See the video below for a wrap-up of International Living postcards for the week ending June 12.

Last week, Suzan Haskins gave us a whirlwind tour of the soft, sandy beaches and world-class cuisine available in Tulum, the next big thing on the radar on Mexico’s Caribbean coast. The Tulum beaches are rated among the best in the world, and from Suzan’s description it’s easy to see why.

Glynna Prentice also shines the light on Mexico’s Riviera Maya and the new airport that is expected to change the game on southern end of this magnificent stretch of world-class beach anchored by Tulum. According to Glynna, things are already changing, including real estate prices. Right now, for example, Glynna says you can still buy small condos in the low $100,000s. But with all the infrastructure happening on this stretch of coast, prices seem likely to rise. Glynna’s advice? Go now.

In his postcard, IL’s health editor Josef Woodman shows you how you can save thousands on health expenses in the top 10 locations in the world for medical travel. You’ll be amazed how much you can save over U.S. prices on everything from heart bypasses and hip replacements to facelifts and dental surgery. Josef gives the numbers in his postcard, and the savings can be jaw dropping.

IL’s financial editor, Chris Hunter, has one goal: To help you protect and grow your wealth so that you can live the life of your dreams overseas. Read why he’s bullish on Latin America, and why you should be, too.
