For over 20 years, we’ve split our time between our rented apartment on California's northern coast and our 150-year-old adobe house in Guanajuato, Mexico. Fortunately, both my husband and I are writers who can work from anywhere. By splitting the year between the two places, we get to live bicultural, bilingual lives.
Our neighborhood in Guanajuato is walkable and vibrant. The charming, colorful town is a walker’s dream, with an abundance of pedestrian areas, winding alleys, and vibrant architecture.
In Mexico, I speak the mellifluous Spanish language every day. After many years of study and practice, I'm fluent, but that doesn't mean I have nothing left to learn. Once a week, I see my tutor, who is also my cultural interpreter and friend.
Although nowhere I've ever visited can match Guanajuato's vibrancy, I also appreciate the unique features of our walkable neighborhood in Eureka, California.
