"It was 12 years ago when I moved to Mexico, leaving my comfortable, familiar life and community, driving by myself to start a new life in a foreign country. Some sort of bravado or naivete or, as my friends would say later, courage, allowed me to pooh-pooh concerns about all the unknowns- culture, language, customs-and head off nonetheless."And so begins one of the more than two dozen essays in this anthology, written by "regular" women about their "regular" lives and how they decided to change everything and move to Mexico. In simple, engaging words straight from the heart, the contributors to Why We Left share their plans and preparations, hardships and challenges, joys and satisfactions as their journeys to new lives in Mexico unfold.

The Fun Side of the Wall is not just a book about retiring in Mexico. Much in the style of Malcolm Gladwell and Gregory Berns, the book is a critique of the way retirement has been commodified in the United States. This push for commercially structured senior living has left some Baby Boomers in search of more authentic surroundings. In Mexico, they've found something special - authentic community and a true sense of purpose and belonging. In this book you will uncover: Who these "Mexico Boomers" are The roles Ageism and Consumerism play in their decision to move Where they live in Mexico How they're actively creating authentic community How they're saving money Why they refuse to leave Why They Leave "People were begging me not to spend my life worrying about money, not to let others hold me down, and to go and experience as much as I could for myself." - Jan, 54-year-old hospice nurse. "What I've really found is freedom. I have my own time to pursue my own interests. I can write. I can walk. Most of my day is spent doing whatever it is I feel like doing. That is why I'm here. That is why I stay." - Fabian, 59-year-old yoga instructor. "In the beginning I felt guilty, like I was betraying my country. But medical expenses were gouging our savings, and most of our income was going to copays. In the end, we weren't running. We were just trying to live in a place we could afford." - Richard, 62-year-old retired salesman. Excerpt From the Book "Here is a fun fact: Before 1960, our "Golden Years" did not even exist. The term "Golden Years" was actually coined in 1959 when it was used to sell homes in a brand-new retirement community called Sun City. Located in the heart of the Arizona desert, Sun City was one of the first large-scale 55+ "Active Retirement" communities launched in the United States. Today, most of us take for granted the idea that we need to go somewhere to retire. But just 50 to 60 years ago that concept was totally brand new and, like most tightly held beliefs about retirement, totally invented. Today, a dynamic financial and employment landscape makes it a little harder to pinpoint what, exactly, retirement will look like for all of us. But even though we differ on how we'll actually do it, the present expectation for retirement sounds something like this: Work until you're 65 or 67. Make a voluntary withdrawal from the workforce. Collect your Social Security and retirement contributions. Sell the family home. Pocket some cash and downsize to a smaller place in a hip retirement community. Golf. Travel. Maybe volunteer. Have a heart attack in your sleep and die. Finally, cash in that funeral insurance. Memorial. Ground. Over."
