There Has Never Been a More Important Time to Travel
For the sake of my blood pressure, I needed to get out of America.
My eyes turned to Mexico. What better way to answer the hatred and vitriol directed at the country than by spending my hard-earned American green there? During my travels, I got to see a different side to our southern neighbor. Not the version from problematic Looney Tunes and MTV Spring Break, not the bullshit spewing from politicians' tongues-the real Mexico, a place where people pour you a shot at the door and feed you until you can't walk, and music and laughter fill the air until dawn.
It was just what I needed. I returned from Mexico feeling more at ease. The hospitality and joy I experienced inured me from all the nonsense waiting for me when I returned. In other words, I felt better. Isn't that what getting away is all about?
