What I love about Mexico

Marina Real I love tacos and Takis  (spicy rolled up chips). People are always smiling and happy; they seem fearless and kind here in Mexico. Peoples attitudes are different.  There are very beautiful sunsets. I like swimming in the ocean and the pool, I really love snorkeling. I can't wait to see dolphins and whale sharks.

Sonoran sunset No filter, just pure beauty!
