Thursday was the day I got to test the waters of being a substitute teacher as one of the teachers at the school had called in sick. I was asked to step in and teach two back-to-back classes consisting of students with a good enough grasp of English that I wouldn’t have to exercise my […]
We came across an opportunity through Workaway to help English learners practice and improve their oral skills at The English School. We were contacted by the owner of the school, Ivan, and in exchange for our help, he arranged for us to receive food and hosting at the home of a local family. This was the […]
Thursday was another rainy day in Morelia so we stayed in our room for most of it and worked, with only a short break for lunch at the plaza we had frequented on the days prior. We went for a stroll in the evening and stumbled upon a restaurant called Onix. We decided to have […]

After breakfast on our first morning, we stayed in our room to do some work. We have been doing that quite a lot recently, since we both had quit our full-time salaried jobs before hitting the road and would like to dip into our savings as little as possible. That’s why we have come up […]
We had a later departure than usual from Guadalajara since we didn’t have a very long road ahead of us for the day. After breakfast at Starbucks and a three-hour ride, we arrived in Morelia. We stayed at the Hotel Casa José María, which set us back 650 pesos (~45 CAD). The hotel was clean, […]

Our third day in Guadalajara was a low-key one with most of the day spent in our room for remote work and blogging. We did take a lunch break and decided to get some Indian food at Goa, a restaurant that was quite close to our hotel. The food was not as spicy as we […]
After a short 2.5-hour ride from Aguascalientes, we arrived in Guadalajara in the early afternoon. We stayed at the Expo Inn, which cost us 530 pesos (~37 CAD) for what was one of the cleanest rooms we have had so far. The room had all the amenities we could hope for, WiFi that was good […]
After two days in Durango, we headed towards Aguascalientes on Thursday morning. The ride was a bit longer than usual at 4.5 hours and our arrival into the city was a rainy one. We stayed at the Hotel Real Plaza, which cost us 720 pesos (~50 CAD) for a room on the 10th floor. Another […]
