First Impressions - Mexico City

I snapped this photo shortly after getting off the metro and walking 6 blocks in the wrong direction in search of my Airbnb (note to self: house numbers come AFTER the street name in Mexico). My first impressions of Mexico City haven't really exceeded my expectations. It's exactly what I thought it would be; it's a huge thriving city with equal parts grit and color. Although it took  a minute until someone finally let me get in their cab, the people here are relatively friendly and helpful.  

Stay tuned for more thoughts on Mexico City.
