For expatriate Americans, life in San Miguel feels like home, free from angst



The Oregonian, http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/margie_boule/index.ssf?/base/living/1078232591227530.xml



San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

>If you lived here, you'd be home forever. At least, that's what the locals say. Not the locals with dark eyes and black hair and childhood memories of the place. No, it's the more recent residents of SMA (as the Americans call it) who've fallen in love with their new hometown.

>Americans are everywhere in this 450-year-old colonial silver mining town, as ubiquitous as the glittering Jesus statuettes in the dollar-fifty-a-ride taxicabs and the gentle vines that reach over high walls to brush your hair as you walk to the Jardin at the city's center.....>
