  1. México is well known for its beautiful beaches, but México is more than beaches.
    About a six months ago I visit, El Chepe, a train that goes from Los Mochis to Chihuahua. An awesome experience. Full with natural landscapes, excellent food and the best service.

    • Hola Beto.
      You are absolutely right! Mexico is so much more than just its beautiful beaches, especially its rich cultural legacy and its beautiful mountains and canyons, rainforests and marshes. It’s a big country, and there are still many incredible (and safe) places to visit.
