Sochil Martin is a Mexican American woman born and raised in the religious high control group La Luz del Mundo. She was groomed from a young age to be a "concubine" for the leader of the organization, becoming a slave to the leadership. After escaping at 30 years old, Sochil, with the help of her husband Martin and family, began seeking justice and founded the WithYou Foundation in 2020. The foundation works to change legislation to help survivors of human trafficking in high control groups. Sochil, now 37 and happily married, is dedicated to helping others break free from similar situations through prevention, justice, and healing. In this emotional and inspiring conversation Sochil shares with Rachel how she was able to break free of the abuse her family endured for 5 generations over 100 years by La Luz Del Mundo. Together they discuss how institutions have failed to keep children and adults safe from abuse with complacency, bureaucracy, and ignorance and what Sochil is now doing to change that. Before You Go: Rachel explains how the authoritarian control of cults can often cause dissociation and confusion in its followers hindering their critical thinking abilities and preventing defection. Sochil will host a rally for survivors at the Mexican Consulate in San Diego, California this Friday, March 8th from 5-8 PM (PST) at 1549 India St, San Diego, CA 92101.

This episode focuses on the importance of the cross-border relationship with guest Hector Vanegas, SANDAG's Borders Program Manager. Hector first outlines SANDAG's role in coordinating cross-border transportation projects and traces his career path working in binational affairs from the Mexican Consulate to his current position at SANDAG. Hector emphasizes the economic interdependence between San Diego and Baja, and how we can increase civic participation in regional planning through initiatives like the Border Connectivity Project and the World Design Capital designation. At the end of the episode, Hector discusses how we can help reshape perceptions of the US-Mexico cross-border regions and why we need to have a sense of pride and reverence for our shared history. Timestamps: [2:49] Hector talks about his academic formation and career path before SANDAG, including work as an attorney in Mexico, working at the Mexican Consulate in San Diego, and studying human rights at the International Institute of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. [4:17] What led Hector to the border region? [6:06] How does SANDAG geographically define the San Diego/Tijuana region, and why? [6:44] SANDAG's work addresses many issues beyond the San Diego/Tijuana border. [9:35] Hector discusses the IRP, Interregional Partnership. [10:53] The complexity of working with the borders and the need for cooperation across multiple agencies. [11:02] How SANDAG works to foster collaboration. [13:14] How important our relationship with Northern Baja is to maintaining California's large economy. [15:18] Mexico is now going to be the largest trading partner of the United States, surpassing China, and representing almost 16% of our international trade. [15:38] The importance of remembering the shared history between Mexico and San Diego. [17:18] A few takeaways from the Impacts of Border Delays at California, Baja California Land Ports of Entry study. [22:28] As SANDAG looks for new leadership, Hector shares his thoughts on how the agency may increase its impact on the U.S./Mexico border region. [27:24] SANDAG created the borders committee at a policy level as one of the four Policy Advisory Committees, of which there are now six. [28:18] The opportunities to increase civic engagement and visionary dialogue in the World Design Capital and the Advancing Border Connectivity Project. [35:17] San Diego was recognized as an inspirational model of regional collaboration by the UN. About C-3 Even before the California Coastal Commission or Environmental Protection Agency existed, Citizens Coordinate for Century 3 (C-3) was the environmental conscience of San Diego. Since that time, in part due to C-3's leadership in education, advocacy, and empowerment, a plethora of organizations have developed throughout San Diego County. These organizations specifically focus on promoting progressive values in architecture, urban design, land-use governance, natural resource management, sustainable economic development, climate change resilience, and social justice. As the field of allies has grown, C-3's role has evolved to provide a platform that promotes creating civic community.

