Why Mexico ?
|
The
pretext of my trip in September 2002, was to visit to a " Indian
of the Alps ", living for 5 years in Mexico.
Before finding him with his small family, in the jungle lining the
pacifc coast, I just made a small bend to discover the South of
the country.
In this time, while the world of the stock exchange underwent a
ridiculous storm, the hurricane Isidore provoked grave damages in
Yucatán.
In spite of being going full swing rainy season, the always long-lived
sun, illuminated the green nature.
In the
final, this brief but captivating Mexican visit will remain for me
a tremendous introduction in the american continent .
