About

Barby Blanco

Barby Blanco, the heart and soul behind Merida Moves, embodies the essence of Yucatan. 

As a proud Yucatecan, devoted mother to two growing boys, and an integral member of a large, loving Yucatecan family, Barby’s life is deeply intertwined with the culture and traditions of her homeland. 

Her passion for sharing this rich heritage with others is at the core of her work and personal life.

With a law degree from the Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán (UADY), Barby’s professional expertise in relocation and real estate is matched by her commitment to making her clients feel at home in Merida. 

Her approach goes beyond business transactions; it’s about fostering connections, sharing experiences, and integrating clients into the local community. 

Barby takes great joy in opening her home for traditional celebrations like Hanal Pixán, inviting clients to join her family in these deeply cultural gatherings. These moments are not just about sharing Yucatecan customs but about creating a sense of belonging and family among her clients.

Barby’s mantra, “Ask Barby,” reflects her dedication to being a constant source of support, guidance, and friendship. Her ability to blend professional acumen with personal warmth has made her an invaluable ally to those making Merida their home. Through her work, Barby has not only facilitated the transition for many into Merida but has also enriched the local community by weaving new threads into the fabric of this vibrant city. Barby Blanco and Merida Moves symbolize the bridge between dreaming of a life in Mexico and living the dream in Merida, creating a welcoming community for all.
