I'm off to Mexico City!

Mexico is on my bucket list, and come Memorial Day, I will be able to check it off. I'm heading to Mexico City for eight days and Monday won't come soon enough. For the first time, I haven't planned every detail and look forward to a bit of "winging it" on this trip.

Time to brush up on my Spanish

Here are a few things that I do have planned:

 -Stay above a cafe/bike organization
 -Share a meal with a local through EatWith. If you haven't heard about this new concept, check out the link to learn more - http://www.eatwith.com/ 
-Attend several Couchsurfing events
-Drink Mezcal for the first time
-Spend time in Coyoácan, where Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera lived
-See the pyramids at Teotihuacan

 

Where I will be sleeping for 7 nights!
