Shannon showed off a bright smile for a selfie she took while completely submerged in the clear waters. In her caption, she expressed the joy she was feeling from the completely serene moment. She said:

"I can't think of a better place to social distance! With over 6,000 cenotes in the Yucatan Peninsula (my new backyard)."

Along with a photo of herself floating in the water, Shannon revealed that she had taken a "huge leap of faith" and left the United States for good.

She explained that the political and social issues in the country had forced her to leave. She confirmed that she had officially signed a lease and is living in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.
