San Miguel de Allende Trippers is an episode of the popular television series, House Hunters International. Season 29, episode 5 features a couple who is seeking a vacation home in San Miguel de Allende, a beautiful and historic city in central Mexico.

The couple, Lisa and Andy, live in Houston, Texas and have visited San Miguel de Allende many times before. In fact, they love the city so much that they have decided to purchase a vacation home there. The episode begins with the couple sharing what they are looking for in a vacation home. Lisa wants something that is "light and bright" with an outdoor living space and proximity to downtown San Miguel de Allende. Andy wants something with a view and a space to work from home.

Their budget is $500,000, which according to their real estate agent in San Miguel de Allende, is a solid budget in the current real estate market. The episode shows the couple touring different homes in San Miguel de Allende with their agent. The first home they see is a beautiful Spanish-style villa that has been fully renovated and restored. The home features a rooftop terrace with a stunning view of the city. While Andy loves the home, Lisa is not as impressed. She feels that the home feels too dark and heavy.

The next home they visit is a modern, minimalist home. It has clean lines and plenty of white space, which Lisa loves. However, the home's location is not ideal for Andy's work as it is not close enough to downtown San Miguel de Allende. The couple also visits a charming colonial home that has been fully renovated and restored. The home has a beautiful outdoor courtyard and is close to downtown. However, the home's layout and size do not meet their needs.

Throughout the episode, the couple struggles to find a home that meets both of their needs and preferences. They also face challenges related to the real estate market in San Miguel de Allende. The city has become increasingly popular among international buyers, which has driven up prices and made it more difficult to find a home that meets their budget and preferences.

In the end, the couple does find a home that meets their needs and falls within their budget. The home has a beautiful outdoor living space, a view, and is close enough to downtown to accommodate Andy's work. The episode concludes with the couple excitedly planning their future trips to San Miguel de Allende and their new vacation home.
