Living in Mexico and Learning to Speak Spanish: Tales & How-to Tips

The purpose of this blog is to provide information about Mexico -- mostly through my husband's and my day-to-day experiences of living in Mexico, specifically in San Juan Cosala, Jalisco, by Lake Chapala near Ajijic. I write for people who might live or retire in Mexico, for expats or travelers currently in Mexico, and for Mexicans. I write about how to learn to speak Spanish, why it's important, and how to get started. For more, visit my website www.mexico-with-heart.com as well! -- Rosana Hart

The Quinta Quetzalcoatl Bed and Breakfast in Chapala


Not long ago, our friends Beverly and Al came down to Lake Chapala on vacation. We'd met them last year when they made Ajijic one stop on a trip to several places. This time, they decided to focus on one area, and Beverly sure did her homework when it came to accomodations.

They stayed in Chalapa, at the Quinta Quetzalcoatl Bed and Breakfast. It's often called the QQ, and is right in the heart of the downtown area. But what a world you enter within its acre of grounds! D.H. Lawrence wrote while staying there, quite a few decades ago.

Here are more pictures:




You can see more at the website of the Quinta Quetzalcoatl Bed and Breakfast in Chapala. I was astonished at how low the prices are!

After roaming the grounds to our hearts' delight, we had a nice lunch at a lakeside restaurant called the Blue Agave. As you're coming into Chapala on the carretera from Ajijic, it's on the right. Very nice place, very good food.

I wonder what Beverly will come up with next!
