DIFFERENCE IN MEXICO..

So to begin .. the planeflight to mexico was not all that bad didnt miss my flight and i actually slept most of the way here.. well lets say cried myself to sleep since my good friends and family gave me notes to read on the plane .. wow all im saying .. the person next to me mustve thought i was retarded. Making my connecting flight in Detriot was not all that hard .. suprsingly easy but very different travelling alone let me tell you .. that flight was worse .. soo much turbulance (cant spell) .. thought the plane was going to crash .. went through a thunderstorm to get to Mexico City ... which apparently is always cold and rainy somewhat .. yepp . so when i arrive i had no idea what to do so i followed the crowd and after about 30mintues of confusion (just a glimpse of what its like to understand nothing) i got my luggage .. Now I was scared for my life in Mexico City .. since well yeah . self explanitory .. A cop approached me and asked for my ID (he thought I was stealing luggage hahahahahha .. o boy) so after that was cleared up i had to press a random button and i got red (they searched my luggage). By now I for sure thought I was going to get tackled to the ground of attempted terriorism or something who knows lmao .. just scared but eventually I met up with my host family and everything was fine.

As soon as I arrived they took me on a tour or Mexico City which is beautiful .The following 6 days were spent on vacation to Guanjunato, Leon and some other small city .. wow is all i have to say .. A small family gathering in Mexico consists of alot of people . well the one i went to did .. god. And you greet everyone with a kiss on their cheek. Oh and my first day here it really sucks when you take a shower and the water stops .. LMAO my very first day i was like uhh .. and tried washed my hair in the sink .. but that had no water so basically i had nice soapy hair .. little did i no that you have a switch within the house where you flick it on and water goes to the roof (where its stored) .. my family laughed at me forever ..oh and the whisteling .. holy shit .. everywhere in mexico .. whistle whistle .. its annoying and other times its pretty creepy .. older men EW. just wrong .. apparently its because im blonde here .. yep blonde i tried to argue and say brunette (caffe) but i was proven wrong ..

And I no your all curious about the food, and if not you should be because its the best food ive EVER tasted .. Taco Bell and all that fake mexican stuff doesnt even compare to mexican food .. its amazing .. it may not look to good but it tastes like heaven .. so different here .. and their drinks .. very different .. this one is called water .. well agua in spanish. but it looks like milk .. it has rice .. cinnamon .. horchata (not sure what that is haha .. but i learned my lesson to not ask what i eat :S) .. wow ! and here corn is very different . they put cheese . hot sauce of course. and mayo .. try it .. pretty good ! so basically the reason why i dont ask what i eat anymore is because afew days ago when we vacationed to a spot near Real De Monte (in the mountains) i had this type of food called a cuerito .. looks interesting .. basically i thought this one toping was onions .. but it tasted different so i asked my sister Ana (LOVE HER but shes leaving to belgium soon:( ) what it was .. after a bit of trying to figure out my question she told me it was the skin of pork .. i no this doesnt sound groose but if you saw it .. youd feel the same way .. haha .

Oh and finally .. the language barrier . AHHHHHHHHHHHH ..
ive never felt more confused in my entire life . people looking at me like im some kind of mental person .. i get that alot in canada but its different here .. my good friends understand lol ! trying to explain something to my host family takes a good hour for them to understand just a part of what i mean .. then they repeat it to themselves and start to laugh .. haha yep . its intersting .. people trying to talk to me in spanish and yeah you get the picture .
