Lightness of being

I was born in a small village of a mountainous Kyrgyzstan. In October 2010 the biggest dream of mine came true; I visited one of the most amazing countries – Mexico. It was the very first time I crossed the borders of my country. The road from Bishkek to Guadalajara took only one day, and a dream about such kind of trip lasted for twenty years.
Mexico is on the other side of the planet and everything was so different and similar at the same time compared to my country: people, landscape, food. During the trip I visited Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta. Guadalajara amazed me with chilled atmosphere. When you ask people of how many minutes it will take to get to the shopping mall, most probably you will hear 10 minutes. Get prepared to walk 2 hours by foot.
In Puerto Vallarta I swam in Pacific Ocean when I didn’t really know how to swim, went to Rock café and drank 2 liters of lemonade in 15 minutes. A friend of mine lost her passport and we had to give testimony to the police to departure her back home. I felt like a movie protagonist. After this experience I am ready to explore Europe.
