I arrived in Mexico City at noon on Sunday and went to dinner with local friends. Passing by Chinatown, it happened to be the Spring Festival, and the whole street was overcrowded, and I couldn't walk. Mexico City is such an international metropolis at any rate, it doesn't matter that there is not even a decent celebration of the Spring Festival, and the few restaurants in Chinatown look authentic, it doesn't matter. But there is one thing...

San Miguel de Allende, Querétaro
I took a ride to San Miguel de Allende on Friday, and it took an hour and a half on the road. The driver brother drove there to work every day. It took three hours to go back and forth on the road every day. The fuel cost was not cheap, so I always used the ride-hailing software to pick up and drop off passengers.

A cold snap started on Christmas Day, with light rain and cooling. My house has plenty of sunlight during the day and it’s not cold at night, but the landlord’s eldest sister’s son’s room is on the shady side, and it’s cold even during the day, so he moved to another room next to me on the sunny side. Play games in the next room. The name of the small restaurant downstairs rehile...

When I first came to Oaxaca at the end of October, my couch owner who was an acupuncture therapist mentioned to me that on December 17th an ayahuasca ceremony would be held in his clinic. I just listened to it at the time, because firstly, I was not sure whether I would stay in this city until mid-December, and secondly, I knew about the ayahuasca ceremony...
