#WeLovePV Spotlight Series: Interview with Dez of My Deztination

Have you ever wondered what it was like to just sell all of your possessions and move to a foreign country and figure out how to make money?  Speak the language?  Embrace the culture?

We were too.

We sat down with Dez of mydeztination.com Because…she’s been there, done that.  She has a terrific blog of her 2 years since she’s been a resident of Puerto Vallarta.  The photography is particularly stunning! Read all about PV activities, expat resources and volunteer projects.

We love her positive vibe and inspiring spirit.  Meet Desaray.
