Mark and Monika Cornejo

 In Alaska, Member Profiles, Thinking of Moving to Vallarta, US, Where We are From

CornejoStatus: Couple

Employed or Retired: Semi-retired

Where are you living now / where are you from: We live in Palmer Alask.  We are a retired military couple we have called home a lot of different places.

  • Mark- Born in Salinus, CA
  • Monika- Seattle, WA

Timeframe for a move: End of this year or next year. We haven’t talked to anyone about the logistics of a move like this. We hesitate to ask the reality places in PV because they would NEVER leave us alone. I would like to talk to some expats who already lives in P.V.  Is there a community where a lot of expats live? What to do to keep active.?

Where else are you considering: No where else. I think we’d just stay in Alaska.

Why Vallarta: Well, we have been to Vallarta 23 years in a row now, we are making our yearly trek this coming sun/mon. 2/9/ 2015. We stay at the same hotel every time. “Hacienda Buenaventura”

Of course the people would be my first reason for moving and the beauty that the P.V. area

How can ExPats in Vallarta assist you:  Border documents, animals, community of ex pats, classes in Spanish and art, home or condo, bring car or buy one down there., What to bring and what not to bring, Mark does speak Spanish which definetly helps, Utilites

    Well welcome home. 23 years to figure it out. Hehe. This is the place. We are a very, very Expat community. I encourage you to join the American Legion Post #14 at Steve’s Bar. Meetings are first Thursday adn 3 rd. Tuesday every month. Great bunch of guys & gals but I am prejudiced as I am the Chaplain for the group. Tons of stuff to do. Spanish class with Maria Garibay is the best SpanishPV@gmail.com / 322-134-6874. This is a very active Expat town. And it is a safe and reasonable place to live. Ask me any questions as I and my wife have lived here almost 12 years. Fstphoen@juno.com.
