Meeting some expats - Organic food and yoga

[Monica]

Hi !
I'll be coming to Guanajuato from Montreal, on January 10th and I will be staying there for 1 month or 2. During my stay I would like to meet some of you, as I'm planning to move to Guanajuato next winter, and it would be nice to hear about your experiences.
I'm also intending to take some Spanish classes and to practice yoga during my stay and would like to have some references for good Spanish schools as well as yoga studios.
I'm also looking for organic vegetables and fruits and I think that some expats are growing organic for themselves and are also selling them but I don't remember where I had the information.
My mother tongue is French, so forgive me if I'm making some mistakes in English ! By the way, if there are some French speakers who would like to meet me during my stay it would be nice ! And I'm also speaking Spanish (but still in the process of learning it !).
Thanking you in advance for your answers and looking forward to meet some of you during my stay !
Merci d'avance pour vos réponses, et j'espère pouvoir rencontrer certains d'entre vous durant mon séjour à Guanajuato.
Happy Christmas to all of you !!!

Hi Monica,

I just arrived a little over a week ago, so I'm still very much in the process of figuring things out myself. But I'd love to meet you for lunch or coffee. Let me know when you arrive!

Thanks Ann for your answer ! Yes, definitely I would like to meet you for lunch or for a coffee ! Are you coming to Guanajuato as an expat or only visiting ? I'm new to this forum, and I'm wondering how I could contact you when I'll be in Guanajuato ? By posting here ? Or is there any mean to contact each other ?
Have a good time exploring Guanajuato !

I moved here to live indefinitely! I visited last November (2017) and loved it. My phone is a USA number which you can use if you have a USA number 510-703-8558. But it only works when I have internet. Email is annceraldi@gmail.com

Thanks a lot for your phone number and email address ! I'll get in touch with you before leaving and when I'll be there. It's wonderful that you're ready to make the BIG move ! I'm visiting Guanajuato with the idea of moving there too, and it would be nice to hear from people who already dared taking the leap ... it's inspiring for the ones who are at the beginning of the process !

Hola Monica:

I just bought a home here in the area above the Baratillo. I am also interested in meeting some expats. I did follow a few links on this website and have met a couple that way. the Sunday Brunch looks very interesting. Maybe you will come to one of those. there is also an Open Mic that I have gone to a few times to read some poems. It is a nice group if that is your interest. there is plenty of yoga and organics here.

Feel free to call me or email or texts or WhatsApp if you want to meet for a cup of coffee sometime. James (360)393-9506; jim@doranlegal.com.

PS. I am appointing the apartment up above my own and it will be rentable soon if you or someone you know are interested. It is a nice place, remodled a few yeaers ago and in a very nice location only 5 minutes walk to the Jardin. JD

Hola James,

Thanks for your reply ! Where is the Sunday brunch ? Have you been there already ? Yes, I will probably come to one of those.
What is the Open Mic where you went reading some poems ?
I might be interested by the apartment for rent, especially if it's only 5 minutes walk to el Jardin. I'll contact you when I'll be in Guanajuato. Thanks for your contact details !
Buenas tardes !

Look on this site for the Sunday Brunch posts. Not too long ago someone put the list of dates and restaurants in a post.

The Open Mic is right close to the center of Town, walking distance from here or the Jardin.

You will find everything is pretty easy here once you figure a few basic thigs out about the layout of the City.

Please do get in touch about the apartment. When do you arrive?
