    I went to the Guatemala-Mexico border last year. What I thought was interesting was that Mexico treated the entering and exiting its state of Chiapas as if it was the country border checking out passports and stuff. Customs Mini. lol
    Edit: Also I loved the guest segment, I'm glad he put everything in sepia color to prevent confusion of where he was talking about.

    Mexico is not as dangerous as the media portrays. It's just like every other country. There are some bad areas, just like every country, but most places are safe. If you're not doing anything, you shouldn't be, you won't have any problems. Mexico is awesome, and everyone should visit.

      @moonshine8255 in fact I bet you have a higher chance of getting attacked in those places than in Mexico because the cartels aren't stupid. They don't mess with American tourists because it's bad for business. They aren't stupid. That just brings attention and problems. I used to walk around Reynosa, Mexico in the late 90s-2000s as a little kid and never had a single problem. 100s of times

    I enjoyed the guest speaker break with your editor! It's always cool to hear about a country from a resident. I had a good friend in high school who was in Canada on a one year educational exchange from Chiapas. He returned to Mexico for his last year of high school and had hoped to come back to Canada to attend university here and become a doctor and stay, but unfortunately for him his name was drawn for military service so he couldn't go. Every once in a while I check in on his mother's Facebook and it looks like he's doing well, highly ranked. I'm not sure how long service is in Mexico but we're in our mid 30s now and last I checked he was still serving, so at this point I have to assume he chose to just go with that career.

    Nice to see the editor that has made this delightful alphabetical journey possible - ¡muchos gracias!
    Related to Mexican borders - I appreciate that mostly in the name of science/conservation there’s a boating/wading legal crossing from Big Bend National park over El Río Bravo del Norte to reach the southern equivalent protected areas/small towns. (Certainly feels less than Grande there so I’ll just go with their name for it lol.). I didn’t actually end up doing it, but it’s a Beautiful area especially the canyons. I thought the tiny Texas Ocelot population was out in Big Bend since it seems like it would make a lot of sense for them to still make it out there. From non-scary personal experience there are black bears in Big Bend (one crossed the road well in front of us) so logically a small spotted cat could still make it to but when I recently looked it up… no. Oops. Always good to keep learning.

    So I just noticed something. With all of the "advices against all but essential travel to this state EXCEPT..." the exceptions are all touristic towns, since tourism is the main source of income for most parts of Mexico, they become a safe haven until they are not: truces with the local cartel can end anytime, very scary... for the people living there more than tourists.

    No, there aren´t a lot of walls on the southern border. And no, Mexico still doesn´t have a strict border between Mexico and Guatamala. There are, alternatively, many immigration checkpoints within the border zone both to the north and to the south.
    It´s illegal to participate in protests because the constitution states that foreigners cannot interfere in the country´s politics. But you won´t really get arrested just for that.

    Green-go is a folk etymology, one of many. The earliest attestation comes from Spain itself (which is why it's common across Spanish speaking AND português speaking countries) when foreigners who couldn't speak Iberian language well went to Spain the people there couldn't understand them so they thought they were speaking Greek (just like in English we say "it's all Greek to me" when we don't understand), so they called them "griego" and over time this word evolved into gringo. Like many linguistic cognates, this word has a different specific meaning depending on the place they're saying it, but it always has a connotation of 'outsider'
