A member of my Facebook community just recently posted a video in the group about an authentic Texas BBQ place called Smoked ‘N Low in San Miguel de Allende.
I couldn’t believe it! We immediately headed over to check it out and it didn’t disappoint! I had to do a video on this place. Many times we associate Mexico with Mexican Food, but in reality Mexico has many things to offer including International Cuisine!
I may live far from Texas but Texas came to me!
I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed making it…
Today I have the privilege of presenting to you, Samantha Guevara. She is a 19 year old Soprano Opera Singer from Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Mexico. Samantha has been singing since the age of 2 and started her formal training at the age of 6. She is now 18 and has a beautiful voice!
I hope you enjoy meeting Samantha as much as I did….
When we moved to San Miguel de Allende, we were looking for furniture for our house. After searching the local stores we weren’t pleased with the selection. A friend recommended a carpenter that runs a cooperative of artists called Arte Unida. After giving him ideas, he produced not just pieces of furniture, they were pieces of art.
The idea of this cooperative is to give back to the local community of Alcocer by both teaching local artisans this art as well as giving employment to the local community. These types of places exist all over Mexico and produce beautiful pieces of art, not just furniture!!!!!
Join us as we visit this local artist! They not only make pieces of art for the loacal community but they also ship tthroughout Mexico and Internationally!
This video is being released at 11pm September 15, 2021, when the celebration for Mexican Independence Day kicks off when the Mexican President rings the bell and recites the Grito of Dolores! Viva Mexico!
Today is a special Day for Mexico! It’s Mexican Independence Day! No this is not Cinco de Mayo, this is actually real day that people all over Mexico Celebrate Mexico’s Independence from Spain.
So why do we associate cinco de mayo with Mexican Independence day? Today I’m going to try and answer that question and more.
Today we celebrate 2000 subscribers and what a better way than to start a Mexican Culture Playlist!
I want to thank all my supporters!!! We are expanding faster than ever!!! More to Come! Today were going to add a new playlist topic to our video library. We are going to start a culture series. We here at retired life in Mexico NO BULL feel that it is not only important to understand and learn the process of moving to Mexico, but it is also important to learn culture. I realize that many are looking at moving to Mexico or already live here because of it’s affordable cost of living. We here at Retired life in Mexico want you to fall in love with Mexico as well. Once you fall in love with this country there is no limits to the opportunities and adventures you can have while living in Mexico.
What comes to mind first when you think about Mexican culture? Mariachis, tacos, tequila, beautiful beaches and even cinco de mayo?. These are all legitimate associations, but Mexico’s history and cultural diversity includes much more than just that. What a better way to kick of our cultural series with 10 things you probably didn’t know about Mexico or maybe you do but pretty interesting facts!
