  From Guadalajara’s Grand Plazas to Tlaquepaque’s Artisan Alleys

A four-day road trip to the cities of Guadalajara with day tours to the neighboring city of Tlaquepaque, 20 minutes away.    Guadalajara is Mexico’s second largest city, the birthplace of mariachi music, tequila and the charreada (Mexican rodeo). Its historic center is impressive with huge interlocking pedestrian plazas that draw crowds all day surrounded by so many majestic colonial buildings with plenty of public art and sculptures.

Culture, Coast, and Condo Keys: My Bucerías Story

Hence, its name Bucerias from the Spanish verb” buscar” (to search). The town has this Bohemian vibe, combining the best of Mexican culture with that of tourism, offering an opportunity to have a deeper connection to local life, natural beauty and amazing sunsets!  I liked it so much that I decided to purchase a condo here for getaways during the winter months and as an investment.  Here‘s what convinced me to take this leap….
