    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    My father is a passionate farmer. His knowledge and the local activities are indeed a very rich & cultural exchange. You can practice speaking Spanish. The farm is 25 minutes from the International airport in Guadalajara. Going to the local town, to get groceries, fruits, vegetables, the cheese maker, the tortilleria, fresh chicken/red meat. Or every Tuesday in Ajijic there is a bio market organized by the expats and local business owners.
