How to discover the cultural scene in France by Priscilla
Hello, Moving to a new place and learning about the culture goes beyond adapting to customs and traditions. The art scene (music, art, literature, and cinematography) is also a big part of discovering a new country. What are the best ways to ...
I have a table full! The flyers fly around. Then create big loads for the recycling bin (please recycle!) I think these questions are suggested by the main management of expat.com, which is international, (i recently contacted one in Bosnia!), and ... Read More

Considering the amount of cultural activity and information concerning it available in France this question surprises me. It is easy to answer. Just go to the tourist office! Buy weekly magazines like the Gazette of Montpellier and Nimes. Keep your ... Read More

Marrying French In France by Kemy1123
Hi everyone. Just want to ask if anyone from here is a Filipina and got married in France? We were planning to get married in France. What are the requirements required for me? Thanks a lot to those who'll reply 😘
Hmmm - I doubt if this can apply to those Japanese tourists unless there is an association that helps them get around the requirements. Maybe they just come for the religious ceremony and the festive hoopla around it, without worrying about the ... Read More

Well, to be blessed by a Catholic priest I think you need to be Catholic, go to confession, get counselling for a good marriage, etc. I doubt if a priest would just marry anyone religiously without inquiry and propre procedure. As for Protestants, ... Read More

Hello - I can't tell you a lot but I know it is possible, even if you are not citizens or residents, because I saw a news item about the Japanese, who are crazy about all things French, coming frequently to France to get married here. ... Read More

Where Do I want to live? by gudgrief
I have been living in Zacatecas, Zac for 7 years and enjoyed it immensely. But the years are catching up with me and the 7900' altitude and hilly terrain are wearing on me. The cold winters are getting to me too. Ideally, I like a place at ...
Coatepec might work, who knows? You do sound very undemanding! Have you spent time there, looked for housing? Its health tradition might be interesting to you. And it is near Jalapa, in case you want or need city services, culture. Great cultural ... Read More
Free and low-cost leisure activities in Mexico by Priscilla
Hello, We invite you to share some information regarding leisure activities that are free or low-cost in Mexico. This information will give future expats (or even current expats) an idea regarding some of leisure activities that they might not be ...
No one has mentioned the evening passeo, I think it is called. Almost obligatory. Everyone works on looking good then they promenade around sunset in the central plaza. Great people watching and sometimes bands play. A nice glimpse of Mexican ... Read More

Thank you, changeling. Sorry, but I see a great difference between Northern American and Mexican culture. For one thing, social attitudes. There is more than Mariachi - which can be quite nice - to the music. You havent noticed? Just because one ... Read More

Such a negative, cynical outlook - are you like that everywhere or maybe it is time to leave Mexico? Telenovelas can be fun; of course some tv is free entertainment everywhere. But to think that anger is positive indicates your character perhaps. It ... Read More
