This book is a quadruple offering of Livin' In Mexico: The Real Story, Livin' In Mexico: What It Really Costs, Livin' In Mexico: Housesitting, and Livin' in Mexico: The Yucatan And Riviera Maya, at a reduced price. The books have performed well, and reviews have been for the most part quite positive (45 reviews, 4 out of 5 stars average).Here's a compiled description of them: Livin' In Mexico: The Real StoryWhat's it like living in Mexico? It seems like a simple enough question; often asked, rarely well answered. Because Mexico is much more than just a warm sunny climate where you can beach every day if you want. For many, Mexico is hope. It's hope for a less complicated, simpler life, hope that every day has the potential to be the best day you've ever had. It's as much about what it represents; the freedoms, the leisures, endless summer, romance, walking the dogs off leash on the seashore at sunset. Mexico is as much a feeling as it is a place. That's what Mexico really is. Mexico is where tired hopes and dreams get a shot at coming true. How does it feel to live in Mexico is the question the author answers in this tale of expats, desperados, pirates, romance, Facebook (and the perils thereof), Mexico as Heaven and dead bankers bringing you beers, and the colorful characters who make a life where the sun shines hot and bright. Livin' In Mexico: What It Really CostsThis is the latest release in The Livin' In Mexico series by author Brian Burke. This book creates, describes, outlines, and outright lives five real-world budgets, from $500. to $2500 USD a month. It is intended to guide you, inform you, and price the cost of living across a number of different ways of life in Mexico, depending on budget. It starts monthly expenses beginning at $500 USD, and tops out at $2500 USD, creating detailed plans every $500 up. Some parts of this book will benefit from select passages from the authors' first book about Mexico, entitled 'Livin' In Mexico: The Real Story'. It's a best seller; and should be read by anyone considering a move across the border. While this book is about what it really costs to live in Mexico, that book describes what it's like to actually live there. Read both, and you're so well prepared you may as well have lived in Mexico for a couple of years already.Originally, House Sitting in Mexico was to be a chapter In 'Livin' In Mexico: What It Really Costs.' After all, it provides a cost benefit, it's a viable source for free housing, in return for something most of us have done all our lives. Seemed like a good fit. Although it didn't. Fit that is. It's one of those transactions that equally benefits both parties, and that's why, particularly in Mexico, house sitting is growing more popular.Livin' in Mexico: The Yucatan And Riviera MayaIf you've ever wondered what it's like to live in the beach towns near Merida, particularly Progreso, this latest book by Author Brian Burke will take you there. And to Merida. And finally, to Playa Del Carmen. Along the way, you will meet expats, see them function socially, how they party, use Facebook, (for deeds good and bad), and get a boots-(more likely flip-flops)-on-the-ground view of life in Mexico, through the eyes of Rob and Riley.
