Unexpectedly Enchanting Mexico

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it’s not always love at first sight. For me, it wasn’t.  In fact, I’d sort of dismissed Mexico as a desirable travel destination for most of my life. I mean, I guess I like the beach as much as the next guy, but if I’m going to rough it in Latin America, then why not go somewhere more exotic, more beautiful, somewhere less… boring? I like history and culture and gourmet food. After all, isn’t the beach pretty much all Mexico has to offer?
