My daughter, though has been there all this time. Now my immediate family is all moving to Mexico. - Leon. They are building a great housing complex of 25 homes just outside of leon ten minutes next to a golf course. I love Mexico and will now go every six months ( Yea I am the hardest to let go in my family) Leon is inland and very modern but surrounded by colonial towns all around. good mix if you are still young enough to enjoy the great opportunities for jobs there. Years ago there were so many things you just could not get in Mexico but now you can get pretty much anything and the economy is great. I live in northern Alberta if anyone is interested in seeing what we are doing. I plan to put together an arts academy in Leon with English speaking teachers. dancers, msuicians, painters, actors etc...

I need advice, I have a lawyer working on the case but have little faith in the government here. I know the name and number of the person who will decide on my case. What is the best way to encourage a favorable decision? I know the basic answer but don't know the acceptable method. Invite him/her to a profitable lunch date while using a translator or what??? Please email your advice to digitalblock@vendio.com I would appreciate it greatly! I don’t speak spanish very well and was tricked into getting my atv confiscated while entering Mexico.

Back home I was always in a rush to get things done, there was never enough time to accomplish all that I wanted to. do. Here I have learned to relax and to be more patient, also to remember there is more time then life. We have built a home at the foot of the mountains. We have all the modern accommodations that we had back home . We hear about corruption in Mexico thru Cnn news but so far we have not come in contact with those officials. I have even written a book . When we cross the border into the USA that's when we get into trouble, we had my wife purse stolen in Houston, and cops hide behind every bill board. When it comes to medicine and doctors there is no place like Mexico..would you believe they sit with you and tell you jokes, back home its all bns and he is cautious of you over a loss sued, so the less he says to you the less ammo he feels you can use against him. In Houston before moving into Mexico I spend $8.000 dlls and eight days in the hospital in Houston, and they never found out what what was wrong with me. In Mexico I spend less a hundred bucks and they cured me and that was over 4 years ago..Amen! We have been living in Monterrey Mexico for the past 5 years…It takes a little while to adjust.
