Mexico City, Mexico – By the time we got to Mexico City, three and a half weeks after arriving in Mexico, we agreed one on thing (there is a first for everything): we LOVE Mexico. We originally thought we would spend about a month, 6 weeks tops, in Mexico – but we kept amending our timline and decided to stay 10 weeks – and that barely seemed like enough time to do all we wanted.

It really is a shame that more Americans don’t travel to Mexico. The stories about violence and crime are all we hear in the States, so I don’t really blame people for not visiting, but it really is a shame.
Mexico has a great mix of culture, art, architecture and beaches. In many ways (OK maybe in all ways) it is SO much easier to travel here than it is in Asia. It’s cleaner, the language is way easier, no one tries to rip you off or lies to you to get business. Mexicans are friendly and helpfull and there is music everywhere. Of course, it’s way more expensive than Asia, so I guess you get what you pay for.
