My first solo Odyssey was in 2007. I traveled in Mexico for 8 weeks. The year before, I went to Guadalajara to earn a Teaching Certificate to teach English as a foreign language (TEFL). I spent 5 weeks with the most amazing group of people from many parts of the world. I lived in a posada, which is a step above a hostel, but below a hotel. My posada was quite nice and became a gathering place. The program itself was good, but what made it exceptional was the way our group bonded. To this day, I am still in touch with a few from that program. Paco, was one of those people.
Paco went to teach in Campeche after the program concluded. When I became footloose in 2007, he suggested that I come to Campeche. I stayed there for a month, then traveled by bus (solo) all around the Yucatan, to Vera Cruz, Jalapa and Oaxaca. This series of posts is from that
trip.
This series was sent out as a group
email, as blogs had not been invented yet, or maybe I was just not up to the
task.
Enjoy!
