On our way to Chiapas we stopped at another restaurand on the side of the road. While our lunch was being preprared, I decided to inspect the bike and Laura was helping me. At one moment, a guy with a pick-up truck stopped and began talking to a man who was probably the owner of the place. Then Laura made me aware that, for some reason, the word “coca” kept repeating in their conversation… As I was lubricating the chain, the discussion reached such topics as “dineros” and “los hombres que no respectan la convencia” (money and the people who do not respect the deal). We agreed not to talk Spanish anymore, or else we could be placing ourselves at risk of being eliminated for the reason of knowing too much…
The restaurant and the people who don’t respect the deal
Oaxaca
Oaxaca is the next state we crossed. We enjoyed the remote beaches, something I have not seen since I visited Grindul Chituc, in Romania, some 3-4 years ago.
Acapulco de Juárez, Guerrero
After ~400km on a very EXPENSIVE freeway and a night of camping in the wild, we finally got to the beach again. This time in Acapulco. Probably the best way to see the resort is from a boat, so we rented a ski-jet for a fraction of the price we would have spent in Romania for the same thing.
Xocimilco
Xocimilco is a community nearby Mexico City that is famous for it’s network of canals. Being on the UNESCO list, it was also on our list. Besides the boats for turists, there are also some boats that act as bars/restaurants or for transportation of the locals.

The second day in Mexico City; Tudor
I was happy to see Tudor (and his girlfriend) during our second day in the center. Last time we saw each other it was 2-3 years ago, in Cismigiu, Bucharest. He moved here a while ago. He showed us some places and we eat some pozole. Delicious! Before we left, we met Giancarlo, a local guy who recently returned from a motorcycle adventure in South America. This was a good opportunity to find some answers.
