Welcome! Bienvenido!
What do you do when you have a lot to say… stories that need to be told… adventures that need to be shared? Well, as my neighbor Lynn says, create a Blog! And that is what I have done. It hasn’t been easy, rather it’s been a tech challenge. But I’m up for it.
I spent 30+ years working in human resources management. During that time, I traveled extensively. So much so, that I earned Platinum status for life on American Airlines. This means that I flew over 2 million miles in my lifetime. Wow, huh? Stay tuned for my travel stories & adventures.
I retired in early 2019 while living in South Florida. I then moved to Dallas, Texas where I spent the next 2 years, much of it indoors due to the Global Pandemic (COVID-19). I decided to sell everything and moved back to Mexico in August, 2021. I spent a year in Veracruz, where my family is from. After a weekend getaway to Puerto Vallarta in March, 2022 (my first time!), I fell in love with the city and moved to Marina Vallarta, Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco in August 2022. From there I decided to try a new area and moved to Bucerias, Nayarit in August 2023. This city in a neighboring State, is only 30 minutes North of Puerto Vallarta. And that is where I am today.
I was born in Mexico; my parents decided to move our small family to Los Angeles, California many, many years ago. I was completely educated in the USA, worked and retired there.
My stories include my many moves across the USA over my career. I have visited and stayed overnight in 36 of the 50 United States, plus Washington, DC. I moved a total of 17 times in my adult life, the vast majority of those moves were work related. Since I moved to Mexico, I have moved 3 times in 3 years… and counting.
Hopefully I have whetted your appetite to hear more. Check my BLOG on this site to read my stories. I look forward to hearing from you!
