Mexico City Travelogue – Day 8: Teotihuacan and Museo Dolores Olmedo

by Aimee Geurts | Sep 20, 2018 | Mexico City Mexico

Our last day! Up and out La Casita by 8am. Our guide for the day, David, picked us up. We were surprised to see him because we had booked this day with a woman named Marinuska and she didn’t mention she wouldn’t be our guide. More on her later. David was very...

Mexico City Travelogue – Day 5: Market Day

by Aimee Geurts | Sep 11, 2018 | Mexico City Mexico

Up and out the door by 830am for a day of markets. We all crammed into Sandra’s and Abel’s car, with Marie in the hatch space. We drove for about thirty minutes (the minimum it takes to get anywhere, even just across the neighborhood!) to La Cuidadela Mercado de...
