Im in Mexico. I was hoping to be better about blogging or writing in a journal, but I havent done either. I hardly feel myself, but things have been so amazing and beautiful.
I started in Mexico City, 20 million people big. Its big, busy, dirty, interesting, and full of everything. I stayed there a bit longer than I probably should have, but it sucked me in. I met some cool kids and they took me on a few adventures.
I feel much healthier where I am now though.
Im in Uruapan, which is a city in the state of Michoacan. Its full of big green mountains and delicious food. Ive been hanging around small children during the day and theyre adorable. I also pick avocados and mangos and put them into big bags. My lunch break includes roaming into the national park and sitting near any one of the many waterfalls. I wish that could be a permanent aspect of my life. At night, I drink some cold beers with the dudes. I sang karaoke last night, in Spanish.
I like the bus rides. I love that Im staying in a house with no windows or doors. I hate how Mexicans buy a lot of stupid stuff. I love the traditional clothes some of the women wear. I love the farms and small villages. I love the fruit and the ability to buy it anywhere you go. I hate that there are Wal Marts here. I love the pyramids amd anything else pre-hispanic. I hate not speaking Spanish.I love how nice everyones been to me. I love the colors.
I have less than a week left here. Time flies.
I dont think I´ll really remember this trip
