This blog was created by me, a lover of Mexico, to share interesting facts about Mexico as I travel there, or as I struggle to learn the language, or as I am amazed by the food, the culture or the art.

Mercado San Juan
Here are photos of some of the seafood found in Mercado San Juan in the center of Mexico City. The goose barnacles took me back to my days at Everest Restaurant where these were served steamed. The cross-section of ahi tuna looks like a face, doesn't it?. A happy cat in a fish market? The vendor told me that the orange fish was a blowfish but I have my doubts. It was some type of fish that used air to raise and lower itself.Finally dorado, also known as mahi mahi, isverycolorful.
I have a serious desire to live in a second language. Specifically, to live in Mexico using Spanish to communicate. My passion is learning Spanish so that I can handle day-to-day activities and converse with anyone.
