A New Direction



It is a year since my last posting. During that time much has happened. The most significant event is our departure from Yelapa, Mexico; and our full-time return to Southern California.

Here's what I've been doing: 1) all nine editions of Adventures with Teo-Aventuras con Teo are reformatted with detailed artwork and embedded with actual Yelapa sounds to compliment the narrative; 2) work is nearly complete on the compiling and editing of three years, (one hundred and one entries) of postings on the Yelapa Memo blog. This compilation will be released soon in e-book and hard copy as Beyond the Guano: A Yelapa Memoir. Expected launch date is  January 30, 2016.

The goal of the forthcoming book is to offer all Yelapa visitors a unique view of the village. One section is dedicated to those considering retirement in Yelapa, or any other international location. Topics include budget, health care, security, language awareness and more. At the same time, it serves as a travelogue of where to go, what to eat and drink, and what you'll see.

In my humble opinion, Beyond the Guano offers much more than any of the travel guides. You be the jury.

The updated and enhanced nine editions of Teo are only available on Amazon at the following link:


Give a child the gift of literature this year. Then after January 30th, treat yourself to Beyond the Guano: A Yelapa Memoir. Bring smiles for two faces.

P.S. The new book will be released under my name: DW Risdon
