Thanks for sharing I'll check them out!

Thank you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year :)

We had a wonderful time! We're so lucky to be in Mexico!

Feliz Navidad and Happy New Year to you too!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year :)

Feliz Navidad y Nuevo Año :)

Exact same with us. I really don't understand how people get so worked up over titles - I guess we must have other more important things going on lol

Keep it FOREVER lol

Yes!!!

Yes it definitely is! We grew up in Newmarket and lived in Toronto for many years! PV has Hot and Hotter!!

Yes we definitely know Sarnia! I find that it sometimes takes away from the experience of travelling (unless you travel to an english speaking country of course). We have travelled to many countries where they spoke NO english and those were often the best tripsfor us.

Yes you're absolutely right! It doesn't help when you return and things have worsened

Why as they say in Portugal?? What about as they say in Mexico?? Wait a second…are you Portuguese, living in Mexico and judging other immigrants?!?!?!! Also we’re all Americans 🙌🏼

I find that despite some things being more expensive than Toronto and most likely California, a lot of our big expenses back home and more affordable here, in season food that we eat is less and we generally don't impulse buy.

Yes any bank however I always recommend using your credit card when withdrawing money and paying it back from your bank account. That way you have fraud protection and if anything happens they fraudsters aren't getting access to your cash accounts.

That's fantastic! We are always happy to help. Please msg us on social media or email and we can set something up :)

Welcome! We're glad you're joining us :)

I doubt it would happen in PV but you never know!

It's important for realtors to be ethical and know their clients wants/needs! It appears this realtor was probably chasing a paycheque vs. finding their clients the perfect place.

That's a good point however the Rio Cuale is quite a long way down from properties - it would need to be a serious flood and it's probably unlikely.

Hello fellow canadiens! Yes you are completely right! However the vibe is completely different when other also initiate the friendliness and not walk with their head down ignoring life around them (talking about Toronto lol)

Bad idea to let strangers in your casita

Can't say we've experienced that but best to not try drugs in general!

Never heard of that lol

Great tip! That is so helpful to know and it's always well received!

Yes!!!! I think that's in every language lol

I think the importance is typing a appropriate % within an appropriate range is most important. Feedback from Mexicans is when people tip 20+% is makes it so they receive bad service as the custom is 10% here

Good to know!

They have quite the reputation - still trying to get down to the reason why lol

​@@Morelifediaries Because they often do not tip. And cause the entire staff to wait on them like they are the royalty of some nation. I made the mistake of taking canadians to a friends restaurant. One, who I wished had not come, turned to the server and yelled her english at him loud. She turned to us right in front of him and said, you have to do that so they understand. Then turned to him and did it again. The server, a friend of mine just looked at me like WTF? And went on about his duties. I told this person he graduated from UCLA chef school and speaks perfect English. She refused to believe me. It's that type of arrogance that causes the reputation. It is often and often. Another friend when I told her the above joke she began making sure that for a large group there was a minimum of 15% and verbally abused her canadian mates in to 20 or more. Especially if they worked the server crew to death. I still hear her daying, "buckle up butter cup and get out your wallets, that is not enough, and I for one don't want the reputation". Then she told the above joke. Many just got mad. Really that extra dollar for the customer is nothing and the extra dollar from an entire days work mean everything to the server. I was in an east Indian restaurant and my friend the manager was the only one serving tables. He was working his ass off while being polite. I overheard a table of canadians saying they were going to talk the bill down and this was before they had their food. When the time came they tied up my friend and it was disrespectful to others waiting for food etc.. They refused to pay. I walked over and said. I hear you. You ate this food, then complained it was no good when it is considered the best indian restaurant in the area. I heard you. Now pay up in full with a 20% tip of I will call the police. Defrauding an inkeeper in Mexico is jail time just like everywhere else. You think this meal is expensive now, wait until you pay your way out of your jail time. All 4 of you. They paid. My manager friend thankned me and said I didn't know you could do that. I told it is his restaurant, he can do whatever he wants. This is just one of many, taxi cabs, no tipping on guided tours the tip is the only income for the guide. One friend took her guide bus on an entire day outing and they did not tip her one dime. She worked for free that day. People argue tha they should blah blah blah. Do you really think if they could they would no thave already? It is what it is and respect the ways in Mexico. So much of it is lack of common courtesy and respect at least I would give to anyone.

Thank you!

Sure!

@ and you are happy about it😅

You must be new here! Welcome!

:)

It does get SOO HOT...winter weather is hard to beat!

Thank you for sharing! Our experience is different living here vs. travelling here for short stays - we find people very friendly and helpful and have had not a single negative experience with locals. The prices going up can be said for just about anywhere in the world - especially in the last 5 years so PV is no exception. Cruise ships coming into town is an inconvenience for us foreigners or tourist but they equal a big pay day for all who work around the port and on the Malecon so I doubt that having them not come is a good thing for locals.

Sure! Go ahead!

Thank we will!!!!

Thanks! It was great to meet you too!
