summers or frigid winters. In fact, the Mexican government
is actively inviting people to come into the country, and
welcoming them with open arms. Lake Chapala is the # 1 choice in Mexico, with an English-speaking infrastructure already in place to make you feel right at home. |

Live your dream in Ajijic, Lake Chapala
Activities
galore – many English speaking organizations and things to do: We enjoy
live theatre, movies in English, the Guadalajara Philharmonic
Orchestra, fiestas and parades. We can golf and play tennis year
round. We can travel and vacation within Mexico. We can dine
in different restaurants every night (living here we can afford to,
so why not); many of which offer live music. There are numerous
charities and organizations to get involved in. Volunteers are
always needed; no degrees necessary, just a willingness to help.
The rewards are enormous! Enjoy tours to nearby towns famous for
crafts or distilling, like Tonala, Tlaquepaque, and Tequila or
visit other wonderful villages deep in culture like the
swiss-like village of Mazamitla (Pueblo Magico), a two-hour drive from
Lake Chapala.

decision as to whether Lake Chapala is right for you.
However, information alone is not enough.

and soul, not just your mind. Only then can you truly
understand “the Magic of the Lakeside”; only then will you know if
Mexico is right for you. |

Focus introduced me to paradise… Lake Chapala
Marlene Robertson (8 years Lakeside)
“The very things that drew me to this part of Mexico in the first
place, are what keep me here. The lovely people, totally
awesome weather, 3-hour drive to the beach, affordable cost of
living, beautiful city of Guadalajara a scant hour away, and
a half-hour drive to an International Airport.
I just love the feel of the place and couldn't possibly live as
well in Canada for what it costs me here... and live is the key
word. Life is good. In fact, life is great and I thank God every
day that I chose Mexico. It's truly home. Thank you Focus on
Mexico. You showed me the way." |

Discover Lake Chapala on a Focus on Mexico Educational Tour
Since 1996 we have been bringing groups
to Lake Chapala where participants have the opportunity to learn
what it is really like to live in the real Mexico. The
programs are designed to give the perfect balance between education,
from our seminars, experience through our orientation tours,
practical advice from the Focus Staff and local residents,
understanding through participation and lots of great food and
fun. |
| |
The outcome of our participation on a Focus on Mexico
Educational Tour was a confidence in the integrity of the program
and access to a wide range of experts, who provided well informed
knowledge and advice on a broad range of subjects. The opportunity
to meet informally with fellow Canadians and Americans to
ask candid questions and gain insight into their reasons for
living and investing in Lake Chapala, was most informative and
re-assuring. The experience and knowledge of our Focus Program
Directors, the compatibility of our tour group colleagues, the
tantalizing luncheons, suppers and other events with
friendly reception by all, are lasting memories. We joined a Focus
program to gain knowledge and understanding of Mexico. We
have no reservations in recommending the program to anyone who is
interested in learning about Mexico. The opportunity to live
full or part-time, in a secure and attractive environment, is a
natural outcome.

Until One is Committed |
| |
Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the
chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all
acts of initiative (& creation), there is one elementary
truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid
plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one
that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events
issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of
unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which
no man could have dreamed would have come his way.
Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it, boldness has genius, power and magic
in it. Begin it now…
