The adventures of the Mel

Bwenos Eye-rez

ARGENTINA | Tuesday, 15 Apr 2008 | Views [215]

I quite like Buenos Aires as a city. Much more western than anything in I-have-the-population-of-your-entire-country-in-my-capital Mexico, but still with its own distinct personality and Latin America feel. We only spent a couple of days there (we will ... Read more >


Adios Me-hi-co

MEXICO | Sunday, 13 Apr 2008 | Views [215] | Comments [5]

Before I embark upon my journey through South America, I must say adios to Mexico, or perhaps just hasta luego. You never know... In keeping in line with my farewell to Canada (and a gross lack of time - if you haven't noticed, it's my birthday and ... Read more >


Caribbean beaches

MEXICO | Wednesday, 9 Apr 2008 | Views [255] | Comments [3]

Good afternoon folks, I trust this post finds you all well and enjoying work *relatively small snigger*. I have just spent 5 days lounging around on Caribbean beaches, so I don't really have too much to report. I know, you hate me. It's okay, you're ... Read more >


Chicken Pizza

MEXICO | Friday, 4 Apr 2008 | Views [268] | Comments [1]

Greetings earthlings, I write to you hastily from an internet cafe in the hope that I will finish this post before they cut me off in an unknown amount of time. I don't have too much to report though. Yesterday we arrived in Piste, a small town just ... Read more >


Palenque ruins

MEXICO | Wednesday, 2 Apr 2008 | Views [423] | Comments [2]

The Palenque ruins can really be described in one word: Oh-my-goodness-wow-wow-wow! An ancient Mayan civilisation spread out over 15km² (only a small part excavated, originally spread out over nearly 130km²!), built entirely without metal tools, pack ... Read more >


San Cristobal de las Casas

MEXICO | Wednesday, 2 Apr 2008 | Views [224]

Wow. What an amazing few days. When I left you last, I was about to explore San Cristobal de las Casas. It was really a beautiful little town, albeit with temperamental weather. One minute it is sunny, shiny and sweaty hot, the next minute raining ... Read more >


Oaxaca and Tehuantepec

MEXICO | Sunday, 30 Mar 2008 | Views [284] | Comments [1]

Surprisingly, we got up okay to catch the bus (for us this was surprising, because last time we tried to get up early we had to go back to bed, but apparently we can blame this on the high elevation that Mexico City is at (2240m). Well, I can. I don’t ... Read more >


The amazing ruins at Teotihuacan

MEXICO | Sunday, 30 Mar 2008 | Views [377] | Comments [2]

Hola my little furry monkeys, It has been a while since I’ve posted, or at least it feels like a while. Snuffy and I have been quite busy travelling across Mexico and seeing stuff. Yeah, stuff. We like stuff. I took Snuffy around Mexico City, ... Read more >


Guanajuato

MEXICO | Tuesday, 25 Mar 2008 | Views [227] | Comments [3]

I’m sitting at the bus station feeling a strange mixture of excitement and sadness. I’m excited because when I get to Mexico City in several hours, I will finally get some Snuffy cuddles, of which I have been sorely deprived. Estoy un poco triste por ... Read more >


Drive back to Chihuahua

MEXICO | Saturday, 22 Mar 2008 | Views [191] | Comments [1]

Hopefully this won't be a long post!! Got up in the morning to drive back to Chihuahua with Pablo and Norma. Firstly an hour drive along bumpiness until we hit paved road. I never thought I'd be so happy to see a road!! We drove for about 3 hours until ... Read more >
