We are an active couple our sixties spending winteres in upstate NY and summers in Tucson on a roughly 8month (winters)/4 month split. We would like to shift that split from Tucson to Mexico. We specifically want to avoid hot and humid, and mosquitoes as I am a mosquito magnet it seems. Ideally temperate and dry with an occsional hot spike is fine. Close to architectural and natural beauty as we are big hikers with a dog, and hoping for a true Mexican flavor rather than loads of tourists. I have searched this forum and many other sources and keep coming back to SMA, Ajijic, but these seem a little unoriginal at this point-over-discovered? I am tempted by Guanajuato . Planning on doing a visit this summer to get an idea in order to make the shift in 2023. We would be driving in from NYS. I would so appreciate your insights for "off the beaten path" areas that are still safe but deeply nourishing if that is not too corny a phrase.
