At first I was like that won't last, 3 years later he and his girlfriend are still there enjoying the sun, no stress and no plans to come back anytime soon.

If I didn't have kids I could see myself doing something like this as well, don't get my wrong I don't regret having them but they do handcuff you.
thanks....it's a massive internal struggle to pull the plug here. I keep going back and forth in my head if i sell and run. or do i keep it and rent out (the "profit" off the rent isn't enough to keep us travelling month to month so that means we need to spend atleast 6 months here saving money)

i know what the "smart" move is....but fuck it my desire to get out of this city and go sit on a beach is just too much

what are peoples thought's when in a few years hopefully oil and hopefully our dollar has come back (2+ years), do you think prices will continue to still rise another 10+%???
