San Cristobal 2018

So kids, I am not into writing much. Too tired and need to save my energy so just posting a few pics and later I will share a lot more about the whole adventure.

 Here is a our lovely room at Le Gite de Sol. We have stayed here many times and love the big warm blankets, free breakfast, great location and the people are super nice. I will write more later about this great economical, clean B&B hostel. Very grateful to our hosts!

 My shoes totally disintegrated. Oh my goodness. Well you see my shoes got packed away into to storage during one of my moves and I was so sad but in this last move as I was going through everything I found them and I was so happy. I brought them along on the trip but they were much to hot to wear. I think I wore them in San Cristobal on the way down...don't remember.

Anyways 5 months in the hot humid climate...sitting under the bed in a plastic bag so scorpions, ants and spiders didn't make there home in them....I brought them with me as we make our way home and I put them on it San Cristobal.

As we are walking in the market I feel something weird and notice they are totally falling apart. So while low on funds I splurged and got new shoes.

 Ta da! Aren't they cute. Not what I normally would get but the price was right and I definitely need them...especially if it's raining or ....dare I say snowing as we returning to Vancouver soon.

 Look at this!!! Look! So sweet!! The sign is actually for the tree but the dog sleeping there makes it looks like it's for him.  "Take Good Care of me " is what it basically translate too.

 Walking around San Cristobal. So much to see. So many beautiful clothes and I wanted to buys some so bad and some amber but just don't have any money for that. Next time...it's what I always say...but I mean it. Maybe Angel and I will actually go live there sometime. She said she would like that. It's cold and fresh and she likes that.

YVR airport to San Cristobal de Las Casas #AdventurezInMexico



Hola Amigos, so this is the journey so far. I hope you like it.

If you do like and are able could make a little donation to my Patreon and help support us a little.  Think about it! I would really appreciate it! Gracias. https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?c=210166



Adventurez In Mexico is a blog about the Journey of a Canadian Mother and Child(whose father is Mexican) and their Adventurez and they travel, learn and explore the Mexican landscapes, language and cultural traditions. 

Tina, who goes by Cristina aqui and Angel, but they like to call her Angela, became pregant in Mexico but due to circumstances such as 9//11 and other issues returned to Canada to have her child. She could not return until Angel was 6, then again at 7 and at 10, she managed to get the money to come to Mexico for 5 months. The father helped with the first trip but after Tina has raised her child alone as the child's father is poor. Oaxaca is a very poor state. People are lucky if the make $20 a day. Now Tina, me, I have managed to get back for Angel's 15th year, a very important year in a young Mexican woman's life. We will have a tiny Quinceañera 
But really just coming to Mexico is the gift. Stay tuned for our Adventurez In Mexico as we will be here until the end of February. Follow along and learn what it is like to live like Mexicans in Oaxaca do. Come visit. Come to Zipolite, West Jet is going to have a big sale in November...if you coming please let me know...I need some things, like eucalytus oil and probably more lavender.


We have a wish list,
2 fishing rods,
2 old bikes
a bunk bed, so Angel can have her own bed
things like that. Not much...

Okay, besos y abrazos!
Zipolita (Cristina) y Angelita (Angela) really Tina and Angel but they change our names here..
They don't like the name Tina...it means bathtub and they think Angel is a boy's or mans name so they change it...to Angela. Different cultures...did you learn something...we will teach you lots.

Stay tuned for more Adventurez In Mexico #AdventurezInMexico

HOLA AMIGOS!! FELIZ NAVIDAD! I can't sleep, I got up and was going to meditate but watched this Short Film of Adventurez in Mexico instead (See bottom of post!).  It's 32 minutes, just so you know but it has lots of pretty scenery and you can really get a good feel of Mexico and it has music so I hope you'll enjoy it..

It brings back such great memories. Angel was so little, time has really flown.  So if you can't go on Christmas vacation and you need a little break, check this out!!

School is going well, I am learning how to upgrade my Web Design skills and make things Responsive. That means fitting nice on cellphones and laptops. Tricky but good to know. Here's an example- This is a assignment I had.The design is not perfect but it's a good start. The code is all html5 and css3. To see what it looks like on a phone, collapse the browser to about 300 pixels across or just put this url in your phone's browser   http://ecuad.ca/~twinterlik/

Here's our visit to the Cultural Museum in Oaxaca in February 2013. I thought I had put up a video for this but guess it got overlooked when we got home as I had so many others to get up.

Here it is in all it's 8 minutes of glory!! The gardens are especially beautiful but the architecture and then all the displays...really is amazing.

I feel so blessed that we were able to visit and that I could share such an important part of my daughter's history with her.

Oaxaca 2013- Museo, Iglesia, Chocolate y More

It's late, I will try to add a bunch of text later.

We went to the Cultural Museum of Oaxaca on Feb 12 2013.
It's right next to the gorgeous Santa Domingo Church.

The Museo is huge and amazing.

I have some great photos that I want to make into videos, and I am anxious to put those up.

It was a tough adjustment this week. The weather in Vancouver didn't help, today was a bit better.

Hope to get a new camera soon. Really looking forward to that. I've got a lot of work to do this next week. I'll be pretty busy...so you'll need a little patience waiting for the videos.

So for now just check out photos and if you have any questions just ask. :D
