Mexico Travel

Tu dici California e pensi al Golden Gate di San Francisco, alle spiagge sabbiose di Malibu, agli studi cinematografici di Hollywood. E invece, appena più giù, c'è un'altra California, che a metà Ottocento seppe resistere all'avanzata delle truppe statunitensi e conservare la propria integrità e indipendenza. È la Baja California, la California messicana: la più lunga penisola del mondo, quasi duemila chilometri conficcati nel cuore dell'Oceano Pacifico. Pino Cacucci è ritornato nel "suo" Messico per attraversarla e per raccontarla, da sud a nord, da La Paz alla frontiera di Tijuana.

Il Messico è il paese dei contrasti estremi. E all'estremo di tutto, c'è Mahahual: dove finisce la penisola dello Yucatán, sorge questo paesino di mille abitanti, a pochi chilometri dalla frontiera con il Belize. Angolo di paradiso tra palme e mangrovie, di fronte ha la barriera corallina seconda al mondo per estensione, il Mar dei Caraibi e lo scorrere lento del tempo: siamo nello stato del Quintana Roo, che a nord vanta la celebre Cancún, mentre qui c'è l'opposto assoluto, non solo geografico, perché a Mahahual il cemento non ha ancora invaso la vista.

Run Barefoot on Cactus is a raw, never-too-late, true adventure. It's a memoir of a woman's quest for love, life, freedom from a tainted past, and a wild romp into the questionable paradise of Lower Baja, Mexico. This is not your grandma's memoirs. You won't find home-baked cookies and a glass of warm milk in this audiobook, but you will find rugged truth that might surprise you. I know the story is true because I lived it.

Eat Like a Local - Mexico, by author Paulina Armendáriz, wants you to skip the tacos (sort of) and try some different local Mexican food.

Most food guides tell you how to eat like a tourist. Although there is nothing wrong with that, as part of the Eat Like a Local series, this book will give you a food guide from someone who has lived at your next culinary destination.

In The Search for the Codex Cardona, Arnold J. Bauer tells the story of his experiences on the trail of a cultural treasure, a Mexican “painted book” that first came into public view at Sotheby’s auction house in London in 1982, nearly 400 years after it was presumably made by Mexican artists and scribes. On folios of amate paper, the Codex includes two oversized maps and 300 painted illustrations accompanied by text in 16-century paleography.

Golf resorts - it's a specialized niche for a savvy group that knows what it wants. What they want is golf, so the Nicols have devoted the audio to yardage and par, green fees, and special course features for hundreds of golf courses from Canada to Costa Rica. But there are other facets to consider as well, because the point here is to take a vacation, a golf vacation, where you get to luxuriate in your scenic vistas, eat your sumptuous meals, and play your 18 holes, too.

Donald and Teresa Yates spent a month in Yucatan in 2007. This day-by-day account of their travels there is the result. From Ek Balam, the country's "newest ruin", where their guide is the grandson of one of the "knowledge people" who once ruled it, to Mayapan, the last Mayan city to be abandoned, inhabited now only by the howler monkeys that were the patron gods of its poet kings, they give us their impressions and present their favorite images of a culture that is very much alive if you know where to look and the right questions to ask.
