I plan on visiting Mexico in the spring. I'm a single woman of retirement age. I want to befriend Mexicans and enjoy the culture but would like to get to know some expats who would be able to make suggestions and offer advice.
I spent a couple of weeks once in Oaxaca and loved it but I wonder what it is like as a permanent home. I also spent a couple of months traveling through Mexico many years ago but had no thought of retiring there at that time.
I am also attracted to San Miguel de Allende and Ajijic. Is it easy to keep a car in these cities? I lived in Brazil for a couple of years and speak Portuguese which makes learning Spanish much easier. I have begun studying Spanish.
Any thoughts would be welcome.
