What does everyone need in Guadalajara to make life easier (Non UAG Related) !
What does everyone need in Guadalajara - Mexico to make life easier !

Lets not talk about or include UAG required items at all.

Lets be positive, be prepared, some things are hard to find in Mexico without going all over the place.

You may be here to study, but you also have a life, one must relieve the tension and not have a Nervous breakdown !

What a collection follows, you either need a truck, lots of visiting relatives, flea markets or deep pockets in Mexico.

Where can one find these things if at all in Mexico for a good price ?

Every now and then, someone could stumble onto a good store where the stores purchase things, maybe even a purchasing club and I do not mean SAMS or Costco.

IronMan, a hand held camera in the theater.

Learning spanish is a must.

A friend from Guadalajara told me that men in womans clothing at some plaza walk around in the evening. This may not be a very macho thing that some/few Mexican men are into.
