Hello John
Thank you for your comments. I understand your point of view.
I have also done some interviews in San Pancho -I interviewed some locals and long-time residents for my research. I'm using other sources as a research material, too -for example observation; conversations I've had with local Mexican residents, photographs etc.
So this message board is not the only material I'm using for my thesis. However I believe that this message board will widen the perspective of the social change that is going on in the village.
I hope you are all well, muchos saludos para todos que me conocen!
Abrazos, Riikka

: Nice to hear from you and great to hear that
: the family continues to grow.
:
: I am going to have to say Rikkii, I doubt if
: this board will have any valid research
: material for you as we are required to use
: English and the community you are writing
: about have rarley checked in and those that
: do post here, including me, will only see
: the changes as outsiders with our own myopic
: views and we, like you, have the resources
: to pick up and go to "a more
: comfortable world" any time we choose.

: I originally came to San Pancho in 2003 to
: do some voluntary work in Grupo Ecológico de
: la Costa Verde. I also wanted to learn more
: Spanish as I was a student of Hispanic
: Studies at the University of Aberdeen in
: Scotland.
:
: During my stay in San Pancho I also taught
: English at the local primary school. I loved
: living in the pueblo and that´s why I ended
: up staying there for more than 2 years
: instead of 3 months, as I had originally
: planned
:
: Right now I live in Finland and I study
: Sociology at the University of Lapland in
: Rovaniemi.
:
: I have some family in San Pancho as my
: boyfriend is from the village. The
: grandparents, greatgrandparents, aunts,
: uncles and cousins of our two children
: (right now we have just one but the new baby
: will be born anytime soon!)live in San
: Pancho.
:
: My research topic is about the social change
: that is going on in San Pancho. I have
: noticed that the small, beautiful little
: pueblo is going through some major changes
: now as the new investors are taking over.
: All these changes affect the original
: community. With my research, my aim is to
: find out what those changes are and how do
: the locals feel about them.
