    • A love letter to San Cris 💛 I moved to southern Mexico 2 months ago— to a town that held a lot of specific pain for me— feeling just about as broken as I’ve ever felt & so far from myself that I feared I wouldn’t be able to find my way back. But somehow, I did. Wandering these cobbled streets, reading in my sunny garden, dancing around the kitchen to loud music (& sometimes crying even louder), waking up in a place that’s become completely my own, I’ve felt things inside of me start to bloom again. Inspiration, creativity, passion, purpose. I spent more time truly alone in the last couple months than I ever have, going days on end without anyone’s company but my own— and I’ve started to reconnect with myself, to sift through all the feelings that were too big & too messy to grapple with while I was rushing around the world, to unearth pieces of me that I buried over the years just trying to survive bad situations. And I’ve learned to love those parts of me again. To find light in my shadows, peace in my pain, poetry in my rough edges. I’m moving out of my apartment in a week and there’s part of me that’s honestly scared to start travelling again, to allow other people into my days & into my life after carefully curating such a peaceful & solitary existence here in San Cris. But I also know I’m not the same girl I was when I came here. And I can’t be only me when I’m with me. I think it’s time to find my way back into the world again, into the chaos of new places & faces & challenges. But I will always, always be grateful for the place that taught me how to breathe again, showed me a path back to myself, and reminded me that I am so much greater than the things that happened to me. Te amo, San Cris 💛

    • I guess it was that Mexico MAGIC ✨ . . . . . . . . . #sancris #sancristobaldelascasaschiapas #sancristobal #chiapas #chiapasiónate #chiapasionate #chiapasmagico #chiapasmexico #méxico #vivamexico #mexicolindo #mexicotravel #mexicodesconocido #mexicomagico
    • LA CALAVERA CATRINA 💀👒💐 One of the best ways to get into Día de Muertos is to dress up in elaborate costumes— none more iconic than La Calavera Catrina, the elegant skull 💃🏻 The skull makeup so closely associated with Day of the Dead actually relates to a painting by Jose Guadalupe Posada more than a hundred years ago, later honoured (& largely popularised) in a mural by Diego Rivera. Depicting a well-dressed woman as a skeleton, the artwork was intended as a commentary on how death is the one common thread between the rich & poor, and regardless of material wealth, we are all skeletons in the end. This is the most popular costume for Día de Muertos and you can find stalls all over the city centre painting a million creative versions of La Catrina-- I paid 150p ($8) for makeup + 100p ($5) for my marigold crown. Another beautiful thing about this country— love & respect for its traditions are almost always enough to earn you an honorary seat at the table. Even foreigners are encouraged to dress up & paint their faces, often pulled close to celebrate with local families. It’s hard to remain a stranger in Mexico ❤️🇲🇽 . . . . . #diademuertos #díademuertos #felizdiademuertos #comparsas #lacatrina #oaxaca #oaxacabonito #etlaoaxaca #panteón #dayofthedead #méxico #vivamexico #mexicolindo #mexicotravel #mexicodesconocido

It’s hard to remain a stranger in Mexico ❤️🇲🇽 . . . . . #diademuertos #díademuertos #felizdiademuertos #comparsas #lacatrina #oaxaca #oaxacabonito #etlaoaxaca #panteón #dayofthedead #méxico #vivamexico #mexicolindo #mexicotravel #mexicodesconocido
    LA CALAVERA CATRINA 💀👒💐 One of the best ways to get into Día de Muertos is to dress up in elaborate costumes— none more iconic than La Calavera Catrina, the elegant skull 💃🏻 The skull makeup so closely associated with Day of the Dead actually relates to a painting by Jose Guadalupe Posada more than a hundred years ago, later honoured (& largely popularised) in a mural by Diego Rivera. Depicting a well-dressed woman as a skeleton, the artwork was intended as a commentary on how death is the one common thread between the rich & poor, and regardless of material wealth, we are all skeletons in the end. This is the most popular costume for Día de Muertos and you can find stalls all over the city centre painting a million creative versions of La Catrina-- I paid 150p ($8) for makeup + 100p ($5) for my marigold crown. Another beautiful thing about this country— love & respect for its traditions are almost always enough to earn you an honorary seat at the table. Even foreigners are encouraged to dress up & paint their faces, often pulled close to celebrate with local families.
