Exploring Mexico One Destination at a Time

Interesting Articles, Advise & Travel Tips from an Expat Family in Mexico

What is Coming2Mexico?

We created Coming2Mexico to pass on some of the knowledge we have accumulated in nearly 70 years of living, working and growing up in Mexico. It has also become a fantastic excuse to take the 4 of us to different, new and exciting locations, to give us new material to write about. This becomes harder as the ‘kids’ grow and are more involved in college and work, but its the perfect excuse for Michele to gather the ducklings and find new excursions, While i just hang on and enjoy the ride.

We have a lot of work ahead of us to document the travels we have experienced already in Mexico, as well as the new excursions that are constantly arranged, but we think there is valuable information that people will appreciate, so we will keep at it.

If you have any quetions, comments, or complaints, feel free to contact us and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
