What is life like as an expat in your area?

When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...

"Renovating old colonial homes, enjoying the beach, learning about the Mayan culture," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Yucatan, Mexico.

"Tequis is a small, colonial town that caters to weekend tourists, mostly from Mexico City and surrounding environs. Many of them own weekend homes here and come to get away from the hub-bub of big city life. Local denizens are very family oriented and making a living is just a normal part of everyday life. No big corporate presence here, just small businesses and many restaurants. Tons of small specialty shops," commented one expat who made the move to Tequisquiapan, Mexico.
