    Schools

    Good morning, please excuse any mistakes on this forum, I haven’t logged in for years. Is there any information or contacts that anyone knows of in regards to private schools in which a decent amount of English is spoken? My children are in the process of learning Spanish but would still need...

    Peso Falling vs Dollar

    Man do I wish we were close to Mexico to exchange right now . Let me tell you all, cherish that sun and fun , the south east coast of the US is not my cup of tea compared to the southwest and Mexico ! Does anyone know if there any silver exchange places in PP if one needed to sell silver someday...

    Driving in a Mercedes to RP? Safety?

    I agree about following all traffic rules extra carefully, we used to have nice vehicles we would take and never had any problems, My concern would be more crooked cops shake down if you break the law than getting robbed but as always use common sense, I definitely wouldn’t wear any fancy...

    Texting in PP

    I think it depends on the provider , I believe once I had done 1-52- (Mexico country code is 52) then the phone number. If that doesn’t work try 052 then the number or just 52 , I have had to mess around a few different ways . Also many Mexicans use WhatsApp app and it works like the phone ...

    Safety in Rocky Point

    I feel more safe in PP than I ever did in Tucson or when I visited Phoenix. More of a chance of getting hurt from a deal gone bad in some neighborhoods in Tucson & Phoenix than a run in with cartels, that being said anything is possible but statistically you are way safer once you drove smart...

    Cruises to start 2019. Make your reservation now.

    Wow I never thought it was really going to happen. I am assuming they will see how the first run goes before making further bookings , I saw on the website this month was the only option thus far. I have heard conflicting things about what active cruise ship ports do to Mexican cities so I hope...

    We have 5 children and have been taking them since they were toddlers or babies. We even have an experience in which my youngest who was 5 at the time fell from dizziness (a condition she dealt with at the time that has zero to do with Mexico) hit her head on a wall and was bleeding to the point...

    Champagne

    Sam's Club has a very nice Spanish champagne in a dark green bottle with large bold name of BRUT written in yellow, with yellow foil. It is quite dry and at 69 pesos, a true bargain. Mmmmmm mimosa time

    Mail Delivery Service

    If an investment ends up going well and we can pay for our housing in PP , we were brainstorming on a service to provide since we are not citizens and do not have the money to open any big business, we thought of picking up mail weekly and also “running errands” across the border once or twice a...

    Just looking for ideas

    Wow , I can see that happening . thanks for the heads up! Maybe we will do what we have a little experience in and stick to renting out . We hate to rely on tourism things like vacation rentals in case the economy goes bad again (which it will eventually we just don’t know when) but we have a...

    Just looking for ideas

    I appreciate honesty . He is Mexican but not a national. We aren’t there enough to get the full picture so that’s why we want to be realistic. The forum is exactly why we want all opinions from experts , not just ones that we want to hear. May save us in the long run. Muchas Gracias

    Just looking for ideas

    hola , just trying to be pro active , IF an investment goes well for my husband we may be able to go to RP and have a little bit of money to start a small business. Not a restaurant. I know so much of most expat businesses rely on the tourism aspect but we’re up for any outside of the box...

    Phoenix Magazine Rocky Waters by Loren Loftus

    Correct if I’m wrong because I’ve never been on a cruise but someone told me that you need a passport to do international cruises anyway. And it may be 1 hour more from Scottsdale but SanDiego is another 2 hours from Tucson. Plus you have to ..... drive and be in California, I’d rather deal...
