Adventures in Paradise: Memoirs of an Entrepreneur in the Yucatan.

An inside look at what it is really like to live and do business in Mexico. It’s the story of an entrepreneur’s journey in starting and growing a factory in Mexico to over 500 employees, including the trials, tribulations, persistence and joy of working with a talented group of young Mexicans. During the journey characters from all walks of life are encountered and some of their stories are told as well. These characters include Mexicans and odd ball ex pats who have interesting stories in their own right. Some are other entrepreneurs and some are shady types as if ripped from the pages of a Jimmy Buffet or Carl Hiasson novel. The vignettes are intertwined with the adventure of living in Mexico.
