Together with my retired Firefighter Hubby and our now 16-year-old twins, we immigrated to Mexico in 2012 from Southern California to create our lives anew.
We have been featured on Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post, Elephant Journal and Yucatan Times, in addition to co-authoring several popular anthologies on moving to and living in Mexico.
Eight years into our Mexico Adventure, we continue to embrace our re-invented, re-inspired lives where tacos and fun are part of our daily round!

“Katie tells it like it is, the good, the great and the not so good. She is very encouraging but honest and doesn’t sugarcoat. And that has helped me immensely in narrowing down my search for the perfect place to retire in Mexico. I will be making the move soon and won’t hesitate to use her services.” ~Sylvia
