my brain is fried but this place is weirdly okay (mexican bajío vibes)

so i'm sitting here staring at this damp pavement and trying to remember if i actually locked my gear in the hotel room. the air is that weird, heavy sort of cool that makes you regret leaving your hoodie in the backpack. it's about 12 degrees celsius right now, which is basically just a fancy way of saying you'll be shivering if you stand still for too long. the humidity is sitting at 57%, so it doesn't feel like a swamp, just a bit clingy.

Quick Answers



Q: Is this place worth visiting?
A: It depends on if you like quiet, slightly industrial towns with decent food. It's not a glitzy resort, but it's authentic and cheap.

Q: Is it expensive?
A: No, it's incredibly affordable. You can eat well for very little money compared to coastal tourist traps.

Q: Who would hate it here?
A: People looking for high-end luxury, nightlife, or constant sunshine will find it boring and damp.

Q: Best time to visit?
A: Aim for the dry season when the temperature is higher. Visiting in this damp, 12-degree weather is a bit of a slog.
