Oranges are Green

The first thing you would think someone would eat in Mexico would be a taco or some sort of Mexican food right? Yeah no. The first thing I ate here in Mexico was Subway. How American can you get? No worries it got better. 


Day 1 in the Apartment:
-The WHOLE Bathroom is blue, including the toilet
-Everyone is really Friendly
-People Randomly play music on the streets
-EVERYONE Honks their horn (even if its in the middle of the night) 
-Oranges are GREEN- They taste weird too...
-Mexico is cold and it rains a lot, BUT the City is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.




Friday we Finally had tacos. FINALLY. We also went to this really yummy restaurant that is supposed to feed us everyday and OH MY GOSH. They just kept bringing us out food. It was all sooo Amazing. I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD.

We also made lots of friends with people on the street.
There is this store that is just down the street from where we live and the nicest man runs it. His name is Martin. He talks to us about dancing and naming the dogs on the streets and just random things like that. There was one morning he tried to convince us that Alcohol was good for the organs and that we should go out and party. Hahaha. It was great. The people here are SO nice. :)



Then there is this lady that lives just up the street from us, her name is Berta. She can't be more than 4 feet tall, but she is seriously the sweetest lady- She is the lady on the far right in the pink sweater. She invited us into her home and told us we could come over any time we wanted. :) 




I finally got me some HORCHATA. Literally the best drink EVER. We also had these really yummy stuffed pocket things called Pastes. If Pizza Pockets were actually good then Pastes would be the Gourmet version. THEY ARE SO GOOD. I would have posted a picture of them, BUT it was literally gone in point 2. 
The food down here is seriously Amazing. I could live down here just for the food. 




This is my Humble Abode, well the outside at least. The inside is old and vintage like, and super cute. The place really is perfect, I couldn't have asked for anything better. :)






There was so many things that happened this week and it just makes me extremely excited for the future weeks to come. Monday is when the real work begins- we go to the school at 7:45 and meet all the little ninos! I'm beyond excited and can't wait. This is exactly what I've been waiting for and Tomorrow it is finally here!
