Mexico, the South

"
Who inhaled the dust of the roads of Mexico,
will find any more the peace in no other country."


Malcom Lowry




Yucatán

 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 .
