Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Since retiring to Puerto Vallarta last year Michael Nolen has been keen to give back to the community. 'You can only play so much golf before you start to question your retirement,' Michael philosophized.

Started by Michael in August 2015, The Good Morning Wake Up Show is broadcast as part of the University of Guadalajara's 104.3 FM radio station at the Puerto Vallarta campus.

The main purpose of the show is to get the English-speaking community of Puerto Vallarta involved with the activities and events of the university. 'I never saw any of the other English-speaking expatiates at the activities and events here,' Michael said. 'There were just so many great things happening that I wanted to get more people involved.'

Some of the regular activities available are cooking, yoga, Spanish and flower arranging classes - all of which are free. There are also sports games taking place on campus that you can watch, such as soccer, volleyball and rugby. Moreover, the university runs different events and festivals each year, such as the university's film festival, an annual event that showcases independent films.

Michael's show, however, isn't solely about the university; he is dedicated to all types of events and news in the Banderas Bay area, and regularly does updates on weather, safety and entertainment. He gives advice on such things as transferring money from the USA, to taking the correct buses around town. You can also expect great music, exclusive interviews, and Michael himself just loves to talk about what he's been up to and what's been on his mind.

Michael summarized: "We just try and inform the English-speaking population on how they can make their lives a little better, a little easier, and how they can get involved with all the great stuff that is going on, as a lot of the people down here are retired and looking for a sense of community. We're very grateful to the president of the university Marco Antonio Cortez, who has been very generous, not only with his time but also offering us the opportunity to work here at the radio station."

The Good Morning Wake Up Show is broadcast every Saturday from 9:00-10:00 am. For more information on the show, events and activities you can email Michael at 104.3wakeupshow(at)gmail.com.
