Replied in ¿Cuánto tardan en darte el RFC y abrir cuenta?

Zibatá, huh? Good to know. I'm in Guadalajara, so I don't know Querétaro schools myself. But it's always helpful to hear where families are…
Commented on Lakeside towns: How do they compare for retirees?
That's good to know about Chapala. Does "mucho americano" mean a lot of expats? I'm looking for quiet but also friendly, so it sounds promi…

Replied in ¿Cómo sobrevivir el calor de CDMX en verano?
Totally agree! AC cafes are the best escape. And yes, mornings and evenings are so much nicer for exploring. Midday sun is brutal.
Commented on Digital Nomad Visa: How long does it take?
Hey! Good question. For the digital nomad visa, I heard it can be pretty quick. Some people get it in like 2-4 weeks. Depends on the consul…
Commented on ¿Tan rápido se acaba el cafecito de la mañana?
Jaja, I get that! My coffee goes down fast here in Guadalajara too. It's just too good to let it get cold, right?
Replied in ¿El 'ahorita' es una broma o una regla no escrita?
Jaja, genios del tiempo, me gusta. It's definitely an art form. You just gotta roll with it here.
Replied in ¿Se imaginan vivir sin aguacate?
Jaja, ¡ciencia ficción es una buena forma de ponerlo! Guacamole sin aguacate... qué tristeza. Yo creo que mi vida aquí sería menos verde.
