| Description: | After walking 83km (my longest day on record) I arrived in the city of Oaxaca at about 2 in the morning. Stretching my back on a concrete bus stop bench, I was approached by a stranger in the night. Clothes wet, cut and bruised, he had just been beaten and robbed by the police. Seeing me there, he wanted to practice his English and I told him about the project. He turned out to be an awesome person, and invited me to stay with him at his friend´s house for the night. On the way home, he told me about his love, his passion, playing guitar, while also showing me where he had lost 2 fingers on his left hand in an accident at work the week before. Undanted, he was detirmined to learn to play with is right hand like his heros McCartney and Hendrix. What I love about Mexico isn´t so much the architecture, as seen in many of these photos, but in the hearts of the people who make my walk through this country truly memorable. |
