“On the corner in Matatlan, the small town my mom is from. I honestly don’t think this town even shows up on maps.” - alifeveryordinary

In light of the deluge of recently published travel stories on Mexico, some of which are paid for by the Calderón administration’s Tourism Board, it is worth taking a moment to appreciate what most of Mexico looks and feels like. The Mexico the vast majority of tourists will never see.

It may not show up on a map or a travel brochure, but it’s our home and that of our families, and that’s what really matters.
