They said it....
“Incredibly resourceful, respectful and fun, this book has everything the traveler will need.
Dont expect listings and rating of restaurants and hotels. thats for YOU to figure out, but if you want a friendly guide to walk you through all the bureocratic madness, possbile illnesses, and how to haggle for a hotel room, this is the right book.
Its really the best ive read in my recent research about traveling and living in Mexico.
I cant really describe it any further because you wont believe me that this book is that amazizng. WELL IT IS> SO BUY IT!

Well, it appears that the good folks at Amazon.com are too busy to help me move the blog over to the new, 13th Edition pages for The People’s Guide To Mexico. For that reason, I’ve suspended posting there and will concentrate on keeping this blog… the one you are reading… more up to date.
Hi. Well I am a young 20 and my fiance is from Mexico. I was born and raised in the USA and he wants to go back to Mexico. I am all for it. I have always wanted to go there and a life with him I know will be amazing, no matter where we are. My question is will I be comfortable there. Will I be able to finish school and get a job doing what I love to do, teach? I do speak some spanish and am working on becoming more fluent so the language is the least of my worrys. Will I be safe? If we do go we will be live in Veracruz. How different is the life there from what I am used to. I have heard all the horor stories and I want to know the truth, so anyone who lives there or ever has please let me know what you think..
