I’ve lived in Mexico for almost 5 years and avoided a trip to the emergency room here, until this week. Thankfully, I’m fine and my experience here in an ER in Queretaro, Mexico went well. So, what’s it like going to the emergency room in Mexico?
While Mexico is a large, diverse country, not everyone will have a chance to thoroughly explore it. Where is the ultimate Mexico destination? I’ve been fortunate to visit so many wonderful destinations in Mexico. Here are my picks for the best places to visit in Mexico with family (and even without!)
We decided to visit the Merida, Yucatan area and ended up basing ourselves in a beach house in Chicxulub, Yucatan, Mexico. In this, I’ll tell you about our highlights of this trip and what is was like visiting Chicxulub and Progreso, Mexico with kids!
I know disaster prep has a bad rap, which is rather unfortunate. I’ve had to do some minor disaster prep while living as an expat in Mexico and I do strongly recommend it for practical reasons. Let’s get into why being prepared is smart (and not crazy) and how to do some basic prep while living abroad.
Be prepared!
Our visit to La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico in April of 2021 was one of my favorite vacations of all time. It ranks high. Really, I think it’s a tie between La Paz and our December, 2018 trip to Playa Del Carmen (here’s where you can read about why Playa Del Carmen was so awesome). La Paz is a gorgeous area with beautiful beaches. Another feature of the area are the whales.
I’d planned to take a whale watching tour, but I keep getting to the region too late in the spring in order to make that a reality. However, I got lucky and got to see them organically and unplanned. Here’s the story!
If you’re looking for cool places to visit in Queretaro, Mexico, I recommend checking out the acueducto Queretaro or the Queretaro aqueduct and viewing it from Mirador de los Arcos. It’s a special site that is distinctly Queretaro. Let’s check it out!
It just so happened that it was time to renew our US passports, at least for me and the kids. How do you go about renewing US passports for children while living abroad? It’s definitely easier than I thought!
Since moving to Mexico in 2017, I’m always on the look out for a great beach in Mexico to visit with my kids. We love going to visit the ocean while on vacation and it’s oh-so-satisfying to dip my toes in the sand and salty water. So, where are the best beaches in Mexico for families?