They say two brains are better than one. And in Indianapolis, a group of Hispanic women is making a positive impact on the Mexican Consulate through the arts.Local Mexican-American artists Joy Hernandez and Alejandra Carrillo are on a mission to paint a mural on the Mexican Consulate's outside wall facing Lord Street.With every stroke of colorful paint, a formerly empty space on the consulate's wall is taking a transformative turn for Indy's Mexican community.Featured in the mural are a monarch butterfly, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway pagoda next to a race car, and a feathered serpent, among other things that represent the two communities that are hundreds of miles apart.The artists began their work in the summer and aim to finish by the end of October, all thanks to a partnership between the consulate and Arte Mexicano en Indiana.The Mexican Consulate in Indianapolis also says they're looking forward to celebrating with the Indianapolis community for years to come.According to Arte Mexicano en Indiana, the mural was funded by LISC Indianapolis, Central Indiana Community Foundation, Efroymson Family Fund, Global Preparatory Academy at Riverside #44, and The International Center.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Anti-immigrant laws impact the economy and our humanity. In this episode of I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, my dear friend Samuel Vilchez Santiago, with whom I've advocated for social justice causes at the local, state, and national levels, joins me to talk about Florida Senate Bill 1718 in effect July 1st, and its impact to our community, economy, and cost of living. Samuel is Florida State Director of the American Business Immigration Coalition (ABIC), a bipartisan organization that engages activists, advocates, business leaders, and elected officials on the urgency of passing immigration reform that boosts our economy, creates jobs, eases the labor shortage, and supports families. He reminds us of the quote by Martin Niemöller: “First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.” Samuel also reminds us that anti-immigrant laws are nothing new. Proposition 187 in 1994 sought to limit services to undocumented immigrants and required verifying and reporting the immigration status of all individuals, including children. After 5 years of advocacy, this law was voided. SB 1718 in Florida, passed WITHOUT making it a felony to transport or live under the same roof with an undocumented person, under penalty of spending 15 years in prison, because of the strong bipartisan advocacy of the church community and organizations like ABIC. “This would have affected me directly because my grandmother came to visit from Venezuela, and we are in the process of getting everything in order for her to stay with us, but her undocumented status would have made it a felony for us to care for her. Thankfully, advocacy works, and we are determined to overturn this law altogether,” Samuel shares. It's hard to determine the impact of SB 1718 because investments are rarely made into doing research about our community. The Mexican Consulate in Orlando assisted 200 people daily, and they're now down to 40. Many construction sites are at a standstill. Latino families are panic-stricken this Back-to-School season, especially those with mixed status. Florida's economy will lose billions in spending power and the taxes contributed by immigrants. Businesses in Tourism, Hospitality, Construction, Agriculture, Manufacturing, and Healthcare across the state are starting to feel the impact, too, because 1 in 4 workers in Florida is (was?) an immigrant. Floridians will now also likely see the price of food and housing go up as undocumented workers and their families leave the state. They are leaving for Georgia and the Carolinas. Florida already has the nation's highest inflation rate, sitting at 9% in comparison to 4% in the rest of the country. Take heed, speak out, so there's someone there when they come for you.

Whether you're retiring to paradise or just moving there, you may want to get a job in Mexico for primary or extra income. On this episode, Jesse and Chelsea are joined by Coldwell Banker La Costa Sales Manager Dean Robbins to discuss the ins and outs of legally working in Mexico. They'll also dive into what it takes to work at Coldwell Banker La Costa and Dean's training process for new agents. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...Getting to know Dean Robbins [1:29] Dean's favorite aspect of working at Coldwell Banker La Costa [8:47] Making employment possible in Puerto Vallarta [10:37] Do you have what it takes to work for Coldwell Banker La Costa [14:30] The Coldwell Banker La Costa training experience [19:23] And the rest is historyA big part of loving your work is having a great boss. That's why Jesse and Chelsea are so grateful to work with Dean Robbins. Dean is the Sales Manager for Coldwell Banker La Costa, but he didn't always work there. He used to run real estate companies in the United States and only planned to move to Cabo San Lucas for a year, however, Mother Nature had other plans. A hurricane forced them to move to Puerto Vallarta. While searching for a new veterinarian in Marina Plaza, Dean and his wife had a chance encounter with the wife of Brock Squire, owner of Coldwell Banker La Costa. The rest is history! Together, Brock and Dean have taken the company from 15 to 92 agents in 7 years while simultaneously cultivating off the chart growth in sales. Lending a helping handAs a motivational author and podcaster, people often ask Dean what their purpose is. Dean believes the meaning of life is helping people, which is exactly what he loves about working at Coldwell Banker La Costa. Dean is available seven days a week so that anyone who has a question can always get the answer they need. However, it's not just about clients. He loves helping the people he gets to work with as well! Whether it's launching them into a successful real estate career or helping them find the right fit elsewhere, Dean is always ready to support people on their journey. Let's get to workOver the last decade, the process to legally work in Puerto Vallarta has changed considerably. You used to be able to show up in any resort community and get a sponsor letter that earned you a resident card and work permit in two to three weeks. Nowadays, it's not so simple. First, you need to return to your country of origin and make an appointment with the Mexican Consulate. There, you will fill out paperwork that requires you to prove you have the adequate financial resources to move in-country. Typically, that number works out to $25,000 in the bank or an income of $2000 per month independent of a Mexican-based job. Within 30 days the Mexican Consulate will notify you that you have been approved and you'll have a 30-day deadline to make it back to the immigration office in Mexico to file for a resident card. Once you have your resident card you can get a sponsor letter from your potential employer and apply for a work permit. Listen to this episode for more information on working in Puerto Vallarta!

