Sandra Cesca

There is much information on the internet today about Mexico...living in Mexico, retiring in Mexico, working in Mexico, buying property in Mexico and yes....even staying away from Mexico! My intention in writing this blog is to focus on how I made my escape to Mexico. I get asked all the time how I did it and why I chose Puerto Vallarta.
Given the many challenges that people now face as the world and especially the United States seem to be spinning out of control, contemplating an escape route may be more a possibility now than ever before. This blog is for you...adventuresome or not...young or not...rich or not.
Live where life is far less stressful, the weather warm, the ocean nearby, the colors vibrant and the people most friendly. Best of all, you can do this, like me, on $1200/month.
I will include practical aspects, cultural information, and many stories helpful in beginning life in Vallarta as I have experienced them. I trust you will enjoy my adventure and take from it what may work for you. I will answer your questions here or email me at: [email protected] But remember, many others out there have the same questions and are hoping to find the answers here.

My name is Sandra. I moved here in 2008 as a stressed-out, older single career woman with two grown kids. I was ready for a new chapter in my life in a warm, tropical paradise. I live here full time and have managed to get myself involved in many activities. No, I can't tell you all of them!If you want to know more about my past, check my bio under About. Otherwise, I mostly live in the present and really enjoy helping folks rediscover themselves through discovering Vallarta.
