brief trip through mexico

---

After the trip back from Mbeya, I had one day to take a shower, say goodbye, went to my roomates mom's house which has a nice garden i wish i had known about and where her mom made me my last plate of peas and rice, and had a last dinner at angiti, a nice indian place where i filled up on delicious paneer before the midnight flight. the last tanzanian i spoke to was a rasta guy who was exactly like all the rest-clever and sneaky-always being mjanjamjanja, and he gave me a light up red heart pen that i then gave to someone else-maybe the man i went into amsterdam with or maybe a stranger-i dont remember.
had a little christmas shot---
these were the things on my mind:
quiet cars, smooth highways,
unknowingly patronizing, but good willed people
expensive lattes--the ethics of drinking one
cheese and salad
then had a shot of mexico:
went to tepoztlan where chris and i worked at tashirat just a year and a half ago
though when i saw it again it felt much longer
we stayed in a fancy house with a fancy house-staff and swam in the pool but it was incredibly lovely
went hiking in the mountains to a pyramid
amazing sights in mexico city-city of festivities
more later
