Last week, I was talking with one of my work mates here in AIESEC, strangely I got a little bit nostalgic, I was remembering or thinking about all the things that I will miss from Mexico city.
When I used to come for vacations to Mexico City everything used to be fun, new, exciting, fashion, dark, interesting; that was the time when I started to think about in moving to the city and work or study here for a period of time, not realizing all the things that this city can offer to you. It´s all about living in one of the top 10 biggest cities of the world and the biggest city of North-America
The year passed, and one year and a half I got selected for being part of a team and work here in Mexico city in an office as a graduate and professional person, working for an organization that leads more than 700 people here in Mexico. I arrive here the last week of June of 2009, with a lot of expectatives, fears, dreams, goals... So that´s when my experience started.
Living and moving around Mexico city, it´s not so easy but it´s cheap, you can move through the metro, taxi or metrobus that are cheap for some people´s pockets but you can catch them in very crowd hours and can be a mess!!! I will remember how much I enjoyed taking metrobus not in crowed hours and pass all Insurgentes Avenue, the trees, the cars;
About some places in general, see the sunlight in Coyoacan, with all the trees like a wood, the fog during winter time, going through the downtown and all the old building full of history and memories, walking in La Condesa and La Roma, full of fashion, strange, funny, interesting places and shops, every part of all of this have something to remembers, and for sure I will miss it.
Living in a city of this size give you the chance to have a list of possibilities and things to do during the week and the weekend that never ends.
Now that is time to move on again, I´m trying to recapture all the feelings, mental pictures, sounds, smells, to keep it to me and when I feel kind of bored sometimes, they will just come in my mind.
And now I will start making the list of the things in spanish
- Los molletes de Frutos Prohibidos
- Comer esquites afuera del Superama de Michoacán
- Comer tamales rosas :P
- Andar en Metrobus cuando estaba solo
- Usar el taxi y que costara barato
- Ir a Coyoacán
- Ir al Parque México a bailar los domingos
- Ir al Superama de Michoacán solo a dar la vuelta al super
- Poder salir a las 2am y caminar por el parque
y mucha muchas cosas mas... you can name it if you want
