Name three things that you wish you had brought and three you wish you had left at home.

I drive only 3.5 hours to Tucson so I can easily get what I need, being so close, I never had to worry about leaving anything behind.

I live in a house. Houses and condos are the typical places expats live in Puerto Penasco.

How did you choose your neighborhood and find your home or apartment?

Many expats live in my neighborhood (Mirador) plus it's just a few blocks to the beach.

I rent and pay way lower than the U.S., rent and utilities.