Seattle Police says it was unable to respond Friday after security at the Capitol Hill-located Consulate of Mexico in Seattle called for assistance as protesters reportedly surrounded employees attempting to leave the Harvard Ave diplomatic facility. According to the SPD brief on the Friday incident, consulate security called for help around 4:15 PM saying 20-25 people were protesting outside the building. “Security staff said when they tried to evacuate the building consulate employees were surrounded and prevented from leaving,” the brief reads. SPD was not able to respond, according to the report, because there were “over 50 911 calls waiting and only a handful of patrol units available throughout the entire city” at the time of the incident. There was no information in the report about why the protest targeted the facility but there have been demonstrations around the world in solidarity with actions in Chiapas protesting Mexican president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

Rebecca Devaney is a textile artist, researcher, and facilitator. She has recently established Textile Tours of Paris.Rebecca Devaney first landed in Paris in 2017 to follow her dreams and study haute couture embroidery at the prestigious École Lesage. With a BA in Art and Design Education and an MFA in Textile Art and Artefact from the National College of Art and Design in Ireland, there were already two recurring themes in her life, embroidery and inspiring young people.Before arriving in Paris, Rebecca was generously granted funding by the Thomas Dammann Junior Memorial Trust Award to undertake a research trip that aimed to investigate the cultural importance, craft, and aesthetic of Mexican hand embroidery. She traveled all over Mexico to meet craftspeople, artists, ethnographers, and anthropologists to study how embroidery is heavily embedded in their culture. She heard how women embroider their personal stories, memories, and experiences in each beautiful piece of work. Her research resulted in the exhibition Bordados, a collection of photographs, interviews, and textiles, which has been presented internationally and is now part of the permanent collection at the Mexican Consulate to France.Rebecca is also a textile artist and her work has been exhibited in Ireland, the United States, and even here in Paris at the OECD inaugural conference on Violence Against Women. She has completed artist residencies in Abu Dhabi and India, teaching children how to combine creativity and sustainability to create beautiful works of art. She is currently working with Fanatikart in Paris, teaching young children to use embroidery to tell their stories, which will be exhibited at Centre 104. She had always dreamed of incorporating the embroidery and embellishment techniques of haute couture in her textile art practice. Enrolling in École Lesage was her opportunity to do this, to learn the techniques mastered – and, in some cases, invented – by one of the world's greatest artistic embroidery houses. She spent six months training in the intricate arts of Lunéville embroidery, traditional needlework, and embellishment. After qualifying, Rebecca began working as an embroiderer for the world's most renowned Maisons de Haute Couture such as Chanel, Dior, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce and Gabanna, Louis Vuitton, and Valentino. She embroidered gowns for celebrities and royalty worn at the Met Gala Ball, Cannes Film Festival, and of course, Paris Fashion Shows, you could say, she was living the embroider dream life. Rebecca established Textile Tours of Paris in 2019 to share her love of the rich heritage of textiles woven through the fabric of Paris on guided walking tours. She also runs embroidery workshops and the Threads of Connection embroidery evenings at Shakespeare & Company. All of those experiences and passions would soon collide when Rebecca was working with the Irish in France at the Irish Cultural Centre to create children's costumes from recycled materials for the St Patrick's Day Parade in Paris in 2020. She was approached by Junk Kouture, a fashion competition founded in Ireland in 2010, which was planning to expand internationally. She knew the competition well from when she worked as an Art teacher in Dublin and had participated each year with her students who absolutely loved it.

