Can anyone confirm that it's open again?

Why even bother investing in Mexico's real estate? Potentially strong men can make you sign over the deeds of your properties, or your brains will be on them.

Investing in growing a new, fresh, hot crop of HK girls every months. You can enjoy them better than mowing grass, digging weeds, chasing robbers and vermin out of your properties.

Someone should start selling retirement condos next to HK where guys can go down to the club and have sexy time with hot girls 24/7, any time they want, on their walkers, wheelchairs or stretchers.

A couple cities with colonial roots and predominant Spanish genes, Puebla, Guadalajara, Sinaloa, Monterrey ect have lots of tall, beautiful girls with fair skin.

Girls from the Southern parts like Veracruz, tend to have more indigenous blood, short, squat, dark skin.

I think social dynamics is stronger in Mexico than the US, which is already one of the strongest in the world. I have seen a women with 5 children, ranging from lotus white to brown to dark indigenous, from the most beautiful to the ugliest siblings. It does not mean she fucked a lot of different guys and bore their children. It's more likely due to all the genes that were mixed in her lineage a couple dozen generations before her.

In Hawaii, Tahiti, Micronesia, South Pacific, you sometimes find some very beautiful local girls with obvious Euro looks and features. It was horny Dutch seamen who sailed the ocean in the 17, 18, 19th century, screwed and seeded every women that can get their hands on.

They say the prettiest women in Mexico come from GDL.

I have been taking taxis in Tijuana for decades and only twice has a driver tried to rip me off. My routine has me jumping in a cab to Centro and enjoying a nice meal and a few local beers-BTW if you have not been to Border Psycho do so. All their tap handles are butt plugs or glass dildos- then stroll to the zona. I now only take the brown cabs. The other taxi stand to the right of the gates you pop out at have tried to rip me off. Last year this slick dude in a LA Dodgers hat dropped me off and as I was getting out he says "$20". I had already dropped the standard $5+$1 tip on the seat. I then reached down and picked up the $1 and walked away. I heard his door open and his mouth running but I just kept on walking. Now every time I see him at the taxi line I just wave and get into a brown one. Always before the door closes say out loud what you will be paying and don't deviate. On another note I went up to Bodega 8 to have a great meal. It's up by the golf course. After lunch did not see a cab on that very busy street for 45 minutes. Finally had to reactivate my Uber to get a ride. I had cancelled due to COVID making a $12 fare go to $55 in San Diego. Uber is way cheaper than cabs in Tijuana but leaves a electronic trace which I avoid at all costs.

Trouble in paradise: Americans say they've lost access to their Baja resort homes.

San Diego Union Tribune.

Cantamar residents, many of whom are USA Retirees, are caught up in a complicated land dispute.

Rosarito The barbed wire fencing that surrounds most of Cantamar, a beachfront development located about 15 miles south of Rosarito, is barely noticeable against the towering palm trees lining the property and the percussion of nearby ocean waves.

Residents of the luxury beach-side community say they've had to climb over that steel fencing just to leave their homes in recent weeks because of an escalating dispute with the property manager. They say that in pursuit of new maintenance fees, she has blocked the exit, cut-off water and gas, and refused entry to guests, maintenance workers, and even some residents.

About 40 Baja California residents, many of them USA Citizens and California retirees, say they've completely lost access to their homes.

"I feel like a prisoner there," said Robert Boyd, a retired attorney from Arizona. "People have all their money invested in the place, and they're at their wits end. They'll be damned if they're going to lose their investments or their life savings.

It's why you don't buy in Mexico unless you're a national and know exactly what you are doing.

The obsession with ownership is fascinating to me. Simply rent. Problem solved. This is especially true if you get bored easily like I do. In no particular order but a year in each of the following: Puebla, Vallarta, Merida, GDL, CDMX, Oaxaca, Leon, Mazatlan, Tijuana and Pachuco is far more appealing to me than 10 years in the same place.

About 3 years ago. I offered the posted rate (I think 50 or 60 pesos) from border to the club.

Though he reluctantly agreed at first all along the way the driver was moaning saying you don't have to pay me anything in a sarcastic tone, etc.

When we finally got there I think he grabbed by suitcase or in other ways tried to create a scene. I just paid him 100 pesos to avoid a scene.

So, now I only take the limo. Last time I even waited 10 minutes for the limo to return to the border rather than taking a taxi.

I wonder if anyone else has experienced attitude with a driver if you negotiated less than $5 taxi ride to / from border.

I recently read others offered 50 pesos so it seems that not all drivers are angry about that.

I had a taxi taking me to playas de Tijuana. When we got along the. Beach side, I was a mile from destination and he demanded more money or be dumped off in middle of nowhere. So I told him dump me here. Taxis are to be avoided unless desperate. For me, best way to HK is the 10 pesos bus that drops you off near revolution.

If a retired attorney is screwed on his Mexican retirement house, just imagine how far up shxt creek you could be. . . Yeah, that's the ticket, put your retirement money into a foreign land deal! Hope you like eating Alpo or Kennel Rations!

Its even better if one plans on living in Mexico. Living in Asia is a lot easier for an expat, except for the immigration part. Thailand and the Philippines have retirement visas, but both require a nest egg to be held in a local bank. Otherwise, you either need a work permit or do you have to do trips to immigration and / or border runs. The six-month, multi-entry visa that Mexico has is insanely convenient. I guess its a matter of making a living that will allow you to live in the Latin world that seems to keep Westerners away. Well that and its not as safe in regards to violent crime. But still, the Latin world looks like a great place to retire for a guy to retire. We can even own land.

They say the prettiest women in Mexico come from GDL..

I have asked many women I find attractive where they are from. Most of the time the answer is Puebla.

So, for my taste, it seems like Puebla has something special that makes the gals really beautiful.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Concerning the six month visa thing. I'm on my third go around and I think it's a deal if you go to play in Tijuana often. Careful though. The last time I renewed the dude said he could not accept my global entry card. He said I had to have passport. After a bit of a stare off and the fact that I had $30 out he accepted my idea of using the info off the expired one. I doubt heavily that money ever makes it to the national treasury.

I noticed people are more friendly in Mexico than in the USA As everyone greets each other by saying buenos dias, tardes, or noches. The regular would try to give the greeting of the day to Americans at the various locations we've vacationed and they didn't return the greeting. I told her it is normal for some Americans to be stuck up and not acknowledge you. The only challenge we have is she has to transfer schools to Tijuana as the Sinaloa university is going to start in person classes next year. I told her if she can't transfer, then the relationship is most likely going to be over as I don't do distance well. I guess it will be the real test if she can walk away from 3 years of knowing the professors and classmates. She also mentioned that Tijuana university may be more challenging which made me laugh as education isn't supposed to be a cakewalk.

I guess Americans are a more selfish culture, but I tried to explain to her that she should focus on what makes her happy and not my happiness. The family thing is strong for her to make sure they are comfortable, but she tells me it isnt my responsibility. I guess time will tell how it works out, but I rarely meet people that are so passionate and wants to please you. If you happen to find it, then hope it works out for you. It feels like a dream at times as she is so good to me.

I have always loved that part of Mexico and going to out and seeing how the people acted towards one another is one thing I genuinely miss. I'm happy that you can see the difference so quickly and in smaller cities it's even better. It's how I imagine people are in small parts of the south and the so called southern hospitality.

So I'd imagine since she is so tight with family and her age that she has talked to you about having a kid, with your past and age I'm sure you have thought about this and my guess is that maybe you not wanting a child would be the downfall of your relationship. Just talking from experience.
