When the Pit Bull Bit Me in the Ass: & Other Stories from a Gringo in Mexico

By Nathaniel Kostar

Ever thought about moving to Mexico?

In 2016, Nathaniel Kostar crossed the border chasing love-and never left. Nearly a decade later, he's still living in Mexico, still learning, still falling deeper into the country's layered beauty and complexity.

In this vivid collection of essays and short stories, a gringo-turned-local shares his journey beyond the beaches and tourist brochures. From chaotic street corners to quiet moments of cultural revelation, Kostar explores the soul of Mexico with honesty, humor, and a poet's ear for language.

Whether you're dreaming of a new life abroad or simply curious about the realities of expat living, these tales will surprise you, move you, and offer a glimpse into the heart of Mexico and its people. Both tender and unflinching, this is a must-read for anyone considering a move south of the border-or anyone who wants to better understand it.