I Like Your Work: Conversations with Artists, Curators & Collectors
In this episode, I talk to the artist Marcelina Gonzales about challenging preconceptions of being a Hispanic female through her work. Marcelina creates meticulous pieces that combine paint and resin to recreate memories of her youth. In our conversation, she discusses how she navigated her experience from adolescence to womanhood while growing up in Brownsville, a border-town located at the southernmost tip of Texas. The Rio Grande Valley, the area where she came of age, is a unique place for its fusion of Mexican and American culture and traditions yet it is often regarded with contempt by outlets that promote its poverty, lack of education, and danger. Marcelina works to reconcile the shame triggered by the circumstances and external barriers set by her perceived identity, ability, and class. Ultimately she seeks empowerment as she works to destroy the expected social, political, economic, religious, and sexual role of a female living in today’s America. Marcelina’s work has been exhibited repeatedly throughout Texas in galleries and exhibitions such as Freight Gallery in San Antonio, Fort Worth’s Fort Works Art competitive “40 under 40” Exhibition, the El Paso International Museum of Art, and at the 500X Gallery in Dallas, Texas. She has been included in several juried exhibitions throughout the United States including the Rosetta Hunter Gallery located in Seattle Central College and in exhibitions spaces in Los Angeles and New York City. She has also had the opportunity to travel internationally with her work to places such as Berlin, Germany, Budapest, Hungary, and Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Most recently she took part in a 3 person exhibition in New York City’s Chelsea Gallery, Field Projects. In January 2020 she was awarded a grant by the The Brownsville Beautification Committee, in partnership with the City of Brownsville, City of Matamoros and the Mexican Consulate in Brownsville to create a mural in her hometown for Sin Fronteras/Without Borders, an initiative created to unify the border cities.

In this episode, Marc covers the events of the Millers’ trip back to Austin where they stayed with an old friend, Marc’s presentation to an association of his Multi-generational Workplace Workshop, getting rid of old stuff, connecting with old friends, and stocking up for the trip back to Ajijic. Marc covers the steps to getting resident visas, crossing the border, and meeting with their attorney in Mexico to get their paperwork processed.Listen in to this fascinating episode for insight into becoming an expat with U.S. ties. Key Takeaways: [1:12] Marc welcomes you to Episode 121 of the Repurpose Your Career podcast. Career Pivot brings you this podcast.

Subscribe on CareerPivot.com, iTunes, or any of the other apps that supply podcasts. Share it on social media or just tell your neighbors, and colleagues. The more people Marc can reach, the more he can help. [2:02] Next week, Marc will share an Encore Episode where he interviews Susan Lahey, who is the co-author on the Repurpose Your Career books. He is trying to get Susan to speak to us about her move to Portugal. That’s where Susan is, as Marc records this episode. [2:26] This week, Marc will be discussing their trip back to Austin, his experiences in Austin, their return trip and the start of the Resident Visa process, first in the Consulate of Mexico in Laredo, and then back in Ajijic. Marc hopes you enjoy this episode. [2:44] Marc had a variety of reasons to return to Austin at this time. In the first week in March, Marc was speaking at the Texas Hospital Insurance Exchange, an association. The speaking gig was booked long in advance of the Millers’ move to Ajijic. Marc also needed to get the car inspected and the registration renewed. [3:28] The Millers also were still emptying their storage room, which was costing almost $80 a month. On this trip they gave a king-sized bed to a friend. [3:52] They had planned to start the visa process at the Consulate of Mexico in Austin in December but they had run out of time. So, they are stopping at the Consulate of Mexico in Laredo, on the way back to Ajijic from this trip. [4:16] On this trip, Mrs. Miller got to visit her parents while Marc did the income taxes. [4:32] The Millers left Ajijic on February 29 and drove to Matehuala the first day. It was a nice six-and-a-half-hour drive on toll roads and a few small