Visiting the village of Queretaro which has an amazing historical central district. While wandering around and exploring, I was surprised by how much exceptionally good coffee I found!
Surprise around the corner. My final evening in Queretaro, I headed out wandering with my camera. I did find the church where the thorns grow in the shape of the cross but the courtyard was closed. My plan, turn left and walk! There was one area I hadn’t explored much. And Jesus, a man at […]

A quick search for coffee showed a spot near my hostel. It was late, too late for coffee, so I stopped so I would know where it was in the morning. That morning was yesterday and my experience was exceptional! Alejandro explained the different coffees they had, which was best for chemex or aeropress and

I’ve been very impressed with this city! I’m staying in the historic central area so outside areas are probably very different. The central area is cobble stone streets, polite and courteous drivers, walking everywhere, huge range of food and dining options and very friendly people. Hours walking yesterday! For roughly five hours, I was out

There is so much variety here! Hamburgers, sushi, pizza, bakery, coffee, chapulines (grasshoppers) and more. Original architecture, Spanish architecture and so many monuments in such a small

UPDATE…now, with actual photo’s rather than blank spaces. Really slow wifi last night kept disconnecting! The photo above is from a weeknight when the street is actually really quiet! Interesting, yes! Pricey, yes! Not my favorite place to be. I don’t much like big cities, preferring the more intimate connections of smaller villages. Mexico City
I’m a bit overstimulated after being here more than a week. Every evening, something is going on and crowds grow so large, it is difficult to move about. As the week neared the end and the Dia de los Muertos, tourist crowds grew even more. Nothing personal but Oaxaca is a different city and a

Clouds gently brush past me here on the patio in San Jose del Pacifico. It’s moist and it’s cold! And, it’s mid-afternoon! No wonder many cabana’s here have fireplace! This is a very quiet little village! Not much going on here! I decided to stop here for a night or two on my way to

Tonight, finally, I have good WiFi. They actually got a new service installed last night and it is surprisingly fast compared to past experiences! Found good gelato before leaving Zipolite! Pluma Hidalgo is coffee country in Oaxaca. There are a lot of coffee farms around! Tomorrow morning, I’m being picked up and going to visit
