Mexico is an incredibly colorful country! Arriving in this amazing place, I felt like I was on another planet! Everything is different here! Here, as if everything and everything lives according to other laws.

The flight, of course, was tiring, but when the plane landed, my girlfriend and I squealed with happiness =) - Mexico conquered from the very first minutes! Wonderful Spanish speech is heard everywhere - what a joy it was to practice the language and overcome your barrera lingü í stica! =) And the Mexicans generally broke into a smile when they understood that I was trying to speak with them in their language =)

Our tour, unfortunately, was not very long, of course, we wanted to spend more time in this magical place. Therefore, we enjoyed every minute spent in this country! But Calypso-M Tour, we were promised that even in a week we would be able to see a lot of sights:


Zocalo Square, Anthropological Museum, Teotihuacan - it's so strange to walk around the square, climb the pyramids where people belonging to the Mayan civilization once walked, where many unfortunate people were killed, whom the Mayans considered their enemies! At that moment I experienced an indescribable feeling!

Mexico is amazing - here you can marvel at the beauty of the opening landscapes (take at least the Gulf of California - what kind of view will open before you if you visit there! However, you will also like the land =)) - Copper Canyon, cacti-cacti-desert! Wonderful! =) ), but the beautiful landscape contrasts against the background of the poverty in which the Mexicans live...

Traveling around Mexico, we met the indigenous people - the Tarahumara Indians, well, to be more precise, we got acquainted with their habitat =) It was very interesting to hear about their traditions and religion.

In general, the peoples of Mexico are very versatile, despite the fact that the country itself is not large. On the penultimate day of our trip, we visited the Mennonite community (by the way, there my friend and I tried a very tasty cheese that the Mennonites make themselves, we even took a little more with us, though we ate it, we didn’t even “survive” until the next day =)) ). We were told that this people expels those who do not honor the Mennonite traditions!

It was sad to leave the country of the sun, cacti, tacos and burritos)))) , on the last day we still managed to visit the Pancho Villa Museum - the house of the Mexican revolutionary, and after the tour we immediately went to the airport. Hope to go back there again!
