Michelle Wedderburn

I am my Ancestor’s Wildest Dream

Michelle Wedderburn, the visionary behind Casa ELM Boutique Guesthouse, has called San Miguel de Allende, Mexico her home since 2018, alongside her son. During these years, she has curated a brand that embodies their unique perspective on life, reflecting the warmth and embrace they’ve discovered in Mexican culture. Michelle wears multiple hats as a guesthouse proprietor and relocation advisor, finding her true purpose in these roles.

Through fostering connections within the expatriate community, Michelle not only cultivates a sense of belonging but also acts as a catalyst for their collective journey. Viewing herself as a healer, she offers comfort to those seeking a reprieve from the stresses of American life, embracing the opportunity for a fresh start abroad. Michelle’s time in Mexico has been an enriching experience, enhanced by the supportive community that surrounds her.

"San Miguel de Allende has become our cherished new home. In 2018, after 1.5 years of meticulous planning and 6 months of packing, downsizing, and preparing for our move abroad, my son and I finally arrived in San Miguel de Allende. Since then, life has been an incredibly fulfilling journey, and I am deeply grateful for the experiences we've had in Mexico.

As the Founder of Casa ELM in San Miguel, we have had the privilege of being a part of countless journeys of individuals relocating to this vibrant city. I extend my heartfelt thanks to those who dare to live beyond the ordinary, seeking purpose in healing and the creation of community. These are the gifts I cherish, and I am honored to share them with you."
