A great read!
The descriptions of life there--the food, clothing, sounds, and smells--all made me feel as if I were there again. The adventures of Carol and Norma had me entertained until the end. Carol has an infectious writing style that I wish more authors possessed. .

Enthusiastically recommended for anyone considering vacationing in or moving to San Miguel, as well as for armchair travelers.
Falling. . in Love with San Miguel: Retiring to Mexico on Social Security is a simple testimony to the joys of retiring in San Miguel de Allende, an art and cultural center 165 miles northwest of Mexico City, named one of the top ten cities in the world to retire by "Money Magazine". Written by Carol Schmidt and Norma Hair, two women who came to escape the sweltering Phoenix summer and stayed when they became captivated by the joy of daily life. Falling. . . in Love with San Miguel is part memoir, part practical guide, as it details the first year of the authors' retirement life in San Miguel including their expenses on the costs of average Social Security, the problems they encountered and the adjustments they had to make, language issues in a Spanish-speaking country, the excitement of celebrating the fiestas of the Mexican calendar, and much more. Enthusiastically recommended for anyone considering vacationing in or moving to San Miguel, as well as for armchair travelers.

Reconsider San Miguel
These women have helped us reconsider and so should anyone else who thinks San Miguel is just for the wealthy. As a newsletter that reports on Mexican destinations appropriate for budget travelers and would-be retirees, we had all but written San Miguel off years ago. AIM-Adventures in Mexico Newsletter.