roads. They stayed at the Las Palmas Midway Inn, where expats stay as they travel. It is an old pet-friendly motor inn. They stayed in a more renovated room that was quite nice, for $61 for the night. [5:19] They left about 7:30 a.m., expecting a seven-hour trip to Laredo. It turned into a 12-hour day. Road construction added an hour. A security checkpoint backed up traffic for miles as they looked at every truck. There are 10 trucks for every car on the road. [5:59] Next, there was a power line draped over the highway. The power company, CFE, fixed it after an hour-and-a-half. Marc is happy they were near the front of the line. [6:40] They arrived at Laredo at about 4:30 p.m. and processed through the banjercito for the temporary import permit for their car. Their $400 was refunded to their credit card (in spite of the Millers’ having changed card numbers because of a compromised card). Then it took an hour-and-a-half to cross the Laredo International Bridge Number 1. [7:31] The Millers got to the hotel in Laredo at about 7 p.m. They were pretty exhausted. It was a very, very long day with lots of sitting in traffic. It’s something you have to get used to. If not for the delays, they could have made the trip in one 12-hour drive from Ajijic to Laredo. But delays are expected. [8:04] The Millers checked into the La Quinta at the Laredo airport, which they like better than the one near the border. They had a nice dinner and the next morning headed off for Nacogdoches in East Texas. Mrs. Miller visited her parents there. Stephen F. Austin State University is the primary employer, besides the lumber industry. [8:41] Friday and Saturday, Marc hung around the hotel and did his income taxes. Being near the main road, what Marc first noticed was the massive amount of noise. Marc was no longer used to road noise and constant mechanical environmental noise. [9:57] Marc read in the Guadalajara Reporter that Mexicans don’t understand about Americans why we control the temperature year-round in our cars. That is not the practice in Mexico. [10:25] Sunday morning, the Millers headed for Austin. They stayed with an old family friend, Donna, in the neighborhood where they had lived for 28 years. She let them use an extra bedroom, where they stayed for about two weeks. [10:57] The old neighborhood was where the Millers had lived, in a house built in 1959 or 1960, until they moved to a condo near downtown in 2010. Marc noticed immediately the amount of gentrification that had occurred in the neighborhood.[11:22] The Millers walked two miles to Upper Crust Bakery and saw that 20 to 30% of the homes had been demolished and replaced with “McMansions” or were drastically added onto. In 1978, when Marc moved to Austin, it was the cheapest housing market in the country. Now, it is one of the most expensive. The change has been dramatic. [12:04] The second thing Marc noticed was everytime he wanted to do much of anything, he had to get in the car and drive. There was a Fresh Plus a mile-and-a-half away. Marc walked one day to Top Notch, a 1950s hamburger place, which was in a movie. It blew Marc away that everything is designed around the car, not around people. [12:47] He remembered that from his bicycling days. He used to lust after Downtown Portland, which was designed around people, not around cars. But this is Texas. Even the old neighborhoods, cars are necessary.[13:08] In Ajijic, in the last three months they have used the car three times. Twice, it was to get a 40-lb. package of kitty litter they didn’t want to carry on the bus. It was a mind-shift not to need the car. Austin’s public transportation is problematic. Most of the people who used it have left the area from gentrification. [14:05] 130 people move to Austin every day and the school system has lost enrollment six years in a row, primarily because people with children can no longer afford to live in Austin, so they are moving East, out of town. [14:26] Marc doesn’t like what his town was turning into. It was also during the week of SXSW, which consumes the central city, with 40-50,000 people visiting. SXSW is now mostly “hipster’ visitors. Locals stay away from SXSW. [15:03] Marc recently saw photos posted on Facebook of Austin downtown in 2010 and 2017 and it has changed — which is one reason why it has gotten so expensive, and one reason why it has driven the Millers out. [15:25] Marc drove up to Lakeway and gave the Multi-Generational Workplace talk that he