Some do it for the weather, some do it for the adventure and some do it just because they love the country and the people. But whatever your personal reasons are, moving to Mexico is not an easy step to make and it is not for everyone.

Cohan’s observations of life in Mexico are excellent. He does a wonderful job of painting visual images with his words. When we were in the midst of selling our house and all our worldly possessions, if I had any doubts about why we were doing this, I would pick up this book and read a few chapters and the reasons would all rush back to me. ![]() Kitchel recalls her tale of buying property, building a home and moving to the Yucatan.
