If Paul Gaugain made it to Tahiti ,out of the city of lights , is there any hope in the Yucatan to start life all over again, in the most modest way and definitely not chasing any rainbows. Open minded ! Thanks.

They are a beautiful couple and we enjoyed visiting with them. They have both feet on the ground and very centered. They made us feel welcome and we are anxious to return to Merida and see them again. My wife and I met Doug and Robin on our recent trip to Merida (last Nov).

A wonderful article, great questions. I'm guessing there might be one part with which Doug might disagree: that Detroit is "a place on the planet not known for its poetic nature". Bravo, and thanks for the spotlight on Doug. What a handsome poet you all have on your hands in Merida! A wonderful article, great questions.
