• Puebla

    Jan 18–20 in Mexico ⋅ 🌬 20 °C

    📌 Puebla was a different vibe, we arrived to this quote grand central area that still had a significant amount of Spanish architecture. We were keen to eat and found a local sandwich called a cemita. We found this spot and it started to fill up with locals, the food came out and we definitely overestimated the sizes! They were huge!

    📌 The streets were very colourful, there were plenty of unique shops to suss out and several markets. The Mexican food was delicious but we were becoming less enthusiastic about it. Despite this we had a delicious meal on our last night, we enjoyed some tasty churros one afternoon and we also tried the poblano (a deep fried sandwich).

    📌 One of the highlights of Puebla was Lucha Libre, local wrestling! The atmosphere was wild, the locals were very loud. There were 5 matches and they were super dramatic 😅 It was interesting to watch but it did get a little repetitive until the final match started and the atmosphere hit another level, fighters were wrestling in the crowd, they were doing flips and taunts! Quite the show!
