Mexican Presidency published last week a good news for all the residents of the State of Guanajuato where San Miguel de Allende is located, a popular city for Americans and Canadians to retire.

Mexico's Health Care is a mix of several options any Mexican or person living or visiting in Mexico has to take care of his/her health by a constitutional mandate.

FOR DECADES , MEXICO HAS BEEN THE ANSWER FOR MANY AMERICANS, CANADIANS AND EUROPEANS WHEN THEY’VE NEEDED TO CHOOSE A SECOND HOME. TODAY, THE POSIBILITIES OFFERED BY THIS COUNTRY ARE BETTER AND MORE VARIED THAN EVER .
By Monica Lopez
 

Everyone dreams of a second home, from young couples and families who wish to have a permanent holiday retreat, to baby boomers looking for a retirement haven. Choosing the location of the dream involves multiple factors, such as the value of the investment to be made, accessibility, safety, and ultimately, whether this will be a place to spend time comfortably, with all the necessary services, surrounded by like-minded people. The answer for many Americans, Canadians and Europeans, for several decades, has been Mexico. Today, the possibilities offered by this country are better and more varied than ever. Some of the reasons are obvious. The weather is a major pull factor for both Americans and Canadians who look for warmer latitudes during winter. These “snowbirds”, as they are affectionately known, spend four to six months of the year in Mexico, where they never have to put up with a blizzard or de-ice a car. By spending the rest of the year in their home countries, they can stay in touch with their families, handle business affairs and maintain their resident status.

Stephen Kaczor

A Pueblo Mágico is a place where “symbolism, legend, history, important events and day-to-day life” have collided to create a unique result. “They are magic in their social and cultural manifestations, with great opportunities for tourism.” This is a good description from Mexico’s tourism agency, which is more than can be said about SECTUR’s website. Some things are the same everywhere. One constant is that government websites are not the most useful.

Travel in Central Mexico

Colonial Mexico is a fabulous trip to Europe without the dent in your pocket book and without taking out your credit cards. So much of the feeling of European architecture is here in the old colonial centros of the towns like Queretaro, Guanajuato, Puebla, Cuernavaca and of course Mexico City.

Have you ever been door to door in a process similar to "trick or treat" but instead of candy and ghouls, you get popcicles, ice cream, and a little religious awe?
