The last InterNations event was just great: I had some very nice chats with fellow expats (even Canadians like me) in Mexico City.
Living in Ciudad Juarez
Known as 'the gateway to Mexico' due to its proximity to the Mexican border, Ciudad Juarez is a city in the state of Chihuahua. Ciudad Juarez is one of the fastest growing cities in the world, and it presents a great deal off opportunities to anybody looking to make a life abroad. The old city hall might be a good place to start if you're looking to learn your way around the city. The building has a facade dating back to the 1940s, and has carved chiluca stone detailing, and red volcanic tezontle. If you want to look even further back in to the city's history, you can see the Misión de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe. As the oldest building in the city (from the 17th century), the mission is continually used by the Catholic Church. Once you've got past the initial difficulties of moving, living in Ciudad Juarez can be just like life anywhere else. If you do need some help, and it's completely normal if you do, then an InterNations membership can benefit you to no end. There are thousands of forum posts and discussion groups to explore, offering personal tips from other expatriates about life abroad.

Moving to Ciudad Juarez
The Expat Magazine is one of the first places you can go to in order to get information on moving to Ciudad Juarez or any other foreign city. Once you've made the decision to become an expatriate, you've already made the first step to a new life, however, the planning and execution of your move can be tricky with nobody to help you. The articles in the Expat Magazine give InterNations members crucial information on various topics related to expatriation, including info on how to best time your move, what international finance and insurance options are available for expats and how you would best go about taking care of your paperwork.
Working in Ciudad Juarez
You could be working abroad as part of a volunteer service, you might have been sent over by a current employer to work in an overseas office, or you might be looking to set up your own business. Whatever angle you want to take for working in Ciudad Juarez, the thousands of other expatriates on the InterNations website can help you achieve your goals. The forums and discussion threads on the site cover a large range of topics, and just like the Expat Magazine, you can find something in there that will make moving to Ciudad Juarez an ultimately rewarding life decision. Other expats who have “been there, done that” and already relocated to Ciudad Juarez or any other Mexican city are, after all, the best source for information you can possibly get.

With InterNations, we had the chance to find a good bi-lingual school for our children in Mexico. They are gonna grow up as true 'third-culture kids'!
