Oaxaca second week routine

I went to the Great Botanical Garden in Oaxaca on Monday, and I had to go with a tour guide when I went in. There was a limit of 25 people per tour guide. There are all kinds of tall cacti in the botanical garden, just like in the desert. In the afternoon, I went on a city walking tour. The other tourists in the group basically arrived here on the first or second day. Although I have been to the places that the tour guide took us, I learned a lot of knowledge that I didn't know before. There are 16 aboriginal cultures in Oaxaca State, the largest ethnicity and language is called Zapotec, and the most famous president in Mexican history, Benito Juarez, is from here. The entire city of Oaxaca became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. Therefore, local social activists fought to prevent the establishment of chain fast food restaurants in the historic downtown area. No wonder they didn’t see McDonald’s or KFC. In the evening, there was another celebration parade at the gate of the cathedral.

Early on Thursday morning, I walked for half an hour to a small shop I had seen in the Street Food documentary on Netflix. This store is known as memela in the local market in the Abasto area southwest of the city center. It is said that it is best to go before 9 o'clock in the morning, otherwise there will be a lot of people queuing up, and it will close at 12 noon. The two salsa sauces here are delicious, and the black sauce is particularly spicy. You can choose the most common one with only cheese on it, or add a spread of eggs, or add meat (big ribs or beef slices), it is really delicious. In the big market, I also bought yellow watermelons to try at home.

The Abasto district feels very different from the city center. There are only locals and no tourists are seen, so the prices are much lower. Everything is sold in the big market, and I also saw a person using a large machine for grinding cocoa beans to make chocolate. I met an Argentinian girl my age on a couchsurfing app on Tuesday. Six years ago, she bought a small car with her ex-husband and daughter, and drove all the way from Argentina to Mexico. On the way, she lived in many countries in South America and Central America. During the epidemic, she drove to Mexico. Due to various reasons, she was separated from her ex-husband and daughter. Mexico City, but she herself continues to travel throughout Mexico and has been here for three years now. During her sojourn, she sold the handicrafts she wove, the photos she took as postcards, and worked as a temporary worker. Now she is working in a youth hostel and learning English at the same time. When we met again on Thursday, we made an appointment on the rooftop of her youth hostel, chatted for a while, and then went to another small street stall not far from her youth hostel to try pierazo, which was also watched from the Street Food documentary on Netflix arrived. This is not a snack that you can often see in the city center, so let's try it out. pierazo puts baked hard bread in a small plastic bag, with onions pickled in vinegar, salt, chili powder, pickled cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and sprinkled with cheese. It sounds strange, but the taste is indeed different from most Mexican street food, especially sour. The Argentine girl stopped eating after taking two bites, and based on the principle of not wasting food, I wiped out the rest. I'm still here to taste a drink I've never had before, agua de chilacayota, which is made from a white fruit, but I don't know the Chinese and English names.

A three-day bread fair started near my home on Friday. There are various famous local bakeries participating in the exhibition. You can taste many different breads for free, and you will be half full after walking around. In the afternoon, the Argentine girl took me to a climbing activity organized by a hiking group. There are some locals in the hiking group, and there are also many foreigners who have lived here for a long time. I thought it was just going to the open-air auditorium of Cerro del Fortín, which I went to last time, but I walked through the auditorium and continued to climb up the mountain for a long time. When I reached the top, I could just see the sunset, which was beautiful.

Monte Albán, another UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a half-hour drive from downtown Oaxaca. A few days ago, I released this plan on the sofa guest software to see if there is anyone who can go with me. It was finally decided to go to a girl from Bogota, Colombia. She also brought her French cousin and her cousin's boyfriend. This Colombian girl is a civil engineer, and she took a two-month leave to travel and meet her French cousin in Mexico. They will take the night train to San Cristóbal, the city where I stayed for two months, and I will share with them some fun and delicious places.

A few days ago, after posting and organizing a visit to the historical site on Sofasurf, a Chinese girl sent me a message to contact me. She couldn’t participate in the activity because she had to take a Spanish class, but she asked me to come out and meet on the weekend. In Latin America, it is rare to meet a Chinese who has lived for a long time. Thinking about it, he must be an interesting person. Sure enough, like the Shushu sister I met in the Costa Rica youth hostel, she is also an atypical Chinese girl with a story. On Saturday morning, we made an appointment to see an outdoor folk song and dance celebration performance, and we will meet at the door of the cafe across the street. From afar, I saw a girl sitting across the street from a cafe, but I glanced at it and saw that she was dressed in local Mexican clothes and had dark skin. I didn't expect it to be her at all. The two of us walked through the crowd watching the performance, and sat down on the shaded steps farther away from the wall, which is quieter and suitable for chatting.

This girl is from Tianjin, less than 30. When I was in college in Shanghai, I organized a mountaineering outdoor club, met many interesting people, and opened my own small travel agency. Just after graduating, I applied for a working holiday visa and went to Australia for a year. I worked as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant, in sales, and at the front desk of a hotel. After returning to China, I applied to be an au pair in the United States. I lived in a local host family, helped take care of the children, provided food and housing, and received basic living expenses. Because my boyfriend was in Miami and had visa issues, I started renting a house in Mexico City at the end of last year, running between Mexico City and Miami. I also traveled a lot while in Mexico. She is now a purchasing agent on the Internet, and she still has investment in the country, and she is basically financially free. She has played muay thai for several years, and also loves to travel, having been to more than 30 countries. Talking about travel, we can see mutual friends on the sofa-surfing software. It is a special coincidence that we have two common sofa owners, one is the wonderful sofa owner in Singapore, and the other is the one in Portland, Oregon, USA sofa master. It's such a small world, considering how many nights we've spent in the same bed in the same room.

This girl's Google map is the same as mine, and all kinds of local delicious and fun places are marked on it. After sitting on the steps and chatting for more than two hours, she took me to a restaurant with a roof terrace on a nearby mountain. The view was particularly good, and I drank coffee. Then we went to eat Japanese ramen together, and then visited several art galleries on the street. Because this girl loves to take pictures, there are very few people who can take a few street shots for me. I spent the whole afternoon pressing the road, chatting while walking. I went to the local market to eat at night, and she wanted to eat chicken feet. Her local friend told him that a stall sold chicken feet, which were not on the menu, and only sold to locals. On my way home, I passed by another street stall introduced in the Street Food documentary on Netflix. I ate empanada and quesadilla, which tasted good.
