  1. Know a guy, that does just this, everyone loves this guy....Jimmy...3141232881...
  2. Generally speaking, most people are unwilling, or unable to put the work in, to learn Spanish....Try learning one word per day!..
  3. A little complicated to catch bus at Alamo as, they are frequently full, when they get there, weekends almost impossible, unless you want to stand the whole way...
  4. Taxi from the new bus station to Ajijic, around $400-500 pesos...Have done this several times..Or Uber, but you have to walk outside bus station area, as from the last time I did this, they were not allowed in....
  5. When your doing the transaction it will show on the screen the fee, and usually will ask do you accept the fee, yes or no....
  6. Agree with all of that...Chapala starting to turn into a Ajijic...Construction projects are booming here....
  7. No, new, non Spanish speakers will not be able to find these on there own...They are still around, but most in undesirable areas, as in night time crime, etc. Another friend, just today rented a 1 bed 1 bath new, firnished apt, near the malecon...$450 includes everything...
  8. nope, not confused, Allen is the guy, know him well...
  9. Agree with you, lots of cheap places here in Chapala, have a friend pays $150 per month..One really needs Spanish or a friend that does...Mostly lost has it right!!...The caviat is, you get what you pay for..
  10. Try this guy, he specializes in Beetles....Alan in Chapala...3311769733...
  11. More tolerant?...This is not the USA or CANADA, this is MEXICO, the language here is SPANISH....Just like if you moved to the USA, you would be expected to learn basic English....Although being very elderly is a legit reason for not learning, as well as being hard of hearing, all the rest have no excuses...Just lazy I guess.....
  12. It has closed awhile back, don't know if they just moved,,,,
  13. First 8 years in Peru, not much English, so need to get with the program if you want to survive there!!
  14. Took me 2 years of hard work to get to the basic level, after 12 years, can rock and roll out there...LOL...
  15. Garden store in Chapala, on Zaragoza, 1/2 block west of Morelos...They have 3-4 different varieties...
  16. Sounds to me like your having issues adapting to life in Mexico...Its just not that hard.....
  17. Tried CI bank, but nobody spoke english...This is hilarious, why don't these dumb as a post people, bother to learn Spanish, I did, but lived in a country where poco english....English speaking gardener and cooks, needs guides everywhere, me thinks these people are in the wrong country....LOL...
  18. All to funny, from the largest money laundering bank on the planet....LOL...
  19. Most of the new people I run into, are dumb as a post, over paying for things is only part of it...Very few have taken the time to learn the language, the customs, they walk around in a trance, no eye contact, no hello how are you today, just nothing people...Lived in Latin America for many years, and have never seen anything like it....I live in Chapala, and no so crazy here, although the economic refugees are thick here....I am embarrased for my countryman...Just brain dead ZOMBIES...
  20. Most travel agencies, who will charge a small fee for the service..
  21. I am single, and my $2200 a month life is awesome, can do whatever I want...Know of a 2 bed 2 bath in chapala, few blocks from the Malecon for $500, furnished and includes all utilities..Less foreigners here than over west...Much prefer Chapala...
