MEXICO

Hola, 

Mexico for ten days is not enough, I don't know what was happening in my mind but I have to come back. I went to the Frida Khalo museum, she was amazingly talented and her house was beautiful although I wondered how much it was over represented for show. 

I caught the bus from Mexico City to Cordoba where Elisa and Ana Cris live. I stayed with Elisa and her house was so lovely, they grow coffee there and quite literally, have a small rainforest as their backyard. I had lunch and dinner with their family and I thought I could grasp general conversation in Spanish but boy do Mexicans talk fast and with the mixture of slang it was hard to keep up. 

I then went to see Natalia who lives in Queretaro and went to the historical district and saw a bunch of Christmas decorations based on the catholic stories: garden of Eden, Noah's arc etc. 

Missed my connecting flight last night so got to sleep in the Airport, but they did give me two meal vouchers worth $7.00 - I'm living fancy. It's like I'm Tom Hanks in the movie, The Terminal except my passport is still valid, and my country isn't at war. 

Worked out in the end- got the next flight for free and luckily the cheap airline doesn't change their prices.