shared on this podcast in Episode 111 and Episode 112. This event was a presentation for hospital administrators in rural counties. [15:46] That left the rest of the visit for the Millers to get their stuff done. They got the car registered and inspected and bought Mrs. Miller’s food supplements, which filled the car. They also got their bicycles serviced and ready to go — except for the pedals on Mrs. Miller’s bike, left in storage, so Marc ordered new pedals from Amazon.com.mx! [16:26] The Millers filled the rest of their time reconnecting with as many people as they could. They got rid of stuff from storage and started re-packing the car. Marc shared pictures of the packed car on Facebook. They ended up with about 13 milk carton crates filled with supplements and clothes. [17:08] They left some stuff behind to pick up in October and end their rental of their storage room. [17:21] The Millers drove back to Laredo on Sunday evening and had appointments at the Laredo Mexican Consulate Monday morning to apply for Mexican resident visas. They needed two passport pictures for each of them, filled out applications, 12 months worth of bank statements or investment statements to show adequate assets. [18:01] You must show that you’ve had over $100K in assets over the last 12 months or $2,400 a month in pension income or Social Security for a permanent visa. For a temporary visa, you must show $20K in assets or $1,200 a month in pension income. The Millers both qualified. [18:34] Mrs. Miller applied for a permanent resident visa and Marc applied for a temporary resident visa. The car is in Marc’s name, and you cannot bring a car into Mexico on a permanent resident visa. [18:56] Their appointments were for 10:00 and 10:30 a.m. Mrs. Miller got in about 9:40. Marc got in about 10:30. They were out by 11:15. They were at the Mexican Consulate a couple of blocks from the border. It was fairly easy. [19:20] The Millers chose to do it in Laredo, instead of at the Mexican Consulate in Austin, is that in Laredo they do lots and lots of these visa applications and they are not very “picky.” [19:38] The Millers have a neighbor, John, in Ajijic, who had applied through the Consulate of Mexico in Dallas. He had to return to the consulate six times. The Laredo consulate runs like clockwork. They get people in and out. It’s a very, very busy place. [19:59] The next morning, the car packed to the gills, the Millers crossed the bridge to Mexico at about 7:00 a.m. Marc drove into the “nothing to declare line.” They looked at the car and looked very quickly in back, saw a bunch of milk crates and the bicycles and they said, “Go.” [20:30] However, if they had seen the supplements in the milk crates, or the cat food on the top of the car, they would have charged duty on these items. Marc had an inventory of the food supplements, so they were prepared, if asked. [20:49] The Millers next drove to the immigration office where they processed their passports. Interestingly, Marc unknowingly dropped his passport in the parking lot. He didn’t have it when he went into the office, so he ran out. A young Mexican gentleman picked it up and handed it to him. Marc wiped the sweat off his brow and thanked him. [21:23] Passport in hand, Marc went into the immigration office and processed through. Once they have processed their visas, they have 30 days to complete, so Immigration approved them for 30 days. They also got their Temporary Import Permit for the car for 30 days. They crossed the border and drove to Matehuala. [21:59] They could not get a reservation at their regular hotel. The Las Palmas Midway Inn was full! Instead, they found the Hotel Casa Real Matehuala. The reviews on Hotels.com were mediocre. They checked in around 3:00 p.m. It was not a “dump.” It was old and worn, but clean. They each had one frayed towel, no washcloths. [22:44] There were two beds and two bathrooms! It was right across the street from Walmart, so they did a little shopping there. Then they ate dinner at their favorite restaurant in town, at the Las Palmas. [23:05] Then people started streaming into their hotel. Marc says they looked to be people traveling for work, in industrial service trucks. Marc says their hotel absolutely filled to the gills by midnight. It was noisy, but clean. It was $50 for the night. [23:45] The next morning, the Millers did not rush to get out. They got to Ajijic about 3:00 p.m. It was a fairly easy drive and they ran into no