  Michael and Janie are great friends. We miss them in the states but we are so happy for them. Everything they are telling you is truthful and genuine, as that is who they are! ❤

  I’m glad how they explained everything in a simple manner, and how they made it work.

  This could be one of your best vids.  Great lighting, excellent sound quality and very good presentation subjects with a high degree of expertise in the processes for relocation. Very well spoken and organized.

  As a new resident in SMA, I really appreciated your video.  I just wanted to add, I bought a generic Zyrtec for 80 pesos, which is the same thing as the brand name med- as well as had the choice to buy the brand name med for 680 pesos at a local pharmacy.  I bought the generic and it did the trick!

  What a lovely couple and a really beautiful home! I appreciate their openness to share some of the challenges they faced, but you can tell that they're so happy to be there!

  Bravo!  I left my heart in San Miguel some years ago and have often thought, “Why not?!”  I love seeing how  happy you are there and am wildly impressed with your dedication to your cat!  Maybe I’ll make a return trip!  BEST to you two—Brilliant!

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsZDcbfSGCQ&amp;t=1592">26:32</a> My wife and 16 year old daughter &nbsp;lived 4 months in SMA in 1999...wonderful experience...25 years later looking back never regretted that decision. &nbsp;In Terreon with my daughter and Labrador packed inside my van the van broke down, (my wife had preceded my by airline) &nbsp;had to leave the van with a car dealership awaiting a part replacement from the US and rent a van, spoke no Spanish, 😢😢😢a Mexican man offered us his apartment for the night while driving me from auto store to auto store etc., while my daughter waited patiently for my return while drawing a small group of young Mexican kids interested in who she was and why was she sitting outside a gas station by herself.<br><br>Returned to Mexico in 2004 upon retirement and returned to US in 2010 but that&apos;s another story.
