When my wife and I first moved to the Riviera Maya in 2009, we both taught at the international school in Puerto Aventuras.  Even though our combined income was not a whole lot on teachers’ salaries, we still desired to indulge in the delicious international cuisine that exists in the community.  Surprisingly, so long as we did not order the Surf and Turf every night, eating out more often than not became very doable.   Hence, in nearly three years we have discovered what we believe are the best food deals in Puerto Aventuras for two people, under 150 pesos.

Mexico remained the most visited country in the world for U.S.-originating travelers in 2011, being the destination for a third of the 58 million Americans who traveled outside the country last year, according to the latest Commerce Department data.

If you are thinking about a Mexico retirement, some excellent options are the marina and golf communities on the Caribbean – i.e. the stretch of gorgeous beaches running south of Cancun.  One example of each is Bahia Principe for golf and Puerto Aventuras for marina.

Pinterest is not new to the Internet but its one week new to me. It has actually been out more than a year and is experiencing phenomenal growth.
