Status: Single

Employed or Retired: Retired

Where are you living now / where are you from: Presently I’m living in Ajijic, MX, and my plan is to stay here for this year, and then relocate to PV, provided I can find a suitable place for my 2 dogs and me for a reasonable rental amount. I’m also planning on visiting Puerto Vallarta a couple of times this year to get a sense of the surroundings.

Timeframe for a move: December of 2013

Where else are you considering: No where else at this time.

Why Vallarta: It’s a beautiful city, with a great deal of social activities, and a good mix of expats interspersed within the Mexican community. I want to have a better grasp of the Mexican language before I move and liked the idea of spending my first year in Ajijic and learning the language in a pleasant settings like the Chapala area.

How can ExPats in Vallarta assist you: I hope to be able to develop some friendships on here, and build a good friendship with people on here. I want to be able to ask for help when I need it so I can make, at least, a few less mistakes by asking for this help. One of the biggest obstacles is finding a home with a large back yard for my dogs, and I hope that by talking with others that are presently living in PV, they will help guide me and make the transition smoother.
