Beginning Again in a Foreign Land Virginia Moonstone Mazzetti

Virginia Moonstone Mazzetti knows that some would find it insane to uproot from a life in Washington State and start over on a plot of land in Mexico. Most people could never imagine doing something so daring.

But she's found others who have done the exact same thing themselves.

In Mexico, Mazzetti has met like-minded souls. These women have been in Mexico anywhere from two to fifty years. Each has unique reasons for moving there, but they all share the same courage and determination. And now, none of them ever plan to leave!

Through twenty interviews, Mazzetti explores the reasons for their odysseys and the peace, happiness, and adventure they have found in their new homes. She focuses on the desert peninsula of Baja California. The isolation has given the locals a pioneering, persevering spirit that Mazzetti can't help but admire in her new town of Todos Santos. It is that same spirit that is shared among her friends and interview subjects.

Mazzetti and her friends graciously invite you into their homes and will inspire you to start your own adventure to destinations unknown. You're never too young or too old to completely transform your life!
