I would love to be your host during this experience, and my goal will be that you will end up so fascinated about Mexico and our food and culture that before leaving you will start thinking about when will you be coming back!

About me! I worked on the hospitality industry for over 20 years, so making people feel welcome is my mojo. Tell me what you would like to experience in the city, and I will do everything in my power to make it happen. Apart from being a passionate host, at the moment I'm studying a master degree, so don't worry, time for concentration and work will be one of our main targets.

Details about the accommodation: The accommodation will be in shared rooms, or if you require a single bedroom it can be arranged, keep in mind that an extra fee will be required. Because I know that working from home is sometimes very stressful, I will pamper you as much as I can. So Breakfast will be included, and as my mother used to say, you can't start with the right foot if you don't have a proper Mexican breakfast, so forget about bread and coffee and embrace yourself!! I know that because of time difference, schedules can be very difficult, so also, I can provide a homemade Mexican lunch, so you will not have to worry about cooking etc. Do you have questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section here! See you soon in Mexico!

Zócalo

Day 15
The Zócalo (officially known as the Plaza de la Constitución) in Mexico City is a historic and bustling square that holds a significant place in the city's culture and history. Here are three highlights you should definitely explore when visiting the Zócalo: Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana): One of the most prominent landmarks on the Zócalo is the Metropolitan Cathedral. This awe-inspiring cathedral is one of the largest and oldest in the Americas, and its construction spans centuries, reflecting various architectural styles from Baroque to Neoclassical. Inside, you'll find intricate chapels, stunning religious artwork, and relics of historical and cultural significance. Climbing the bell towers offers panoramic views of the Zócalo and the surrounding area. National Palace (Palacio Nacional): Adjacent to the Metropolitan Cathedral, the National Palace is an imposing building with a fascinating history. It's the official residence of the President of Mexico and also houses important government offices. One of the major draws for visitors is Diego Rivera's monumental murals that adorn the interior walls of the palace. These murals depict Mexico's history, from pre-Columbian times to the Mexican Revolution. The murals provide a vivid visual narrative of Mexico's cultural heritage and struggles. Templo Mayor Archaeological Site: Just steps away from the Zócalo, the Templo Mayor Archaeological Site offers a glimpse into the ancient Aztec capital of Tenochtitlán, which was situated on the same grounds that Mexico City now occupies. The site was discovered in the 1970s and continues to reveal more about the Aztec civilization. You can explore the remains of the Templo Mayor pyramid, sculptures, and other artifacts that provide insights into Aztec religious and cultural practices. The adjacent museum provides further context and historical information. While these are just a few highlights, the Zócalo itself is an attraction, often bustling with cultural events, vendors, and local festivities. Its central location makes it an excellent starting point for exploring the historic center of Mexico City and its rich cultural heritage.
