Dear Diksha: Yes, I check the Housing posting on °µÍø½ûÇø every day but so far nothing that's right. I'll keep checking. I'm also using a real estate agent but so far he has only found me places without a real kitchen, and I like to cook. ... Read More

Horrible, but true. There was a famous/infamous case of a model named Marla Hansen who had a lovely rent-controlled apartment in a gentrifying neighborhood. To terrify her into leaving the cheap apartment, the landlord hired thugs to slash her face. ... Read More

NYC Rob: I agree completely about NYC. Personally, I believe it is dying. Manhattan used to be a kind of beacon for talented young people who wanted to try their hand at painting, making music, writing, etc. In other words, those with more drive and ... Read More

Carrie, While I have not been to San Miguel de Allende, I have a feeling it might be a bit to "artsy fartsy" for me...I've heard quite a bit about it. Like I said earlier, I'm a "big city girl." Regards, Pamela Read More

Answering your question about my experience in Mexico... by Professormarie

My experience in Mexico is not the typical foreigner's. As I am Cuban-American, I grew up fully bilingual, fluent in Spanish and comfortable among Latin Americans. Also, I was granted a prestigious fellowship in the early 1990s and as a result, ...

Diksha, Thank you for your kind greeting. I don't know how the nickname "ProfessorMarie" became known. That is what an acquaintance back in New York calls me, out of respect, she claims, for the academic titles I have earned in the ... Read More
