For Lynne Bairstow, Mexico has become more her home than her native United States. After living in Puerto Vallarta and exploring Mexico for most of the past 14 years, she's developed not only an appreciation but also a true love for the country and its complex, colorful culture. Her travel articles on Mexico have been published in The New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, Luxury Living, Frommer's Budget Travel magazine, and Alaska Airlines Magazine. In 2000, the Mexican government awarded Lynne the Pluma de Plata, a top honor granted to foreign writers, for her work in the Frommer's guidebooks to Mexico. David Baird is a writer, editor, and translator who feels uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person (too much like writing your own obituary). Now based in Austin, Texas, he has spent years living in various parts of Mexico, Brazil, Peru, and Puerto Rico. But whenever possible, he manages to get back to the Yucatan's turquoise-blue waters because he thinks he looks good in that color and because he's excessively fond of the local cooking.
