After spending her childhood regularly moving between what they termed the “Fernandez” triangle (Venezuela, Great Britain, and Canada), Ana’s family settled in Canada in 1965, making Toronto their home for several years. When her family returned to Venezuela in the early 70’s, Ana decided to make Canada her permanent home.

In 1980 she moved to beautiful British Columbia. Ana worked in the financial services sector for many years. Then, after surviving more time than she cares to admit in the bone-chilling cold of Northern BC, she headed south to sunny Mazatlan. Although she began her Mexican adventure as a snowbird, Ana has now made Mexico her full time home. In the summers she still visits family and friends in Canada, and considers herself very blessed to be able to do that.
