“We renovated a historic house in the oldest barrio of the city, and we walk everywhere and at any time of the day or night. We picked Querétaro because of its dry climate, here we don’t need air conditioning or heating, and also because of its clean streets and plazas, its compactness and ease of getting around.” Christiane and Tom are the new Queretanos.
