As my regular readers may have noticed, the blog posts of late have been few and far between. I must admit, I’ve found it really difficult to motivate writing about Oaxaca while I’m having to spend so much time in El Norte — though, goodness knows, photos and topics are definitely not in short supply. However, I guess anticipating my upcoming return to Oaxaca has prompted me to appreciate both here and there and provided the spark I needed to sit down and create this blog post.