problems. There’s only one short section of about 10 miles that’s not on toll roads. Each day, the Millers spent about $35 to $40 in tolls. [24:11] When the Millers got home, Marc immediately contacted their lawyer for an appointment. The lawyer told them the sooner the better. They needed 15K Pesos, or about $700. The bank was closed when they needed the money, so Marc pulled money from the credit union and from the bank through ATMs and got enough. [24:56] On Friday, the Millers went to the law office, processed and filled out all the forms, and learned they needed pictures made, both front view and side view. They did that on Saturday. The pictures had to be from a studio and they were 150 Pesos for each set. That came to 300 Pesos or about $15 for both of them to get pictures. [25:27] The attorney was able to send all the paperwork to the immigration office and had their passports back to them by 3:00 p.m. The immigration office should get back with them in about two weeks when they will go and get fingerprinted. [25:58] One of the things Marc noticed in returning to Ajijic was that he did not like living in Austin anymore. He did not like the noise. He did not like having to drive everywhere. The mass transit is not acceptable to him. He does not like the packaged food. Marc and his wife are eating all fresh food in Ajijic, and he is down to 170 pounds at 6'4". [26:48] It was a very stark contrast, being back in Austin, and it was not the city that he remembered. [26:55] Marc hopes this gives you a good feel for the process. By the time this episode is published, the Millers should be very close to having their resident visas. Please read Marc’s fascinating blog post of March 25 on banking abroad to understand the issues of accessing your money in another country. [27:25] Marc hopes you enjoyed that episode. The Millers have spent nine of the last 12 months in Mexico. Their current plan calls for them to return to Austin by car in October. Marc will likely fly to New Jersey for a high school reunion, and possibly some audience meetups. Marc has a huge following in the NY Metropolitan area.[27:52] In 2020 the Millers will likely return to the U.S., sell the car, and either go carless or purchase a Mexican-plated car. Marc’s attitudes about money, environment, and the culture he desires have changed a lot, in the last 12 months. [28:09] Listen to Marc’s interview with Queen Michele in Episode 119 to hear her similar story of how she has been transformed from leaving the U.S. and moving to the North Shore of Lake Chapala.

MCALLEN, RGV - Yolanda Saldaña Woods, the new director of Alamo area for FIRST in Texas, has been in the Rio Grande Valley for the past few days. Woods, a native of San Benito, was in the Valley to attend FIRST RGV’s 2018-19 robotics competition season kickoff, which was held at Nikki Rowe High School in McAllen on Saturday. She told the Rio Grande Guardian was very impressed. “It was really refreshing to see the level of support FIRST RGV received from the school districts in the Valley, Harlingen, Brownsville, McAllen, PSJA,” Woods said. “I am taking back to San Antonio a lot of ideas on how to make our kickoff event as exciting as FIRST RGV’s. We do not have the speakers and the cheerleaders and the drums, all the things that make the kickoff truly special for the students.” On Monday, Woods joined FIRST RGV President Jason Arms and Mario Lozoya, executive director of Greater Brownsville Incentives Corporation Executive Director, in making a presentation to invited guests at the Mexican Consulate’s Office in McAllen. FIRST RGV is offering to help start FIRST robotics competitions in Reynosa and Matamoros. Later, Woods sat down for a podcast with the Rio Grande Guardian. She spoke about her recent visit to Mexico City, where she attended the 2018 FIRST Global Challenge. Mexico’s commitment to the event was evidenced by appearances from both outgoing president, Enrique Peña Nieto, and incoming president, Andres Manuel López Obrador. Woods also spoke about Arms’ plans to incorporate AmeriCorps VISTA, a national service program designed to alleviate poverty, into the FIRST RGV program.

Felix Zarate in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico about Immigration from the United States and Canada to Mexico. Also, the Puerto Vallarta Craft Beer Festival Comes to The Cuale Island to Benefit the Art Center Listen to The Podcast Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show.

