Professional Courtesy and Research
The author chose our name to list as a reference for "relocating" to Mexico without checking with us. I founded International Relocation Services SA de CV in Mexico City over 25 years ago. This normally would be FREE advertising, but since we only do corporate relocation in the major business centers of Mexico, it has been a minor irritation. I am amazed at the 20-30 letters i receive each year for the past many years; each is a request that i send everything they need to know about retiring in Mexico. i have a form letter that i send to each of these inquirers because i feel it would be rude not to; however, the real problem is that our company is in a book for "retiring to Mexico". I just wish she had checked with us or researched what the focus of our business is. On the positive side, i found lots of useful information in the book. If there is a reprint, i hope we are not in it or that we are designated as a corporate relocation source.

Great Overview
It gives the reader good side-by-side comparison of everything from rental costs to pets, while being easy to read and entertaining. This book provides a great overview of retired life in Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Ecuador, covering a wide range of topics of interest to a retiree or traveler.

As has been pointed out in other reviews, there are other books which provide more in-depth detailed information for any of these countries. I found this book valuable in helping me decide where to focus my attention. In fact, I have since bought books dealing specifically with three of the four countries dealt with here, based on what I learned in this one.

I found it to be a good starter for those with a desire to learn more about moving south of the border, but without much detailed knowledge about living in that environment.

Great book!
Hi, I am working at ILISA Spanish Language Institute and I just want to let you know that this book is perfect for the retired that want to lay back in Central america and learn Spanish.
