Meet Morgan Hardcastle
“San Miguel needs wider streets,” comments concerned 15 year old citizen J. Morgan Hardcastle. “and a better English teen section in the public library, some more fast food wouldn’t be bad either,” adds the Victoria Robbins school student with a chuckle. “But I think moving here has been a good experience for me, I learned Spanish, and got used to the culture, and made some good friends.”
His Parents Phil and Nancy Hardcastle, who run a real estate business called Terrenos y Casas San Miguel, brought the whole family down from Dallas Texas in August 2004 after visiting their friends the Kernekin’s in May 2004. They brought all their belongings and their dog Nahni who died that Christmas, but soon they acquired another dog, Kaila, who ran away and have since adopted two street dogs, Jessie and Helen.
“I think my parents made a good choice picking San Miguel because I feel like I can go places easily and safely, and San Miguel is pretty.”
Morgan enjoys being a 10th grader at his school Victoria Robbins more than studying at his previous school Los Charcos, where his little sister, Ria, attends now. “Charcos is decent but Vic’s is awesome” comments Morgan “But I would rather be playing video games or partying. My favorite Mexican Celebration is the 15th of September because watching the fireworks is fun!”
