...and now for some shameless self-promotion...

I actually shot a little video today in the food market I like to go to. It's 37 seconds long but it has some cool goodies!
Please take a minute to subscribe/like my facebook page, as it seems to be the only medium where low-quality videos (need to be small!) can be posted without looking out of place!

Departing tomorrow for Chiapas and Yucatán!!!

Thumbs up Living The Life

Indeed ~

Anyone can , it's vastly easier when you're Young though .

I had much fun and barely escaped Guatemala alive , my Son was conceived there and I'd love to go back and visit , the Ex's Family is always asking me and SWMBO to come and visit....

Ride safely Miguel , Road Warrior you are .

I am currently writing from a hostel from the overly humid town of Cancún. Today concludes my visit to the Yucatán Peninsula, so I will start writing an article very soon on that. However, for now, I shall narrate the events as they happened on my departure from my two-month work experience in Oaxaca. The trip is alive and well, folks!

Aaaaah, I know... but seldom it is the chance to be energized enough to write –the climate is killing me, but I am getting used to it–, have a reliable internet connection and not have my hands dirty because of some amateur archaeologist role-playing.

Don't be like Indiana Jones and have the natives chase after you with poison tipped arrows.

"Current location: Habana, Cuba.?" I thought you were still in Mexico. Or is this just wishful thinking?

Amazing!

There was a Facebook post a few days ago from Cuba. I hope he can find that gullwing.

Found it today! I will return to Cancún on the 30th, so I will have fast internet then. I do have a TON of pictures, but this connection can barely handle anything. Peachparts itself loads at Benzworld speed!

Any progress here I will only post on the facebook page at www.facebook.com/thiseuropeanlife
