  Descripción

  Experience small Mexican town living. This is good for a couple with 2 children and the weary traveler. You will be there on your own. Need someone to house sit and clean my parents home in a quiet small town in the Altos de Jalisco region. Town is called Pegueros. Peaceful living. You can take long walks throughout the town and can take a walk in the back of town that leads to many farms . You have two room available in the bottom half of the house. One bathroom. There are a lot of “ “cenadurias “ where you can eat out in the afternoons. There is a cafe bar in the center with a nice atmosphere and Christina the bar tender/owner welcomes you with a great smile and makes some great drinks.
  
  Please read below of list of work needed from you.
  town 1 hour drive from Guadalajara and is 15 minutes from Tepatitlan which is a bigger town almost like city where there are nightclubs shopping food market (make sure you try the “choco mil” shake ) a bigger social atmosphere. Yet it still holds its old values like mid day siestas! Can catch the bus many hours of the day or a taxi that is in town as well.
  Town people are very friendly.
  ** please be aware that I have a big family and in a family emergency we fly into town and occupy the bedrooms. You can still have your own room but may have to move to upstairs patio bedroom. **

  This is an opportunity for you to rest for the weary traveler Might be tough if your on the move a lot and like to party this is a peaceful town. Days may seem long.
  Great for families with a kid or two. Teens also can walk around the town safely.
  The townspeople are very hard working and many work in their farms around he town and youth go off to schools many in college in Tepatitlan or work there .

  You have the option of sleeping in the two lower bedrooms. Each one has a full size bed. Bathroom downstairs and a big kitchen , living room and dining room.
  The house is a big and comfortable place for a couple or family. The upstairs this is where all my family stays when we go. So you can sleep in the bottom bedrooms. Please respect my fathers house.
