Forgot to mention education. For many years my aunt worked at the Instituto de Allende where my uncle was also a teacher. Many well-known US artists taught at the Instituto and also at Balles Artes ( El Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura - - Ignacio Ramírez “El Nigromante” del Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes ) both of which are accredited in the US and have been since the 1940s.
San Miguel has also been famous for its Equestrian and dressage schools where Ecole de Caballo under Colonel Harold Black was once the go-to school for Olympic hopefuls from all over the world – there are still great riding schools in San Miguel.
Then there are the universities in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Guanajuato, (and I am sure Chris can add more) where students from all over the world can get world class educations.
Many from the US go to Mexico for health care – dental – eye glasses – where state-of-the-art facilities with state-of-the-art equipment can be found. We hear many stories from people who have received excellent health care in Mexico. Yes, there are exceptions just as there are elsewhere so let’s not get into that argument.
We just traveled the first leg of MX15 and so a great deal of construction which reminds me of all the new roads being built or rebuilt all over Mexico in recent years. The new road between Durango and Mazatlan is said to be one of the greatest feats for engineering in the history of the world – an amazing new road we hope to travel soon.
So sad that so many ignorant people have no idea of what Mexico is really about who feel a need to express their ignorance on this forum.
