What are the top (3) things you have learned that you think might help someone moving to Vallarta now?

  • Don’t ever ask yourself WHY …Because it just is.
  • If you want things like they are were you come from, then don;t come here. We are here to enjoy the people and the culture.
  • Getting things like phone service, cable, electric, etc. are much quicker than we expected.

    Hello Trish and Rey!
    I was doing research on moving to Vallarta and I was shocked to see a couple of familiar faces on this forum! I don’t know if you’ll remember me, but we took a 14-night Mediterranean cruise together on Holland America way back in 2001. I was with my mom, Norma, from Canada. I’m still flying, but looking to commute from PV. How are you guys?
    Hugs! -Lori
