It Was a hard month

Back in summer 2005, i went to southern mexico, to be part of a "camping group" in a community hidden in the sierra. The thing was try to help the community with what they wanted us to help. It was one great month.

My team was the coolest one... well, for me they were. I went to flee from worries i had raised in tje city, went cuz i was heart beaten... cuz i needed to make peace with myself.

It worked out pretty well... By teh end of the month i was exaust... I had one day to go back to my city, sleep a bit, and go back to college. I remember i didn't feel the trip back home. I got a ride with the parents of another friend who also went there and that was it...

I want to go back soon. Maybe same community, maybe another one... I want to breath that air.

Chapala! Boca de Iguanas! Barra de Navidá!

-backpacking... wasting time... feeling free-

sunny 25 °C

Those Were Good Times

it all began when we were 15 years old... me and my mates. Pako has this holiday home at chapala lake and we went to slack there for a week or so... since then we've been going once a year either to the lake, or to the beach to camp... or both of them.

Its a really good vacation, and everytime we make it there's new people that come with us... sadly i couldnt be there for Xmas 2007... this time they moved to La paz, in baja-california... i can assure that most likely this new destination will be the new regular backpacking point 4 me and my mates...

Even Earlier in Time - CANCÚN-

trips are best when made with good friends

sunny 28 °C

Cancún - 2002 I was revising my image folders to look for more old stuff to post before actually getting to the present, and i noticed this trip i made at age 17... It was cool, my own country, with two of my best friends. Deffinetly worth speaking of.

Before actually getting to cancun we spent some time in several Mayan ruins. The first night we went to the shitiest club in town, but actually had a lot of fun... a night worth forgetting. next night, we couldn't get to a table-dance hole... so we went to cocobongo, we got so wasted... next day were supposed to go on an excursion with mano's family (one of my mates) but couldn't bare the headache... we ended up eating improvised sandwiches at a bench and feeling like shit on the ferry back... On another excursion we got a ride from an old american couple and got a free entrance to a sea-turtle place... we simply sneaked in.

I liked the most Tulum. The sand is beautiful... it has the most decaying mayan ruins i've ever seen... you can tell this civilization was getting to its end... its also got a pretty cool beach with not many tourists.. next to the crowded one... we just had to swim a bit and/or walk a rock passage... like 20mts long...

Yeah! i loved the trip
peace
