And you thought you'd seen everything

And You Thought You'd Seen Everything...! Even now the very word Mexico seems exotic to me. It is now twenty years later and I'm still on "vacation". helene kahn

One cold and snowy day in Michigan our fourth grade geography class began a chapter on Mexico and it was the beginning, for me, of a lifelong love affair with this magical country. I came to San Miguel for what I thought was going to be a one year vacation and to get Mexico "out of my system". About nineteen years ago I started my tour business based on the philosophy of wanting everyone to know,

appreciate and love Mexico as I do. I think I've been very successful in doing just that based on what my clients tell me after taking a tour with me. My tours are mainly in the States of Guanajuato, Michoacán, Querétaro and Jalisco. Many of my tours can be especially focused for people that are collectors of folk art, photographers or those that are fascinated with history and architecture. However all tours touch on most of these subjects. I'm always interested in what my clients most want to see and do and the tours start from there, however, Mexico is full of surprises and I'm always open to sharing them. You can be sure that I know where all the best bathrooms, bakeries and restaurants are located...What more could you possible want of a tour guide? For client comments please look at TripAdvisor.
¡Gracias!

Girlfriends of many years, two from kindergarten, have a birthday reunion in San Miguel. Wish I could have had more time with them as they were a great group!

Rob, Nancy, Doug and Barry, long time friends from Toronto, getting together for a vacation in San Miguel. Taking a stroll through Santa Rosa after comida and then on to Dolores Hidalgo for ceramics and ice cream! You are a delightful group of people and I look forward to your return to San Miguel.

100's of Conchero dancers here today in honor of Señor de La Conquista, an image of Christ that is in the parroquia. These kids are not Conchero dancers but they're adorable!

Well, it's not ALL about history, culture, art and food. Just ask Joan, West Hartford, Ct., in the middle and Sharon and Andy, Houston,TX.
Long time friends getting together in San Miguel and on our tour to Guanajuato. I'll never tell....

Allison and Jordan, Chicago, Ill...and if ever two people were meant for each other its these two! We had a great time eating our way through Guanajuato and the Santa Rosa mountains. Did a Mezcal tasting, tried a few bakeries and ended up with ice cream in Dolores Hidalgo. I hope to see you here again and bring those appetites. This photo was taken in front of San Miguel's first Pemex station.

On a tour of Guanajuato and Dolores Hidalgo with Sarah and Will from Portland, ME. and their drone! We stopped on the highway after leaving Guanajuato to get some videos of the town from up high. Later further in the mountains we stopped again for photos of a beautiful valley that I'm never able to really see as I've got my eyes on the road. I fell in love with the drone...it was like a character out of Star Wars and now I want me own and would love to take it to Bernal to look at the monolith from all sides. Thanks Sarah and Will for an eye-opening trip. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

Michael and Shelley, Charlottesville, VA. and Judy and Doug, Flagstaff, AZ., rendezvous in San Miguel for Doug's birthday...a big and wonderful surprise for him! We had a great time looking at and photographing ceramic Catrinas at the taller where they're made. Also a very special visit with Jennifer and her folk art museo at Rancho Jaguar www.museodeartepopular.com

Delightful family tour with Chuck and Donna, Morro Bay, Ca., and their son Charlie, Sao Paulo, Brazil. We stopped by the pantheon in Dolores Hidalgo to visit the Mausoleo of José Alfredo Jiménez, Mexico's favorite singer and songwriter who was born in Dolores Hidalgo.

A favorite mural...

What could be better than a horse on your roof getting ready to celebrate the Fiestas Patrias on September 15th and 16th. Anyone that loves fireworks should be here on those days!

It's always a treasure hunt on a tour to Dolores Hidalgo and there are definitely treasures to be discovered. Just ask Kathleen and John, Tulsa, OK and Kathleen's sister Lana, Palm Desert, CA. I hope you enjoyed the carñitas as much as I did!

First tour to Guanajuato since February 2020. Not as much change there as here in San Miguel vis a vis shops and restaurants. We had a little chat with Don Quixote before stopping for coffee. Debbie,
Kathy, Sara and Christine, long time friends from Dallas.

On a wall in my bedroom are many masks all minding their own business except for you know who! Within the past two to three weeks he’s acting up. I straighten him and he’s good awhile and then at night I walk into my bedroom and he’s freaking me out.

Nopal cactus loaded with tunas.

Granadas and tunas…looks like it’s going to be a great year for both.

Mexico...let me count the ways I love you!

And yet another piece of ceramic from Zipiajo in Michoacan...who could resist? The use of toilet paper always gets things home safely...who knew?

First time back at the Saturday Farmer’s Market...looks like they haven’t missed me😊. So happy to see and hear it once again and to buy some amazing produce. Not all the vendors are back yet but poco a poco. ’sMarket

This morning I was on my way to Buen Cafe, on San Jorge, to pick up some of their great Mac and Cheese when I came across these two murals. The bicycle mural has been finished but the other mural that is just around the corner is a work in progress. I'll have to go back next week to see the finished mural. In the meantime San Miguel is feeling and looking very good...time for everyone to think about a visit.

It’s duck and cover time in Parque Juarez when the egrets build their nests and go to the Presa to bring fish to their babies.

San Miguel is ready for Palm Sunday. And I almost got a smile! This special palm going to a special casa to take care of it for now and forever.

On my terrace watching this lone monarcha on it’s way to El Norte. Que vaya bien!

Mexico is full of surprises...I never know what I’ll see when I walk out my door. I hope this brings you all some Mexican sunshine.
