Feature Post LIVE, LOVE, & EAT in Sayulita: A Recipe for Fresh Fish Soup
April 10, 2021 Aanya 0Comment
I LOVE living here in Sayulita! There are always trucks driving by offering fresh vegetables, fruits, shrimp, fish, tamales, etc. Yesterday I heard a truck selling fresh fish, and I just had to see what I could make with it for dinner. A beautiful, fresh fish caught that morning was waiting to be made into a wonderful fish soup. I had the fish descaled by the seller, and for just $80 pesos, I had the base for my fish soup dinner! I had never made a fish soup before, but thought it would be fun to try. I decided to roast the fish in a foil packet to get as much flavor out of it as possible. You will love this recipe!

There is no one who desperately seeks comfort & relaxation like a pregnant woman! I recently had the pleasure to indulge myself in a lovely prenatal massage at Buddha Spa in Sayulita. Even though I’ve lived in Sayulita for years, I had never been to the spa before. It was a great experience to be able to see it through the eyes of a first-timer or person who may be on vacation in Sayulita looking for an awesome way to relax. With a wide variety of spa services and packages offered, as well as a boutique full of boho-chic women’s clothing and accessories, it is clear why Buddha Gallery & Spa has a reputation for being the best in Sayulita.

Feature Post Aunt Terri Cooks: Mexican Sandwich Rolls
March 13, 2021 Aanya 0Comment
A few weeks ago my husband and I set out for Puerto Vallarta in the early morning hours. As we drove through the neighboring town of San Ignacio I noticed hand lettered signs along the highway for a local bakery, “El Columpio”. The name piqued my curiosity, El Columpio – The Swing. Soon my mind had drifted to other thoughts as I watched the first motions of a small town waking up. Workers boarded a bus, children held their mother’s hands as they walked towards the small grocery store, and dogs milled about as if they too had a scheduled routine to maintain.

March 2, 2021 Aanya 0Comment
Each month Sayulita Life gives back to our community. For March, 2021, Sayulita has chosen the Trashion Fashion fundraiser as our donation recipient. Trashion Fashion began just a couple years ago as a means to raise funds for Sayulita’s recycling program, and to get the community involved in recycling and to spread awareness about its importance. The concept quickly became a hit, as volunteer participants worked together to create fashionable looks out of trash or recycled items to be shown off in a fun runway fashion show for the community. Lina Weissman, creative director, tells us more about the event and how Sayulita Life’s donation will help the recycling program in Sayulita.
