It’s good to be back in Mexico! After 5.5 months in Panama, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, it was great to return to a more familiar place. I headed straight from Mexico City to Oaxaca for ‘Dia de los Muertos’ (Day of the Dead). It is quite incredible to experience this Mexican tradition in person. The candles, the music, the flowers, the festivities. This is something that should be on everyone’s bucket list.
Today my parents fly into Oaxaca and I’m looking forward to showing them around my favorite part of Mexico for a week. I haven’t seen them since May when I was in Miami for my brother’s medical school graduation so it will be nice to have some quality time with them before I find an AirBnb in Oaxaca to settle in for the rest of the year.
