Ricoyo shared how the couple fell in love with Morocco's culture during their honeymoon, which led to the discussion of moving there, saying, "After spending a few days here... I asked her, 'Hey, what do you think about moving to Morocco?' I didn't think I would get the response that I did." This pivotal moment sparked their decision to explore living abroad, highlighting the impact of experience on major life choices.
Arleevia emphasized the feasibility of their relocation, stating, "We work remotely, so we thought it was feasible. We didn't own any property in the US. It was simply a conversation with my employer. They said, 'As long as you get your work done.'" This indicates how remote work and lack of ties to the US facilitated their move.
Ricoyo explained his adjustment to working hours in Morocco, reflecting on the local culture, saying, "My biggest concern was, 'Am I going to be falling asleep talking with clients?' But we've adjusted... It's almost turned into an evening-type position. It's funny because the culture here is kind of a late-night culture anyway." His comments show how adapting to local norms can enhance the experience.
Both expressed appreciation for Morocco's family-oriented culture, especially with their baby on the way. Arleevia stated that safety, healthcare, and the community aspect were significant, indicating a thoughtful approach to their new lifestyle, ensuring they prioritize a nurturing environment for their upcoming child.
