Hola Jean,
We have spent alot of time in Mexico and decided
to spend last winter in Rincon de Guayabitos. This area is 50 miles North of P.V. The beaches
are lovely, great restaurants and
wonderful people. There is a large percentage
of Canadians there. There are many small
villages in this area and should be looked at.
Welcome to Mexico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

: We are a semi-retired Canadian couple planning
: our first road trip to Mexico. We will be
: looking to buy a home but not sure where to
: go! there's sssoooo many beautiful places!
: The Pacific side is all I know at this
: time...don't like hurricanes! Our plan is to
: buy a camper van asap and leave Toronto by
: mid November. We will be looking to buy
: property when we find the right location and
: plan to live in Mexico 6 months of the year
: until we decide whether to move permanently
: or not.
:
: We are on a limited budget....(does that
: sound familliar?), would like to find a
: quiet spot near the beach to rent while we
: look for our home.
:
: My partner was born in France and has lived
: in Canada for 22 years. He learned to speak
: English when he worked in South Africa in
: the '70's. We spent last winter in Europe,
: mostly Spain, and he picked up enough to be
: able to communicate and is looking forward
: to learning to speak fluently. I, on the
: other hand, hablaze Englaze solo (I speak
: only English and I'm sure that I spelled
: that wrong!) but I'm sure I will pick it up
: thru ozmosis eventually.
:
: We'd like to be in an area where there are
: both expatriates and Mexicans. One of the
: big draws to Mexico for me is the people. I
: have found them happy and friendly but would
: also love to have people to socialize with
: that speak English.
:
: I like 75 degrees, sun, no wind, no humidity
: and no pollen. I know....there isn't a place
: in the world that will give me this everyday
: but that's my wish list....
:
: We don't need to be near the border but do
: need to be by the beach! The view is very
: important to us. We live a very quiet life,
: prefer a rural community, and do not like
: any big cities. We have no special needs
: (knock on wood) but good health care is
: always a concern.
:
: Everything about Mexico interests us. The
: warm weather, the natural beauty, the
: history, the people (Mexicans and travelers)
: and a laid back life style.
:
: Any and all suggestions/warnings would be
: appreciated! What do you love/hate about
: your community? Any websites you could
: recomend?
:
: Thank you for any help/information you can
: offer!!!

: The very, very green gringos!!!
