Black Princess - Megan E

Megan E Well, I can say that i've traveled. Been to Europe, spent some time in Mexico, and now i'm getting ready for an "extended stay." I'll spend 4 months of my life living, eating, breathing mexican culture in Guanajuato, Mexico. This blog is a continuation of what I wrote during my stay in Cuernavaca, Mexico in Jan. of 2007. Just getting it fresh!

Well this is obviously my new trend to be delayed on my blog. So let me see…. I’ve covered Mexico City. Well after Mexico City just another passing week accept for one big thing. We had a big 80s party. It was great tons of people came and everybody dressed up. As seen in the picture we did 80s with a nice twist!! School thus far has been going well, the work is picking up but the learning/teaching style here is very different then that at school. The change is nice. My Spanish is improving, but I still get nervous [View Full Entry]

Mexico City Mexico City was an amazing trip. I know it has been about 2 weeks since I’ve gone but yes again I was very busy with Life. In Mexico City we got to see alot of history. Right back to the ruins of the Mesoamericans. They didn’t give us a break. From the time we arrived we began our tour of the City, starting with the Nacional Catedral. The Catedral was actually right in front of our hostal (Yes Mom I stayed in a hostal). It was one on of the biggest and prettiest Cathedrals I have seen. After seeing [View Full Entry]

Well.... I want to give everybody a little bit more information on GTO and then I'll blog about my weekend in Mexico City. Guanajuato, GTO is a SMALL town. I would have to compare it to a Moonville or Tryon in size. There are no stoplights, and the town was built before there were cars so there are now these crazy tunnels where they use to mine that cars now travel though. It is the only place in Mexico with tunnels like that. We walk just about everywhere and if it is dark or we are lazy we will travel by [View Full Entry]

Wow, it has been way to long…and I apologize I promise to do better lol. I do want to open this with the mere fact that who ever said Study abroad was easy never studied abroad. Something about living life in a different country and doing all different things with new people, new classes, new FOOD, new places…etc, makes everyday a challenge. Life in Mexico is so busy I can’t hardly keep up. There is always something to do or watch or celebrate. Speaking of celebrate let me go all the way back to my birthday. My birthday was great. It [View Full Entry]

Here is a map of the state of Guanajuato. I will be staying the capital city!!
Well as the title says....it is getting to be about that time again for me to start my travels. This is a big one for me. On August 23rd ( 2 months from this past Saturday) I will be boarding a plane to head back to Mexico, Guanajuato to be exact. I was nervous about Cuernavaca, but I am 100 times more nervous about this trip. No travel partner, just me, leaving my family, friends, and well my life for 4 months to do something I've never done and no one in my family has ever done. I'll be staying [View Full Entry]

My time here is almost up and I can not eve believe it. I´ve done so much and well i have the receipts to prove that lol. This past weekend we ventured out of our comfort zone (or at least we thought until we arrived) and travelled to Acapulco. Once we arrived we realized it waslike being in America all over again. There was an Applébees, Walmart (of course), Hooters, Hard Rock Cafe and many other familar places. The weather was amazing the hotel was great, and I just can´t find anything to complain about. It was so nice, Nicky and [View Full Entry]
