Mexico, Part 1

My sister Emily lives in Mexico City. She moved there six months ago with her boyfriend who is from there. I visited her there for the past two weeks; exploring her new home and culture. Most of my time was spent in the City - in the area called San Mateo where they live, in Santa Fe where they work and along Paseo de la Reforma. The city is bustling with energy and enough cars to take anyone wherever they dream. You risk your life every time you cross the street because stoplights are irrelevant and crosswalks are not apparent. It is a challenge to live there but I can see why she chose it.

I left my digital camera at home for this trip and instead opted to take three different film cameras. It was fun to shoot as I used to and I have been eagerly waiting for the film to develop in order to see what came from my clicking shutter. Of course, I took a ton of photos so bear with me as I narrow it down to post an appropriate number here. For the first batch, here are some photos from around Emily's home in San Mateo.
