It takes all kinds doesn't it? Sure there's the hippy-dippy close to the earth with dreadlocks crew, and the old sometimes bitter burn-outs, and hard
core fishers, and the super secretive surfers, and the uber rich I-only-fly-in-on-my-own-jet setters, and the I've been coming here for XX years
boasters, and the ones that built houses at their dream spots (some of whom live there full time, some part time and some who are hardly ever there...
"oh, the Cabo house. we don't get down there much" Yep, they never figured out the Ex in the Ex-Pat thing).
And we have our weekend warriors, our dirt track purists, our oh my god Cabo is an abomination elitists, our oh my god Cabo is the bomb party girls,
and everyone in between.
Main thing is most ex-pats I meet are interesting folks. Sure some may have moved away from troubles up north, but most worked to figure out how to
make their dreams happen and managed to pull it off. They generally have an open world view and value new ideas.
That said, it's kinda fun down here. I just watched the southern Sea of Cortez turn a light shade of lavender as the sun set over the mountains. Had
a nice little surf in small waves with my neighbors this AM. People are great. Still some dirt road left to get to my house. All is good in this
Ex-Pat life.
