AL PAIS DE MEXICO

BIENVENIDOS A MEXICO! 

Where to begin? 
This gorgeous country is full of interesting places and people for you to enjoy on your vacation! Whether it's relaxing in the sun at Cancun or walking the cobblestone streets of San Miguel De Allende, visiting Mexico is a rich cultural experience topped with amazing places to see.

Culturally, Mexicans are gregarious and generous people who are frequently ready to engage in their visitors' lives. On your trip, you may meet Mexicans who offer you their food, home, or possessions for low prices. Because many Mexicans are underprivileged, it seems right to say that they're only interested in your money. However, Latin culture is extremely friendly, and I can assure you that many of these loving people will help you in whatever ways you need while you are visiting their country. 

SAFETY TIPS

After living in Mexico for four and a half years, I have gotten to know the beautiful culture and the ins and outs of Mexico. I lived in the capital, which is an extremely culturally rich experience. I would recommend visiting the capital with a large group of people and several Mexicans who know how to navigate the streets. 

Sadly, many of Mexico's poverty issues have contributed to corruption within the government, meaning that Police and other government officials are likely to steal money from privileged people. While you vacation and visit this country, make sure to leave behind your most valuable possessions, as they are excellent targets for burglars. 

Unfortunately, kidnapping is a big issue in Mexico, so it is important that you travel in pairs or in larger groups of people at all times, even when enjoying the market on Saturday mornings or using the restrooms. 

PRO TIP: Avoid asking Police for directions or help, especially in the city. There are plenty of smart Mexicans who can point you in the right direction. 

ENTERTAINMENT
These are some of my favorite places to visit in Mexico!

Xochimilco

Below is a photo of one of the most exciting places in Mexico, called Xochimilco. This boat ride adventure is perfect for all ages. Boat riders get to enjoy the food, color, and Mexicans while they relax in the shade of the boat. Definitely, a must do!

CULTURE TIPS

While you are visiting Mexico, remember the importance of immersing yourself in the culture. Mexican's are over the top. They truly love people like they're made of it. Your adventure in Mexico will undoubtedly be a phenomenal, but it will be even more phenomenal if you decide to immerse yourself in the culture and be with the Mexicans. Ask them questions, smile, be friendly, kind, and definitely don't treat any vendors as inferior.


HAVE FUN! 

Ultimitely, Mexico will be a pleasant, and fun surprise. Enjoy it. Live it up. Comment below if you've been to Mexico and would add anything to my "ENTERTAINMENT" list.
