Against a backdrop of stunning blue water and endless white sand, they experience the heart's tug of war between the need for a place to call home and the desire for the freedom to roam. It is Poppa who tells the tales of these intriguing runaways, as together they encounter true loves, vicious drug dealers, charming rogues, clueless do-gooders, and a devastating hurricane. As he tries to make sense of his own vagabond existence, he offers his fellow expats booze, advice, and the occasional helping hand.
At the center of this extraordinary group is Poppa, the irreverent and savvy owner of the local beach bar. There they find the unpredictable, hedonistic, and sometimes frightening world of the tropics.
Fleeing boredom, bad marriages, and dead-end jobs, these adventurers wander south to Playa Paraiso-a lush, unspoiled village on Mexico's idyllic Caribbean coast.
