Their hearts were stolen by Mexico. Paul, born in Mexico City, and Lindsay, originally from Portland, have called Puerto Vallarta home for over 17 years. Both of their boys were born here, proudly earning the nickname “pata saladas” (or salty feet, a term for locals). Their deep love for Puerto Vallarta—its people, culture, and stunning natural beauty—inspired them to create the city’s finest culinary tours.
