Mexico it’s the one of the more interesting places to travel in the world.  There’s a process of cultural hybridization, very important between natives and colonial Spanish influences and affect to this days. Their capital:  Mexico’s city, it’s the capital and lives over eight millions of people. I knew Mexico’s city for the Chilean-Mexico writer Roberto Bolaño. He wrote a book called: The savages’ detectives. In this book, he told his teenager experience been a foreign teenager and the history of his poetical friends, especially of his best friend: The poet Mario Santiago Papasquiaro (in the book called Ulises Lima), It’s the history of a group of a young men’s in seventies, but also the history of an entire generation, who grow past the world war two but lived the Latin-Americans dictatorships. In the book they spent a lot of time in the Bucarelli Avenue, they go to theirs coffees shop and spent a lot of time, doing plans to destroy the poetical empire of Octavio Paz. I know the Bucarelli Avenue, it’s not the same Bucarelli Avenue of Roberto Bolaño, but I think the spirit stay.

The other place I like to know and live for a while, it’s the territory of Chiapas, especially the Zapatistas communities. Because I think the process leadership by Subcomandante Marcos, it’s one of the few processes in the world who can combat the unconditional advance of capitalism, and return the territories and dignity of natives.

In the festive part, I love the spicy food, so I have to go eat chili peppers, enchiladas, tacos and Tortas de jamon, like said Chavo del ocho and of course, drink Tequila and mescal, because the plant of agave only grow in Mexico.
