Mexico City! Final Stop of Section 2
18 Kasım 2023, Meksika ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
6 hour flight from Lima - watched crazy rich Asians and Dunkirk on the way over. A TERRIBLE 2 hour wait in immigration which was painful. Made to hostel at midnight ish.
Woke up, had to had wash clothes because no laundry. Got a sim, walked to Zocolo square and checked out the cathedral, got some amazing tacos to start the food frenzy.
Metro’d it to the Anthropologie museum where I spent a couple of hours. Met Rai who was from Chicago and worked in consulting for EY. Museum burnt me out so headed back to have a drink looking over Zocolo square at sunset. Grabbed some of the most chaotic tacos ever from taqueria especial.
Watched a bit of redzone, headed out for dinner and called it a night I was knackered.
Markets walking tour - 3 markets, insects, iguanas armadillos chillis and corn. Super fun few hours. Nicest guy ever found me to give me lunch and glass of wine too. Hopped to the gym - really wanted to go to this one with a view but it was closed as it was revolucion day. Came back and hit power hour (unlimited drinks for an hour) with some people upstairs, with domink, Jesus, Abbie zandra and others. Grabbed a quite taco dinner which I THINK gave me the worst food poisoning in my life later that night. Was the night from hell. This was after karoake where I had to sing beautiful by akon ofc.
Terrible night, had to miss my tour, got 2 Gatorade’s and just layed down. Went to this amazing pasteleria (madrid) where I got a croissant and a cookie. Apart from that sat chilling in the dorm talking to people ans watching Netflix to feel better. Hearty dinner of banana onigiri, popcorn and Gatorade.
Following morning felt MUCH better for the Teotihuacán tour. Loved how the name meant from people to gods. Guide, Boaz, from Holland was rly nice, met Bryan from San Fran, an English girl couple and family that literally lived everywhere. We got back to town super late just before 4 because of crazy traffic. I rushed to the post office which looked seriously majestic, just in time to post a postcard, then wondered around before getting a haircut. Was too scared of Mexican food before a flight so just showered and chilled in chill area before Uber to airport and got a kfc whilst watching grand tour Colombia special. Flight was a lovely 3 ish hour delay which was not nice but excited to go home and see people! This section of the Trip was special nOkumaya devam et
