Welcome to the first ever edition of Sunday Snaps! This is how I’ll be checking in every week to let you guys know what I’m up to and share 5 of my best pics from the last 7 days.

This week, my first as an official full-time traveler, has been pretty surprising. Mexico City has shattered all of my expectations and concerns, and I am actually a bit sad to be leaving it behind tomorrow! It’s a fantastic city and I can’t wait to show you all the awesome stuff it has to offer.

Yesterday I met up with the tour group that I’ll be traveling with for the next two weeks through Mexico. Next stop is Puebla tomorrow, then Oaxaca and San Cristobal de las Casas. I’m looking forward to getting to know all the great people in this group over cervezas and mezcal!

Have a great week!

The boats of Xochimilco.
