The Indigenous Wixarika Community have been presenting the fifth annual Wixaritari Indigenous Festival 2010 at Plaza Caracol since March 7th and will be there until the 21st where they will have various activities like dances, ceremonies, music, lectures, and for the very first time they’ll be projecting the movie “Venado” (Deer), a documentary  about the pilgrimage of over 3 thousand kilometers that the Wirraritarie people do in order to show the importance and the presence of the youth in their communities, in addition to achieve compliance with the Western world.

Guadalupe Flores Flores, Officer of the National Commission for the Development of Indigenous Peoples (CDI) in Jalisco also lets us know that this same group has just returned from a trip to Europe where they visited 6 countries and 18 cities and they have chosen our beautiful Puerto Vallarta to present to the world they culture and way of living.

Let PEACE Take You on a Real World Home Tour

Yavette Holts-O’Shea – peacemexico.org

Be more than a tourist! Sample the many lifestyles of the Bahía de Banderas on PEACE Real World Home Tours.

Unlike other home tours, PEACE Real World Home Tours showcase upward focused, authentic pueblo homes where big world visions start small, together with multimillion dollar estates where the smallest details take your breath away.

It’s a real world view of the Bahía de Banderas as it evolves, combining a healthy combination of diverse communities. To really know the heart of this place, you have to scratch deeper to see more than what’s on the surface. What’s beautiful in the pueblo is also beautiful in the villa. The spirit of good will and the effort made to live and enjoy the richness of this idyllic region is the unifying factor.

The Real World Home Tour visits 4 exclusive homes, from luxury to modest, where you will see from the inside out both the differences and similarities in the lifestyles of the locals and the expats who make up this rich community. Includes transportation, light lunch, and a souvenir sports water bottle. You can even redeem your ticket for discounts at the PEACE store.


PEACE Real World Home Tours

Every Friday (January 22 – April 2)

Ticket sales open at 9:15 am from Bucerías Centro

Tour bus leaves: 10:30 am – Returns by 2:30 pm

Tickets: $450 pesos ($35 USD)

Includes transportation, tour map and souvenir water bottle

100% ticket proceeds support PEACE actions in communities around the bay
