Visiting with Mari.

I am making a special post for meeting with Maricela. I first met Maricela in 2006 when I was studying at UNAM in Mexico City. We took a class together on Labor Migration and she was easily one of the friendliest people I have met not only in my class but also in Mexico. Once you spend a little time with Mari, as I like to call her, then you will realize that she is one of the most joyful people in the world. She finds the joy in the smallest things and it begins to rub off on you. She always is carrying a smile and happiness flows through her. Anyway, Mari only thought it would be right for me to pay a visit to her family after all of these years....and so I did, and I don't regret it. It was fun to hang out with her beautiful family and talk about life, social issues, politics, etc. These are some pictures from when I went to visit and eat dinner at Mari's home, just right outside of the city lines (literally, like a few blocks away begins Mexico City.) Oh yeah, her mom cooks hella bomb food...
