dream..dream..

If you are serious Ensenada and Guadalajara are great and inexpensive, remember Mexico is a third world country and poverty and crime are ubiquitous.
Mexico is also socialist and corrupt, Their tax rate makes ours look low, even though it is ignored.
And believe it or not your not the first gringo to have this idea, and I haven’t heard of too many ex-patriots
getting wealthy south of the boarder.
If you just want to get by as a bartender or work on a fishing boat as a tour guide, all the tourist type towns have work, but they are more expensive to live.
