Alfredo Linares and Raegan Kline relocated to Mexico from Los Angeles due to fears of deportation amid changing immigration policies after Trump's reelection. With debts totaling $20,000 following their closure of a pop-up restaurant, they drew from their wedding gift of $10,000 to navigate this challenging transition. Overcoming months of instability, they are now settling down in Puerto Vallarta, seeking to build a future together as a family and entrepreneur after 20 years of living illegally in the U.S.
"I really didn't feel safe. Every morning I would wake up saying, 'If we don't go and something happens to him, I'll never be able to forgive myself.'"
"I lived in the shadows for 20 years. I'm 38 years old, so I don't think I have 10 more years of living in the shadows when I'm trying to build a business and grow as a family, as an entrepreneur."
