My husband and I are a retired couple who spend part of the year in our home near Nelson BC Canada, shared with our daughter, her husband and their two sons aged 6 and 8 years old, and the winter months in San Miguel de Allende. We enjoy spending our summers in Nelson sharing time with our family, gardening and exploring the beautiful province we live in. During our time in San Miguel we do volunteer work at Escuela de Educación Especial de San Miguel de Allende, a non profit that provides education and job skills to deaf young people. San Miguel also provides a great stepping off point to travel spots in Latin America. So far we have seen Cuba, Peru, Guatemala and Costa Rica and wish to next visit Colombia.
