Given that I didn’t blog on Wednesday evening, I thought that I would say a few words to those people who were thinking about taking the 3 week trip to Mexico. While I cannot speak for the actual trip, I did spend all of 2007 living in Mexico.
I would not be surprised if many of you noticed the warmth and friendliness of the teachers that visited us. Well, I just wanted to quickly attest that this warm energy was something that I found in most Mexicans that I have met. The Mexicans are an extremely welcoming people who will not hesitate to invite you for a drink, joke around and share with you their customs. I highly encourage all of you to make the trip someday to get to know our Mexican sisters and brothers.

Hi Paul,
I did notice the warmth and friendly nature of the teachers from Mexico. I also thought it was interesting that at our table they talked about the fact that we do not touch. They were speaking about the teachers they saw, didn’t hug or kiss there kids. They were saying how we (Americans) lacked affection. Interesting correlations. ~Melissa Crews Freeman