That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El [caption id="attachment_194" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into the ever so romantic Vista Grill with those dramatic views of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course, at La Palapa you can enjoy that same view of the Los Muertos Pier all day long for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seated with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! This week we have a very special guest, Lic. Felix Zarate, my friend and Mexican Attorney of Zarate and Law Associates here in Puerto Vallarta, [caption id="attachment_287" align="alignright" width="227"] Lic. Felix Zarate[/caption] and we are going to be talking about immigration but not to the US or Canada, no, we are talking about immigrating to Mexico, but first let’s see what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 15th of November, 2017. It seems Craft Beer is making a splash in paradise lately with several in Puerto Vallarta Proper. We spoke with one local brewpub, Reid and Miranda at Monzon Brewing Company. Well, as I mentioned last week, there is a craft beer festival planned for this weekend and I told you I would bring on my buddy Edgar to talk about it so let’s go to Puerto Vallarta and hear about it from my amigo Edgar Cisneros… [caption id="attachment_1876" align="aligncenter" width="615"] Craft Beer Festival PV[/caption] Like Edgar said, there’s so much happening in the local Mexican craft beer world today. Like I said, we have Monzon, There’s Los Muertos Brewery, Cervecería Yambak from Sayulita, Cervecería Nebulosa from Brazil, Cervecería Los Cuentos in Puerto Vallarta, The Beer Box Prime in Puebla, Cerveza Minerva from Guadalajara, Euro Cervezas in Mexico City, all these great breweries. I have all the links to their Facebook pages in the shownotes of this episode so check them out. Great Craft Beers here in Mexico! Who Knew? https://www.facebook.com/Cerveceria-YamBak-220273431366326/ https://www.facebook.com/Cerveceria-Minerva-Puerto-Vallarta-140614419296847/ https://www.facebook.com/thebeerbox.prime/ https://www.facebook.com/EuroCervezas/ https://www.facebook.com/MonzonBrewing/ https://www.facebook.com/lmbcfvilla/ https://www.cervezaartesanalmexicana.mx/cervecerias-artesanales/los-cuentos Last week I was telling you about an email I got from listener Skip. I have a long show so I just want to answer one of his questions here and it has to do with buses and transportation and it goes like this…. Your podcasts have given me a huge list of options for dining - most of them in the Zona Romantica. In Feb 2018 we are staying in Nuevo Vallarta. It was a tradeoff for a great 3/3 oceanfront condo on Airbnb. On day 1, I plan to figure out the bus system from Nuevo to Walmart in PV (thanks to JR). Can a person walk to the Romantic Zone from Walmart? I have been on the malecon and to the Cathedral but have never yet seen the Los Muertos pier. It seems that most of what I want to see and do is on Basilio Badillo or Lazaro Cardenas or near by there. Ok, this is a good opportunity to review the bus system and getting around on buses in Vallarta and Nuevo Vallarta. … You can get links to this information with maps and more in the shownotes at www.puertovallartatravelshow.com. http://visit-vallarta.com/essentials/transportation/bus-routes-and-bus-fares/ Thanks for the questions Skip, I have more answers to your questions coming up next week, I promise. Also, Skip was kind enough to send me his pick for one of the ten most unusual things a person should try to do while in Puerto Vallarta, and so if any of you want to pitch in your ideas, come on, and send me some. Thanks’ Skip! Skip understands what this podcast is all about. Write in you guys. It’s easy to do just go to the Contact Us tab at the top of the website and click and send me a message. Okay! Let’s get to our guest… We hear all the time about how Mexicans can’t wait to get out of Mexico and move north but how often do you hear about North Americans, more precisely Americans and Canadians, wanting to move, or at least become Temporary or Permanent Residents of Mexico? According to census information, there are over one million Americans, US citizens living in Mexico, over 125,000 Canadians at least part of the year. Some of the Americans are in Mexico illegally. Imagine that! I got an email from listener…who wanted to hear about the process of obtaining temporary residency. I told her that I would have my favorite attorney in Puerto Vallarta come on board and talk a little about what's going on today with immigration to Mexico. So I called Lic. Felix Zarate, he is my favorite Mexican Attorney, and he agreed to come on the show and talk a little about the immigration process. He invited me to his condo in Vallarta to talk so let’s go there right now…. We hear all the time about how Mexicans can’t wait to get out of Mexico and move north but how often do you hear about North Americans, more precisely Americans and Canadians, wanting to move, or at least become Temporary or Permanent Residents of Mexico? I got an email from listener…who wanted to hear about the process of obtaining temporary residency. I told her that I would have my favorite attorney in Puerto Vallarta come on board and talk a little about what's going on today with immigration to Mexico. Listen to The Podcast I love Felix. He really knows the law in Mexico. Let’s review what we learned and I want to expand on what Felix told us with information I got from the Mexican Consulate locally here in Los Angeles. I’m going to address both Canadians and Americans here and I will have links to all of the information I’m going to give you, right in the show notes to this episode of the Podcast that you will find at www.puertovallartatravelshow.com.
