Keto Couple in the Riviera Maya
Not a photo we like… So, a lot has happened in just a short week. Keith and I decided we have gained more weight that we care to admit, so it was time to make a change. After seeing several friends who are succeeding on the keto diet we decided to give it a try….
Our first visit to the Veterinarian
Well, we’ve been in Mexico for 6 months and able to avoid a trip to the veterinarian’s office; that was until this week. Chance, our little one, thought it would be a wise choice to stand in an ant pile while going pee. Let me tell you, he was one lucky pup. We must have…
My Must Have Beauty Products
This may not interest everyone but finding beauty products in Mexico hasn’t been the easiest task for me. I had the things I liked to use back in the States, and sadly, those brands aren’t as easy to find here. Sometimes even impossible. Thankfully with trips back to the US being somewhat often means I…
Filming for ANOTHER Reality TV Show
Keith doing an interview Keith and I were fortunate enough to be picked for a popular TV show and spent the last 5 days filming. During that time, we had the opportunity to go on a sunset sailing adventure, visit a local monkey sanctuary, film in one of our favorite restaurants, explore Playa/Tulum and just…
My Experience with Surgery in Mexico
(Sorry guys, this may be TMI for some… So, if you can’t handle “female health talk” then maybe skip this one) When we moved here from the States my US Dr. told me that my last pap smear was abnormal but not to worry about it, she’d see me in a year… Personally, that didn’t…
Retirement Isn’t Easy For Everyone…

Our Experience with Medical in Mexico
For those of you who are unaware, we have been spending a bit of time in the local hospital as I (Tarah) have a tumor that I need to get removed. It’s nothing major but it’s something that has to be taken care of… It seems I have a teratoma tumor which is removed by laparoscopic surgery. I…
Lights, Camera, Action – Our Opportunity to be TV Stars!
We recently had the pleasure of being a part of a pilot for a new potential expat show that is being pitched to the networks. They came to our home and filmed us answering questions and talking about our move to Mexico. We also had the opportunity to check out a local cenote we hadn’t…
Mosquitos in Mexico
Mosquitos are here and they are hungry… it’s nearly impossible to not get bitten. We spray when we go out at night and yet, somehow, they still find a way in to get in a little itchy bite… I am hoping I have just stumbled across the one thing that will work. I am going…
